More details to this question:
A dying friend gave me her son before she died and in her will she left everything to me and her son but after she died the famliy told me that there wasnt any will. Eight years later my friend son told me that he was there when the family ripped the will up and threatened him if he told he will physically harmed. Before my friend passed away she told me that she have gotten the will notarized by a family friend but after my friend passed I asked the family friend about the will and she claimed not to know anything about it. My friend son was also present at the time when the will was notarized. How can I pursue this after eight years?

Your situation requires more discussion than this forum can provide. Go see an attorney who handles estate cases. My guess is that there's not much that can be done, and that even if you did pursue something, getting any kind of favorable result would be very difficult and expensive, but go talk with someone just to give yourself some peace on the issue. Many attorneys will give you a free consultation.
