Jermaine Jackson Knocks down Tab Report, Threatens Lawsuit – MB#303

Jermaine Jackson Knocks down Tab Report, Threatens Lawsuit – MB#303 MARCH 7 2006 – Maybe if Michelle Caruso, Diane Dimond and Joe Scarborough were forewarned that Jermaine Jackson (J. Jackson) would appear live on CNN’s Larry King Live, they wouldn’t have looked so foolish, as they feasted on the words of apparently manufactured hot garbage from the latest wannabe Jackson “scandal”. That ‘hot garbage’ – an alleged book proposal — claims Jermaine Jackson is supposed to have made wild and rather unbelievable allegations about Michael and Joe Jackson, his children, and the family’s past. He is supposed to have shopped those specific ideas around for publication in 2003. The desperation for another Jackson scandal is now blaringly apparent even to those who earlier wouldn’t have given any of these Jackson stories the time of day. The media, however, never seems to tire of shooting themselves in the foot. Whatever credibility problems exist, they only have themselves to blame.

Two people plead guilty to recording Michael Jackson on plane

Two people plead guilty to recording Michael Jackson on plane ASSOCIATED PRESS 8:18 p.m. March 6, 2006 LOS ANGELES – Two men pleaded guilty Monday to federal charges of secretly videotaping Michael Jackson more than two years ago as he flew to Santa Barbara with his attorney to surrender in a child-molestation investigation. Jeffrey Borer and Arvel Jett Reeves admitted they installed two digital videorecorders to record “a professional entertainer” and his lawyer as the pair traveled on a private jet from Las Vegas to Santa Barbara in November 2003, according to their plea agreements. The entertainer they recorded was Michael Jackson and his attorney at the time was Mark Geragos, although they are not cited by name in the plea agreements. Jackson was later found not guilty of the child molestation charges. Borer and Reeves each pleaded guilty to one felony count of conspiracy before U.S. District Judge A. Howard Matz, said Thom Mrozek, spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office in Los Angeles.

Bahrain Jackson Fans Pleased With Pop Star

[b]Bahrain Jackson Fans Pleased With Pop Star[/b] By DONNA ABU-NASR MANAMA, Bahrain Mar 1, 2006 (AP)— For the people working at Bahrain’s malls, the person covered head to toe in a black veil, gloves and glasses appeared to be a rich, doting Saudi mother, leaping from one aisle to the next to select children’s shoes, clothes and toys. But why would a woman wear a man’s shoes? Why the bodyguards? And why did the person’s fluid movements seem so familiar? “It was the way he moved that made me sure it was Michael Jackson,” said Radio Shack salesman Sharfudeen Kadeer Meera. “He shops the way he dances, going from one place to the other at dizzying speed.” Since his June acquittal on child molestation charges in California, Jackson has been living on the island nation of Bahrain, the guest of Sheik Abdullah bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the son of Bahrain’s king.
