La Toya Jackson Claims Brother Michael Was Murdered

Michael Jackson's older sister La Toya has spoken out about his death, claiming he was murdered by "people controlling him."

The 55-year-old made the sensational claim on Piers Morgan's show on CNN, (via the NME). "Michael told me that they were going to murder him," she said. "He was afraid. He was afraid for his life. I would never, ever think differently.

"People come into your life, wiggle their way in, control you, manipulate, control your funds, your finances, everything that you have. And you must do what they tell you to. That's what Michael was going through and he knew that everything that was happening to him was not kosher. It wasn't right and it disturbed him greatly."

It's not the first time that La Toya, who of all the Jackson clan was closest to her brother -- she signed his death certificate -- has expressed concerns about the circumstances surrounding his death. She requested a second autopsy after becoming suspicious about evasive behaviour by her brother's doctors as well as money and valuables missing from his house. In the past she has spoken about a "shadowy entourage" of hangers-on.

Dr Conrad Murray, one of Michael Jackson's personal physicians, is due to stand trial for involuntary manslaughter in September. He denies the charges.

I just wanted to say that michael was a wonderful person and that it is very true about the media they are real ass holes its always judge him , they never say anything good about him, like helping hungery kids , going to the hospital to visit sick and dieing children also with cancer, people need to leave him alone and let him REST IN PEACE

Yes. Let Michael REST IN PEACE. People only know what the media chose to tell us about him and they were all haters. No one should judge him. No matter what, he is the Greatest Performer of our time, if not all time. Can't take that away. HAHA

Im a massive mj fan, but i dont think he was murdered. i think he overdosed on drugs. He was acting strange because he was always high; but that does not make him a pedo. The best thing to do is; to let him rest in peace, flinging accusations around aint gonna bring him back.

Nobody is saying he was a paedophile just because he acted strange and was always high, they call him one because he molested young boys and when the parents took him to court he bought them off with hush money to make the charges go away! If you are innocent you don't throw money at people to keep quiet, he would have had nothing to worry about but the fact is he gave the parents of the boys a lot of money to keep quiet and let things go and the sick parents accepted. Any decent parent would never accept a bribe to keep quiet when a sick twisted freak abused their own child so that makes them sick and twisted too. Whether you believe he was guilty or not, the fact is he allowed lots of young boys to share his bed, boys who were in no way related to him so that alone is disturbing never mind the fact that the boys made allegations he molested them. Do you honestly think a normal, trustworthy man would ever let someone else's young kids sleep with them?? What planet are you on??!!

Desperate for publicity ? I didn't know he had this ugly sister.Where I come from the locals would say " what a stupid cow",
I don't agree with that, as the cows serve a purpose, they may not have human intelligence, but they do perform as God intended, it is unreasonable to say "stupid cow",I will take this up with the locals at the local.

I thought Michael predicted when he was going to die and surprisingly enough I am sure he predicted it being when he was aged 50! This was several years ago though! OLD HAT.

Nothing unusual about that, all he had to do was overdose on pills (like he did) and his prediction came true! I could predict i am going to die at age 50 then overdose at age 50 and the world wouldn't be stupid enough to believe i was some kind of psychic!

Who cares why he died, he got off lightly after what he had done! He should have been rotting the rest of his life away in a prison cell sick b*****d!! Everyone knows he was guilty (except the pathetic blinded fans) and deserved what he got. As for the parents of the kids he molested who accepted his bribe money, they deserve the same for not protecting their own kids!
