    He was excellent at one thing: conning and grifting. With all of Elvis’ talent, he would have been just as successful or even more so, without Parker.

      We all know that he took advantage of Elvis but Elvis was an adult man and should not allow such things. He lost many oportunities like to do a tour in Europe, to do good movies. Parker wanted the money for the Casino in Las Vegas and Elvis was sweating working to give him the 50% of his earnings.

    Gladys didn’t like colonel parker. If she had not died, so many things could have been different. But IF A BULL FROG HAD WINGS?

      Wrong!
      Fake “Colnel Tom Parker“
      is a controversial figure,known to have defrauded the King of Rock and Roll on several occasions for as much as $8 million.
      Parker also pocketed some $6 million on a deal for Elvis' music when the singer himself only received a bit less than $5 million for his entire music catalog!! Parker is definitely roasting in Hell with lying ass widow Lorraine!! Elvis should have hired a lawyer to go over Parker’s crooked accounting books!! A simple audit would have gotten his greedy ass deported and his assets frozen!!
      Late former “Memphis Mafia” member Sonny West claims , Parker had powerful government people in his corner like former President LBJ!
      Parker sold Elvis’s entire music catalog back to RCA records, for a measly $3 Million!! Behind Elvis’s back!!
      Cheating the Presley estate out of hundreds of Millions of dollars in royalties!!
      Parker kept using Elvis like an ATM card!! Parker was also instrumental in Elvis’s drug problems!! That caused his life to end early at 42 years old!!
      Joe Esposito was a leech and “yes man” that never told Elvis “NO!!”
      Esposito was also one of the people that “sanitized” Elvis’s bathroom and bedroom with help by the maid, to conceal all the illegal drugs prescribed by “Dr. Nick!”
      Before they called the paramedics, the night Elvis died! His bedroom and bathroom should have been treated as a crime scene! Even his autopsy was falsified!! Make no mistake!! Elvis is dead!
      And Parker knew he was worth more dead than alive!! He even had the audacity to show up at Elvis funeral in a Hawaiian shirt?! He tricked Vernon Presley into signing a new contract, giving him power of attorney over Elvis’s entire estate!
      Rot In Hell, you fat greedy pig!!

      Yes Tom Parker was the big Snowman that really didn't care about no body but his own self. I'm like Glady I couldn't stand Parker either. Elvis had to work 2 shows a night to get Parker out of gambling depths. Parker didn't care about Elvis poor Elvis.God bless his soul.❤🙏⚡👍

    I read somewhere that he left the Netherlands partly because he was a suspect in the murder of a woman.

    He was a POS it’s ashamed that he took advantage of Elvis with all his poor movie decisions, the debt he owed to the Vegas casino and how he never allowed Elvis too go overseas. I believe Elvis would of lived a lot longer had this con man never stepped foot in his life, also he was discharged from the army for being a psychopath. Disgusting horrible man who even After Elvis passing he still wanted to take advantage of Elvis money and it went to court and was called out on all his BS and the amount he was taken from Elvis and that he wasn’t a Col Tom or Parker.

    If he died at age 87,,....and Elvis died at 42,....why is the narrator saying he outlived his only client(Elvis)by 2 decades ??..What am I missing??

      Maybe re-watch the documentary again as I don’t think you understand. I’ve had to watch something more than once before now to understand.

      He did serve in the army. I think that since he served in the American army he was then a American citizen.
