VIDEO: Joe Jackson - "Someone Should Pay" For Michael Jackson's Death
Posted on Aug 31, 2009 @ 10:12AM
Joe Jackson told The Today Show that someone should pay for the death of his 50-year-old son Michael, in the first interview the Jackson family patriarch has given since the death was ruled a homicide last Friday.
"Someone should pay -- not just someone but all of them who were involved," he said after a tribute to the Thriller singer at the Palms casino in Las Vegas, Nevada on Saturday.
"I'm not angry, I'm mad," he said, noting he never knew Jackson was taking Propofol, the powerful drug investigators ruled as the substance entertainer died from taking. "I'm mad because I didn't know that was going on; that tells me there was foul play done.”
Michael Jackson, who Joe said was the "greatest all over the world," died after suffering a sudden cardiac arrest June 25 in Los Angeles.

Seriously, the other kids were traumatized by this guy, none of them can hold jobs, they have all been divorced and Jermaine still has to live with mom, because he can't keep a job.

of course everything joe says consists of the almighty dollar. al sharpton fits his type of friends also. i am sure he is thinking of every person he can sue over mj's death, even the ambulance service for giving michael a bumpy ride.

We cannot judge Mr. Joe Jackson. I am not de****ng him, but Michael Jackson said clearly in his interviews that he already forgave his father and that he loved him. Remember God exits and HE is the only one who is to judge.

Who cares what HE thinks. He's just making sure his minute in the sun keeps going on and on. He's disgusting! He was promoting himself every chance he got when Michael died. Of coures he wants someone to pay..he wants the money.

I think Mr. Joe Jackson should be the first to pay b/c w/o all his abuse then possibly MJ's life might have played out a little differently.
Overdose or other means it was his time to go.

His face always looks like it's melting ... too bad his heart didn't when it came to all things concerning MJ's life and death! My question is: Why weren't the other kids tramatized by this melting blob of flesh?!

Maybe Joe ought to pay. He was the one who was abusive to Michael, gave him low self esteem and robbed him of his childhood. All the things that caused pain in his life, the pain Michael was running from by using drugs.
