BOMBSHELL galore today from Michael Jackson attorney Tom Mesereau. The following are notes from Court TV reporter Savanna Guthrie, who by the way, is an incredibly marked improvement over simply allowing Diane Dimond to solely cover this trial. Here are some of the things she reported today: (Mez = Thomas Mesereau, Jackson’s attorney) Savanna Guthrie says Jackson found these children rifling through the magazines and was horrified and took the magazines away -Mez says it’s false that Jackson showed these magazines to these kids -Mez says investigators never found any DNA from the accuser or his brother anywhere in Jackson’s bedroom -Mez said none of the alleged co-conspirators are charged. Sneddon objected. -Mez said Ron Konitzer and Deiter Weisner (Germans) came in and tried to insert themselves into Jackson’s business affairs planning to take over -Mez says Jackson gave power of attorney to Konitzer and Weisner, and that they were out there possibly up to no good -says Mez said one of Jackson’s attorneys, David LeGrand, had started an investigation into Konitzer and Weiser — LeGrand is a former securities prosecutor who knows about white collar crimes — LeGrand started investigation to see whether Konitzer and Weisner were stealing money from Jackson -Mez said no sooner did he start the investigation than Konitzer and Weisner talked Jackson into firing LeGrand —says there was an investigation prepared, but not completed -Larry King is connected through Feldman -says Mez said Feldman had lunch with Larry King where Feldman specifically told King the mother wanted money -says Mez says the mother told LA police officers she knew she had until they turned 18 to file a civil suit, so she knew the law :shock Stay tuned to the main topic discussion at MJEOL for up-to-the-minute updates, or to this page for a periodic collection of updates
