Rowe's one-time advisor added: "The original plan Rowe had was to use Michael's name and have a bombshell book to gain for himself. Now his book can't be all bad stuff about Michael because if it's bad he'll burn his relationship with the Jackson's and he can't afford to do that."

Rowe, who is no relation to Michael's ex-wife Debbie Rowe, remains a close confidant with family patriarch Joe Jackson.
Ransom said it was Joe who hatched the plan for Rowe to represent Michael.
"I don't believe that Rowe was ever Michael's financial advisor like he says he was," Ransom said.
"Joe Jackson and Rowe faxed out a release saying that Rowe would be representing Michael."

"I don't know why the Jackson's trust him [Rowe] so much. He used to tell me all the time how weird he thought Michael was.
"Before he died, Michael wasn't even talking to his family. When they went to trial Michael would just go in his room afterwards and not talk to any of them. It's unfortunate.

"Michael was good to his family though. When he'd perform with his brothers he always took the same salary as they did even though he was the headliner. He wanted everything split among him and his brothers equally.
"After Michael would perform he was always, always reading the Bible. He was extremely religious."
Ransom told RadarOnline.com that Rowe wished to remain in good graces with the Jackson family so he can profit off of them.
"The Jackson's have big plans. They want to do concerts in Las Vegas and re-create Michael through holograms to be on stage with them," Ransom said.
