The late Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris Jackson was only 11 years old when her father passed but has claimed that the ‘King of Pop’ was in fact murdered as part of conspiracy.

The 18-year-old said that she believed her dad’s death was a ‘setup’ in an interview with Rolling Stone Magazine. She told the music publication that her father was paranoid that someone was out to end his life.

“He would drop hints about people being out to get him. And at some point he was like, ‘They’re gonna kill me one day’,” Paris said.

“It’s obvious. All arrows point to that. It sounds like a total conspiracy theory and it sounds like bulls***, but all real fans and everybody in the family knows it. It was a setup. It was bulls***.”

The pop star’s personal physician Dr Conrad Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to four years for giving Jackson a lethal combination of prescription drugs. While Paris still holds Murray responsible, she said their was something more sinister at play.

The teen also told the magazine that she had tried to commit suicide multiple times in the past after being raped as a teenager and had long struggled with depression and drug addiction.

Jackson is now sober and said her years dealing with her father’s sudden death has changed her into a ‘completely different person’.

“I was crazy. I was actually crazy. I was going through a lot of, like, teen angst. And I was also dealing with my depression and my anxiety without any help,” she said.

 

The teen is working as a model and hopes to get into acting, while she is currently dating 26-year-old Michael Snoddy.
