Michael Jackson’s Father Suspects Foul Play

mjanddadMichael Jackson‘s father, Joe Jackson, says he suspects foul play in the death of his superstar son.

Jackson, 50, died Thursday after suffering an apparent cardiac arrest.

And the Jackson patriarch, 79, says he has a “lot of concerns” over events leading up to the tragedy.

“Michael was dead before he left the house. I’m suspecting foul play somewhere,” Joe told ABC7.

“He was waving to everybody and telling them he loves them and all the fans at the gate. A few minutes after Michael was out there, he was dead.”

Jackson’s initial autopsy — conducted by the L.A. County Coroner — concluded that there was no trauma to the star’s body and “no indication of foul play”.

The coroner said that Michael had been taking “some prescription medications.”

The coroner said the cause of death was deferred because additional testing — including toxicology and other tests — is needed. It will take 4-6 weeks to complete.

The Jackson family’s lawyer said more would be said after the results of a second post-mortem examination.

Mr Jackson said the singer’s children were the family’s “first priority” and that he and Michael’s mother, Katherine, have “authority for our son and his children”.

Asked about funeral arrangements, Mr Jackson said: “We haven’t got to that yet, we are working on that.”

    No matter what skeletons M.J. had in his closet, he was a very inspiring icon. I grew up jammin’ to thriller, in fact the ‘thriller’ cassette was one of the first cassette’s that I had ever owned. I loved it. But his past is something that none of us has the right to judge, as it says in the Bible,’Let the one without sin cast the 1st stone’. Although us humans has a problem with forgiving people for their wrongs, GOD forgives. And if Micheal was guilty for the things he was accused of, that’s between him and GOD. Personally, I don’t think Micheal was guilty of the allegations he was accused of, but I do believe O.J. was guilty. But, above everything else, Rest In Peace, Micheal. You will always be remembered by all. We Love ya.

    Michael Jacksons was MURDERED and now the news media and internet is helping coverup his Murder. They know Joe Jackson will find out who and prove who Murdered his son, just watch how they word their reports about Joe Jackson to sway the public, when Joe Jackson did a better job of raising 9 children than Paris, Lindsay, Redmond, and so many other celebrity parents, children running around as Hellraizer, showing pantiless crotches, doing crystalmeth and going to jail for it, and just teaching young girls how to be acceptable modern day whores. Michael Jackson was Murdered and the coverup started long before he was Murdered in the media. This is about the FAKE WILL these Robbers called Exectuors conjuered up to steal his Estate and Paid Off Judge that handed Michael Jackson Inheritance that he worked all his life for.

    Michael is gone and we all should let him “Rest In Peace”. What ever killed him, dragging him and his family through all this pain is not going to bring him back alive. It’s time the media let the family mourn the passing of their loved one! I too grow up with Michael’s music and I loved him too.
