"Firstly, Farrah spent the last week of her life in the hospital," O'Neal said, pointing to possible holes in Jackson's story. "Secondly, why would Kate be denied access to Farrah and then be invited to her services?"
Jackson had said that O'Neal, along with Alana Stewart-Hamilton, denied Jackson access to Fawcett. She also voiced concern that Fawcett was forced against her will to sign a document handing over control of her documentary.
The last time Jackson had seen Fawcett was at an intimate gathering in February 2009 for the icon's 62nd birthday.
