Maine-educated Son Of Cher Painted By Mom As A Virtual Zombie Amid NH Criminal Cases

Emmy-winning singer Cher is begging a judge to appoint an adult to supervise her ‘drug-addicted, gravely disabled’ son, who is facing charges in New Hampshire.

Elijah Allman, 49, is locked up in a New Hampshire psych ward awaiting court action on several criminal allegations against him.

Allman was arrested twice last month in New Hampshire, first in Windham and then in Concord on charges including burglary and trespassing.

He allegedly broke into a Windham house, sat down in the living room and smoked a cigarette.

Allman also was charged with causing a disturbance at a Concord prep school.

Though he lives in California and has no known connections to New Hampshire, Allman is familiar with the area, having attended the Hyde School in Bath, Maine, from which he graduated in 1994.

The legendary “Got You Babe” singer, 79, wants a California court to appoint a conservator to curb what she describes as her son’s drug use, out-of-control spending and radically dangerous behavior.

Court documents obtained by People magazine quote Cher as alleging Allman is “gravely disabled” and unable to manage his finances or avoid dangerous situations.

Allman’s father is famous rock musician Gregg Allman, who was once married to Cher of Sonny & Cher fame.

Allman was born during the second year of the famous Cher/Gregg Allman four-year marriage, which was his father’s third of seven trips to the altar.

Elijah attended the Hyde School in Bath, Maine, graduating in 1994.

He has said he began taking drugs at age 11 and battled heroin addiction for years.
