For the past three years, Michael Jackson‘s family has become concerned regarding his escalating dependence on prescription drugs.
The family even staged an intervention!
“There was an intervention in Las Vegas. Janet was on the phone, but Randy, Jackie and Rebbie were there in person,” said a family insider, referring to Michael’s siblings. “Michael got pissed off. He said he wasn’t on drugs. But they didn’t believe him.”
Another source claims that Jackson got the drugs from a member of his staff, “[The aide] has contacts wherever they are.” In addition to alcohol, Michael consumed “straight morphine, Demerol and opiates like Oxycontin. He also takes Valium and Xanax.”
Jackson family attorney, Brian Oxman commented on the pop star’s drug use, “If you think that the case of Anna Nicole Smith was an abuse, it is nothing in comparison to what we have seen in Michael Jackson’s life.”
So tragic!
