"Michael was murdered," says LaToya Jackson

We have heard very few words directly from the Jackson family, but it seems the silence is breaking. LaToya Jackson, one of Michael's three sisters, commented to Britain's Daily Mail that she thinks her brother's death was led by "a shadowy entourage" and considers them to have "murdered" him.

LaToya believes that doctors, handlers, and assistants are to blame for her brother's death. "I believe Michael was murdered, I felt that from the start. Not just one person was involved, rather it was a conspiracy of people. He was surrounded by a bad circle. Michael was a very meek, quiet, loving person. People took advantage of that. People fought to be close to him, people who weren’t always on his side," LaToya told the newspaper.

LaToya goes on to comment that she predicted her brother's passing "less than a month ago." She recalls telling her family, "'He’s never going to make it to London. He was worth more dead than alive." I thought Michael was going to die before the London shows because he was surrounded by people who didn’t have his best interests at heart. Michael was worth more than a billion dollars. When anyone is worth that much money, there are always greedy people around them."

LaToya also shares that in Michael's last few monthes he "was isolated from his family. He had no real friends. He was the loneliest man in the world. I knew something terrible was going to happen." She also shares her thoughts about Dr. Conrad Murry, Michael's doctor who was present when Jackson died. LaToya said when she began questioning the doctor at the hospital about her brother's death, Conrad "disappeared." LaToya finishes up by saying when she saw Michael's body "His eyes were half open and he looked like he was sleeping. He wasn’t cold."

Are Drugs Involved in Michael Jackson's Death?

Some family and friends close to Michael Jackson have been hinting that drugs may be responsible for his death. Michael received a shot of Demerol before noon on Thursday and even though Jackson family members say he got a shot of Demerol each day, the dosage he was given yesterday may have been too much. Demerol is similar to morphine, and some sources at the hospital where Jackson died are saying that the king of pop stopped breathing shortly after he was given the Demerol shot.

"His staff started mouth-to-mouth and an ambulance was called which got there in eight minutes," a source at UCLA hospital said. "But paramedics found he was in full respiratory arrest, no breathing and no pulse. They started full CPR and rushed him to hospital."

Despite how shocking it was to hear of Jackson's death, a spokesman for the Jackson family, Brian Oxman, said it was not unexpected.

Others say that Micheal Jackson's death could be a result of stress about his upcoming 50+ concert tour. The exact cause of his death will not be known until after the autopsy, but right now it is just said to be a result of cardiac arrest.
