Joe Jackson Speaks About The Children, Funeral Arrangements

Joe Jackson

At a press conference at the Jackson family estate in Encino, California today, Joe Jackson told reporters that his son's three children are in good hands now that Jackson's mother Katherine is their temporary legal guardian.

"We're the parents. This is where they belong. We're going to take care of them and give them the education they're supposed to have." Joe added, "Debbie Rowe has nothing to do with what we're doing."

Jackson (who was joined by Rev. Al Sharpton) said that Prince, 12, Paris, 11 and Prince Michael II, 7, are with other children in the Jackson family and they are "happy with the kids they're around. We have kids back there, small ones like they are. They were never around other kids. They're happy."

Jackson said that he hasn't seen a copy of his late son's will, and when asked if the king of pop would be laid to rest at Neverland Ranch, he told the press, "That's not true." He also added that the funeral won't take place until they get the results from a second autopsy, saying, "We're searching to see what happened to Michael. I want to see how this autopsy is coming out, the second autopsy. I'm expecting to hear about it real soon."




Think this second autopsy will give us any new info?

THE ORIGINAL PAPA JOE..



Posted by: Jhoey27

Mr. Jackson needs to rethink his statement, if it's true that Debbie did not backout of her rights to the children, then she has every right to get the children and raise them as she pleases. All I care about is that I would like the right person to get the children, if what Michael said was true that his father beats him, it would be best that the kids are not around Mr. Jackson. I hate to judge people but the way he was laughing with Jesse Jackson in the picture taken the day after his son died, he looks like he's not sad at all, and that bothers me a lot. Must be hard to loose your money cow.

Actually Joe your ex-wife Katherine is legal guardian...not you. And from what I witnessed in your interview at the BET awards I'd say that's a good thing. I hope mamma K. has the backbone to stand up to you and protect those kids from the same abusive and unhealthy behavior you subject your own kids to...those kids will have gone through enough without you. Please, dont shove them in front of the cameras like little pawns and cash cows.

X17 - YOU BURIED THE LEAD!!! THIS PRESS CONFERENCE WAS FOR JOE TO DEFEND HIS PIMPING OF HIS RECORD LABEL, WHICH BACKFIRED HIDEOUSLY BECAUSE HE JUST DID IT AGAIN. HE CLAIMED THE CNN REPORTER AT THE AWARD SHOW ASKED HIM ABOUT HIS COMPANY. SO, IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS PRESS CONFERENCE THE REPORTER REPLAYED YESTERDAY'S INTERVIEW WHICH CLEARLY SHOWED HE DID NOT ASK JOE ANYTHING OF THE SORT. NO WONDER MICHAEL WAS SO F'D UP, LOOK AT HIS FREAKING FAMILY!!!

What a POS!!!!! How dare he speak negatively about his son & grandchildren at this time! Curious though, why isn't he living there instead of Las Vegas? Did the family put his sorry ass out? Janet is financially taking care of her mother and the Encino house, it has nothing to do with Joe. And I truly hope these children are protected & not flaunted & exploited for profit. They just lost their father, their entire world has changed, who will protect them better than Michael i wonder? Debbie Rowe has never said anything negative about Michael, it seems to me Mr. Joe Jackson has some serious issues & now that Michael is gone, he seems to think he's got free reigns. I really hope someone steps in and totally protects those children & their interests. Bless the Jackson family & all the fans!!

Lemme get this right. The Children were kept from both their Mother, Debbie Rowe, and other children. Old Joe thinks it's perfectly OK to have them be with other children, but NOT their Mother? WTF Joe?

I hate the fact that MJ had issues w his father and stayed away from this man! Now MJs dead and now papa Joe is suddenly the big man in town. Get a life...u contributed to MJ having a f'd up mentality and now u want to F up MJs kids too?
They are all scrambling to retain control because Michael is worth more dead than alive...No crazy expenses to sustain just profitability from his catalogues and look how much of his music has been snapped up since he died...
Ugh, Mr. Joe needs to BEAT IT!!!!!

