Jacko's heartbroken sister La Toya vows to prove star's death was foul play

MICHAEL Jackson's heartbroken sister La Toya last night sensationally insisted the King of Pop was MURDERED for his £1 billion fortune.

SPECIAL BOND: La Toya was closest of all to Michael but says plotters kept him from family
SPECIAL BOND: La Toya was closest of all to Michael but says plotters kept him from family

And the former Playboy model told the News of the World: "I KNOW who did it."

In an astonishing exclusive interview, La Toya, 53, reveals secret new facts about the 50-year-old superstar's sudden death, drugs found in his body and a $2million stash of cash and jewels that has gone missing.

She also speaks movingly about Jacko's final resting place and tells how his children are struggling with their grief. La Toya said: "We don't think just one person was involved in the murder. It was a conspiracy to get Michael's money."

La Toya bombshell

  • They got hiim hooked on drugs
  • He was lonely and vulnerable
  • Didn't want to perform in London
  • I ordered second autopsy on his body
  • $2m cash missing from his mansion

Grief-torn La Toya last night dramatically vowed revenge on the people she claims MURDERED her brother Michael.

And she vowed: "I know who did it and I won't rest until I nail them!"

La Toya's astonishing revelations come just two days after the chief of Los Angeles police admitted they were investigating Jacko's death as possible homicide.

In a moving exclusive four-hour interview with the News of the World, grieving La Toya - the closest person to Michael from the whole tight-knit Jackson clan - revealed she and the family are convinced her brother's apparent drugs overdose was "foul play" by a shadowy group out to get their hands on his £1 billion fortune.

"Michael WAS murdered," declared La Toya, 53. "And we don't think just one person was involved. Rather, it was a conspiracy of people. I feel it was all about money. Michael was worth well over a billion in music publishing assets and somebody killed him for that. He was worth more dead than alive."

As she posed a series of vital questions about 50-year-old Jacko's sudden death 17 days ago at his rented mansion in Los Angeles, La Toya said the pop icon was:

  • FED a series of addictive drugs to keep him submissive and controlled.
  • KEPT from his family by manipulative people who blocked their visits.
  • WORKED to exhaustion even though he DIDN'T want to do the gruelling string of 50 shows due to start at London's O2 arena tomorrow.
  • ROBBED of TWO MILLION in cash and gems as he lay dying.

Because of her close bond with Michael, La Toya was chosen by the family to sign the death certificate. Now the first step in her battle for justice is underway, with the second, independent, autopsy she ordered.

The official coroner's report is not due for two weeks but La Toya already knows the results of the family's own toxicology tests on the body and said: "I think everyone will be surprised when the results come out.

"I can't discuss that any further because of the ongoing police investigation. But I can say newspaper reports that there was methadone in his body are inacuurate.

"He had many needle marks on his neck and on his arms, and more about those will emerge in the next few weeks. But nothing has changed my mind that this was murder and I won't give up until I find out what killed my brother.

"A couple of years ago Michael told me he was worried that people were out to get him. He said, 'They're gonna kill me for my publishing. They want my catalogues and they're gonna kill me for these.'

"I knew something terrible was going to happen."

Brushing her long dark hair back from her face - features that closely resemble her tragic brother's - soft-spoken La Toya added: "Michael was being inappropriately treated by people who got him hooked on drugs.

"I can't say who I believe is responsible as I don't want to jeopardise the police investigation. But not everybody had Michael's best interests at heart. A month ago I felt Michael was going to die before he did his London concerts.

"I felt it would be foul play. I felt he'd never make the show."

La Toya claimed those plotting against her brother deliberately cut him off to become "the loneliest man in the world".

She told us: "They tried to keep the family away at all times, even my dad.

"Michael was being controlled. No one could get through to him.

"We wanted to know why we were being kept away and my father Joe was always trying to get to see him. He tried so hard to be there for Michael. He was seen as a threat but he was trying to help. And if you keep the family away, you can conquer. It's like they say, divide and conquer."

La Toya also claimed millions of dollars in cash and jewels disappeared from Jackson's house the day he died.

She said: "Michael always had cash in his homes, usually around $2 million (£1.2 million) which he used to pay out on things. People said he wasn't wealthy, but Michael always had money with him.

"When I went to the house later that day there was NO cash or jewellery. So many people had been through that house before I got there. Someone went in there and did a good job. It was very strange."

Questions still surround events leading up to Jackson's death at the £5 million house on North Carolwood Drive in Holmby Hills on June 25. The singer collapsed around midday and his staff made the 911 emergency call at 12.22pm.

And La Toya described the harrowing scenes she found later that night inside the room where her brother died - strewn with oxygen flasks and empty pill bottles.

She told us: "The police had already taken an oxygen tank which was beside the bed. On top of the sheets there was still an oxygen mask. Standing beside the bed was a stand for an intravenous drip. I was told the cops had taken the bag of liquid from it.

