"Beach Boys' Brian Wilson's Family Seeks Conservatorship Amid Dementia"

Brian Wilson's business manager and longtime publicist have filed a petition to become his conservators, citing his "major neurocognitive disorder" and need for assistance following the death of his wife, Melinda Ledbetter. The petition states that Wilson is unable to care for himself and that his representatives have a close relationship with him. The move aims to ensure that there will be no extreme changes to the household and that Wilson and his children living at home will be taken care of. This comes decades after Wilson was under the close supervision of controversial psychologist Eugene Landy, who ultimately took control of the singer's life and work before being barred from any contact with Wilson by his family.
