JACKSON'S 'SPIDER BITE' WAS CAUSED BY HEROIN INJECTION - REPORT

A former MICHAEL JACKSON associate has shattered one of the King of Pop's most elaborate lies - told to cover up his drug use.
The late pop star's one-time video producer Marc Shaffel has revealed Jackson's 'spider bite', which was used to mask a late arrival to court during a 2002 hearing trial, was actually a self-inflicted needle wound.
Shaffel tells U.S. tabloid the Globe Jackson had been shooting up heroin when a needle broke off.
He says, "He had the IV (intravenous) stuff back then. It wasn't a spider bite. It was an IV he pulled out of his leg. The needle broke off."
Jackson showed off the wound to the Globe at the time, telling the publication, "I really was bitten by spiders. I have been in agony."

Hey, shirlmassie, when was Michael Jackson knighted? I don't believe it is so, so YOU can stop putting the heroin-user/paedophile on a pedestal. He was not a "greatest of the great" - whatever that means, since it is a subjective view. Sorry, I don't fall for the media spin as you have, his death didn't tarnish any of my memories of him, he portrayed himself as an eccentric with paedophile tendencies as well as a drug-user - can't see him becoming knighted - even posthumously.

If Sir Michael Jackson said it was a spider bite than so be it. People should really stop trying to belittle Sir Michael Jackson. If he did use heroin or not "oh well!" Sir Michael Jackson was the greatest of the great and there is nothing that anyone can say that could ruin his memory or his reputation. keep the dirt, if any swept under the rug. Stop hating and respect Sir Michael's children. However it does not make any difference now anyway what excuse Sir Michael Jackson used to be nonpresent for court. Let the "KING" rest in peace.
