La Toya Jackson has revealed that she believes her younger brother, Michael, was murdered, and has vowed to bring those responsible for the singer’s shock death to justice.

While Los Angeles police have only just confirmed that homicide is still very much a possibility in Jackson’s suspected cardiac arrest on June 25, La Toya has told U.K.’s Mail On Sunday that she knew from the get-go her brother had been killed by members of his “shadowy entourage.”

“I believe Michael was murdered,” La Toya explained. “I felt that from the start. Not just one person was involved, rather it was a conspiracy of people. He was surrounded by a bad circle. Michael was a very meek, quiet, loving person. People took advantage of that. People fought to be close to him, people who weren’t always on his side.”

La Toya also believes that this “bad circle” her brother was surrounded by was the reason he was hooked on prescription drugs, and blamed members of his entourage for supplying the Thriller singer with dangerous medications.

“They got him hooked on drugs,” she said. “He was pure and clean and then drugs came back into his system. I think it shocked his system so much it killed him.”

The results of Jackson’s toxicology tests are still weeks away, and even though police have refused to reveal what they believe to be the popstar’s cause of death, La Toya is certain the results will mirror what she has believed from the very beginning.

La Toya said: “[Michael] had needle marks on his neck and on his arms and more about those will emerge in the next few weeks. I cannot discuss that any further as I may jeopardise the investigation. I can, however, say that I have not changed my mind about my feeling that [my brother] was murdered.”

“It will all come out,” she added. “You will be shocked.”

As well as breaking her silence on what she believes to be a conspiracy surrounding her brother’s murder, La Toya Jackson has spoken out against the cruelty of forcing Michael into doing a mammoth 50 concerts in London, saying it was “impossible” and labeling the 50-year-old as the “loneliest man in the world.”

“[It was] impossible even for a healthy person to do that many shows,” she said. “Michael was fragile. He always wanted to believe the best of people. But he was meek. In the last few months, he became isolated. I believe the staff were given strict instructions that if any of the family called, not to tell him. And if any of the family came by, not to let them in.”

At the time of Michael’s death, it was rumoured that the King of Pop had turned to heavy narcotics in order to make himself sick so that he would not be forced to play the concerts he’d never wanted to do, yet still reep the financial rewards of those concerts due to a clause in the contract. La Toya’s claims that Jackson’s people were forcing him into the London tour have certainly now put weight behind those rumours.

Whatever the outcome of Michael’s autopsy, La Toya has vowed that she will get to the bottom of it all, and plans to file a civil lawsuit against anyone involved in his death – which may include Jackson’s doctor at the time, Dr. Conrad Murray – as well as pushing the investigating officers to serve criminal charges.

“I am going to get down to the bottom of this,” the 53-year-old promised. “I am not going to stop until I find out who is responsible. Why did they keep the family away? It’s not about money. I want justice for Michael. I won’t rest until I find out what – and who – killed my brother.

“I’m doing what I can to find out how he died. If he died of a drug overdose, then I want to find who supplied him the drugs and who first introduced him to them.”

La Toya added: “Michael didn’t have to die. We are all mourning his loss, more than anyone can ever know. But we are also determined to get to the bottom of what happened to him.”

Guards at the Scientology building in Hollywood have shot and killed a man wielding two Samurai swords.

The man, who was said to be involved with the church, showed up at noon and approached three guards and began waving two Samurai swords around. Being the caring souls that they are, the Scientology guards took no chances and shot him dead with automatic handguns.

At this stage, police at saying that it was in self defense.

There is no proof that the man wielding the swords looked anything like the person in the image above, but that is the nearest image we could get to a Samurai sword wielding lunatic.

Talking about keeping things in the family, the Enquirer reveals Britney Spears mother, Lynne’s tragic secret; she ran over and killed a 12 year old boy.

Lynne, who was 20 at the time was driving her brother to the hospital in Kentwood, LA, when she ran over the bike riding 12 year old.

She is reportedly still traumatized by his death and she doesn’t like to talk about it, preferring to forget it ever happened.

You think this would make her even more concerned about Britney’s numerous traffic infringements.

It looks like Dr. Izzie’s time is almost up at the County General Hospital, with a possible death scene coming up in her storyline.

According to several sources from the set of the hit ABC series, Grey’s Anatomy, the actress who plays Izzie, Katherine Heigl, has annoyed the show’s producers so much that they want to take her out in the most spectacular way, and killing her off seems to be high on their list of priorities.

Creator Shonda Rhimes is said to be so “pissed off” over what Heigl said in the lead-up to this year’s Emmy Awards that she wants her off the show for good. Heigl infamously took herself out of the running for this year’s awards – despite winning a ‘Best Supporting Actress’ gong last year – because she felt the writers on Grey’s “failed to give her enough good material to work with last season.” Ouch.

The animosity towards Heigl has added unneeded stress to the set.

“It’s not good there,” a source said of the Grey’s Anatomy set. “Shonda is pissed. They’re thinking of killing [Izzie] off. They want Izzie dead.”

However, killing off Heigl’s character, Dr. Izzie Stevens, may be giving the actress just what she wants. Other sources have claimed that Heigl wants to ditch the hospital drama in favour of her budding film career, and would welcome the axing of her character with open arms.

“I haven’t heard anything about that,” a rep for Grey’s producer, Rhimes, said.

When contacted, reps for both Heigl and ABC refused to comment.
