Showdown between Howard Mann / Katherine Jackson and MJ Estate

TMZ Live saying they will have a story re the money side with Katherine, Joe, etc. within the hour.
 
Its shockingly unbelievable that MJ Estate did not buy all the items from the storage including the unreleased tracks and pics, and all the Jackson family items, and let them to whoever could buy them... like this Mann.

Its unbelievable.
 
If MJ wanted all that stuff in storage, he would have put a stop to it before all that stuff was sold. Mann bought it fair and square. Looks like a case of stiff shit to admins of the estate.

Well Michael wanted his stuff back. First of all it was family storage and Michael said he didn't know that storage had his personal items. In 2004 he had a lawsuit against Vaccaro for $100M in damages. At that time Vaccaro was threating Michael with releasing personal information such as sex toys, nose sketches etc. Then the case got dropped because most probably with the other trial happening this wasn't something that Michael could focus on.

most of it happened before the estate took over.
Vaccaro had the ownership of storage sometime in the late 1990s when Joe didn't pay the bills.
Michael had a lawsuit against him in 2004 which later he dropped.
Later in that year he also said he sold some of items to an international buyer.
Estate came to an agreement with him to get some items but in 2009 he claimed those items were stolen and sold at auction without his knowledge.

Now suddenly they turn up in the possession of Mann.

anyway I also think these demos could be very old. This is a quote from an old story

Vaccaro managed to win a trove of Jackson memorabilia, including roughly 60 unreleased master tapes from the King of Pop, containing early demos never before heard by the public.
"It's the real Michael Jackson -- when he was 14, 15 years old," said Vaccaro

Why is it that family members don't consult their lawyers before entering into agreements with persons who's true intentions are'nt known to them upfront?

The Family and The Estate needs to work together or more of this type of thing will continue to happen!

Thats partially right, but Mann offered all the items to Katherine a few months ago.
At least, MJ Estate could look for the items and buys them for any price, at least because of the unreleased tracks, in fact demos. and personal things.

The other thing is that Janet was totally passive and did nothing, and in 2009, or even in 2008, when it was clear that Michael signed a deal with AEG, he personally could buy all the items.

Nothing is - suddenly... :doh:

Like Ivy said, MJ and Janet put a stop a this in a Nevada Court. Vaccaro promised to return some items. But strangely, they were stolen or sold.

Sorry, but the executors are doing the right thing
 
So Mann bought the stuff from Vaccaro?

Vaccaro got the ownership of a storage locker after Jackson's didn't pay the bill.
He also used to have a pay per view website (jacksonvault) to show the items.

so by the way it's reported it looks like Mann got the stuff from Vaccaro.
 
Re: TMZ: Friends Say Katherine Jackson is Joe's Puppet

The estate has put this guy on notice before so he is well aware of who they are and what they will do to him. And now you see why Michael did not leave his Mother or any other family member in charge



Yes! quite smart that Michael Joseph Jackson. Mom Katherine should know better than that, c'mon now!!!
 
Re: TMZ: Friends Say Katherine Jackson is Joe's Puppet

Randall is whispering into her ear just like the beloved husband Joe and the rest of the slime balls at times like this I feel for Katherine but then again, she let's it happen. She's being taken care of for the rest of her life, she's living a comfortable life thanks to the fact that 1 of her 9 kids, hit it big (Janet did too but Michael's in another league). She should thank Jehova for all that he's given her through her son and step down. There is no need for side business' and under table money only if .. ppl were gracious enough. Katherine with all due respect needs to stand up look behind and learn from her past mistakes. What makes my blood boil is that Michael's three children are around such slimeballs, the children that Michael protected and loved so damn much just, just b/c some people want more more of everything. Like you said she should be enjoying her golden years, she's already a lady in her upper years, she is no naive 20 year old anymore. Michael's wishes need to respected, at least now that the eve of his first year anniversary is approaching his wishes need to respected, and not dismissed. The best way Michael protected his children was to let them gain control at an old age. Michael Jackson was a wise man way ahead of his time may God bless him and his children.

So true so true. I just wish she would stand up to Joe and Randy and all the slime balls whispering in her ear. Just let the estate handle MJ business Katherine, PERIOD!! Respect your son's wishes. He clearly wanted the estate to handle it not your money grabbing husband and other family members.
 
