Joe Jackson's Partner was a Crook

Posted Jul 16th 2009 1:35AM by TMZ Staff

Joe Jackson's Partner was a CrookWe've learned Joe Jackson's business partner for his new record label is a convicted felon.

Marshall Thompson, who Joe famously introduced during a news conference a few days after MJ's death, served 366 days in federal prison back in 2001 after pleading guilty to two counts of conspiracy to commit extortion in Illinois.

Thompson — a retired cop — conspired with active duty officers to sell police badges to various businessmen for $1,000 to $2,500 a pop.

According to federal docs, the businessmen bought the badges so they could get the perks of being a cop — carrying a concealed weapon, parking in restricted areas and “receiving discounts for goods and services” … we're guessing that includes donuts.

How do we know the officialls involved in the MJ case are evn real policemen/women, coroners/ DEA?????

I'm getting the impression the Jacksons are haging out with all sorts just to stay in the news.

TMZ just learned this?
You can tell he's a crook just by looking at him

The "officials" didn't look real to me. They looked "staged" like those body guards in Montreal when the big Pam Andersen thing was going on .... remember that?

Funny how in the beginning the media coverage kept showing "MJ" wrapped up in that white sheet in that helicopter/gurney shot ... without ONCE explaining what we were watching!

Unlike with other "sudden deaths" and "international tragedies", never did we hear anything like that somber-toned news anchor narrating something like,

"and now we're watching as Michael Jackson is being transported from ... to ..."

Or at least I NEVER heard it ... it was only the "talking heads" going at it as they showed that random bit of footage over and over ..

Wherever, whatever, have a nice day !
