Michael Jackson was a drug addict and TOTALLY RESPONSIBLE for his actions. He was selfish for now his children are orphans – the drugs were more important.

first

where did u come from facingreality?

I would not be surprised if its murder.

I believe it was murder too, but we will never know for sure

LET MICHAEL REST IN PEACE PLEASE !!

Here we go, let the man rest in peace damn!

Facingreality you were there? Did the police contact you yet for a statement, STFU AND STFD.

Unless you have the toxicology report and autopsy again STFU AND STFD, I think someone has personal issues they are taking out on MJJ, like he said, look in the mirror, stop passing judgment before you even know what happened.

Facingreality, you have no room to pass judgement on anyone. Let Michael Jackson rest in peace. Its bad when someone cannot even find peace in death because of people like you.

===================================================
People like you are the reason our children are so messed up. We always want to gloss over those things we need to confront – head on. Jermaine Jackson came out PUBLICLY STATING (from the momemt of Michael dying) that it was believed that Michael’s death would be attributed to his being ADDICTED TO PRESCIPTION MEDS. Janet had actually staged an intervention. Joe called fowl play!

So you STFU you ignorant person – you probably still believe OJ was innocent even after he wrote a book saying “if he did it”. Dumb a$$ – even with all the current reports out of the massive amount of drugs found in his home you have the audacity to show your ignorance.

Yes, Michael was a GREAT MUSICIAN but he was no better than a crack head on a corner – He just had his drugs delivered.

===================================================
Makes alot of sense

Joe Jackson shouldn’t even comment about any of this. Michael’s drug addiction and personal/mental struggles probably stemmed from the way Joe treated him as a child.

The Lucious Ms Sugar Walls♥☺☻♥Representing STL Baby!U need to calm down, You was not there, so you don’t know what went on neither!
———————————————————
I’m not 6 feet under either nor r my children orphans because of my selfishness. You have a right to your thinking (no matter how ignorant) and I have a right to mine. I won’t even say told you so when the toxicology report comes back and says that Michael was grossly addicted. Funny – I bet you talked about Whitney/Bobby and others you know to be crack heads but want to JUSTIFY Michaels addiction. An addict is an addict.

They always said if you want to keep black people in the dark – put it in a book for they will not read. As much info that is out their you want to ignore the evidence. STUPID!~

I swear I hate the stupidity on this site by both the writers and readers.

This would not be your standard charge of murder where someone wanted you dead and killed you. This charge of murder would be due to gross negligence, meaning that the doctor would have been able to forsee that the death would have occured based on the treatment.

Think people!!

FACINGREALITY
STFU.
You dnt knw sht.

co-sign @ FacingReality

He chose to do the drugs, his addiction eventually killed him. You can say what you want about my comments but I have a family that have been addicted for over 40+ years and I hold them SOLELY accountable for their own actions just like MJ. This person, I believe, WILL definitely die due to the drug use, and I will, as I always have, hold them as responsible.

What makes you think it’s murder? why do people find it so hard to believe that MJ could have possibly overdosed on his own. It wasn’t too long ago that people were looking down on the man and now that he is dead everyone wants to look at the man as being an innocent soul. MJ made his own choice to do what he did and for that his children will be without a father who they loved so dearly. This is a very sad situation but god has a plan for everyone r.i.p MJ. Stop idolizing celebs cause they ain’t idolizing YOU.

So many questions unanswered, and yet, there is more than enough media attention being paid to this case. Can we let Michael rest in peace, suspend judgment on each other and the situation while we wait for the developing information, then make our conclusions?

The results will come out soon.
& yeah, people were looking dwn on him when he was alive,
now tht hes dead, you make him out to be innocent.
I was ALWAYS a MJ die hard fan.
I dnt believe anything the media says about him.
Ignorant people,
let him rest.

@ FACINGREALITY

Co-sign, Im tired of people sugar coating the fact that this “great musician” was also a drug addict. Yes he should rest in peace but we should also use his death as an awareness to others of the effects and consequences of drug use.

Again…
NOT BELIEVING THE MEDIA.
smh..

I recommend you a nice milionaire dating site __Rich Flirts.c o m__. Whenever I chat with my friends on this site, I feel really relaxed and happy. They are easygoing and honest. I enjoy staying on the site. Hope you can find more nice rich friends there. Good luck to you.