"Behind I saw three oxygen tanks in the corner of the room.

"There was an empty pill box on a cabinet. We also found loads of empty oxygen tanks in the garage of the house." Jackson was found to be on a potentially lethal cocktail of drugs when he died, with twice-a-day injections of morphine-related painkiller Demerol and doses of powerful narcotic Dilaudid.

He was also taking twice-daily jabs of painkiller Vistaril, anxiety drug Xanax, anti-depressants Prozac and Zoloft, plus anti-indigestion drug Prilosec.

Cops removed two dustbin bags-full of prescription drugs from the house.

But La Toya insisted vegetarian Jacko had told her he was on a six-month DETOX.

And the last time they'd met, at 60th wedding anniversary celebrations for their parents in a Beverly Hills curry house three weeks before his death, the singer seemed strong and healthy to his sister.

She said: "Michael was fit, happy and enjoyed every minute of it. Sure he was thin, but Michael was always thin. From my understanding, he was very healthy.

"When I arrived Michael was there standing by the door greeting people, and he said to me, 'You look fabulous.'

"It was a wonderful time. When he left we embraced each other and he said, 'Thanks for a nice time. We have to do this again in Vegas.'

"He went to the door, and as he got into the vehicle he looked back and waved goodbye. It's sad to think that was the last time I saw my baby brother."

La Toya claimed that he was then wiped out by the punishing rehearsal schedule for the London shows. In the last two days before his death, the Thriller star had performed a dress rehearsal and then a full day's run-through and strategy session. But La Toya insists that in reality Michael wanted to GIVE UP music.

"He really wanted to be a movie director," she said. "He was doing everything to make that happen. He had an idea do a horror film called Thriller. He designed the poster for it already.

"He didn't want to do 50 shows, he only wanted to do 10. But he was pushed. And Michael being Michael didn't want to let down his fans.

"But even his daughter Paris said, 'They worked Daddy too hard.' Somebody that fragile can't keep going on like that." La Toya revealed she is also mystified by the sacking of Michael's entire staff just HOURS after his death.

She said the family found out when they went back to the house at 11.30pm to claim the star's belongings. La Toya added: "We were told all the guys loyal to Michael had been fired. I couldn't work it out."

Finally La Toya revealed how the tragedy had drawn the Jacksons closer together.

"This has united the family," she said. "We're all in pain and suffering the loss of Michael. . . but we're also determined to get to the bottom of what happened to him.

"He was taken from us too soon. Michael didn't have to die."

That is sad I've had many losses in my life friends and family and paid my last respects for each of them. So it hurts to much to know your last goobye's with them it's just so sad. Michael was a beautiful soul of pure love so he didn't deserve that treatment and he should of been a director it really would of been good at it. He's so awesome with people and with imagination of of his going 24/7 all the time.So he's just gone to soon I agree.

LaToya you are right.
Everything you have said that Micheal said to you is true. I had a spiritual visitation from him on the day of his memorial. I desired so much to feel his present. He did say the whole circle had him pegged. He said he had moved around so many places. His spirit transmitted thoughts to me at a very speedy rate, to all who dont understand I will use the word talk. He said that some people thought he was crazy when he said that they were out to kill him. He said they was not going to stop until they got him. He took so much medicine because he thought he needed it. hE SAID HE REALLY REALLY DID NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT HE WAS DOING WAS WRONG, HE JUST WANTED TO KEEP HIMSELF GOING.AND LOOKED AT HIS BODY AS A MACHINE. hE SAID HE NEVER MEANT TO HARM HIS BODY. He said his death was an accident, he was given an extra amount of regularly used medication by IV.

LaToya::::::::::
I hope you get to read this. I was up late the other night, crying for the kids, Crying to the LORD JESUS CHRIST for the Vultures to be stopped, taking the kids money. Their futures, their DESTINIES. I believe the Spirit of the LORD was praying for me. I believed what some of them were trying to PROJECT of Micheal. But when I started "INterceding for the CHILDREN< I all of a sudden started believing what your saying, Michael was set-up for destruction. Their IS a CONSPIRACY of people who Planned Michael's Death for HIs money. I prayed quickly that God, who sees all and knows the hearts of all men, will be revealed swiftely before the money is all gone from the kids.Maybe GOD will not let them sleep or rest until they the truth, repent of their sinful ways. My prayers are with you LaToya. and my heart crys out for the Children. That was my heart,
'What about the children. Please get this to LaToya Jackson. I believe I'ts important. God changed my heart to believing poor foolish Michael on drugs to somebody planned his death. I call upon God to make this known since he knows the hearts of ALL MEN>Please get this to LaToya, I believe it's suppose to be an encouragment to her. Plus I cried out to God for Michaels children as if they were my own, which they are not. Sincerely, Truthfully Diana Flores

