Crime writer Aphrodite Jones on Michael Jackson's death
Posted: 04:26 PM ET
Best-selling true crime writer Aphrodite Jones has been covering Michael Jackson for years. On her TV program, True Crime with Aphrodite Jones, she has set out to prove that the allegations of child abuse and the fallout from his criminal trial were as responsible for his death last year as the drugs he was taking.
True Crime with Aphrodite Jones: Michael Jackson airs Thursday, April 29th on Investigation Discovery. Jones spoke to the LKL Blog about her thoughts on the Jackson case. The interview has been edited for clarity and content.
LKL Blog: You've spent years looking at Michael Jackson, his legal troubles and the man that he was. In terms of connecting the dots for your program, tell me a little about what you learned.
Aphrodite Jones: I think what I learned is that we really forgot, while Michael Jackson was alive, that he was a human being. We made him into a caricature. The interesting for me is that nobody after the acquittal of Michael Jackson turned around and said, "gee, wait a minute, we reported only what we could to dig up dirt and never considered that this man has no place to turn now." Frankly, the media ran after him harder after the acquittal.
It all got turned around on Jackson, in a big way. I think people don't realize -- when Mihcael Jackson did anything, like the baby-dangling incident, it was blown out of such proportion because everybody made him out to be a freak.
LKL Blog: There's no denying his talent but he was such a polarizing person. People just wanted to know every detail -- why do you think people had that kind of reaction to him?
Jones: First of all, Michael Jackson broke the color barrier. And he did it in such a way, with his music, with his friendships and later with his vitiligo. Here's someone whose life was dedicated to not looking at races, being of only one color. His music united the world. He went to every country in the world with his music. If his music landed there, he usually went. And he embraced people of every culture. Not many entertainers when you think about that really have that kind of stronghold or embrace of people in China, people in Singapore, people in Thailand. My book [Michael Jackson Conspiracy] has been translated around the world. In Japan, China, Taiwan, France, Italy, all over Europe.
LKL Blog: The theory that you're operating on in the show -- that Jackson never recovered from the allegatio

Beautiful ❤
❤❤❤
I love this- he's adorable, handsome, he looked and sounded like an angel, he was shy, humble, calm, polite, hilarious and badass when he had to be badass- Rip Michael Jackson August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009- I wish I was born during that time to at least see him once but at least I can see this now and we share the same bday month which I found out when I did my first project on him- how he's talking to the kids is adorable- Prince sitting on Michael's lap is also adorable- I love these clips- the Christmas scene is adorable- 6:44 not them randomly calling Michael Applehead and he doesn't realize their talking to him lol- I love this video a lot-
Prince saying we should live in a castle dadddy me:U LIVE IN A CASTLE😂 the way he speaks is so cute🥹
3:42-4:45- ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Sinto que não pode ver los crescer. Sentimos saudades Michael Jackson
Prince learnt to talk so early in his childhood. He was quite talkative and even to this day prince speaks so well
Michael was the king getting down with the Brady's
Amor mio
I hate that this happened to him as was the start of him taking pain killers.😢
❤❤❤❤❤
❤alavju majkell xhekson ❤
💖💖🥰
To add then Michael alone!! 🥰
Grew up with both!! Cool!!
I strongly believe I can get pregnant purely by watching him lick his lips alone. There’s never been, nor will there be, a man as beautiful and insatiable as Michael wheeoowww… 🤭🥵🤰🏻
sa douceur quand il parlait avec ses enfants suffit de comprendre que ct un père adorable❤️ un chanteur danseur irremplaçable et sa mort est suspect car dans ses chansons ils prévenaient de ce que l’on voit mtn une personne inoubliable 👍💕
You are her father and always be To Paris Lester 😅😂😅
It's criminal more like how he was persecuted and criticized by the media for so long. Wanting to be married and be with his children, we live in a very hateful world full of snakes.😢 😢😢😢😢😢
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌠🌠😍😍😍😘😘😘😍😍😍

❤❤❤❤💖🙏
Michael war ein stolzer und großartiger Vater er liebte seine Kinder über alles❤❤❤❤❤
Michael Was NOT A Bad Guy. He Was The Best & Good Guy, With A Heart Of Gold. Many People Misunderstood Him, Including His Brothers & Sisters. May His Soul Rest In Peace. I Love Him.
Great father,,,
tan lindos
I miss Michael Jackson October 26, 2023
He is a good daddy
❤........,....
Is So Sad that Michael Jackson was no longer here to see his Children Growing Up ! I'm Sure he would've bin very Proud. I MISSED HIM SO MUCH😒! We Fans Love and Michael you like CRAZY ❤
I was about to go get my hair done when I saw the breaking news flash across the screen. I remember running across the yard to my cousin's house and telling him. He told me I was lying. Then it popped up on his TV and all I could hear my cousin yell was, "He dead! He dead!" He was indeed a musical genius.
So lucky these children with a father so kind and the most famous star in the world..
Michael Jackson sir, you were a very good father, the people who used to say bad things about you are very bad thinking and low level people.
i love you Michael🥰🥰❤❤❤❤
От африканца не может быть белый ребёнок это не его ребёнок

Michael Jackson was a Good Father. His children will be also good parents. The saying goes, a good mango tree bears good gruits. It's already 2023. The children are already big. We have heard only good news about them. Congratulations MJ,for a job well done. Rest in peace my idol. Your children sre doing well.