@ Jackson is Not God

I wonder if the police have explored a possible sucide senario..makes alot of sense. It would seem that those around him at the time of his death would have gained nothing from killing him since only his mother,kids and charity benefit from his will.

* suicide

I doubt he was murdered. I think he called the doctor to monitor him overnight while he took dipravan. It’s kind of hard to monitor someone like that by sight so the doc went to check on him in the morning and he was already dead but for a short time. If this is the case then the doctor is partially at fault not because he didn’t monitor MJ well but because he shouldn’t have enabled MJ and was supposed to report it. Just like Anna Nicole all of MJs drug boosters should see their day in court.

Well, question is, how did MJ get the drug?
IT WAS FROM ONE OF HIS DOCTORS.
So which ever one it was,
he killed him because he shouldn’t
have got the drug for him in the first place.
It was not MJ’s fault, it was the
doctors, they should have told him no.

Everyone treating Michael Jackson like he was your God I hope you paid at least $5 for his funeral you broke idiots!
He was a drug addict and we cannot have this drug addict worshipped because he was good at entertaining us. The man that he was was a troubled soul and he was addicted to 40 freaking vicotin’s a night! His body was tired of being abused and gave up! He is no different than a crack addict and the sad part is he has so many people that look up to him and that just shows how sad this world really is! WAKE UP PEOPLE! It’s not about how good you perform, or how great you dance it’s about your character as a person and if you are empty inside you’re not someone I want my children looking up to! SORRY!

@FACINGREALITY

heyy sledge,i know you are being paid to make these stupid statements….i hope that you never bee in pain someday and then you won’t have to depend on the so called “drugs”.U smell funny sledge,nothing relevant to add,just stupid short sighted comments.

@Kola

Do YOU realize tht they are Jacksons doctors? They can be responsible for it because how else would Michael be able to get the drugs in the first place?

10 zanax at nite…?
he’s lucky he wasnt dead a long time ago…

Lmfao, and broke idiots?
wtf?
u MUST be broke. ahaha.
Jst made my day Missdst8.
Lmfao

@Briana

Do YOU realize that if he didn’t get it from THOSE doctors he would have simply gotten them from someone else. Like I said it was MJ fault for asking for and taking the drugs.

Not going back and forth bbygrl.

Good cause u sound ignorant..now move along sweetie

Lmao, still going with it?
How old r u?
Grow up darling.

Old enough to know the difference between enabling and murder

Well, were jst all gna have to wait for the results?
Correct me if im wrong.

All of this mess is going to go on forever, including the mess with his kids, we can only pray that they are not given to Rowe, I dont think she is interested in their wealfare in the least,, all she see in my opinion is $$$$$

Trueee Moreace.
I agree with u.

WHATUGOT2SAY

Facingreality, you have no room to pass judgement on anyone. Let Michael Jackson rest in peace. Its bad when someone cannot even find peace in death because of people like you
===========
All Mike wanted was to be left alone, he asked point blank for people to leave him alone, Its was requested at the mans funeral to leave him along,, LMTF alone.

& as Al Sharpton said
Michael was not strage, wht he had to go through was strange.
The fckng people who bring him down are strange.
Maybe they need to live their own life and stop trying to live his.
I hate people like tht.
ugh wtf.
SOME ppl on this forum like tht .
Ignorant.

===========
I have no idea what went down regarding MJ’s death, if he indeed was addicted to prescription drugs, he had a sickness, weakness, illness, I dont know what it is like to (maybe) be addicted to drugs, but I know it is a hard thing to kick,, The Doctors knew he had a illness to drugs,, yet they kept giving him drugs,,knowing it would/could kill him,, The doctors where the ones in control, Mike, if addicted was in NO way control of his life/actions,, I plan the Doctors,, they should have just point blank refused to give the man the drugs they knew were ruining his life.

===============
I could be wrong, but I think he Mike wanted to kill himself, he would have updated his will,

Michael was strange that’s part of the reason why everyone loved his music and his dance moves…because they were different from anyone else. On top of that sleeping with unrelated children, the numerous plastic surgeries, skin bleaching and white test tube babies all scream strange to me. The ignorant ones are those who do not acknowledge that this man was a bit different.

@ Moreace

Updated his will? How..who else would he have included.

