What a weird tale. After Katherine Jackson was maybe kidnapped by her own children as a part of some kind of attempt to change Michael Jackson‘s will, a lot of stuff went down. You remember. The police got involved, Janet Jackson slapped little Paris, and then Katherine lost custody of the kids. And then at the end of it all, I guess Katherine was able to check her Facebook or something, and when she realized what was happening, she made that weird statement that everything was ok and she just wanted to go on vacation without having to worry about those damn kids.
Well, that was last week. This week, Katherine has a whole new story:
Katherine Jackson is strongly suggesting she was tricked into traveling to Tucson last month and BLOCKED from communicating with MJ’s children — this according to a sworn declaration by Katherine herself.
Katherine filed the declaration as part of her bid to obtain co-guardianship over Prince, Paris, and Blanket.
In the docs, Katherine claims she was scheduled to go on a road trip to New Mexico to watch her sons in concert — but on July 14th, an unnamed doctor showed up to her house and told her it was better for her to take a plane instead.
Katherine says she obliged — believing the doctor was under the orders of her longtime physician — but when she got off the plane … she found herself in Tucson, where she had been set up at a luxury resort.
According to her lawyer, “Her children took her to a spa … because she had high blood pressure.”
When she got to the resort, Katherine says her phone and iPad were taken away — and her in-room telephone was disconnected. She says her TV was also shut off.
When Katherine asked about the grandchildren, she was told “they were fine” and there was nothing to worry about. She says she did NOT know she had been reported missing and her grandkids were freaking out.
Katherine says, “At the time, I trusted the people I was with to be honest with me.”
She never said, as far as we know, who exactly were “the people I was with,” but I’m guessing it was one or two of her shady children.
But she did seek that co-guardianship, and she got it: they’re still working out all the details, but she’ll share custody with T.J. Jackson, the kids’ cousin who stepped up when the rest of his family got too crazy.
What will you come up with next, Jackson family?!