Why no one asked, why a DEVOUT Jehovah's witness is in business with a gay porn producer & a nude online gaming site owner.

Is money that important to the Jacksons that they are willing to go against their own values?
 
I think the estate should attack them with everything they can. I remember this scenario where this guy from the stotage unit was told he must return the items and he said they were stolen. If I am not mistaken, by law, if you buy stolen porduct even if it was fair and square (and it was stolen becuase the person who sold it did not own it and was orderd to return it) then you are SOL. You have to return the merchandise.
 
Hey remember they guy that was selling the fans letters in e-bay...he said he found them in a storage locker...I wonder if that is this clown?????

there is no evidence of the religion of whoever you are talking about. after a time, several different religions were mentioned, within that family. JW was only in the early years. also, the guy probably might have not revealed anything about his past. most shady people don't.
 
every day there is new drama .
from all this i can see priorities of jackson family ,it is always about money .i can imagine them doing all kind of sleazy deals and them Michael clearing their mistake .
that is why i am more worried about kids .
up till now joe was in lime light now Katherine and we will be seeing randy .....saving a day:doh:
he is really focusing on getting custody of mj3,that is why all this is coming out.in plain view he is throwing his mother under a bus.

Katherine Jackson's new business partner is a front to allow Joe Jackson to exploit his wife, sources tell RadarOnline.com.

Eighty-year-old Katherine, who runs Michael's estate, has reportedly entered into a business relationship with Howard Mann, the Canadian-based president of the naked women's wrestling league.
The pair are publishing a book -- "Never Can Say Goodbye: The Katherine Jackson Archives" -- that will be released this week, with a retail price of $59.99.

But a family insider tells RadarOnline.com that Jackson patriarch Joe is secretly behind the business arrangement.

Paris Turns Her Room Into A Shrine To "Daddy" Michael, Says Katherine Jackson

"Jackson is being financially exploited by her estranged husband," said the source.

"Joe is behind the book that Mann is publishing.

"He introduced Howard to Katherine and he is the one pressuring Katherine into these deals."

Katherine met Mann five months ago.

Joe, who spends most of his time in Las Vegas, is requesting an allowance from Jackson's estate, even though the King of Pop intentionally left his father out of the will.

Katherine's powerhouse attorney Adam Streisand is monitoring the situation closely, we're told.


"He is completely aware of it... Adam only has Katherine's best interests, and is advising Katherine accordingly," dished our source.

"Joe is out for one person -- Joe.


"While the rest of the family will be privately mourning, Joe is out there just trying to get what he can out of the terrible tragedy of Michael's death."
 
I will never say a bad word about Mrs Jackson because to me the biggest problem is the fact that her children are sitting around letting it happen. Adam Streisand and the estate will make sure nothing goes to far but the Jacksons some of them to let this happen to there eighty year old grieving mother is just disgusting

Katherine and Rebbie are both still Witnesses. but I beleive her comment is directed at Katherine.
 
The only ones screaming about this book are the fans. Have not heard a word about this book from the estate and when you look at this book the pics seem to be years old and seen before. Do what I plan to do don't buy it.

well...not to go offtopic..but the family seems like a mystery to me...they allowed for an autopsy...i didn't know if that was JW approved..

but..anyway...again..this guy might have not told Katherine about himself..

Color me stupid- but since when is Mrs. Jackson running the Estate??? I love how they this outlet plays stupid.
 
I think folks are trying to trip her up...taking advatage of her when at her age should be just chillin and taking care of PP&B. Everytime I look up, here's Mrs. Katherine being put into an uncompromising situations, (business deals).

i agree. but it's no surprise. this is for these vultures, the ultimate senior citizen con festival. they have found their DREAM senior citizen to con.

and i already know that conning senior citizens has been a big recent problem in the united states.

JWs are not against autopsies. (I know, I'm sorry to go off topic as well). Katherine might not of known about him, but I am just upset that her children are not protecting here from all of these no goods. It's just really, really sad.Mj had so much he was carrying on his shoulders. And now it seems a part of that is now on Katherine.