HOW BLUDY AMAZING.... ALL YOU PEOPLE JUST HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS DON'T YOU'S!!???
NOBODY IS 'GUILTY' UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY BY THE LAW OF THE LAND.....ALTERNATIVELY, "IF" THERE IS SOMEONE OR MORE OUT THERE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEATH OF M.J THEN IT'S THEIR CONCIENCE THAT WILL IMPRISON THEM ALL THE DAYS OF THEIR LIVES, IF THEYRE NEVER BROUGHT TO JUSTICE & LETS BE OPEN-MINDED...THIS IS ONLY IF 'FOUL PLAY' IS IN THE EQUATION.
DONT GET ME WRONG... I ABSOLUTELY ADORED M.J & I WANT TRUTH AS MUCH AS HIS MOTHER DOES...BOTTOM LINE...
THERE ARE MANY EVIDENT TRACKS THAT APPEAR HOMICIDAL...... &
THERE ARE MANY EVIDENT TRACKS THAT APPEAR DRUG ADDICT....
NOW, ON WHAT EXPERTISE GIVE YOU & I THE WISDOM TO JUDGE A CASE BASED ON THOSE TWO???
WE ARE NOT GOD, SO LET'S JUST STEP ASIDE FOR A WHILE & LET GOD DO WHAT WE CAN'T...WE DESERVE CLOSURE IN THE NAME OF TRUTH & HONOUR.

Um...Janet was the closest to Michael not La Toya...but all in all...the truth will always come out in due time...

By hawtstuff.. Posted July 19 2009 at 5:06 PM.

When Jesus was being crusified by those wicked men he said "forgive them father for they know not what they have done."

My family and I do express our condolence to the Jackson family. Remember that narrow and cramp is the road leading to everlasting life. Please follow that road, you will find Micheal there!

Everyone in America knows that LaToya is a NUT case, she is loney, whatever she says have to be taken with a pinch of salt. She hasn't a clue what she is talking about. She is a "has been", Just ignore her she is seeking publicity.

By Faqi.. Posted July 19 2009 at 12:38 AM.

LATOYA, I ALWAYS WATCH THE MORNING NEWS. WHEN I LOOKED UP, THERE WAS MICHAEL DOING HIS STANDUP DANCE READY TO DO HIS MOONWALK. WHEN I HEARD THAT MICHAEL HAD DIED, I BROKE DOWN IN TEARS. I COULD NOT REMEMBER WHEN I STOP CRYING. I'M 5O YEARS OLD GROWING UP WITH THE JACKSON'S CLAN. I KNEW MICHEAL DID NOT WANT TO GO ON THAT TOUR, WHEN HE MADE THAT LAST VIDEO. LATOYA, BEFORE MJ PAST AWAY, 2 DAYS BEFORE HIS DEATH, I WAS LAYING DOWN, HAVING THIS PAIN IN MY CHEST, THAT I HAVE NEVER, EVER HAD BEFORE. LIKE I WAS HAVING A HEART ATTACK. I PRAY TO THE LORD, TO TAKE THIS PAIN AWAY. WHEN I WOKE UP THE NEXT MORNING, THE PAIN WAS GONE. 2 DAYS LATER, MJ, FARRAH FACETT, AND ED MCMAN HAD PASSED AWAY. IF I WAS THERE WITH YOU, WE BOTH WOULD INVESTIGATE. I PRAY THAT YOU'LL WILL GET SOME CLOSER ON MJ'S DEATH. MJ WAS MY HEART. GO WITH GOD, AND GOD BLESS.

I really hope Jackson's murders will be caught and punished soonest possible. Michael, RIP.

By Mistery Person.. Posted July 18 2009 at 9:09 AM.

I believe some of what La Toya says is true - I think he was surrounded by opportunists who had some intent to keep him away from his family and friends and go after his assets - however, I don't think it happened to the extent that she's implying. Publishing rights aren't such ready assets as real & personal property, investments and actual cash - and Michael had a lot of debt against those things.

I also agree with her on the fact that there were also physicians who were beyond negligent, and grossly irresponsible writing prescriptions. Zoloft AND Prozac? Nobody should be on two SRIs at the same time. Not to mention the allegations about much stronger medications at dangerous dosages! Here in the US, some doctors will write prescriptions like candy! There definitely needs to be more responsibility there.

Mentioning Prilosec though - I doubt that was relevant! It's an antacid and it's available w/o prescription as Prilosec OTC in the US or Zanprol in the UK.

But, I think La Toya has proven herself an opportunist to some extent trying to sensationalize things once again. I think she definitely loved her brother, but I question her story because I also question her motivations to start speaking up now.

our heart's gose out to the jackson family and his babies sorry for the lost of your loved one we watched michael and enjoyed most of his music all we can do now is pray for the jackson family and kathrine dont listen to the trash on the internate or any where else none of us are perfect or we would not be here jesus is the only one who is perfect we have to pray daily and keep the spirit of our lord jesus alive please tell michael babies for us there not a lone as there dad would say

It was very sad 2 hear michael had died he was a great singer no1 will ever 4 get him......

his family look like they are proper distrote over his deaf ........

