Dr Conrad Murray, the man jailed for the death of Michael Jackson in 2009, has made shocking claims about the late Joe Jackson. MJ’s former doctor filmed a video of himself giving a monologue on the Jackson patriarch, dubbing him ‘one of the worst fathers to his children in history.’ He alleged that Joe ‘chemically castrated’ Michael as a teenager to cure his acne and to keep his voice high pitched. ‘The cruelty expressed by Michael that he experienced at the hand of his father,’ the 65-year-old said. ‘The fact that he was chemically castrated to maintain his high-pitched voice is beyond words.’ There have been theories that Michael was injected with hormones to delay puberty.
He continued: ‘I knew and cared for Michael very well and he told me of the many sufferings at the hands of his father he encountered, It was dreadful, beyond imagination and words.’ Closing the video, Conrad told the camera: ‘It is said that only the good die young … I hope Joe Jackson finds redemption in hell.’ After MJ’s death in 2009, Dr Conrad Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter and served two years behind bars. At the time of Michael Jackson’s death, the singer was said to have had a fractious relationship with his dad, even writing Joe out of his will.
