I believe Kline and Rowe are 100 percent involved in this whole mess. I also felt that some doctor(Kline or Hoffman) had purposely gave Michael some kind of drugs that change his color. Then lied and "diagnosed" Michael with Vitiligo. This is an old article I saved years ago. This is what I base this upon.

Black-white man
Liver pills turn black man white A black man who was given tablets for liver disease has won £15,000 after they turned him white. The skin of Tekeste Kahsay, 59, has turned white, except for a patch of skin across his face. Mr Kahsay, originally from Eritrea but now living in Sweden, says he feels like a black man trapped in a white man's body. Mr Kahsay was badly injured as he worked at a sawmill in Lidkoping. Blood tests revealed the first stages of liver disease which could have proved fatal. He was prescribed a drug which saved his liver but had astonishing side effects. His skin became increasingly light until he was white except for a dark "mask" on his face and ears. He has been shunned and attacked because of his strange appearance. He said: ''This is terrible. I disappeared. I was a black man inside and a white man outside. My self-confidence is gone." Mr Kahsay won £15,000 from a medical tribunal, The Mirror reports. The doctor who treated him is reported to be off work with severe psychological problems. In Mr Kahsay's homeland, he is shunned as a leper, as white pigment is considered a sign of the disease. He added: ''I am a black man and will always be a black man but I don't know who I am. But I have learned a lot about intolerance towards people of another colour.''