By Jessica Taylor.. Posted July 16 2009 at 9:33 AM.

I tried to post a sensible comment. But i guess you all just want foolishness.
You all need to leave Michael and his family "ALONE". It's really not your business. I would not judge someone i do know let alone someone i don't know personally.
Some say MJ was on drugs, he was stressed, he was lonely. Truth of the matter is, God called hiim home and it was time for him to go. If someone gets shot and killed by a bullet, it's not that bullet that killed hiim, it was his time to go and that was the way it was planned. (Go to Church people), know that God has a blueprint of our lives from before we were created. It's already maped out.
Show some respect for his soul, and his family. It's bad enough they took crap about their brother while he was alive. Let it rest, let him (MJ) rest.

By leticia.. Posted July 16 2009 at 2:50 AM.

his performances was gorgeous. he was beautiful, sexy and special. nobody could be as him. his death make me sad and when i listening his music i crying. hope that truth about his death will come out soon . god bless you michael

By Vinda .. Posted July 15 2009 at 3:13 AM.

Hey people,,,
La Toya has always been the one Jackson that has always stood up and said her mind, watch her interviews throughout the years on youtube before you form an opinion on her character!!In February she spoke about Micheal on both Richard and Judy (U.K) and Ryan Tubridy (Ireland)!!Watch these videos, only four months before Micheal's death!and see how she speaks of him!
If she thinks that Micheal's death was foul play then i believe her!!

A second case like this: Mexican Diva María Felix were push apart of her family (some say she didnt want to be with them), surrounded by body guards whose had keep her far away from Media and of her family, inmediatly she died alone in her bed and in a fast movement a rare Last-Will appeared giving her entire fortune (in art and properties, and maybe jewels too) to a new young friend who was not her husband. Inmediatly he took all, and the body of Maria were taken out of her tumb for a second examination and is being said that now not even her body is in the tumb. Well, in the last video of Maria Felix she seems to be afraid of something, walking in the middle of the body guards whose almost push her to walk. It is what I can tell becasue it is what I felt wheh I saw it. The same I felt in one of the last videos of Michael jackson, he was watching to the man who was recording but, to my personal view and extra-official point of view he was afraid of something, he was far away of his family, using drugs and maybe the killers and drugs dealers wont give him a time for a chance to change his mind and it was the right fast moment to kill him to them.
I was in Acapulco end of last year (2008) and Michael Jackson was in Acapulco, Mexico with mexican friends,he was with no make up and I believe he was not sick of anything;this picture were shown in a local magazine.
Is there a powerfull group killing people for money?

i was really sad when michael jackson dies because i loved his music it was the best music i had ever heard and when i was waatching the michael jackson memorial service i was crying because i would hate to lose my dad at the age of 7 or 11 or 12 i feel bad for the jackson family and hope you get the true story

By Sad person.. Posted July 14 2009 at 8:00 PM.

Something definitely does not add up here. In 2005, Access Hollywood did a piece on Jackson while he was staying near Dublin, Ireland. They spoke of how all the food eaten was organic, there was walking, horseback riding and other forms of exercise. They discussed planning for a BIG tour. MJ was a vegetarian since way back in the 1980s (hence his slimness); it also appears he ate organic and he's commented that he ate a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables - this means raw - which is healthier. His sister said he was detoxing. Contrary to the "rehab" stories, in the health community, this is getting rid of toxins in the body that accumulate through additives in our food supply. Four years to get his health back....and a drug addict? Sorry, can't reconcile that.

By wtf.. Posted July 14 2009 at 3:23 PM.

Mj wasn't murdered nor did he die of drugs. He died of natural causes. This was a very unhealthy 50 year old man with with many health problems including lupus and anorexia. When you combine all the stress with along with the health problems you will understand why he went into cardiac arrest. It had nothing to do with drugs or none of that nonsense the media is reporting. the toxicology reports will be out in 1 week so you guys will see

By pauline.. Posted July 14 2009 at 5:10 AM.

to taremekedzwa mabhiza MJ did not turn his skin white, lot of people,but mostly black people have vitiligo,look it up, learn about it, that is the only why commments like yours will stop. Also go to google images to see what it looks like. there you can also find pics of mj with the white spots that took over his body. To everyone else, please find an read the 1994 GQ article on mj case and then spread the word or at least be informed.

By cw.. Posted July 14 2009 at 1:33 AM.

