REPORTS REGARDING MICHAEL JACKSON OPENING
A THEME PARK IN IRELAND ARE ERRONEOUS





Washington, D.C. ……Reports originating from Irish tabloids, being

widely reported today, that Michael Jackson plans to open a Leprechaun

theme park are erroneous and ridiculous.



Please check with this office before disseminating any information

reported out of Ireland, because most of the information reported thus

far has been inaccurate.

Conspiracy To Force Michael Jackson into Bankruptcy REVEALED

In what could be one of the biggest conspiracies in entertainment history, documents have been sent to Michael Jackson, and his representatives, which reveal a deliberate plan by some former attorneys as well as associates and advisors, to force Mr. Jackson into involuntary bankruptcy.

The documents reveal that former attorneys actively solicited other attorneys, vendors and creditors to “join in a petition to place the client in involuntary bankruptcy.”

Mr. Jackson who, on June 27, 2006, announced sweeping organizational changes, has instructed his legal team to investigate and file claims against those responsible for conspiracy, bad faith, and self dealing. These efforts may also result in civil and/or criminal charges, where appropriate. In addition, there is a strong possibility that these documents will be forwarded to the U.S. Attorney General for review and possible involvement.

“Mr. Jackson is neither shocked or surprised by these revelations,” says Raymone K. Bain, Michael Jackson’s General Manager. “Based on the timing of events that have impacted his personal and professional life in recent years, he has long been suspicious that some of those whom he entrusted to act on his behalf, and to advise him with respect to his personal and business affairs, may not have always acted in his best interests.”

Michael Jackson Scores Big In Round 1 of the Schaffel Lawsuit and Awaits Round 2 for Accounting

A jury of 6 women and 6 men turned back F. Marc Schaffel’s claims against Michael Jackson today, that Mr. Jackson owed him countless millions of dollars.

In the action, Mr. Schaffel first sought $6 million…$4 million… $3.2million, $2 million, and finally $1.5million.

In round 1, the jury awarded Mr. Schaffel $900,000. However, the jury also awarded Mr. Jackson $200,000, plus interest, for Mr. Schaffel’s fraud, conversion and breach of fiduciary duty.

Says Tom Mundell, Lead Defense Counsel, “This was a great result for Michael. The judge divided the trial into two phases. In this first phase, the jury heard all of Schaffel’s claims and one of Michael’s claims. In about two weeks, the judge will hear testimony on the rest of Michael’s claims against Schaffel. The value of Michael’s remaining claims exceeds the small net amount in Schaffel’s favor from Phase 1 of the trial, and we are confident that when Phase 2 is concluded, the overall judgment will be in Michael’s favor.”

Says L. Londell McMillan, General Counsel to Mr. Jackson, “It’s a new day for Michael Jackson. We were unwilling to pay one penny more than the amount Schaffel was owed, and the verdict proved successful. This lawsuit represents the beginning of a new approach and direction in the business of Michael Jackson.”

Michael Jackson Announces Organizational Changes

In what is the first of a sweeping restructuring of his personal and business affairs, Michael Jackson has severed ties with his long-time accounts and business managers, Bernstein, Fox, Whitman, Goldman & Sloan, with Bahrani attorneys Qays Zu’bi and Grahame Nelson, and Gut Records executive, Guy Holmes.

He has also established The Michael Jackson Company, Inc., with plans to phase out MJJ Productions.

In other related matters, he has named Spokesperson Raymone K. Bain as General Manager, and has retained N.Y.-based L. Londell McMillan and The McMillan Firm, known for business restructurings and turnarounds, to oversee legal matters pertaining to his business affairs.

Mr. Jackson has previously announced plans to record an album which he predicts will be released in 2007. His recent Japan tour was the first in what will be a line of public appearances, and he is reviewing numerous offers to tour musically, which he plans to embark upon within the next several months.

Mr. Jackson, who is currently in Ireland on personal business, plans on relocating to Europe in the near future.

He is continuing to build his management team and other appointments will be forthcoming.

STATEMENT REGARDING NEVERLAND RANCH


Washington, D.C./1:30 AM EST…. It is public knowledge that Mr. Jackson

currently resides in the Middle Eastern country of Bahrain. He therefore

decided to close his house and reduce his workforce. This is a common

practice when a residence is vacant for an extended period of time.



Reports indicating that Neverland has been closed or “shut down” for good

are inaccurate.



There will be no further comments regarding this matter.

March 6, 2006 Re: Emily Smith/ And The Editor of the Sun

Im sharing the following Email with all the Admins, Sr Staff, and Members on all Michael Jackson Message Board/Clubs/Communities as it takes all of us to unite and make things happen.


Hello:

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you so very much for your
quick response in advising the fans that I have not made any statements
whatsoever regarding the alleged book proposal.

As I indicated to you, I demanded that the reporter, Emily Smith, and
the editor of the Sun, pull the false quote attributed to me from their article.
And, they have.

This is the second time in one week that my name has been used
recklessly by members of the London media, and a false quote has been
made up under my name.

I truly hope that this is the last time I will have to deal this kind of
issue.

Again, thank you for your cooperation and kindness!

Best.

