Jackson Family Battles Over Michael's Body

FoxNews.com and the New York Post are reporting that a tug-of-war over Michael Jackson's body is going on amongst Jackson family members.

Some family members, including father Joe Jackson and Jermaine Jackson, want to bury Michael at Neverland Ranch while others, including mother Katherine, want to abide by Michael's wishes (he expressed that he'd never go back to the ranch after his acquittal).

According to Fox:

Joe Jackson and Michael’s brother Jermaine are adamant that the pop icon should be buried at his Neverland ranch in Santa Barbara, mainly because the family could earn millions from a Graceland-like museum at the site.


It is reported that Jackson's body is being stored at a crypt owned by Berry Gordy of Motown.

There's one other problem: it is illegal to bury a body on private property in California.

Since toxicology tests are "incomplete and Jackson’s brain still in the hands of state investigators, Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said there were no plans to bury the body yet," according to Fox.

These disputes (and others) may end up in court for a final decision.
