You need to hire a lawyer, open probate, get appointed and then open your own investigation into his death. This could be time consuming and costly, however, with guarantee as to any results.
I lost custody to my ex (who is not the father of the victim). He has a history of leaving his gun where it is easily accessable to the children. I have copies of emails that I sent him prior to the incident about how I was worried about the childrens safety. Leading up to his death , my depressed... View More

It's up to the DA to prosecute. You can sue, but unless these folks have money that won't get you anywhere. You can't do more that agitate peacefully.

It was settled out of court and my name wasn't mentioned, so I didn't get my share of the claim as his child. Am i able to get my share now, or is it too late?

Your share should have been held in trust. You need to look at the court records. Also check unclaimed funds. I suggest you contact a member of the Ky. Justice Association --they give free consults.
