Joe Jackson is certainly not kicking back on a tropical island and swinging in a hammock in his retirement years. Instead, he has gone on a rampage, accusing AEG - the promoters of Michael Jackson's last tour - of contributing to his son's death. According to TMZ Joe's lawyer Brian Oxman will file two government agency complaints against AEG, claiming that abuse by them led to Michael's death.
Since Michael was found dead last year from profolol intoxication, the Jackson patriarch has been publicly saying that the King of Pop was physically incapable of doing the grueling number of shows that the promoters had set him up to do. Michael was originally contracted to do 10 shows for the "This is It" tour but according to Joe the promotors tacked on 40 more, bringing the number to 50 in total.
Speaking to a reporter in an exclusive interview with ABC's Good Morning America last year Joe Jackson said that: "The comeback tour was a good idea, but the wrong idea about it. There was more tours added onto it. Michael told me himself. That he agreed to 10 shows. But they went and added all these other shows. I was worried about his health."
"No artist can do those many shows back to back like that, and so I knew Michael couldn't do all those shows without some rest in between them," he added.
Watch Michael Jackson in rehearsal for the "This Is It" tour:
Oxman will reportedly file a complaint with the United States Attorney General alleging that AEG violated the Americans with Disabilities Act. The lawyer contends that AEG was well aware of Michael's disabling drug habit yet the entertainer was compelled to stick to a schedule that was taxing and debilitating.
Joe's lawyer also plans on lodging a complaint with the Medical Board of California alleging that AEG dictated Michael's medical regimen to the point where it was considered an unauthorized medical practice.
A wrongful death lawsuit against Michael's doctor Conrad Murray is also reportedly in the works according to TMZ. The doctor was Michael's physician and is charged with involuntary manslaughter in connection with the entertainer's death. Oxman will not bring AEG into the lawsuit against Dr. Murray but may name them as defendants if, during the pre-litigation process it is revealed, that the company is also to blame for Michael's death.