I have always thought MJ's talent was so mesmerizing and entertaining. I would love to see his children perform, BUT only if the kids want to. I don't think Joe Jackson should push them into showbiz. Wouldn't it be great to see his children on stage though. My biggest question today is... are those children really his blood? Several people don't think they are. I think Prince 1 & Paris look like the dermo Dr. Look at the shape of their ears and nose, MJ's ears are small and dainty. I still support the Jackson's on any quest they go!!!

By Tina Moody.. Posted July 14 2009 at 12:46 AM.

Ok is Joe Jackson SERIOUS? this guy needs to leave his grandkids alone...touring in 2010?? this is exactly what Micheal didnt want for them...explotation... That Man needs to take a step back...way way back!

By mel.. Posted July 13 2009 at 11:33 PM.

Oh my! Some of the comments here are very hurtful. I have to agree with La Toya and also believe that Michael was surrounded by "jackels" of the worst kind and that they took his life...I hope for the family to have closure they arrest all those involved. RIP Michael Jackson..and your family are in my prayers.

By Liesel.. Posted July 13 2009 at 11:12 PM.

It is hard to believe it is that much money missing, the first thing you do is secure the home, the police would not have let anyone take anything from the home after they arrived, is she trying to say they took something. Once 911 was called, the police would have arrived soon after they found out it was Michael Jackson. a few things may have been taken, but 2 million would have taken a little bit to remove.

By Celeb Drama.. Posted July 13 2009 at 10:18 PM.

You are all right.



These are the things that happen when a family is more concerned about their image as opposed to storming the place and physically removing Michael from that environment and kicking the enablers out. Refusing to take decisive action is also a form of enabling.


I would imagine the family has plenty of guilt and grief over what they should have done.


In any event, La Toya is on the right track, if the coroner and LAPD agree that the death was accidental, then I'll know it's a cover up. Nothing is concealled that will not be revealled.

i am so sorry for his death. his music was great and unique.

By lemi.. Posted July 13 2009 at 9:22 PM.

micheal you was great but you didn't see god like your creater when he creat you,you was black and you turned your skin to white.

**********

Actually, there is plenty of conspiracy surrounding MJ. There’s a letter from President Reagan to MJ today at usnews. But who was lurking in the background? None other than that Zionist creep, chimp Sr. And who can forget the Cleveland School shootings when MJ visited the kids? Gee, who was prez then and instituted the beginning of the use of mass shootings as a cover for gun grabs using drug addled killers? At first, I thought MJ was part of it, but reading his own words in his book "Dancing the Dream" which can be found online, I realize he was used by the usual suspects.

**********

By wtf.. Posted July 13 2009 at 7:13 PM.

**********

Think his sister is right. When I and my friends heard about his death, the first thought was: Who would benefit from MJ's death? Follow the money. Who had insurance policies on Jackson. Not the one he would have on himself for his family, etc. But who, unrelated, would benefit, and for how much. Might be surprised. In answer to this, someone had posted that "There was a very large insurance policy obtained on MJ for the concert tour and the same company was footing the bill for the Dr. who was in the house when he died." Definitely rates a hmmm... Also, wonder if they double checked his lungs for burst blood vessels. MJ had written of having an ailment similar to pleurisy when he first started out, and a blood vessel collapsing where he could not breathe. Could the doctors have misdiagnosed the situation and given the wrong thing? Or did the doctors know and purposely give the wrong drugs? Also check out the Uri Geller connection since he's worked with the Mossad and Geller was the one who suggested Jackson do the disastrous Bashir interview. Plus, check out who else had MJ's ear; who was feeding him what.

Michael Jackson has died a tragic death
and all of these rumors can not be helping the rest of the family.
think of his kids.
His family should be allowed to grieve
for their beloved son and brother
i have grown up listening to MJ and find it disturbing that now he is dead people are bringing up these awful rumors.
Michael will be remembered for his music and charity work.

By David.. Posted July 13 2009 at 6:15 PM.

They took Brittany away from her drug handler and she seems to be doing better. The 50 concert tour seems to be rigorous, it certainly would up the receivables. I would look into how it was financed and insured. Was it insured unconventionally with CDS.

By Ransome.. Posted July 13 2009 at 4:59 PM.

The best of Michael Jackson was dead by the beginning of the 1990s. Even if LaToya's "conspiracy" theory holds any weight, I have to ask whether or not it was outright murder or a "mercy" killing. The poor man was hopelessly addicted to high quantities of really dangerous drugs.

By POSH.. Posted July 13 2009 at 3:51 PM.

Also i think ppl should think abput have they lost a brother??, maybe a son?? or a father if so you know how it feels now think about if you read all this on the internet about your special loved one that the people commenting dont know anything about that person and really it has nothing what so ever to do with them i thnk if you have something bad to say about someone who is dead then god help you in life and what a great person you must be..