Hello All:

Please advise the fans that I have issued no statements regarding the
alleged Jermaine Jackson book proposal. And again, another British
reporter, Emily Smith of the London Sun, has made up a quote and
attributed it to me.

I have demanded that Ms. Smith, and her editor, pull this quote immediately.

The liberties that some journalists are taking by recklessly using my name
is getting out of control. This is the second time in one week, that I have
been falsely quoted by a British publication.

Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

IN ARTICLE REGARDING MICHAEL JACKSON




Washington, D.C. ….. In an article dated today’s date, March 1, 2006, released

by ContactMusic.com titled, “Jackson Shows Islam Support with Mosque,”

I am being quoted.



I have neither spoken to anyone at ContactMusic.com, issued a statement to

anyone at ContactMusic.com, nor have I been contacted by anyone at

ContactMusic.com to verify the information written regarding Mr. Michael Jackson.



The liberty that the reporter has taken, not only in falsely and recklessly using

despicable display of journalism. This action is as wrong as the information being disseminated in the article.



I am demanding a retraction.

STATEMENT OF ATTORNEY THOMAS A. MESEREAU, JR.

REGARDING MR. MICHAEL JACKSON


Attorney Thomas A. Mesereau, Jr., issues the following statement

regarding Mr. Michael Jackson:



“I am very disturbed by the false, erroneous, and self-serving reports about

the relationship between Michael Jackson, my law partner, Susan Yu, and

me.



“At the conclusion of the criminal trial in Santa Maria, CA., Michael Jackson

was acquitted 14 times. The jury acquitted him of 10 felonies and 4 lesser-

included misdemeanors. Michael Jackson was completely vindicated and

exonerated by these verdicts.



“Shortly thereafter, Michael Jackson, and his beautiful children, moved to

the Middle East. Attorney Susan Yu and I were asked to help him during

this difficult period of transition. Michael and his children were exhausted

by the terrible, unjust prosecution, and needed to start a new chapter in their

lives.



“Because Michael Jackson was our client, and is our friend, Attorney Susan

Yu and I agreed to help him, and his family, during this time of transition.

For approximately seven months, we assisted Michael Jackson in this

effort.



“We never intended to assume these obligations on a permanent

basis. For example, my love is Criminal defense. I will be in trial in

the State of Alabama during April and June, in two Capital murder cases,

in which I am representing the client free of charge. I am also assisting

in the development of a free legal clinic for the poor at a prominent

African American church in Los Angeles. Attorney Susan Yu has

other clients that she needs to attend to as well.





-2-





“We are still in communications with Michael Jackson, and his assistants,

and remain close friends. Mr. Jackson completely understands the

situation and is grateful to us for helping him with the transition. The

speculation that surrounds this situation is nothing but shallow tabloid

reporting.



“People should leave Mr. Jackson and his family alone.”

family are doing fine, and he, and his brother, Randy, wants you to
know that they appreciate all of the cards and letters that you have
sent.

"In addition, Michael sends a special thank you for all of the support you have
given to him regarding the Eminem situation. Eminem is wrong. Eminem
owes Mr. Jackson a public apology; and, the video needs to be pulled from
MTV, MTV2 and MTVEurope.

"As he's said, he is not taking this lightly. The video was demeaning and
disrespectful to him, his children, his family, and the community at large.

"He appreciates all that you have done as well as Bob Johnson, Chairman/
CEO of BET, Comedian Steve Harvey, Radio One, The Source, and many,
many others who have either written letters or spoken out on his behalf.

"We are not through in our fight. He is very strong, and we are all going
to continue in our efforts to make sure that this video is pulled, and the song
is removed from Eminem's upcoming album."

Thank you all very much!

MICHAEL JACKSON SPEAKS PUBLICLY ABOUT EMINEM’S VIDEO

On Tuesday, October 12, 2004, at 8:00AM, P.S.T., Michael Jackson appeared on
“The Steve Harvey Morning Show,” 100.3/ The Beat, a Radio One station,
regarding Eminem’s video. In an exclusive interview with Steve Harvey,
Michael Jackson made the following statement:

“I would like to thank you, Steve, Radio One, the African-American community,
my fans from around the world, and some of the members of the media, for the
support that you have given to me. I would also like to thank Mr. Robert Johnson,
Chairman and Founder of BET for pulling the Eminem video from BET’s airplay.
I appreciate very much the love and support that you all have shown me.

“I am very angry at Eminem’s depiction of me in his video. I feel that it is
outrageous and disrespectful. It is one thing to spoof, but it is another to be
demeaning and insensitive.

“I’ve admired Eminem as a artist, and was shocked by this. The video was
inappropriate and disrespectful to me, my children, my family, and the
community at large. It is my hope that the other networks will take BET’s
lead and pull it.”

###

Statement Released on Tuesday, October 12, 2004, by Mr. Robert Johnson, Chairman/Founder of BET:

“BET has pulled the video about Michael Jackson by Eminem. BET pulled
the video because we feel it is inappropriate to use our network to air a
video disparaging Michael’s character, or that of any other celebrity.

“Michael Jackson is a long-time supporter of BET, and a former ‘BET Walk
