Renowned actor and filmmaker Tyler Perry was touched by 93-year-old Josephine Wright’s fight against an investment group trying to seize control of her property.
Perry stepped in and offered to help buy Wright a new home after learning she was being pushed out of her family home in July. Wright has been in a legal battle with Bailey Point Investment Group, who went after purchasing her property in Hilton Head upon launching a 29-acre project on the land behind her home, according to TMZ. The property has been in Wright’s family since the Civil War era.
The 93-year-old said that when she turned down the offer to let the investment group purchase her property, she was met with hostility, having her tires slashed, trash thrown on her property, and a snake hung from one of her windows, according to WSAV.
