King of Pop to have a large, public funeral
Michael Jackson lived a great, big life so it should be no surprise he’ll have a great, big funeral.
The pop icon will be laid to rest after a large public funeral, Jackson family patriarch Joe Jackson said Monday, June 27, during a press conference with Rev. Al Sharpton.
The funeral details are still being worked out, according to FoxNews.com
“We don’t have the time frame yet because we want to see when the private autopsy comes out,” Jackson said according to the Fox report.
Jackson was referring to the second autopsy paid for by his family.
When he died Thursday, Michael Jackson was a shell of his former self, according to the London Sun.
The newspaper said it obtained a copy of an autopsy preformed by officials in California.
Jackson’s body was emaciated and covered in needle marks and bruises, the newspaper said.
(UPDATE: Seems like the Sun either received bad info or simple made a bunch of stuff up.
The Los Angeles coroner’s office says details released by the Sun are bogus and came neither from a private or the county autopsy, The LA Times reports.
Custody of Jackson’s children has been temporarily granted to his parents.
Joe Jackson gave the media an update of the children during the press conference, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Joe Jackson said his son’s children are happy and around other children.
“We have kids back there that are small just like they are,” Joe Jackson said. “They was never around other kids, they’re happy.”