@ Moreace

This is what happens when someone tries to jump in someone else’s conversation. Briana said it was the doctor’s fault MJ died. I agree the doctor’s take some part in his death which is legally called “enabling” but they cannot be tried for murder. At the end of the day if MJ never abused the drugs in the first place he would still be here today. ~Law School~

Michael’s dance moves and music were not “different” from others.
They were BETTER!

Y still talk about things a dead man used to do/or was acquitted of
There is enuff “strange” behavior goingz on right now with folks that are living. Let the deceased RIP.

@ BrianaTheGreatest…
Ur right. Michael wasnt strange.
that man was a damn genius.

============
The thing of it is, regardless rather Mike was taking drugs from jump street, is irrelevant to the fact that Doctors gave him meds/drugs that they knew where dangerous and could kill him, not really saying that Mike is innocent, and to sweep what he did under the rug,, The Doctors are equally to blame, if not more because they where supposedly of sound mind, Mike was not.

@ Shay

Someone can’t take Deprivan on their own. Someone, a doctor has to GIVE it to you. And when it comes to MJ u have to go thru so much nonsense to get the truth. The sad thing about it anything thats said about him ppl belives it and the news media knows that. And if he was addicted on to anything , can we really blam him. That Man was a human being, but the amt of abuse he got , I dont know who else could ever handle that. Nowadays u hear kids being cyber bullied and they kill themselves. Micheal has bullied beyond anything we can ever imagine. I admire his strength. I really do.

And speaking of that doctor. The questions I have are:
Y did it take that man 30 mins to call 911, cuz his excuse that MJ didn’t have a phone in the house and he had a cell but He didn’t know the address. Couldn’t he have called someone else in the house then? Isn’t that what they did eventually after 30 mins.

LET HIM REST IN PEACE HES GONE AND NOTHIN CAN BRING HIM BACK

Yes he was a grown man, yes he might have an addiction to pain killers, it happens! It can happen to anyone.
The point is that drug was not supposed to be in eihter MJ’s or the doctors hand unless someone was going under the knife. it’s not like MJ could’ve gotten a prescription for it or buy it over the counter. The point is that the doctor(s) gave him something that he was not supposed to have. Maybe MJ has a medical degree that no one knows about so he thought it would be ok to take it being as though he’s a secret doctor and all

Stop talking smack about him not being a child because i know if anyone of your doctors gave you medicine and said it was ok to take it non y’all asses would say “no doctor im not gonna take it’s gonna kill me”. So just shut the hell up and let the damn man rest in peace!!!!!!!!!!

Ummm, I think the bottom line is, we have entertainers (in all forms) on a pedestal! At the end of the day, they are humans like us. I was a die hard fan of MJ. Not only of his music but his humanitarian side. We all know MJ had had become a little different in the end, no familiarity of the former MJ we thought we knew. While he was proven innocent, he did a lot of things that put children in compromising positions….nothing we’d tolerate from a relative. Just think, would you feel the same way if your beloved Uncle was in “the bed” with your child and he brushed it off as “loving but not sexual?” Also, He like others unfortunately became an addict to prescription medication. He admitted that during his last tour and sought treatment. From my understanding, relapse normally happens to 90% of addicts the first time around. I think his addiction took on a life of it’s own….it’s called CHASING THE BAG! God bless Michael but he was a troubled soul. Pray for his children and pray for their understanding.

@ This Long Distance is @ work

You are wrong. My doctor once prescribed a painkiller for me and when I went to have it filled the pharmacist said that he was shocked that a doctor would prescribe that specific painkiller for a nursing mother. At that moment, I, yes, me, myself, and I, the person with no medical degree, decided that I would not take that drug the could potentially hurt myself or my child. YES, there were doctors that will give you just anything, and it is up to you to decide if you want to take it or not. Just like my pharmacist, plenty of folk told Michael it was dangerous and he wanted to go and do it anyway. He was a junkie, that’s how he died. Take the good with the bad.

@ Moreace

I respect your opionion but I still disagree..btw thanks for keeping our debate classy and intellectual unlike some.

