Her words painted a picture of the brother she had known.“I don't think we'll find a person as talented, a person who thought the way he thought. A person with the heart that Michael had, people aren't that way anymore. He was special. He wasn't God, but he was certainly God-like. He was the closest thing to a god that I knew,” she told Walters.La Toya Jackson had been among the first relatives to reach Michael’s bedside when he died, and she stepped into several responsibilities immediately afterward, signing his death certificate, becoming the legal guardian of his body, and helping the Jackson family plan the funeral and memorial service held in Los Angeles.Us Weekly noted that La Toya Jackson had long spoken frankly about enduring abuse alongside her siblings suffered under Joe Jackson, their father. In an interview with Regis Philbin and Kathie Lee Gifford in 1991, she recalled,“It was very, very hard. My father was very strict. He beat us. My brothers were grown and he would take his fist and he would punch them and knock them down the steps constantly.”Joe rejected claims of abuse during a 2009 CNN interview, yet he acknowledged using physical discipline in earlier conversations. “Yeah, I whipped my kids, and back then, there was nothing wrong with that,” he told The Chicago Defender in 2007.“Nowadays, people want to call the police on you. The people complaining about what I did got whippings from their parents too.”La Toya Jackson’s past grief over Michael’s final moments returns to spotlight:"Burning (Beoning)" Red Carpet Arrivals - The 71st Annual Cannes Film Festival - Source: GettyABC News reported in September 2009 that Michael Jackson’s autopsy concluded he died from a fatal mix of drugs, including the powerful anesthetic propofol. Dr. Conrad Murray, who had been treating the singer in his final months, admitted giving him propofol but denied administering anything “that should have killed him.” He explained to investigators that he had been trying to ease Jackson off the drug by using a series of other sedatives.When Barbara Walters pressed La Toya Jackson on whether she believed Murray had murdered Michael, she voiced her uncertainty with a blunt repetition:“Something went wrong. Something went wrong.”She went further, speaking about the widely discussed claim that Murray had asked Michael’s eldest son, Prince, to help when the singer stopped breathing.“He called Prince ... Prince ... watched him do this, Barbara. And you don't do that to a child. You don't do that to a child, especially when you knew prior to asking that child to come up, that Michael was no longer alive,” she explained.La Toya Jackson said she believed her brother had died long before the 13-year-old was brought into the room and viewed the moment as an attempt “to show that [he] had nothing to do with this.”Michael’s legacy continues to unfold in other ways. His nephew Jaafar Jackson, the son of Jermaine Jackson and Alejandra Genevieve Oaziaza, prepares to step into the role of the “King of Pop” for the 2026 biopic Michael.
