BREAKING!! Martin Luther King’s Youngest Son, Dexter Scott King Dies From Prostate Cancer

Published

on

Dexter Scott King, the youngest son of activist Martin Luther King Jr., has been confirmed to have passed away after battling prostate cancer.

The King Center announced his death on Monday, January 22. Dexter’s wife, Leah Weber King, shared that he passed away peacefully in his sleep at home in Malibu.

Dexter is the second child of MLK to have died since their father was assassinated in 1968.

Yolanda King was the first, passing away in 2007 due to complications from ovarian cancer and other ailments. The remaining living children are Martin Luther King III (the eldest) and Bernice King (the youngest).

Dexter who died at the age of 62, continued his father’s legacy in fighting for civil rights into the 21st century, but he was notable for confronting James Earl Ray, the man convicted and imprisoned for actually assassinating Dr. King. He asked him point blank if he did it, only to receive a “no.”

Dexter said he believed James at the time, and floated conspiracy theories about who really orchestrated his father’s murder, suggesting the U.S government was involved.

He also portrayed his dad in a 2002 TV movie, ‘The Rosa Parks Story’. His resemblance to Dr. King was something that was always talked about.
