At a press conference outside the family estate in Encino, Calif., Monday afternoon, Joe Jackson reiterated that Michael Jackson's three children belong with their grandmother, Katherine, who was awarded temporary custody earlier today. "We're the parents. This is where they belong… We're going to take care of them and give them the education they're supposed to have," he said. This morning, Jackson family lawyer Londell McMillan said he didn't believe Debbie Rowe, the mother of Michael's two eldest, would try to separate the children from each other or Katherine, who has taken care of them since Michael's June 25 death. "Debbie Rowe has nothing to do with what we're doing," Joe said at the press conference. He also stated that memorial plans for Michael are still being worked out, and that there is no timeframe he could give the public. He said he wants the investigation into Michael's death to be completed before his son's funeral is held.

They are money-grubbing abusers.
Lotza azzholes and fukkin’ leeches in this whole thing. Joe and Kat – fukk ‘em both. Cousin Michael’s people? Them all be the worst. They are now stealing the fixtures off the wall and swiping all of Mike’s stuff. Deb Rowe? Nutthin’ but a fukkin white trash kunt. Only good soul is the nanny. She be okay. Dr.Murray? His medicines were what killed Mike. None of it left now… Mike’s people done raided the stash and took it all.
What a scary thought. I would be afraid of that man around the children.
What a horrible decision by the court. Seriuosly, these people are beyond shameless.
Remember — this is “temporary” custody. We haven’t heard from Debbie Rowe yet, who still has custodial rights. There’s probaby backroom negotiation with her to buy her off. She has an attorney too.
all of this is temporary until the will is produced. And there is a will. Trust me. He might have been crazy but he wasn’t stupid.
I sincerely hope he has a will, because that man looks creepy. I might be wrong, but its parents looks a lot like hungry leeches to me.
Not that Debbie Rowe looks any better though, as far as custody goes.
These kids probably are better off with a “normal” loving family, possibly out of any money hungry contenders.
keep calm…things will be better

What you people forget that Michael was still very close to his mother, and she is not a leech, his father maybe, but not his mother. And do not forget they still lost a child, and having those children there is like having part of him.
If Al Sharpton was doing his job, he would shut Joe Jackson up and get him away from the camera:

The two oldest children should have the right to make a choice on where they would like to live. It would be wise to keep all three children together. Since there seems to be a history of both physical and verbal abuse by Joe Jackson, it would be wise not to have the children raised in his presence!

Sorry to say this but those kids are doomed. Katherine Jackson might be okay in her own way but she is still with her abusive husband who beat and abused Michael throughout his childhood and never laid a finger to stop him. Shouldn’t a judge look at that before placing the children into their clutches? Why is he out promoting his projects in interviews that are supposed to be about his dead son? And why is he going to awards shows and walking red carpets just days after the death of his son. He doesn’t look sad, he has dollar signs in his eyes.
I love how most media outlets were reporting today that “Katherine Jackson” has retained custody of the children. Sounds like a PR move by the Jackson camp to conveniently try to make it seem like Katherine will be in control, when we all know it will be Joe. I wish more headlines would announce that “Joe and Katherine” retain temporary custody – the two of them are married and live together, so if Katherine has custody of the kids, so does Joe. And the thought of Joe raising children should raise the hair on all our backs….
Katherine Jackson?! Sure, I’d do her in a second! Twice in the afternoon and once more before lights out. Giggity!
