Michael Jackson Kids “Ambushed” By Family Members at Grandmother’s Home

Several of Katherine Jackson’s children allegedly “ambushed” Michael Jackson’s kids – Prince, Paris, and Blanket – at the matriarch’s home in Calabasas, California on Monday.

According to Katherine’s lawyers, “Certain Jackson family members ambushed Katherine Jackson’s home after their vehicle tore through security gates on the tails of the SUV containing Michael Jackson’s children.”

“After exiting their vehicles, Jackson family members ran up to Michael’s children as they yelled and began to aggressively grab at the cell phones in their hands,” says the statement, adding, “Out of concern for the well being of Prince, Paris and Blanket Jackson, the children were forced to temporarily leave their home and taken to a safe location. An altercation ensued shortly thereafter and law enforcement arrived at the scene.”

An L.A. County Sheriff’s spokesman confirmed there was indeed a physical altercation between two unnamed individuals, but no one was arrested.

A possible battery is under investigation, said the spokesman.

Katherine’s legal team further claimed, “Following the incident, it was learned that one of the family members who was part of the ambush admitted that a plan has been in place for the last three years to remove Katherine Jackson from her home and her beloved grandchildren.”

On Saturday, Katherine’s nephew Trent Jackson reported the family matriarch “missing” after her grandchildren were unable to get in touch with her for a week.

Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris even tweeted, “my grandmother is missing. i haven’t spoken with her in a week i want her home now.”

“If anybody sees my grandmother, please call the authorities,” she added.

Katherine, it was later discovered, is in Arizona with her daughter Rebbie – though she’s still not had any contact with Michael’s children.

Jermaine Jackson tweeted, “I want to reassure everyone (inc all sudden medical experts) that Mother is fine but is resting up in AZ on the orders of a doctor, not us.”

He noted at the time, “We are not inventing or plotting anything. We are following doctor’s advice. Period.”

Curiously, though, Jermaine was one of the family members who was on Katherine’s property in Calabasas, California on Monday when the alleged “ambush” took place.

    Jesus… I didn’t believe this story at first but it looks like something is really wrong in that house. MJs children may be better off living somewhere else with someone else.
    How is it possible that Grandma is taken away for whatever reason, and little children under her legal care don’t know a thing about it? It should have been granny herself to tell kids about this upcoming trip. And if not her then Jermaine and Rebbie and others.
    And then adults to ambush kids about being worried? Talk to them… they are not hired help who don’t need to know about these things!

    What that has to do with notifying kids legally under her care??

  • alexstorm

    I thought that all of this would have happened by now, there was always something between MJ and his brothers, probably over $$$$ Yeah I loved that line “Following doctors orders”, did he order that the kids need to have the crap scared out of them? I mean haven’t they been through enough?

    Maybe they need to find another guardian for these kids. This is one of the most dysfunctional families I have ever seen and I believe not all of the motives are good. I also don’t believe Katheryn has enough control to deal with these other family members, she is out gunned and need to find help outside of her family.

    Sounds like the Bros.& Sisters have decided that they should have the money that Michael left in the care of his Mother for his children. I’m kind of surprised it took this long. Their next move will probably be to try and have their Mother declared incompetent. I sure hope that she has a good legal team. Those siblings are certainly disgracing Michael’s memory. Money crazed idiots. No respect. I bet they kidnapped her from her home and will try to say she deserted those kids. Law enforcement needs to get involved NOW!

    Gives you more insight as to why Michael distanced himself from his family. All they seem to want is MJ’s money. Those poor kids.

    I feel sorry for those kids, they’re being pushed & pulled in so many directions. Maybe they should be with someone that’s not in that family & who is completely neutral. This is why Michael Jackson didn’t leave any of his siblings anything in his will, they’re all money hungry. I’m surprised that Janet is involved, it’s not like she’s broke or in need of some attention. I thought she was doing well. *Sigh* This family is a mess

    Sadly, these kinds of issues always come back to money, don’t they? It is very apparent that the Jackson siblings need money….and there is only person who has it these days…..Michael’s kids. His mother gets an allowance to look after them, which split between the siblings would be a nice income. I am also surprised that Janet is involved. I thought she was above that. And it is not surprising at all that Jermaine seems to be leading the way. Maybe Michael’s kids should be in Katharine’s care….she truly loves them and they seem to really love her…. and the money should be distributed by Diana Ross who is next in line as guardian to them. I am sure she would follow Michael’s wishes and she certainly doesn’t need the money. The Jackson siblings should back off and hopefully the executors of Michael’s will, will keep them away from Michael’s money at all costs. The children should end up with something good from their father’s estate.
