In an interview with News of the World, LaToya Jackson reveals she’s convinced Michael was killed by his handlers and is determined to bring those responsible to justice:
“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.
I’m going to trust LaToya on this one because I believe twins share a special, telepathic bond that modern science has yet to quantify. Sure, maybe Michael and LaToya are three years apart, but my God, look at her and tell me that’s not Michael’s identical clone. Seriously, it would cost hundreds of millions of dollars for him to look like that. Oh, wait.

Michael Jackson is still alive!!
joho777 | July 13, 2009 at 1:27 pm
I’m glad to see that there is no chance of sanity breaking out any time soon in the Jackson family.
I wonder if La Toya has been channeling Courtney Love?
Oh, wait. Was I supposed to say, “Frist!” at the beginning?
Newcastle | July 13, 2009 at 1:28 pm
Why in the fuck is she wearing that hat?
Viv | July 13, 2009 at 1:28 pm
What if she can prove he was murdered?
RichPort's Ghost | July 13, 2009 at 1:31 pm
Good luck charging Pfizer with murder.
Darth | July 13, 2009 at 1:34 pm
Was he murdered by aliens?
David | July 13, 2009 at 1:35 pm
A lot of people are “murdered” because of the pharmaceutical industries greed. People are fed so many medications that are not exactly “harmless”. These pills are not healthy yet they are so readily available. Doctors will give you ANYTHING if you ask for it.
GodHatesUgly | July 13, 2009 at 1:37 pm
Man. This story is going to provide the world with entertainment for years to come, I predict.
Really??? | July 13, 2009 at 1:37 pm
HAHAHAHAHA….”by his handlers.” Siegfried and Roy maybe? Oh GOD that was funny!
Gando | July 13, 2009 at 1:37 pm
If she can prove this then it might be true.
eattrn | July 13, 2009 at 1:49 pm
Close ties? I thought she was the only one in the family to bash the guy in public.
Vince Lombardi | July 13, 2009 at 1:56 pm
Only his face was murdered. But that happened long before he died.
tony | July 13, 2009 at 1:58 pm
She would…..have to be the first one to speak. It’s obvious she needs money. I don’t believe a word she’s saying. They know MJ had a problem with prescrip drugs.
Anonymous | July 13, 2009 at 1:59 pm
I guess she’s needing some publicity. Lord knows she doesn’t have a career to speak of.
dude | July 13, 2009 at 2:00 pm
So, if he was worth billions dead, why is his family stiffing L.A. on the funeral bill?
april | July 13, 2009 at 2:08 pm
how could anyone believe a word from that womans mouth?
n jane | July 13, 2009 at 2:12 pm
agree with #12 – stupid LaToya, won’t forgive her for that. Although it may not surprise me if she were right on this one.
alexberb | July 13, 2009 at 2:14 pm
Guys, the good side of this is that MJ is not gone forever, we still have La Toya to remember him.

Your Bedazzler (TM) | July 13, 2009 at 2:21 pm
#2, HAR! I concur… one only has to look at the picture of La Toya to know that this is true. This is how Michael is relieving himself of crushing debt. The disguise of La Toya was created by Michael years ago, for just this purpose.
#4, she ALWAYS wears that hat. It is to differentiate her from Michael. He wore the jacket, she wears the hat. That way, you only have to buy one dress uniform.
twzzlrgirl | July 13, 2009 at 2:23 pm
This is like saying that any stupid celebrity (who has the money to procure whatever illegal substance he or she wants) is murdered by the person who is willing to be bought off.
Celebrities die of many asinine things because, frankly, they can afford to be assholes and they know that the more ridiculous the stunt, the greater the publicity. They push the envelope over and over again, in hundreds of ways, and then they always have “family” and “friends” to come out of the woodwork once they are dead and cry foul play. Well, if anyone had REALLY cared about MJ, they would have looked into this crap when he was alive. It’s all bullshit.
Ayota | July 13, 2009 at 2:33 pm
I think there’s something weird about the doctor…he could possibly be a murderer.
Daym, I didn’t know how much I’d miss MJ now that he’s gone.
Ralph | July 13, 2009 at 2:36 pm
Self murder is called suicide! Michael has been on this path for a looong
time. Shame on her for blaming others. Is she trying to say that she and the rest of thier family couldn’t get to Michael when they wanted. BS !!!
Lloyd Johnson | July 13, 2009 at 2:37 pm
Latoya: M. Bison wants his hat back.
I Am Canadian | July 13, 2009 at 2:38 pm
Oh, God help us. Another kook coming out of the woodwork. Go away, LaToya, Don’t talk, LaToya.
Now she will get to appear on the Larry King show and NOT answer any questions.
These people need to take responsibility and let Michael take responsibility for what happened to him.
If you listen to the sane people, like the Rabbi and Deepak Chopra, they say it best when they say that if you did not agree with what Michael was doing to himself you were cut out of his life.

