Paris Jackson Claims That Michael Jackson Was Murdered

In a front cover interview that will have tabloids all over the world frothing at the mouth, the daughter of Michael Jackson has told Rolling Stone that she believes her father was murdered – and reveals a lot more about her childhood

The daughter of Michael Jackson, Paris Jackson, has claimed that her superstar father was murdered in 2009 in what she describes as a 'setup’.

The 18-year-old has made the claim in an interview with the Ameican rock ’n‘ roll magazine, Rolling Stone. During the interview, she insists that her dad would drop hints about people being out to get him.

Paris Jackson was just 11 years of age when Jackson died from cardiac arrest in 2009. The medical verdict was that his death was caused by a lethal combination of a variety of prescription drugs. Michael Jackson's personal doctor Dr. Conrad Murray was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter and was sentenced to four years in prison over his death.

During the course of the interview, it becomes clear that Paris Jackson does not blame Dr. Murray for her father's death. She suggests that something more sinister happened and says that she wants 'justice'. Paris also discusses being raped, acknowledges her struggles with drug use, and reveals that she has survived 'multiple' suicide attempts, made during the course of her short life.
