Family fight over MLK Bible inches toward resolution
c. 2014 Religion News Service
(RNS) A Georgia judge on Wednesday (Feb. 19) ordered the Rev. Martin Luther King’s daughter to turn over her father’s Bible and Nobel Peace Prize medal for safekeeping until a final decision about their ownership can be made.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney said the medal and King’s traveling Bible—used by President Obama at his 2013 inaugural—would be placed in a safe deposit box and he would keep the keys as a King family squabble inched closer to resolution.