By alex.. Posted July 13 2009 at 3:40 PM.

and how would ppl know this reffering to the below comment, to be quite honest i dont think you know the inns and outs YOU are not a family feind relative, you more than likley never saw him in your life so how you can come on a website and comment like that about someone who you know as much as a stranger on the bus is beyond me!! at the end of the day someone a very famous man has died and i think ppl should be praying he rests in peace he spent his whole life entertaining his fans and this is how he gets treated when hes dead!! unbelevable!

By alex.. Posted July 13 2009 at 3:02 PM.

I must ask myself, where were all the Jacksons who love Michael and ALL HIS MONEY when he was killing himself with drugs?

Now to blame it on his "hangers on" is rediculous; they should have intervened years ago.

I feel very bad that Joe Jackson may have influence over the three children; what they need is a normal childhood and lots of love and attention, not a show biz career.

By Diane Carol.. Posted July 13 2009 at 1:48 PM.

All the Jacksons except Janet signed a statement that they did not do an intervention in 2007. THAT'S why he died. His family didn't want his drug issues public, and covered them up for years, didn't intervene, and now he's DEAD. There is NO conspiracy.

By Deb.. Posted July 13 2009 at 2:14 PM.

Very intresting comment from you all,coming from a close family ,i thing that what the Jacksons displayed on the memorial day wasnt the reality of this family, MJ was in serious trouble with dealing with all the scandals, and being let down by the system, a single parent with three kids and a huge career ,why didnt any of his sibling see this coming?
If the family was so close ,why wasnt a family member at his home when all this happen?
Goodluck Latoya with this conspiracy theory, i hope it dosent last as long as Diana (the princess of the People, miss you) RIP

"That poor, sick, sad, little man is beyond pain and exploitation now. "

Actually No he is not, this article is one of many as was the channel for"What happened program"
The Michael jackson cash cow continues, poor man.
Now it his childrens turn.

i think someone needs to stop their dad hes making his childern go on tour they dont need that right now....nor ever let them kids grown normal

By glenda keeton.. Posted July 13 2009 at 1:00 PM.

Sorry dear, he was killed by you and your brothers. His loneliness and the sadness gives to have a family like that. Do not search in another site or people, search inside you and your brothers. God takes care of Michael.

By jose .. Posted July 13 2009 at 11:52 AM.

Get with the program.They will be talking about him for a long time.There are many unresolved issues.

By Janice.. Posted July 13 2009 at 7:58 AM.

I'm sad that MR. Michael Jackson is gone. Everyone assumes a lot, ( I'M GUILTY AS WELL ). But two things you have to say about Michael, he was an entertainer, and you know a wonderful father. His children needs our prayers that they will be raised right. Just by watching them you can tell they are very well grounded. RIP Michael

By mary.. Posted July 13 2009 at 7:43 AM.


All the negative comments regarding Michael Jackson are folks who are just hating on him.Those individuals more than likely have no creativity, no talent, nor the ability to love and give of themselves to the entire world as he did. The young man had been working since the age of five. He had every right to be tired. He earned and deserves the title of the "greatest entertainer that ever lived" He touched so many through his music and therefore he will live forever more in the hearts of millions of people around the world. I thank GOD for allowing me in my lifetime to be touched and have the opportunity to experience Michael Jackson. My heart goes out to his children & family. We love you Michael!

By Dan B.. Posted July 13 2009 at 5:11 AM.

Here we go again, another grass knoll and 2nd gun conspiracy just like, JFK! Jeez, La Toya did you thing the families total denial of Michael abusing prescription drugs, might be the cause? The whole family from Joe Jackson to La Toya were in denial of his over-the-top drug use and now that it is too late, now they want to blame the boogyman. The time to help Michael was years ago when he was having problems but oh, the Jacksons were to involved in their screwed up lives, they didn't have the time or day to help Michael.

By Jerry.. Posted July 13 2009 at 3:15 AM.

what a load of crapp this woman talks,the man took drugs.

By brian deakin.. Posted July 13 2009 at 3:36 AM.

What the ?

Let him go people.

That poor, sick, sad, little man is beyond pain and exploitation now.

He was NOT the greatest artist of all time, he was a singer who had a following.

He was not some raging monster, he had his own problems, and he will NOW be paying for ALL of his sins , as we all will pay for our own, sooner or later.

I don't think that the man ever had any chance of being "normal", I pitied him when he was alive, I pity him and his family now more than ever.

Let him go, he's gone now forever.

By Steve J.. Posted July 13 2009 at 3:45 AM.

Here we go in good and typical victimhood fashion,
"someone else did it", not MJ, who abused drugs on his own accord. Step off and fess up to the fact that he was an addict, no fault of anyone else but his. Besides, what money would he be murdered for??? He was hundreds of millions in debt. Go figure these weirdos. Take responsability for once.

By Nico.. Posted July 13 2009 at 2:40 AM.

