Last year actor John Amos' was the subject of an elder abuse investigation after his daughter, Shannon Amos, accused her brother, K.C. Amos, of not properly caring for their father. John accused Shannon of being the actual abuser and demanded to be left in his son's care, and the case was closed [click here if you missed that].
Now the elder abuse investigation has been re-opened...
From TMZ
Cops are looking into allegations of neglect regarding the care of "Good Times" star John Amos and the investigation is just getting started ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement sources tell us a case here in Los Angeles has been opened to look into claims hurled by Amos' daughter, Shannon, who we're told recently called Adult Protective Services to allege her father was battling health issues ... and her brother, K.C., wasn't getting him proper care.
Our sources say APS took a report based on what she claimed and then sent the report over to the LAPD ... which then launched an investigation.
We're told cops are familiar with all the back-and-forth claims between Shannon and K.C. -- a lot of the bad blood between John's kids has been widely publicized -- but the investigation will focus on these new allegations, specifically.
There's also this development ... TMZ has learned the beloved actor was recently in the hospital, although we were told it was just for a routine checkup and that nothing serious was wrong with him. We even got on the phone briefly with John, who assured us he was fine.
It's unclear if cops are aware of the hospital visit, or if it is in any way tied to Shannon's allegations -- in any case, John and his rep have repeatedly denied any kind of neglect claims.

He's gonna end up with a guardian like Wendy.
If the daughter is asking for help. Chances are he needs it. The son seems more like a hang out buddy than a caregiver.
Sounds like who wants control of the residuals from daily "Good Times" reruns.
The son lives vicariously through the father. He likes to flaunt around that John Amos is America's TV father and uses that to get perks and praise. He's probably drained his father's bank account every month and when he dies, mysteriously he'll probably get everything. This is sad and when you can't trust your own kids, who can you trust.
@10:53am...exactly!!! That damn son is full of scams. I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt until I saw him hold live streams all day long on TikTok exploiting his poor Dad.
