"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."