This truly one of the most vile human being on earth. Look at this old fool with earring and jewelry like some rapper. Beat and abused his kids and screwed around on his wife for years. Now come the Jesse Jackson race baiting partner Al Sharpton looking for attention and never doing anything good for the black community. No wonder blacks are and have had so many problems when self-appointed leaders care only for attention for themselves and never address the real problems in the black community.

I see why MJ distanced hisself from family. His father is truly a CLOWN!! RIP MJ!



Posted by: Anonymous

It appears to me that MJ kept his children away from his family especially his parents for a reason. Debbie come out from hiding and take your hold as their mother or they will be facing the same life as their father. God help them and RIP Michael

If anyone wanted to get back at michael jackson would be his father joe jackson. When michael jackson so courageously put out there that his father joe jackson would abuse him for making a wrong move and michael jackson fans and the media heard about it. Michael jackson father reputation then became the focus of attention. Mr. Joe jackson was exposed for the man he was a child beater. Years later michael appearances started the change people would call michael a freak. So if anyone wanted to get back at michael jackson to set him up as a child molester and knowingly any certain kind of women would use their child or kids to say michael jackson molested him or them would be his father joe jackson. Paybacks a bitch! Now the media and michael fans are now focus on michael jackson for the man he is a child molester. Joe jackson you just murdered your son. Pay days a bitch! Out of all af your children michael jackson was the father and mother of that house hold since he was the main one to help support the jackson family. For the rest of the sibling betrayal is something that was wrong to do to go against a father but for michael it was his way to be a role model. Removing himself from harms way to persue his career and creats a legacy that he did on his own was proof that michael jackson wasn't no child molester he barely had time to have a girlfriend growing up. When michael jackson realized he was facing the fact the he going to be exposed for being called a child molester michael jackson got scared and didn't know what to do except to give away money in hopes of settling a made up lie that was set up that way for michael jackson to be labeled as a child molester. Michael jackson I believe what he said he did play around on the bed with those well paid made up kids who were sent their on purpose for money and media attention to get off of joe jackson exposed truth for what type of father he was to put attention back on michael jackson. Now that michael jackson is gone and for whole those who went against michael jackson just for his sorry father should be ashame of you'll selves. People will do and say anything for the love of money and for that is what was done to michael jackson. Michael jackson was only used for money and now that he gone people are still wanting to gain money in michael jackson name. The only one person should get money in michael jackson name should be his one and only his mother katherine jackson. I'am so sorry that his mother wasn't their for michael jackson when she lost her son michael jackson my deepest sorrow goes out to you. Seeing katherine jackson coming out of a car alone and going to see her son michael jackson alone I felt her pain. Knowing the condition michael jackson was dealing and facing with everyday of his life his family should of been their. I hate what all when down with michael jackson life. Mr. Joe jackson money is what killed your son. Even with a come back wouldn't of fixed the money problems michael jackson was facing and the condition he was dealing with eveyday eventually it all was going to catch up with michael jackson. Although michael tried to use various medications to help him with his anking pain, the medication was not helping with the hurt michael jackson was thinking of. Remember how the whole world was at standby until they heard the verdict of not guilty of child molestation charges brought upon michael jackson that is what took a tole on him his reputation, fame, fortune, and michael jackson king of pop name. Their will never be another to replace michael jackson he was one of a kind. Michael jackson music was unique, well put together,well song with a unique voice like michael jackson and well performed by only michael jackson himself. My question is why mourn over michael jackson now, when he was alive no one mourn over that fact that michael jackson was crying out for help from a child but since his father had such a hold over michael jackson life it was impossible for michael jackson to be a child first than a man but for michael jackson he had to be a man first than a child. The old saying is the life you live by so shell you die by and michael died by being being set free from any more harms. Sad way to leave but the way to be free from more pain and suffering. Michael jackson legacy will always be remembered for his music and not for made up media attention for a chance again in the spot light dad. We love you mom, mother katherine jackson give michael jackson kids a life that he your son michael jackson wanted too for himself. Don't give up the good fight ms.

