Doris Duke heiress claims banks fueled abusive, drug-addicted dad

This little rich girl has got a lot of problems.

Fifteen year old Georgia Inman — who’s poised to inherit half of tobacco heiress Doris Duke’s $60 million fortune — filed papers in Manhattan Surrogate’s Court Thursday claiming JPMorgan and Citibank, which each control half of the trust fund she shares with twin brother Walker Inman Jr., fueled years of abuse on the siblings by funneling money to her late heroin-addled dad Walker Sr. and ex-con stepmom Daralee.

“I lived this nightmare being abused by drug addicts while my real mom fought to save my brother and me,” Georgia, who now lives with her biological mother Daisha in Utah said in the 13-page affidavit.

“My brother and I lived through something real bad for a long time. I was treated worse than dogs, locked in a room. Living on the floor in our own waste,” she said. “That was probably the kindest thing that happened to us in our over 10 years of hell.

“All this was made possible because of a lot of money my dad and his attorney was getting from our trustees,” the teen heiress claimed.

Her dad, Walker Sr., received $160,000 a month from a separate, unfettered trust left by his philanthropist aunt Duke until he died of a methadone overdose alone in a Colorado motel room in 2010.

Then the money went to a Duke Endowment to be supervised by the banks and only handed over to the twins once they turned 21.

But Georgia claims a shady attorney working for her dad submitted a fake will causing her and Walker Jr. to lose “tens of millions.”

Georgia submitted the 358-point sworn statement Thursday, turning the tables on the bank trustees — who’ve in the past demanded that her ex-stripper mother, Daisha, account for every penny of the kids’ funds she spends.

“I feel like this is just one big scam with everyone making millions,” Georgia says, demanding: “I want an attorney. I’m not stupid.”

She calls the bank trustees “unethical” for allegedly giving the twins’ medical information to their abusive stepmom — who reportedly once stabbed brother Walker Jr.

Meanwhile she says the trustees bankrolled the duo’s bad habits without thinking of their vulnerable charges.

“My trustees knew my dad and my stepmother were lifelong drug addicts and alcoholics,” she wrote. “My trustees never checked on my brother and me, not one time.”

The twins’ dad and stepmom had the kids from ages 3 to 12, when Walker Sr. died and they went to live with Daisha.

“The legal system has never protected my brother and me,” Georgia rails in the court papers. She wants the judge to toss Citibank and JPMorgan as trustees.

But banks have in court filings painted the unemployed Daisha as a mooching mom, alleging she has cashed in $1 million of the inheritance, asked for money to fund a Las Vegas trip, and tried to spend more than half of the trusts on a Utah ranch for her and the kids.

“The children, in effect, are supporting her, or she is supporting herself using funds she withdraws from the children’s accounts or otherwise obtains via the children,” a Citibank VP wrote in a May filing.

But Georgia, admitting that her mom helped her pen the screed against then trustees, insists she is only looking after their best interests.

“All trust funds my mom gets [she] is spending on my brother and me for things we have asked for or need,” she claims.

A spokesman for the banks did not immediately comment.
