Last Day-- The Family-- Testimonies

 

The Family:

 

Katherine Jackson and his three children accuse the concert promoter AEG of neglecting the pop king's health prior to the series of 50 London concerts he was scheduled to give the summer of his death. She blames AEG for putting her son in the hands of Dr. Conrad Murray.



Katherine:


He was the best father. He knew how to raise a child. He taught them a lot of things. Sometimes he cooked for them. They loved it. He made them read for an hour a day. He used to take them to museums, places like that. Every time he travelled, the children accompanied him.
There were only 10 concerts planned, that's what he said he would do. And as they put the tickets on sale, they went up to 40, then to 50. But Michael didn't want to do 50 dates. He told me. He told me, “Mom, I don't want to do 50 concerts. ” But he was proud to see that everything sold out so quickly. He was proud of it, but he didn't want to do it. I kept calling them and saying, “My son can't work like that. ” You know, even when he was younger, when he was working, he only did one or two concerts a week, not every two days, doing the show over and over again, it's far too much.


Murray knew better than anyone what had to be done, and if he had been there when Michael stopped breathing, Michael would still be alive today. It was a cause of Michael's death, and I don't think he wanted that outcome, but he was careless. He took a risk, and he was in a good position to know it.


Murray asked Prince, 12 years, to come up to the room and show him his father lying on the bed.
He was guilty, and he wanted Prince to come so he could see for himself that he was trying to revive their father. And when Prince came in, he put it on. . . his father was already on the bed. So he tried. . . he did a heart massage. He's a cardiologist. He knows very well that you have to do a heart massage on a hard surface. Prince told me that when he went up, at first he didn't even recognize his father, because his face was swollen, his hands were swollen. So of course, the two minutes Murray talks about, the ones he says he went to the bathroom, are lies. It takes more than two minutes to get this swollen, for a person to swell that much. So it's obvious that Michael had already been dead for a while.


Paris came in too, I don't know what he was thinking letting his kids see Michael like that.
She started screaming, rolling on the floor crying, crying in hot tears. I think he was wrong to do that. What he should have done is he should have called 911 instead of wasting all that time.
I think he stayed on the phone much longer than he said. But he was talking to his girlfriends, who were all strippers. We discovered this during the preliminary hearings. So he went to a lot of strip clubs, and it's possible that he left Michael to go there for three, four hours. We cannot know what happened.


What people don't know is that Michael sent a lot of kids to college. When I traveled to different cities, people would come up to me and say, “Without your son, my child would not have been able to go to university. When Michael would hear about parents of very sick children, he would pay for their child's surgery , send money and say, “Can you pay for this child's surgery?” He also paid for funerals for many parents who could not afford to bury their child or a family member. He did a lot for charity, and I didn't know about it until Michael passed away.
Before his death, and right after the 2005 trial, he came to me and said, “Mom, I don't trust anyone. The only person I trust is you. ” Because those who approached him were lying about his account, you see, and then they walked away. And many people testified against him, because they received money to do so. And he said to me, "I can't believe people are like that. "
The biggest mistake he made. . . it wasn't he who made that mistake but his lawyers. . . at the time of the first accusation, it was his lawyer who made it. He was so busy on his tour, until. . . I don't think he really knew what was going on, how serious things were. And I kept calling him and telling his bodyguard Bill Bray, who stayed by his side for a long time, that he needed to come back to see what was going on. These people were making these things seem so real, you see. And I think the biggest mistake was not to fight it, and they told him he better not fight, because he told me he wanted to fight . Because they were lying about him, and he wanted to fight. But they said no.

He would never have done that. He loved children too much. He would often say to me, “Mom, what they are accusing me of is so false, I would rather cut my wrists than hurt a child. ”


 




Papa Joe:


He believes his son was the victim of murder.
Michael had agreed to 10 performances. Organizers then added all the others, Joe said in an interview with ABC News.

 


Paris Jackson:


The girl, who was 11 at the time of the tragedy, said her father "suggested that people were trying to get at him. "
Paris is convinced that her father was murdered. Before adding, she hopes one day to have the culprits condemned.
She would have liked to have her father by her side. “We miss him with all our hearts. It will never be easy. I have so many memories in mind. . . When I hear his music, I feel like dancing, but some songs make me cry.



Blanchet, Bigi:


He spoke about the climate issue what he's passionate about and in which his father was also involved.
I think it's important that we all know. I think we have work to do, but our generation knows how important it is. "
This house and studio are full of history. That's his reason for being. That's what all of us want to do, to do things that people can enjoy and that I hope will benefit their lives.
When Bigi was younger, he recounted his experiences with his father in the documentary Jacksonology: Our Story.
Sometimes I would go into his room when he was getting ready for something and I would watch. He was a good dancer, a very good dancer. I don't know how to dance or sing. . . I'm not the type to sing and dance. ”
When I grow up, I want to be a director because it's fun, and I do little movies when I'm at home with my cousins and my friends and stuff. Dad told me it would be good, so be what you want to do. "



Prince:


His father was afraid that the music industry's top executives would come after him.

"He would come home worried about his safety, about his career, about his property, because he felt like he was making fun of the wrong people. " "Either through his messages of unity, or by calling other entities. Whatever the reason, it put a target in his back. "



Debbie Rowe:

Described Michael as a "generous" man, "wonderful father with children" and a "brilliant businessman" and attacked his entourage as "vultures. " "There are several Michaels." There's my Michael and the Michael that the others see"
"I've always considered him my friend.

