Michael Jackson Wrongful Death Case Defeat Adds To His Family's Heartbreak But Was AEG Really Liable

The family of late pop star, Michael Jackson, was handed a definitive and heartbreaking defeat in court, regarding the wrongful death lawsuit they filed against promoter AEG. The family alleged in court documents AEG hired Dr. Conrad Murray who overdosed Jackson on the potent anesthetic Propofol, killing him in his sleep. The jury found AEG was not liable in Jackson's death, as at the time the company hired him to be Jackson's doctor, he was in good medical standing regarding his license and record. The jury came to the correct conclusion.

Murray is the one responsible for Jackson's death. He has served a measly 2-years on a 4-year sentence regarding the criminally negligent homicide and bears the brunt of the blame. AEG had nothing to gain from Jackson's passing. The tour would have made them money.

Jackson needed the money as well and claims AEG pushed him too hard are dodgy, as he always rigorously practice for tours. Jackson was not going to go out there unprepared and out of tune or step with his dancers. Poor nutrition (Jackson was not eating well due to the effects of the drugs on his system), exhausting rehearsals (under the guise of being a perfectionist) and the wanton misuse of pharmaceutical grade drugs as improperly and negligently applied by Murray ended in tragedy.

As LaToya Jackson pointed out a few years ago, echoing the Judiciary Report's previous claims, Sony is the one who had the most to gain from Jackson's death. They've made a fortune in posthumous sales off Jackson, as they did with Whitney Houston's passing and that of other singers. Jackson's death also makes it easier for Sony to gain full control over the Sony/ATV catalog, ram packed with copyright infringing songs the company keeps stealing from various songwriters, which Jackson co-owned.

Sadly, Hollywood is run by organized crime and they like to keep ownership on a certain level among a handful of people. Jackson, much like Sam Cooke who owned his own substantial publishing, disrupted the order and was killed for it under suspicious circumstances.

Wrongful Death Lawsuit Reveals Michael Jackson Had Buns Of Steel But Not In The Manner You Think…

Michael Jackson: my butt could break needles!

There’s a phrase that was popular in the 80s stating anyone with a great butt had "Buns Of Steel" (due to the workout video of the same name). According to testimony in the Jackson family’s wrongful death lawsuit against concert promoter AEG, the late Michael Jackson had buns of steel, but in a different way.

Testimony from Jackson’s former doctor, Stuart Finkelstein, revealed his bottom was completely scarred and hardened from years of drug abuse, via injecting potent pharmaceuticals into his buttocks to get high. Finkelstein stated under oath, "I attempted to give [Michael] a shot of Demerol [a painkiller] but his buttocks were so scarred up and abscessed that the needle almost bent."

Conrad Murray Wanted $5 Million To Be Michael Jackson's Doctor On Tour For A Few Months

Conrad Murray, the doctor of the late pop star, Michael Jackson, who overdosed him by giving him too much Propofol anesthetic, along with other pharmaceutical meds, demanded $5,000,000 from tour promoter, AEG, to be the singer's physician on tour for a few months.

This was an extraordinary sum to request, betraying the doctor's greed. Jackson wouldn't even clear $5,000,000 per night on tour, after expenses, yet Murray thought this exorbitant sum was acceptable. Murray behaved like a mercenary and it clouded his judgment in a number of things, in relation to the medical care, if you can call it that, he gave Jackson.

Katharine Jackson, the mother of deceased pop star, Michael Jackson, recently filed suit against, AEG, the concert promoter that hired, Dr. Conrad Murray, to be the singer's physician, resulting in a prescription pill overdose and the star's untimely death.

Similarly, Dr. Conrad Murray, has been sued by Michael Jackson's dad, Joe Jackson, for wrongful death. The lawsuits are legitimate and liability does lay with the two entities, AEG and Murray. One overextended and pushed him too much, while the other over-medicated him at his request, resulting in Jackson dying from cardiac arrest.

Janet, LaToya and Rebbie Jackson

Katherine Jackson recently stated in an interview, she is of the belief, certain people wanted Jackson dead, to take his assets, namely his half of the Sony music publishing catalog, which said company has harassed and threatened him over for years, as they wished to buy him out, but he resisted.

Her statements were echoed by Jackson's sister LeToya, in a widely disseminated interview, published shortly after his death. Oh, the things some do for money. The man is dead over a copyrighted catalog. Hollywood is a terrible place. How simple entertainment devolved into such greed and avarice is astonishing and appalling.
