Michael Jackson's siblings attack estate executors
Monday marks the third anniversary of the death of superstar Michael Jackson, who died of cardiac arrest at the age of 50, sending shockwaves around the world.
Los Angeles (CNN) -- Janet Jackson and four of her siblings sent a scathing letter to the men who control Michael Jackson's estate, accusing them of fraud and of abusing their mother.
"THIS HAS TO STOP NOW: NO MORE!!" the Jackson siblings wrote in the letter obtained by CNN.
The letter also suggested that their mother, Katherine Jackson, suffered a "mini-stroke" recently, which her lawyer quickly disputed.
The controversy even led Paris Jackson, the late pop star's 14-year-old daughter, to use her Twitter account to weigh in.
"i am going to clarify
right now that what has been said about my grandmother is a rumor and
nothing has happened, she is completely fine," Paris tweeted.
Relations between the
Jackson family and executors John Branca and John McClain have been
strained for most of the three years since Michael Jackson's sudden
death from an overdose of an anesthetic used as a sleep aid.
The letter mostly repeats allegations made by family members, but it also threatens new legal action against Branca, an entertainment lawyer, and McClain, a music executive, who worked with Jackson at several points in his career.
"We know there is most certainly a conspiracy surrounding our brother's death and now coarse manipulation and fear are being used to cover it up," they wrote. "Your heartless pursuit of wealth, fame and power is at the expense of our family, whose deepest desire is to give to the world a gift of hope, love and unity through our music."There is a lot more to this article.
