I think LaToya is normally way out there, but I think there might be some truth in what she's saying. I think there were people who really wanted him dead.

As far as committing suicide, I doubt that. The reason I doubt that is because he would have upgraded his will to ensure there wouldn't be any squabble about his kids. I also doubt that he would have killed himself because his kids were his life. It's apparent that he really loved them and wouldn't purposely leave them parentless. I just don't think so.
Who would have wanted him dead?

Panelists on assorted news shows have remarked that if he were dead then there was no more money to pay for drugs/services.

Until an official decision is revealed I will believe that 20+ years of ingesting multiple potent drugs in increasingly high doses finally took its toll.

Agreed I hate how these silly unproven speculative rumors muddle the obvious!

LaToya and/or other sources say that Joe Jackson has offered recording contracts to two of the children and that he plans a tour with the Jackson 3 in 2010. --cough--

Talk is cheap.

Unless MJ provided vocal training for his children it doesn't seem likely that they inherited his talent. They would conceivably have a very different style.

Well the reason I said that some people might have wanted him dead was because A) he can't spend any more money and B) he's worth more now and his debts can be paid off .... I don't know, I'm just saying... it's sounds very "made for TV movie", but who knows? There might be some truth there.

PS Joe Jackson is scum and should be treated as such.

To start, the record companies. I read on the internet that it is projected that they will sell more of his music NOW that he is dead than they did when he was alive.

It's something to think about, anyway

This was a grown man who man his own choices and hjad his own addictions by his actions. MJ even used several doctors and made up names to get what HE wanted. He is not this poor victim.
the sad thing is at most these doctors will lose their licence and be brought up on charges of manslaughter, that's it.

exactly, if these rumours are even partially true, 20-30 zanex a night to sleep amongst all the other meds year after year will have serious consequences. Many of these meds, just like tylenol, work on the liver and other internal organs. you would do serious damage to your liver even if you took that many tylenol. I wouldn't be surprised if his liver or other internal organs were shot after all that abuse, if true.
