Michael Jackson Murdered For His Music Publishing?!

Today, June 25 2011, marks the two-year anniversary since the sudden death of Michael Jackson.

With each passing day, his sister LaToya is convinced the King of Pop was murdered by his personal physician in a conspiracy plot that even Michael had premonitions about.....

Latoya spills some of family secrets in her new memoir book, “Starting Over"....

“Dr. Murray was a fall guy, and I do know that this was a conspiracy and Michael told me repeatedly that he was going to be murdered,”

“They were going to kill him because of his publishing and he went into details about the people and things of that nature… I decided to let people know what really happened to him at the end of the book because that’s a part of my life as well.”

Latoya said someone, somewhere knows what really went down on that fateful day, June 25, 2009, and she’s hoping that they’ll soon come forward with the truth.

“The investigation with the way it’s going is focusing on Dr. Murray and I have tried to point and show them that we need to go in a direction and investigate further and deeper into other people,”

she continued.

“But they have no interest in doing that. I would like to see justice for all parties and all people that were involved in this murder.”

MJ's Family Lashes Out At Dr. Conrad Murray: "He Killed Him!"

Michael Jackson Scared He Would End Up Working For McDonalds???

Michael Jackson was so worried he couldn't perform his London concerts in 2009 ... he worried out loud he would end up working behind the counter at McDonald's.

Karen Faye -- Michael's hairstylist for a quarter century -- was interviewed by LAPD detectives days after MJ died.

Faye told cops,

"He was scared to death because AEG was funding everything. He said he would have to work at McDonalds if he didn't do these shows."

Faye also told investigators she believed Michael was "self-sabotaging" with drugs because he couldn't do all 50 shows. Faye said she believed Michael needed psychological help because he was losing so much weight -- adding,

"I thought he was under the influence of something."

Faye says Michael's assistant told her MJ was seeing Dr. Arnold Klein 3 to 4 times a week and was exhibiting signs of drug use. Days before Michael died, when MJ seemed to be more lucid, she asked Michael's manager if he knew why Michael had taken a turn for the better. His response, according to Faye --

"'Cause Klein is out of town."

Dr. Conrad Murray Keeps His Medical License In Nevada!

Conrad Murray just cashed in on some Vegas luck -- because he can keep practicing medicine in Nevada.

Sources at the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners say,

"Nevada law does not currently allow us to swipe his license just because a judge ruled on it."

As we previously reported -- Murray's California medical license was recently suspended as a condition of bail in his manslaughter case.

The Texas Medical Board has yet to decide what to do with the Doc's license.

Chris Brown Reveals Him & Jamie Foxx Were Meeting Up w/ Michael Jackson The Day He Died

Chris Brown just revealed that him and Jamie Foxx were on their way to see Michael Jackson rehearse for his final tour on the afternoon the singer died.

Breezy said that he and Foxx were on their way to Staples Center in Downtown Los Angeles to see the King of Pop practice his dance routines for the This Is It tour on June 25, 2009, the afternoon that MJ died.

He said,

'Me and Jamie Foxx were going to see him and [someone called] and they were like 'Hold up. He didn't show up yet'.

'And then we got the call later and it was devastating.'

Chris Brown had lots of skeptics the day he cried during his MJ Tribute at the B.E.T awards, but maybe this had a lot to do with it.

Michael Jackson Trial To Be Televised

Dr. Conrad Murray's manslaughter trial in the death of Michael Jackson will be televised.

Judge Michael Pastor handed down the surprise order today.

The trial will not only put the spotlight on Jackson's death, but the manner in which the medical community treats celebrities.

Opening statements should begin the first week in April.

MJ's Doctor Gets Medical Lisense Suspended! (DETAILS)

Dr. Conrad Murray's medical license has just been suspended.

Judge Michael Pastor just ordered the suspension, as a condition to Dr. Murray's bail in the Michael Jackson manslaughter case.

The Medical Board of California has asked the court twice before to yank Murray's license, to no avail. But minutes after ordering Murray to stand trial, Judge Pastor granted the request.

Dr. Murray has 24 hours to notify the medical boards in Texas and Nevada of Judge Pastor's decision.

It's a devastating blow to Murray, because he needs to practice to make enough money to pay his legal team. Murray's team believes the move is designed to take away his right to defend himself in the manslaughter trial.
