michael jackson's perilous health situation
fox news posts an interesting piece that regarding jacko's drinking and heavy use of prescription meds, plus his two year family distancing. further in the article, it talks about how jesse jackson was brought in by michael's manager to run his businesses.
It was Jesse Jackson who two years ago caused an avalanche in Michael’s finances. Jesse Jackson, sources say, interfered in Michael’s business by attempting to call Bank of America president Ken Lewis to complain that Michael was being “ripped off” in some way over his $270 million.the tidbits continue in the article.
Lewis refused to speak with Jesse Jackson. He was so annoyed by Jackson’s interference that he ordered the banker in charge of the account to sell the loans to Fortress Investments.
