Alas, oh woe, the breadwinner of Jackson family is gone, but I'm sure that Joe and the rest of the family will stoop lower than this, to secure their future financial stability for years to come. MJ you were too good for this world, gone too soon, but in a better place. Love Always.

He really deserves his reputation as a maggot. Literally.

And the maggot wants custody of the children? MJ's children? ANY children?

With HIS history? You gotta be kidding! Over my dead body! (well, MJ's, anyway)

But I'll bet a judge will think differently. We'll see just how loudly money speaks.

Ever since MJ died, all I do is go on the internet to read on his investagations. It is not clear enough for us the public, we want and need to know the truth behide all the health problems he had, if any. Is the public reading true stories of the drug abuse or who did really wanted to get rid of our pop star. All my life I wanted to know why did MJ change his skin color, what was the reason. Another article was that Joe Jackson was always very abusive to Michael, will his children run the same faith. Who is really the father of MJ children, is it his physician.
Where is MJ Body, was his body in the caskit for the memorial service, to me it didn't seem so. Will the Jackson family keep everything a secret, will we know the truth behide his death. (MAY HE REST IN PEACE).

make no mistake these leeches will find a way to feather there own pocket books for decades to come. It is no wonder that MJ left his children and estate for others to take care of.
In no way do I approve of MJ's behavior inregard's to children, weather it was illegal or just wrong! But as people far smarter than I have alway's said , those who are abusd, and MJ was certainly abused, physically, emotionally, financialy, will suffer damage and pass abuse to others.

I find the media very hypocritical in this. They are making multi-millions off of Michael's death but they have the audacity to criticize the family for making something too.

I think Michael would turn over in his grave at the idea of the hatred being spewed toward his father. Yes, Joe Jackson was (Michael's words) 'too hard' as a parent. Did Michael hate him? No. Fear him? Yes, at least as a child. But for all of Joe Jackson's faults, I also think Michael loved him.
I, too, grew up with a father I feared greatly. That fear nearly cost my father his life when he nearly bled to death one afternoon while my sister and I hid and played as quietly as possible for almost 2 hours so that he would not notice us. Thankfully, the phone rang, and we rushed to answer it before he would hear it (we assumed he was in the backyard), and thankfully the closest phone was in his bedroom where he was barely breathing and blue, a trail of blood across his bedroom floor, and blood-soaked bedding.
It took many painful life lessons in adulthood, and lots of therapy, before I realized that my father's love was simply different than what I thought love was supposed to be. What nearly killed him was a bleeding ulcer, brought on by the stress of being responsible to raise 5 children into responsible human beings.
Joe Jackson had 9 children, and until Michael was 10 years old, they lived in a 2 bedroom, 1 bath home. Imagine the stress.
While I admit Joe Jackson's actions and words have been odd since Michael passed, Joe Jackson has clearly never had perfect pitch when it comes to societal norms in terms of expression emotion. Look carefully again at Joe Jackson when he spoke at the BET awards, he was shaken to the core. Not for a second do I believe this man didn't love his son. And, he may have done a lot wrong in the parenting department, but darn it he must have done something right. All of his children are loving and caring.
MJ was no fool when he nominated his mother as guardian of his children. He was well aware that they would still interact with his father. He was counting on his mother, and probably his siblings, to insure his kids would be able to remain in contact with their grandfather with appropriate emotional buffers. Cut Mr. Jackson some slack.

Why doesn't somebody do an expose on the leaking of police files to the press. I just saw on TV a video that the police took on the search of Neverland. What an invasion of privacy. The police never found what they were looking for - and they should not be allowed to sell those tapes of a persons private home to be broadcast to the world. Showing a citizens most private (and legal) possessions to the public is horrible. How can that be allowed? Poor Michael Jackson....may he rest in peace.
