Hmmm he was paranoid and now he is dead....I don't think the drugs made him paranoid, he felt he was in danger and now he is gone. Conspiracy theory? Maybe Jesse Ventrura knows the answer........

What is this supposed to really prove? There is a possibility that MJ was mixed up with the wrong people because he was so vulnerable. Let's let those who really believe in conspiracy theory conduct their investigation and give us the details when it's all done and you know who's who and stop with all this drippling BS with no substance.

I couldnt agree more. That doesnt sound to me like drugs talking. He is actually "afraid" of someone. Daphne better rethink her position, and stop listening to SHRINKS for her info.
Thats what they are all about, is issuing drugs. Michael was scared for his life. Soooo sorry "it" took him away, through Conrad Murray.

Poor Michael...can't get a break even after being laid to rest.....

maybe it was the doctor that prescribed him the meds!

The person Michael was talking about, "Name Witheld" is most likely Tommy Mottola, ex-husband of Mariah Carey and ex-chairman of Sony Music. Michael Jackson was afraid of him and didn't trust him.

Just can't let the man go.....He's dead, please let him go

They'll never let him go as long as people like YOU and the rest of us keep clicking on and responding to every article they post. You obviously had enough curiosity to read the article or you wouldn't be posting. And as long as people like you have an interest in reading the articles, they will keep writing about him. So what is your problem?
Jackson was the cause of all his own problems.
Suicide was so easy for him.

mj didn't kill himself u jerk.
Hmmmm...he was paranoid that he was being recorded. He WAS being recorded. Is it paranoia if people were actually trying to sabatoge him?
Reply
People weren't "recording" him. He was leaving his messages on someones voicemail. HE was the one recording his message on their voicemail so they could hear it. Maybe you're just not familiar with how voicemail works? Why would you be paranoid about the recordings you are purposely making yourself?
as we all know people keep voice messages for years.
then sell it to some so called "journalist".
Why is it paranoia or medications that are being named the reason for Michael's fear? Can't everyone see that his fears are real and if he had been taken seriously he would still be alive today? Why were his calls recorded? And why didn't anyone do something to help Michael? Seems like everyone wanted to make money off Michael! This was a call for help - not something to be chalked up to paranoia!

It is called....voicemail!! You know that amazing mechanism where one RECORDS a message. If he were truly afraid, not just whacked out on drugs, he would not be leaving a RECORDING of his paranoid rants on an answering machine. He was an ecenntric nut and he is gone get over it already.
Why were his calls recorded???? Because he left his messages on someones voice mail recorder! Tht's how it works! If it wasn't recorded, the person he left the message for wouldn't have heard it. So obviously the person he left these messages for thought they were strange and recorded them. Wouldn't surprise me if the person selling these messages is someone in his own family.
Why did no one help Michael? First of all, when they tried to help him he left the country to get away from the people who could help him. He took off to Europe and then the middle east. Secondly, he had bodyguards and security people instructed to keep anyone away from him, especially his family members. That's the way he wanted it. You should have known that without anyone having to tell you.
After he was accused of child molestation, I'm sure he was being threatened. He probably needed to be concerned about his safety and his kids safety and I'm sure he did want to leave neverland. Even after he was exonerated some people still want to believe the worst about him and for these people nothing will ever change their mind.It's just sad that people continue to exploit him even though he's dead.

He wasn't EXONERATED, he was found not guilty. Just like O.J. Simpson was found not guilty. If it had been anyone else but Michael Jackson they would have been found guilty. People are infatuated with celebrities, and will give them an extra benefit of the doubt. That's what the jury did.
Conspiracy????? How about a troubled, spoiled, egomaniac who lived in a fantasy world of his own making, who had to drug himself into a stupor & spend millions on expensive CRAP & none of it brought him happiness.
