"Beach Boys Co-Founder Brian Wilson Placed Under Conservatorship Due to Dementia"

The family of Brian Wilson, co-founder of the Beach Boys, is seeking to place him under a conservatorship due to his dementia following the recent death of his wife, Melinda. Court documents state that Wilson, 81, has "a major neurocognitive disorder" and is unable to provide for his own personal needs. The family has petitioned for the appointment of two conservators to ensure the well-being of Wilson and the children living at home. A hearing on the petition has been scheduled for April 30.