I agree with many of you here.

Glad that MJ’s scum father Joe Jackson has been left of MJ’s will !

While he was beating MJ in his childhood, he called MJ “big fat ugly nose” - Poor MJ for verbally abused at such a tender age of 5 or 6 when he was so innocent and didn't realise he was borned a handsome and talented young man.

Joe Jackson (the SCUMBAG) might have been really very harsh, most to MJ.

But if you’re MJ as a child, how do you feel being called “you big fat ugly nose” while your father hit you with a switch or belt even for the slightest mistake that he thought you committed???

Such form of emotional scarring in one’s life - this was what prompted MJ to have excessive Plastic surgery. His skin disease was making matters worse. Joe Jackson will be promoting his new record label during the coming BET records which also pay tribute to MJ. He is an opportunist.

Joe Jackson needs to lay off his dirty hands from MJ's lovely kids!!!

While the scumbag's defenders like to argue that without Joe, the jackson 5 would not have been successful, may I ask these freaks if Worldwide SUCCESS is really so important to get in your life that you have to lose your soul.

MJ got the success and fame that he deserved, but he has been an unhappy man with a tortured soul. Lesson we can learn from his life is: Huge fame and success are NOT everything in one person's life and are NOT the neccessary key to happiness.

did you know all child rapists were also abused by someone? Poor child rapists-- ohhh lets have pity on them right? Wrong. Who abused Joe Jackson?
Shame on you, the prisons are full of violent predators who were abused. Micheal was a manipulating, first class child molestor who worked like a pro when it came to sex with baby boys. Come on 50 years old, no adult lovers and sleeps with boys by his own words. His music sucked too just like he sucked little boy dick

michael is a person of weak character,a liar and manipulator of children, a drug addict junkie and a child molester, this is his father fault? Millions of kids have way way tougher lives then he did without any money like myself who spent three years in prison as a teenager before they turned thier lives around... give me a break



Posted by: tobryan

bryan, I hope you have a father like Joe Jackson in your next life.



Posted by: tobryan

as much as you hate / detest Michael Jackson, this doesn't change the fact that Michael has the worst father in this world. You think only your life is the most wrenched among others' ? People like you can hate MJ for all the attention, wealth and fame he have got - but you missed the point that all these do not give one true happiness. So what when you have the world but lost your soul. True MJ fans would prefer MJ leads a happier and normal life even at the expense of being less successful and famous. Emotional scars from someone's childhood are not something that can be easily healed. All of us are not perfect people and victims of our own mistakes - condemning MJ does not make you more righteous. Why don't you also give the dead man a break.

To: "Bryan" You are a heartless, sick individual... Abuse affects everyone differantly, But you are sooo smart and know all there is to know about abuse, You should be a Dr. on t.v. You my dear will never understand life and you will most likely die a lonely boy...

Michael Jackson was a brilliant entertainer, and that should not be taken away from him.

On the otherhand, singing 'We are the world, we are the children...', and then sexually abusing kids just because he had a bad childhood aint cool!

Overall, I do believe that the good and the bad of Michael Jackson's life can be separated and both credit and condemnation must be given!

