Janet Jackson Blames Michael's Estate Executors for Family Feud

August 04, 2012 Hot Topics

Janet Jackson tweeted a statement from her attorney, Blair G. Brown, Friday night, questioning the validity of Michael’s will and blaming the executors of the estate for the family’s recent fighting. She’s not alone. The letter is on behalf of Randy and Rebbie, too.

The siblings are skeptical of the will because Michael was supposedly in New York, not California, the day it was signed. Janet, Randy and Rebbie also state that they will gain nothing financially if the will is found invalid and that Michael’s children, Prince, Paris and Blanket will remain the beneficiaries.

“What will be gained by a finding of invalidity is that the executors will be replaced and the estate and the guardianship will be managed in a manner that is in the best interests of the children, which is what Michael wanted," Janet's attorney wrote in the statement.

The missive also points out that “the individuals who stand to lose by a finding that the will is invalid, are, of course, the executors (John Branca and John McClain) and those on the executors’ payroll. “

In addition, the Jackson siblings also accuse the executors of trying to “damage fundamental relationships” with a “negative media campaign” filled with “preposterous” reports of their mother being kidnapped and the physical and verbal abuse of a child.

The letter closes with, “Janet, Randy and Rebbie will continue to press forward in their search for the truth in order to carry out the wishes of their brother Michael.”

HOW is either Janet Jackson OR her attorney going to say that the executors causing drama/tension in the family, when they are looking out for the children? Katherine just told the judges that she was kept in the dark in regards to everything going on (while she was spirited away to AZ under the advice of some DR she claims she didnt know and these same vultures she calls children, told her that the 'kids were alright') and does NOT want to continue going after the executors, that they ARE doing a fine job.

The childrens own GAL appointed said that the siblings of MJ are the ones causing the drama, and she fears for the childrens safety (in light of finding out that they attempted to kidnap them from CA to take them to AZ - they did NOT have the right NOR permission to remove them from their own home, much less the state, clearly these siblings are suffering from delusions of grandeur, and believe they are above courts and judges) and wanted MJ's siblings ordered to have NO contact with the MJ's children, and to stay away from THEIR home.

ATTN: Jackson siblings. Gig is up. Time to move on and let these kids grow up the way MJ wanted: DRAMA FREE and without YOU .. or he would have appointed some/any or even ONE of you to be their legal guardians upon his demise. He did not. He knew what you were ALL about.

Michael Jackson would rather his executors and their hanger-ons benefit from his fortunes than Randy and Co. But Katherine got 40% so she should be able to pay the child support Randy and Jermaine both owe the same woman. Janet wish you had stayed above the fray; now you look pathetic too when you didn't need that. I don't see Randy winning over Prince, Paris and Blanket on this one. It is obvious that they are being well taken care of and the executors have secured a financial future that their famous pop was unable to achieve in life.

She and the siblings doing this are insane and desperate- the validity of the will has already went to the highest court and found that it was legit- California is where the will was made, and New York is where he signed it- and at least one of the executors were in charge of the will before that- they will never replace them and the only reason they want that to happen is because they know they could never be given the money so they want to choose someone to over see it who will give them what they want when they want it- the current executors are not being bullied into handing out cash freely to Katherine so she can pass it along to her kids, these executors have done a great job looking over the estate and the kids will actually have a lot of money for the rest of their lives now( when MJ died the estate was in debt)- at least someone has the best interest of the kids in mind
