I found this article on <!-- m -->http://mjjr.net/news.php?260.250.240<!-- m -->
They denied then any kind of family intervention or his addiction to painkillers and alchool.
On June 25, 2009, their lawyer Brian Oxman, was the first one to talk about drug abuse.
When did they tell the truth: in 2007 or in 2009? The statement they made is signed.
The Jacksons: People Magazine Content Untrue and Inaccurate
In response to a new article published by People Magazine, the Jacksons have released the following signed statement:
September 07, 2007
People Magazine has followed other publications in reporting untrue and inaccurate information about Michael Jackson and the Jackson family. Of these widely reported rumors, what has become the most troubling and heinous, is that my son, and our brother, Michael Jackson, is dependent on painkillers and alcohol.
People, and other news organizations, have quoted “sources” indicating that our family has attempted a drug intervention, and engaged in an effort to take over his business affairs, because of this alleged drug and alcohol usage.
We categorically deny ever planning, participating in, or having knowledge of any kind of intervention, whatsoever. We strongly believe that these “sources” and others, no matter who they are, are making these defamatory, inaccurate, and untrue claims for monetary reasons.
Michael Jackson, and the Jackson family, has endured years of false accusations and misrepresentations.
It is time for these unfair and hurtful rumors, for profit, to end.
Thank you.
Signed,
Toriano Adaryll (Tito) Jackson
Sigmund Esco (Jackie) Jackson
Marlon David Jackson
Jermaine Jackson
Katherine Jackson

she tried an intervention with Randy, and that Michael told them that he knew it was done out of love.
So someone's playing games.
But why would they need to do an intervention a few weeks before he "died" when they supposedly had just seen him in May 09(I believe) at their parents' anniversary party? They said he even brought the kids.
I also wonder about it because in 'This Is It' he's completely coherent and on point.
You can't do that and be using.
His dancing was on point.
His speech was clear and intelligent, not slurred or nonsensical.
He was putting together the show, remembering the dance moves & lyrics, as well as making sure other people were doing what they needed to do.
He also hadn't been on tour in years, so he would have been a bit "rusty."
If he was using and rusty, I don't think he would have been as capable as he was in 'This Is It.'
I don't know what the truth is anymore.
Maybe they're just all putting out different things to confuse everyone on purpose. <!-- s:? -->:?<!-- s:? -->
This article was made in 2007 right? So who are you claiming to be a liar?

I agree with the points you made. Someone who is on drugs could not have possibly done all of that work. I think he looked better than he has in years, maybe a bit thin. But thin is fashionable in Hollywood these days.
What is weird is that that Hulk guy, lou ferrigno, was training/working out with MJ before and during the rehearsals and said that MJ was fit as a fiddle, or implying that he didn't notice any sort of fatigue or anything. I think that should be looked into again, what THE HULK said. I think he was on Larry King too, a little after the 25th of June "happened". <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) -->
It's getting really hard to know what is fact and what isn't. you will always read things from apparent "credible" sources, like CNN or whatever...but keep in mind, that the people writing these articles are STILL journalists/reporters and they always twist the truth.
