Suspicious!!!
ATLANTA _ A 38-year-old man who died of gunshot wounds in Atlanta was the former son-in-law of soul singer James Brown.
Atlanta police said 38-year-old Darren Lumar suffered gunshot wounds to the middle of his chest and both ankles and wrists on Nov. 5 in the garage of his Buckhead townhouse. He died from his wounds within a day.
The case remains under investigation.
Lumar was married to Yamma Brown, one of James Brown's daughters. Brown, nicknamed the "Godfather of Soul," died in Atlanta's Crawford Long Hospital in December 2006.
Fulton County court records show the Lumars were divorced in October 2007. They had two children, ages 5 and 8.

Suspicious!!!
With wounds like that I'd be looking at the shooter being related to "organized" crime. That sounds like they wanted to send a "message".
That sounds very personal...Someone wanted that man to suffer...The horror just doesn't end....
Jb, You work in Altanta?
Sad ... and yes, sounds like a mob hit more than anything.
Horrifying and barbaric, that's the message I get. Whatever they think he did to deserve that (which no one does), they are worse for doing that to him. Only God knows what is going on in those heads. My condolences to anyone that cared about him.