 

 

La Toya:


She was the first representative of the Jackson family to visit the property when the King of Pop had just died: LaToya Jackson's name appears on the death certificate as the person who "informed the authorities".
"Michael was murdered because he was worth much more dead than alive!"


I never had any doubt. You must remember the day I found out that Michael was no longer with us, when my mother yelled 'He's dead!' on the phone, the first thing I thought was, 'Who did this? Michael was murdered for his music catalog, that's the end of the story! He was murdered for his catalog and they knew Michael was worth a lot more dead than alive," Michael's sister told GMTV.


His children deserve the truth. I think his parents deserve the truth, his family and his fans deserve the truth. Personally I think it's a slap in the face, not just for Michael, but for the whole family. It's totally unfair, it's wrong and it wasn't an accident! The poor children of the star no longer have their father now.


I felt it from the beginning. Less than a month ago, I thought to myself that he was going to die before he could perform in London, because he was surrounded by a circle of people who didn't really defend his interests with heart. . . Michael was worth over a billion dollars. When someone weighs that much money, there are always people running around (. . . ) It is not one person who is involved, it is more a conspiracy of people. He was worth more dead than alive, "These unhealthy people around him saw in Michael a cow to be betrayed, I think it upset his balance to such an extent that he died of it" She also states that strangely money, jewelry and valuables disappeared the after death. . .


I won't stop until I find out who's responsible for his death. Why did they keep him away from the family? It's not about money. I want justice for Michael. I will not rest until I find out what - and who - killed my brother.


Michael wanted to give up music to become a director. "The first film was supposed to be a horror movie, titled 'Thriller'. “He was going to give up music. He didn't want to go on stage anymore.
She added that her brother updates his will every five years, so "we would expect to see a new one dating back to 2007. "


Taj:


I spent four decades with this member of my family, but some people dare to tell me that Michael Jackson was this or that, when they never approached him!
An unparalleled showman and one of the greatest history's philanthropists who donated hundreds of millions of dollars to various charities.
After my uncle died in 2009, the FBI made public 333 pages of the file from their investigation into Michael Jackson. Documents accessible to all. Nothing incriminates my uncle. However, many media are racing for sensationalism, it is more lucrative! The fraudulent film "Leaving Neverland" features more than 50 lies that have been documented, but in the end there were very few echoes around these counter-truths. There is a noticeable imbalance between the words of the accusers versus those of the defenders. The media must be able to give all the keys to the public to form a critical opinion. Fortunately in the internet age, individuals do research and this has resulted in demystifying a lot of things around this pseudo-film.


We are also appalled by the discovery of the fraudulent journalistic methods of former BBC star journalist Martin Bashir and his production team. The facts that have just come to light about the lies they used to obtain the confessional interview from Lady Di, are terrible! We also want to shed light on these methods for his 2003 interview of my uncle in "Living with Michael Jackson. " The public restitution did not correspond in any way to the original interview! Fortunately, my uncle had his own camera on during this series of conversations with Bashir, hence a reformulated focus: "The Michael Jackson's Interview: The Images You Were Never Supposed to See," a video that can still be viewed on YouTube.
This form of journalism that consists of making friends, gaining trust in order to manipulate better is immoral! But, one day or another, there is the backlash because today Martin Bashir is being investigated and held to account.


The seven-part documentary mini-series I'm working on are very important in that regard, as it will be about documenting the real Michael Jackson for new generations and bringing even more support together. Reverse the tabloid version. At the time of 'Cancel Culture', I can see every day that we can never cancel the work of the greatest artist of all time.

Macaulay Culkin, he is the godfather of Paris:


He recalled that his long-standing friendship with Michael was "perfectly normal, and banal". "It's easy to say our relationship was weird, but it wasn't because for me, our friendship made sense. We were just friends, that's all.


Macaulay Culkin had met the pop star when he was ten years old. We all remember his appearance in MJ's 1991 music video Black or White, where he played that turbulent little rock-fan boy who would break his parents' eardrums playing electric guitar solos. The actor had, since that day, maintained a "purely sincere" friendship with Michael Jackson.
"I didn't have any friends at the time. At my Catholic school, no one knew what I was going through, and he was the only one who had experienced the same thing and reached out to me so that I didn't feel alone. " Macaulay Culkin described his idol as "hilarating, sweet and charming". "I know everyone judged us, but for me, our friendship was perfectly normal. "


He testified on behalf of Michael Jackson at his trial in 2005. He was summoned to appear on 10 counts, including sexual touching of a minor. He was acquitted in June of the same year. The young actor reacted during the hearing, calling the charges against his friend "absolutely ridiculous. " He claimed to have slept several times in the same room as Michael Jackson, but that he had "never seen him being improper with anyone. "

Victim of a conspiracy.


"The more famous the star, the bigger the target," said Michael himself. "What I'm saying is that people go after celebrities, we're targets," but the truth always comes out. I believe in it. "


When Princess Diana died he said it could have been me! because often the paparazzi follow me with the scooter glued to my car to take pictures of me. . .


"Living with Michael Jackson," triggered the 2005 trial and Michael's death. Martin Bashir started this plot against Michael. In 2021, an investigation revealed that Bashir had obtained the Panorama interview through deception and falsification of documents. The BBC published thousands of emails as a result of this investigation.