@KOKAKOLA

NO ONE CAN BE RESPONSIBLE FOR MIKES ADDICTION BUT HE, BUT ANYONE WHO CONTRIBUTED TO HIS ADDICTION HAS THERE OWN ACCOUNTABILITY TO HOLD UP FOR. THATS JUST LIKE A STREET HUSTLER THEY PUSHING THA ISH TO DRUG ADDICTS,THEY HAVE THERE LEVEL OF RESPONSIBLITY. WHICH IS WHY WHEN THEY ARE CAUGHT THEY GO TO JAIL. SO IN HIS CASE IF THEY CAN PIN POINT WHO WAS SUPPLYING MIKE WITH DEADLY DRUGS THEN HE SHOULD BE TREATED AS A JIGGA PUSHN CRACK AND GO HIS TUSH TO THA PEN ALSO.

@ Kaii

if u would read my posts you would know that I agree with the fact that the doctors enabled Mike but I disagree with those who feel the doctors where 100% to blame. No court in the U.S would call that murder.

@Tropical English
He was a junkie, that’s how he died. Take the good with the bad.
_____________________________________________________

ok let’s say he was a junkie. Why da hell would a licensed professional that knows better, feed someone ( a junkie ) poison? why? pls explain.

@ KocaKola:

i will admit i didnt read them all just skimmed through them. do you think they should have any charges against them ( the dr’s)?

You are more than welcome, same to you

@ Kaii

Of course they should and will be charged, but people should not place all responsibilty on the doctors. Some people are acting as if MJ was so mentally distribed that he didn’t know that what he was taking was wrong and illegal. Many have come out and said they tried to talk to him about his addiction. He even admitted on tv that he used drugs. His sister tried to stage an intervention but MJ REFUSED. The doctors obviously let their friendship and love for MJ conquer their judgement and only gave him what made him happy. If they didn’t he would have just got it elsewhere. This is no different than a mom who buys crack for her son…letting ur love for someone conquer your judgement but they are not murderers.

let go b the juge!!!
RIP MJ…

let god be the juge!!!
RIP MJ

sad so sad, i hope they get to the bottom of this,i blame the enablers and the doctors and michael himself if these reprots are true.

@ Briana

U are not worth the ink on my page…please move along little girl.

I see tht I made u upset?
Wanna tlk about it?

@ Bri

On the show “Intervention” a mother was buying crack for her son because she didn’t want him out in the streets. Then wanted to stage an intervention before he overdosed. So it may seem strange to you but it happens regardless. But if he did overdose no court in the U.S would’ve charged her with murder even though she supplied and delivered the drugs. It’s called enabling not murder.

@ enkogkneegro

co-sign, thank you this man was a drug addict but people so caught up in the moon walk they ignore it and blame the doctors.

@ Smooove

He may be the BEST to you but he was different to me. I have my own preferences sweetie..calm down

@ Cukoo Kola…

NEWSFLASH: he was DIFFERENT to everybody!
Thats why he is Michael Jackson/No explanation needed really.
Honestly u come off “special”…
thats y you got the “happy” seat on the short yellow bus right

@ KocaKola

if doctors were giving him the stuff then they are responsible also, i don’t know if this was murder like if it was planned out or anything but there are def alot of people involved in this

and i sae a show called women behind bars and a lady was a p and she helped one customer shoot some drugs and he died of and overdose and guess what she was charged and she’s now behind bars even though he asked her to do it and he was a grown man and she left before he even died, she was still part of it.

Thank u. Someone needs to put ignorant ppl in their place honsetly.

honestly*

…Joe, unless the reports come back that Michael didn’t use drugs/was addicted to drugs, let it go. For now, reports show Michael wanted drugs period, even though he knew the danger. Michael had been using for so long; his body was immune and needed more. The news pointed out his family tried to deal with it, but in the end, the addiction won. True, there are always greedy people who want what they want,but with the right “handlers”, that could have been dealt with. Instead, Michael opened the door for those who supported his drug habit. Hate to see all this play out, with the kids, drugs, money issues, “baby momma” drama–but the media (news, magazines)continues to create a “frenzy” so they can get paid. This was a sensitive, talented man, with a 40 year career, making hits after hits, touching the world..he paid his price for fame. Let him rest in peace.

that’s very true about michael jackson paying the price for fame but it’s hard to know what to believe, i think there is so much more to this story than MJ just wanting drugs like the media is making it seem. yes he was sensitive and talented but he also had vitiligo, lupus an auto immune disease and insomnia and so he took alot of things to treat these ailments and then their symptoms.i’m not making excuses for michael but i think he had alot of bad people around him making bad choices for him and using him. his fmaily has denied an “intervention” and i don’t think michael would do something so harmful to himself , his kids, family and fans if there weren’t doctors telling him it’s safe. if doctors didn’t give him the stuff he wouldn’t have it, this ain’t like crack were u can go down the street ang get it these are stuff in hospitals that professionals use and had no business being in his home. but now everyone is just speculating cause we don’t even know how he passed away yet, let’s wait for the toxicology reports to come back.

