Re: Michael Jackson R.I.P.

What gets me is that the LAPD may have really botched this. Why shouldn't it have been treated like a crime scene immediately until proven otherwise? It took them two days, and after others went in and basically cleaned the place out, before they went in to really look for any evidence of foul play. Did they drop the ball?

Immdediately after his death we had people reporting that he was in really bad health. Yet that newly released video footage of him rehersing two days before his death sure didn't look like he was ailing. At least not to the extent the public was being told.

It's sad, but I've got a sneaky hunch that his death was caused by medication, for whatever reason, being prescribed him. And his personal physician, who made the 911 call, will be at the center of it all. Just a hunch. This whole thing just seems fishy.... and tragic.

Re: Michael Jackson R.I.P.

Jackson was a weirdo but recently, I heard, he was starting to realize the people around him werent there for him. Ialso read a story that said he visited some Christian gosepls singers and openly sang along with Bible based songs. It was rumored he converted to islam and the nation of islam had alot of influence but he was resistant to them.

If I didnt know better, somebody didnt like the direction he was headed. All conjecture, I admit, but there are some truely rotten people out there.

What complicates this is the fact that MJ sold controlling interest in Neverland to an investment Co and guess what, that investment just took off in value bigtime.

Re: Michael Jackson R.I.P.

Watched part of the memorial tonight on vh1. There were some really nice tributes and performances. Lionel Richie and Stevie Wonder were great. So was Jermaine.

I think the most touching part for me was when Paris spoke. I didn't expect that.