havoc | July 13, 2009 at 3:24 pm
By “murdered” she means ingesting 10 Xanax a night with a Jesus Juice chaser. Since 1984….
That murder….
.
mmkay | July 13, 2009 at 3:42 pm
uhhhh….so in other words she’s trying to say that he was a member of the church of scientology??
Parker | July 13, 2009 at 3:43 pm
While I’ve known all along he faked his own death, of all things why would he choose to dress up like a girl? Haha, sorry, I mean, why would he put on lipstick and women’s clothing and say he’s a girl? I thought at minimum he’d take the Elvis route and pretend he’s an impersonator to get a lounge act in Vegas.
Inmate #2648927 | July 13, 2009 at 3:47 pm
Aye, aye, captain.
Uh-huh... | July 13, 2009 at 3:56 pm
#32, well, because if he put on makeup and a dress and DIDN’T say he was a girl, we’d know he wasn’t really dead, right?
(I actually think that he normally wore more makeup than La Toya.)
Chupacabra | July 13, 2009 at 4:29 pm
Yea, you know who murdered him? Joe Fucking Jackson.
DUN DUN DUNNNN!!!!!!
emmy-em | July 13, 2009 at 4:36 pm
Uh, that’s funny. Did anyone READ the drugs he was on? Some, you can only be given when you are in the hospital. He got them, because he was rich, he was MICHAEL JACKSON (sad, but true)…and the mere fact he was able to march….er…”rehearse” was nothing short of a miracle.
I love all these idiot celebrities saying how pure, sweet, and private he was.
Well, one doesn’t do drugs like he did out in the open, do they?
Nor do they get onstage, looking like a mutilated she-monster, and grab their crotch.
But wait, there’s more!
Ohhhh…that would be Billy Mays, who REALLY DID DIE TOO SOON.
Champ | July 13, 2009 at 4:55 pm
Just another gold digger, like the rest of his family.
They are licking their chops now to get hold of his fortune.
Uncle Eccoli | July 13, 2009 at 5:07 pm
Please.
Tom K | July 13, 2009 at 5:11 pm
LOL @ #25. M. Bison!!! Street Fighter!!! I feel like hooking up super nintendo and playing that now.
I don’t think Latoya is crazy I mean she was brainwashed by her ex husband and he forced her to say Michael molested children and he used to beat her ass if she didn’t do what he wanted, so I guess she knows the signs of someone being brainwashed.
mikeock01 | July 13, 2009 at 5:28 pm
He murdered his career, Does that count? Now that the family cash cow is dead, the rest of those fucking Jackson’s are about as relevant as a Kennedy.
Urbanspaceman | July 13, 2009 at 6:05 pm
Clearly Michael willed his nose to LaToya.
Urbanspaceman | July 13, 2009 at 6:05 pm

DCMikeRotch | July 13, 2009 at 6:07 pm
HOLY SHIT, IT’S MICHAEL! But why is he wearing a captain hat?
Kim | July 13, 2009 at 6:42 pm
I’d like to know what was murdered and made into her weave.
jennyb | July 13, 2009 at 6:48 pm
Well, she is right about one thing. He was worth more dead than alive. HAHA
robert | July 13, 2009 at 6:59 pm
I’m kinda surprised they didn’t bury him in a clown car.
Psuedonym | July 13, 2009 at 7:09 pm
Take off that cover you fucking scumbag!!
Jamie's Uterus | July 13, 2009 at 7:28 pm
She’s desperate for attention and publicity again. Will this family ever go away?
xanadujulie | July 13, 2009 at 7:46 pm
they look like twins cause they’re related.
Michael once said the only work he had done was on his nose and chin, the rest was due to aging and his skin condition (which has been proven to be true) I think by the looks of his family members and early photos of him (circa Thriller) he’s telling the truth. his face has always been that shape, his cheekbones as we know from an early age have always been high (a trait other celebs pay at the ass for in surgery) and everyone in his family have somewhat separated eyes. His sister got a nose job & boobs, maybe a face lift by the looks of it, but the more secrets revealed about him & his family seem to all point to one thing: the dude was shooting straight.
Long live the king of pop & may all his enemies get what they deserve!
Max Planck | July 13, 2009 at 7:53 pm
There is a family resemblance…they have the same plastic surgeon.
