LaToya Jackson claims her brother's death was "not an accident"


In a news article posted on http://news.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/hi/music/newsid_10400000/newsid_10401000/10401060.stm, the headline caught my eyes, stating that Jackson's sister LaToya Jackson claims her brother was "murdered for money", the news article stated:

LaToya Jackson has claimed her brother Michael was murdered because he was "worth so much more dead than alive".

Speaking during a TV interview, the singer demanded what she called "the truth" surrounding the star's death in June 2009.

She said: "He was murdered for his catalogue and they knew that."

Tomorrow (25 June) marks the one year anniversary of the Thriller singer's death with fans organising tributes around the globe.

'No' accident

Earlier this week music trade magazine Billboard reported that the royalties accumulated since the star's death had earned the Jackson estate $1 billion (£677 million).

In an interview with GMTV she said: "Personally I think it is a slap in the face, not just to Michael but to the entire family. It's totally unfair, it's wrong and it was not an accident."

Asked whether she believed the star was murdered, she added: "I never had a doubt.


"You must remember from the day that I found out that Michael was no longer with us, when my mother screamed 'he's dead' on the phone, I just went into this, 'Who did it?"'

Michael Jackson's personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray has pleaded not guilty to a charge of involuntary manslaughter and is currently awaiting trial.

LaToya's not the only member of the Jackson family talking ahead of the first anniversary of Michael's death.

His brother Jermaine's claiming converting to Islam might have saved his life.

"I felt that if Michael would have embraced Islam he would still be here today," the former Jackson 5 member told the BBC World Service.


I don't know whether the claim LaToya Jacksom is making is true or not, but....