As a former Child Protective Services Social Worker, it is my opinion that Linda (above comment) is correct. There are five classes of child abuse, Physical, Emotional, Sexual, abandonment, and failure to provide (as in food, clothing, shelter, etc.) Of the five categories, emotional abuse is the most difficult for a young child to overcome, even with medication, therapy, etc., etc. Michael Jackson appeared to be the most sensitive child to the abuse, though I look at Jermaine, and Janet, and they don't appear to be very well adjusted either. Janet appears to be a very emotionally depressed person. It's my opinion that Joe Jackson did a job on that family, screwed them all up. even money can't buy them out of the unhappiness they are experiencing as adults. As for MJ being a child molester, I don't buy it. The 1993 accuser settled for 20 million dollars, and the 2004 accuser; well, anyone can see that that family was out for profit. I think that Michael was a creative genius who missed a developmental stage in his life. It's a tragedy. Fame and fortune did not get him one day of life in which he had peace of mind. The poor guy couldn't even sleep at night. That's a sign that says he could never relax and stop thinking; he probably never felt safe in this world. Anyway, God bless his and the Jackson family. No one's childhood is perfect, and each of us is affected differently. Prisons are just large mental institutions where we store the violent mental patients for our safety.

Joe Jackson is an evil man and he is the reason michael is dead. He abused that man terribly and didnt allow him to have a normal childhood. You are an idiot Joe Jackson and they are right when they say Katherine is the legal guardian of those kids NOT YOU!! As if Michael would want You to have anything to do with his children after what you put him through. As for Debbie Rowe .. well who cares she is the biological mother. Thats all she is. She sold her children PERIOD! she does not deserve to have those beautiful children in her life. She had very limited contact, if any, with those kids. Listen up Debbie do those kids a favour and leave them alone. You sold them you wench, now all you're thinking of is what comes with Paris and Prince .. millions and millions of dollars. You are a despicable human being, a low life. If you love those kids you wont fight for them. Didnt see you doing it when Michael was alive, so why do it now? i'll tell you exactly why you're doing it, for MONEY!! low life wench!!
Those kids belong with the Jacksons but i think that they should be kept well away from that evil creature, Joe Jackson!

I have been reading some of the comments posted by the viewers of the website. I think alot of you are sick. Not only has the childern lost their father, a father lost his son. Joe should be thanked for making MJ successful-regardless of what any of you may think. Discipline may have played a big role in the Jackson family, but whats wrong with that? If MJ or any of his sibilings were abused, child protective services would have been involved long time ago. Discipline can either make you or break you. It made MJ and a few others. See, blacks believe in strong discipline and that usually gets you in line. If MJ decided to venture off and create his own world, that was his choice. Don't blame it on Joe who only wanted the best for the family. If saw a future and had a dream. Thank him for giving you MJ. As for the childern, their mother has been less of a mother than any woman I know. How can you step out of the light of your childern for years, then wish to be called mom agian. If anyone is searching for money it would be her. Everyone knows the childern basically have dollar signs over their heads, but I think the Jackson family will truly show them what love and family are like-rather money is included or not. Some of you people are sick. All we really know is how the media has speculated and twist lots of stories of this family. We are not in the family, don't know the family, so how can we judge the family. I see some have called them freaks--well you are freaks as well. We all are. Back off and let them morn while MJ rest in peace. I enjoy wathching the Jackson's. I wish them well in the future, and God will allow the childern to be in the best hands.

Everyone is talking about Joe, this and Joe that. Debbie is NO better. How can you sell your childern because that's what "he" wanted. She is sick as F***. Money hungery b***h. She wasn't trying to go to court when MJ was moonwalking! Now her ass if fighting and crying. Please, be forreal. She must have an investment plan. Go Kat, fight. Knowing the courts and the black vs. white, she probably will win like this is some game or something. Believe it or not, that s**t is still in affect. (bvw) I don't think anyone who willing gives their kids up should ever get them back. and you call Joe sick and evil. Look at the picture over again. Better yet how about we all get a life while they are living their own

First of all did u guys remember that two of the boys came out and said michael never touched them their fathers told them to tell those lies on the poor man.It seems like everyone is lookin at the bad things and the lies when we should be celebrating his wonderful life.Even if he did molest those kids which its proof that he didnt, let the man rest in peace.None of u kno what happened.Only mike and the good Lord kno what he did or what he didnt do.Stop judging him when u dont kno him.People are so ignorant to believe everything they see and hear.R.I.P MJ MY GUARDIAN ANGEL!!!!