I really miss him evendo i just be his fans its so bad for me to heard this news.He is a star in the world hope god willl show us the true soon coz devil never wins angel always wins i trust michael innocent they will pay for all they did to him amin.

By dizto.. Posted July 13 2009 at 2:08 AM.

The Jackson family has always been hanging on Michaels star. Talk about jackles who needed him for his money. With the exception of Janet who made it on her own. The saddest part is knowing those kids are going to be raised by these people. Especially his loser father Joe.

By Leslie.. Posted July 13 2009 at 2:26 AM.

michael jackson was a superstar

By nellie long.. Posted July 13 2009 at 1:47 AM.

Judging by this article, MJ wasn't the only nut in this family.

He was a talented man, one of the most original who combined Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire with Motown. He was a humanitarian. But is it generous to give away millions while owing others 400 million? He was a sick individual who fancied himself Peter Pan. He was all of these things, not just one, and should be remembered in such a way.

By RickS.. Posted July 13 2009 at 1:53 AM.

Oh yea...it was a conspiracy, everyone would know it too, if they just adjusted the top of their tin foil hats towards the equator every night at midnight.

U R the king and u'll remain the king
U can never be compared with any one in this world
MJ 4 ever

By leenzo.. Posted July 13 2009 at 2:04 AM.

MJ was a hero and an Idol to many thru his music. How you see MJ is all based on your avalability to him personally. His music touched people all over the world because his words resonated and aligned with the hearts and minds of his fans.

He was an extremely wealth man at some point in his life. That was sure to bring scavengers and leeches because money has a way of doing that to people. Michael was a grown man and could have reached out for help. I am sure if he wanted to phone or visit family he would have. Sometimes the things that are detestable in our own eyes we keep from the ones we love to keep from hurting them. Could that have been Michael. The concert conspiracy could have some truth to it and probably does. There can be no whole truth from this point foward because there are only two who know exactly what happened and can clear up any rumors. That would be Michael Jackson and God Almighty. Everything else and I do mean everything, will be therotical speculation even given the outcome of the toxicology report. The ultimate reason or cause of death will be cardiac arrest. Was it induced cardiac arrest will be speculative based on motives and money.

May Michael Rest in Peace

By Frank Brown.. Posted July 13 2009 at 1:27 AM.

erm he wasn't just a entertainer he was a humanitarian who did a hell of alot for charity

By Dave.. Posted July 13 2009 at 12:54 AM.

It is a sorrowful day to have read this article and think it might be true. I am sure that MJ would not want us to feel anymore pain for losing him. I know he is looking down from heaven to help us all get through this difficult time. My feelings and sorrow go out to his family and his fans. I miss you very much MJ and thanks again for coming to visit with me in my dreams, even in death you make me feel better.

By Amy Hoffmann.. Posted July 13 2009 at 12:48 AM.

i can't really understand all these stories!! if your brother dies, and you did entered the house to first look but for treasures , how far can we believe u are not also a treasure monger? I will wait i see

By anderson.. Posted July 13 2009 at 12:29 AM.

So, did "they" force all of those drugs on him for what, all of 25 friggin years? Took "them" a long time to kill him, that's for sure. Where were the "loving" family members when "they" were carting all of those oxygen tanks into this place?

By Grace.. Posted July 12 2009 at 11:54 PM.

I keep hearing about all these assets.....What about all the deficits (The money he owes) From what I understand, that is going to knock the hell out of all the assets!!

By Captain Hook.. Posted July 12 2009 at 11:58 PM.

Michael's news is global not just in america. ppl care more about Michael who gives a sit about your army fighting for you? who who were the ones sent those troop to die needlessly for your country? blame your own government!

By yoyo.. Posted July 13 2009 at 12:06 AM.

I think that first of all his family didn't help him. The one who made MJ life terrible was his father, from beggining, he never had a childhood. After that other people used and abused him, that's why he was sad and lonely because he lost his faith in people and he was suffering. In one interview he said"i want to be loved" because he understood that a lot of people close to him, loved him for money. His fans loved him for real, his children and mother, for others i don't know?!. I feel sorry for him, he tried to make others happy and world a better place while he was dying from sadness. My heart is crying for him, not only because he is dead but because he never had a life. He was so lonely....RIP Michael. All the ones who made you suffer, will be punished!!

By lora-alb.. Posted July 13 2009 at 12:08 AM.

Up to this point, I don´t know what to believe but I just see leaches everywhere. Poor MJ. Rest in peace, death or alive....

By Gema.. Posted July 12 2009 at 11:30 PM.

mj has been addicted 2 pain killers 4 many years
he was a patient @ a harley street clinic way bakk in the 90s 4 his prescription medication addictions
....so where was the jakson family in the fianal weeks of mjs life???
y was nobody chekking up on him???? latoya and her syblings nedd 2 start lookin closer 2 home b4 blamin every tom dick and ranjit 4 this mess

By farida .. Posted July 12 2009 at 11:43 PM.