I saw a list of drugs MJ was supposedly taking and 4 or 5 of them are prescribed for ppl with Lupus, which I heard he had.

Bri & uh-huh>

..while it’s true Michael needed “prescribed” medication for illness, his “former” attorney warned the Jackson family that Michael was taking too much. A nurse stated that Michael knew the danger of taking a specific drug, but Michael wanted it anyway. After his trial, Michael’s assistant said Michael got rid of most of his staff, and brought in new people, but who was monitoring his “illness” with the danger of using dangerous and addictive drugs?

I really, really don’t want to believe that MJ was murdered.

MJ hadn’t been doing anything strenuous for the last decade and his body was probably already broken down from all the meds and other drugs he was taking for his many aliments.

IMO, the rehearsals added more stress to his already fragile health and body and his body simply gave out when the doctor administered the last dose of whatever it was to help him rest that last night after the rehearsals.

I read Lou Ferrigno(sp) was helping MJ build up his body for this tour, but Lou probably didn’t have a clue as to what MJ was taking in his personal life, but his personal physician had to know and the doctor should have adjusted all the crap MJ was taking so his body could adjust.

IMO, MJ died from an overdose of too many different drugs in his system at one time and the doctor should be held accountable for this.

Sadly, I have to agree with the posts on here that MJ was a drug addict who simply went too far. This is not something that should be looked away from – we need to keep our eyes opened to the truth. By propogating a theory that he was “murdered” or speculating that other people had a conspiracy to kill him takes away his own accountability for the decisions that he made.

Michael chose to do what he did , and even his family tried to stage an intervention, but he turned them away. As many who knew him have stated, he shut out anyone who tried to help him. I loved MJ, and I have a tremendous amount of respect for him as an artist, but when my son asks me how he died, I am not going to ramble on that the people around MJ had him killed – I am going to tell him that MJ was an addict and that, unfortunately, drugs can kill people who use them.

This does not take away from my sadness that he is not with us anymore, and wherever he is, I know that he is a peace now because here on earth, he lead a life that was like a pressure cooker, day in and day out. But, again, we as adults should all be held accountable for our actions – whether the end result is good…or tragic.

I hear that a lot of people saying that we should let MJ RIP and I am with that. However, one big problem in the black community is denial and sick secrets. So, are you guys saying that his death should not be investigated? However, I dont beleieve they should be questioning his childrens paternaty. IF he said they are his that is all that mat

I grew up looking at MJ and I am so sad that I never got a chance to see him in concert. I sort of feel like I have lost a family member. When I was a kid the J5 gave us hope.

With all of that said his death should be investigated and talked about. Believe me nobody can stop MJ from resting anymore he is forever at peace!

MICHAEl WAS TAKEN OUT.
He was on the rise and ppl stood to lose big time.MJ was heavily in dept his earning capacity was very low and he stood to lose his Neverland Ranch and his 50%share in the beatle catalogue.
His brother jermaine found him a new business manager who helped him to:
1 partner with someone and save his ranch.
2 negociate a 3 year lucrative deal with AEG.
3 a broadway show.
4 And was in the process of renegociating the
loan he had with sony against his 50% share
in the beatle catalogue.mj bought that catalogue in the 80′s and ever since then sony was always
pressuring him to sell them his 50% share.He
always refused.MJ may have been addict but i’m very glad his family don’t think like some of u ppl.Do u not realize how many families go on to prove murder in cases where they loved ones death is considered an accident, misadventure or natural causes the by authorities.btw diprivan has to be given by iv drip there is no way anyone can hook it up themselves it requires a highly qulified doctor or a specialist and most should never be used outside a hospital.A doctor must first do no wrong.