I actually believe in what La Toya says. If she thinks this is out of character of Michael to have all these problems, go ahead and I hope you get to the bottom of this, even if it takes some time as these things do. R.I.P Michael you are and will always be the king of pop godbless you all.

By janette.. Posted July 12 2009 at 11:05 PM.


Now, my theory on his demise: Sony Music and AEG did him in. Sony was tired of having half that asset being litigated and leined, and with his long history of NOT fulfilling concert contracts, and this one was 150 million Pounds Sterling ... plus MJ had not produced new product in years, he was technically of no use to anyone. So AEG had their doctor, bought and paid for by them, to go certify MJ was healthy as can be, insured the hell out of the concert and sat back with Sony and said "lets push him and see what happens".

POOF! He imploded! Insurance kicks in, the Beatles library will finally be settled and when its all said and done, no one will actually miss him.

By mcink.. Posted July 12 2009 at 10:27 PM.

Yeh right La toya You were the only one seen looking for buried tresure after your brother was dead at his house. You are a trader and even turned on your brother when he most needed from his family. you are washed up girl, get a job and stop trying to get the medias attention with your lies and false statements, Blood sucker.

Jose

By Jose.. Posted July 12 2009 at 10:26 PM.

There is NO conspiracy. It's a bunch of lies from the Jacksons, to deflect from the FACT that Jacko was a major drug addict. If "they" killed him for his money, how come "they" didn't know about his will, which left his money to his mother and children?

By Deb.. Posted July 12 2009 at 10:42 PM.

I just hope they find out the truth. I still cannot believe it that he has gone. I have listened to his music since his death. His music will always live on and I feel sorry for his kids. I hope the truth does come out and not from all the papers cos they print such lies. I wonder if the truth comes out about Jordan Chandler and how is he feeling if he lied all them years ago. Hope he rots in hell.

By Lynn.. Posted July 12 2009 at 10:38 PM.

my thoughts are with the jackson family and i just hope you get to the bottom of it all! i wish people would leave them to grieve and also to those who are righting nasty comments below should really think about those people who the comments will hurt! as the old motto goes "if you cant say anything nice dont say anything at all"
miss you michael!

20 more years and all Jacksons of this generation will be gone from earth, something to look forward to.

By andy.. Posted July 12 2009 at 9:54 PM.

I swore Whacko Jacko was going to jump out of the casket and start singing "Beat it" as part of the come back tour. I was so disappointed. Does anyone know if he is still dead? If he is, I bet Calypso Louise Farahkan had something to do with it.

By Republiker.. Posted July 12 2009 at 9:47 PM.

IT is very interesting to note how MJ is protrayed as an Idol. He may have been a good musician, but his personal life was screwed up. The real heros are people fighting to have the freedom in this country for which everyone is ignoring while Capital is writing up bills to continue to take our freedoms.
Also why didn't MJ have his own biological kids, even mixed kids??????

By PEOPLE ARE SOO AMAZING.. Posted July 12 2009 at 9:34 PM.

To RobB

You have no concept of assets, do you? Michael was well worth over $1 billion USD.

By LA.. Posted July 12 2009 at 9:18 PM.

It is kind of interesting how Michael Jackson prominently hit the news in 1993, 2003, 2005 and 2009 if I correctly remember the timeline of when major new news on MJ hit the fan. Might he have been as a distraction by the U.S.?

1993 : first world trade center attack / MJ accused of child molestation
2003 : Iraq war / MJ 2nd abuse allegations
2005 : domestic spying / MJ tried aquitted
2009 : Iran hijinks, Ensign and Sanford affairs involving shadowy Christian "Family" members who meet and keep secrets. / MJ dies, takes over news

Interestingly one of Michael Jackson's latest backers was a "devout Christian" who did not approve of MJ and his life style but backed him anyways on his latest tour. ????

By Herbie.. Posted July 12 2009 at 9:14 PM.

la toya doesnt need to get revenge, when the public find out who killied him, billions of peope around the world will be looking for them, They will NOT get away....

By robert .. Posted July 12 2009 at 9:11 PM.

I always figured something wasn't quite right with Michael Jackson's death. It just seemed "fishy" to me. After hearing the "news" as if they could be trusted here in America & hearing the events that played out it just didn't add up. How is it that a star such as him did not have his "help" in his mansion not watching him constantly, even if he had a "condition?" It seemed as though he was dead for awhile before anyone did anything. From what I also heard is that during his upcoming tour he was gonna help fund a Ms. Jane Burgermeister whose an Austrian Ex Journalist now who has exposed and is charging our President, the WHO, the CDC, The Rockefellers, The Rothchilds, & countless other "groups" for plotting & planning the mass forced vaccinations & spread of the "SwineFlu." Makes you wonder.......
