  • EXCLUSIVE: Michael Jackson’s doctor Conrad Murray is set to cause new anguish for the family of the late singer after giving a shocking new interview about the star’s father Joe Jackson. The disgraced 65-year-old medic - who was found guilty and jailed for the King of Pop’s manslaughter – has made astonishing claims about the family patriarch just over a week after his death. Jackson, who was the brains behind the Jackson 5 group, died in LA on June 27 aged 89 with his wife Katherine by his side. But just days after Joe’s death, Murray unleashed a brutal verbal attack and branded him one of the “worst father’s in history” in a video obtained by US website ‘The Blast’. In other shocking claims he also addressed allegations that pop singer Michael – who died at the age of 50 on June 25, 2009 – was chemically castrated as a child via hormone injections to delay puberty and maintain his high-pitched voice. The former doctor said in the video: “Joe Jackson was one of the worst fathers to his children in history. “The cruelty expressed by Michael that he experienced at the hands of his father, particularly the bad treatment and moreover, the fact that he was chemically castrated to maintain his high pitched voice is beyond words. “I knew and cared for Michael very well and he told me of the many sufferings at the hands of his father that he encountered. “It was dreadful and beyond imagination and words. “I would not shed a single tear for the passing of this cruel and evil man, Joe Jackson. “It is said that only the good die young. I hope Joe Jackson finds redemption in hell.” Michael Jackson was under the care of Murray at the time of his passing in 2009. The doctor was subsequently convicted of involuntary manslaughter and served two years in prison for administering the lethal dose of the powerful anesthetic, propofol, that killed the pop star. In 2010 Joe Jackson filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Murray but later dropped the

  • EXCLUSIVE: Great white sharks have mysteriously vanished from one of their most popular hunting grounds in South Africa leaving tourism bosses baffled as to what has driven away one of their biggest money spinners. Theories include a fear of Orca's who have been targeting the apex predators tearing them open to eat their fatty livers as well as pollution, climate change and over fishing of much of the great whites natural prey. Between 2010 and 2016 shark spotters recorded an average of 205 great white sightings a year in False Bay which is a 600 square mile section of the Atlantic Ocean near tourist hot spot Cape Town. In 2018 they were only 50 sightings of the deadly predators made famous by the Hollywood blockbuster Jaws and so far this year not a single one of the much-feared great white shark has been spotted. And it has been two years since the Shark Spotters Applied Research Programme has picked up a signal from any of the great white’s that had been tagged by scientists and were resident in False Bay. This comes after 5 great white sharks were washed up along the South African coastline in 2017 with gaping wounds on their side with their livers having been bitten out by two killer whales in the area. The killer whales bite a large slit in the side of the great whites after attacking as a pair and then suck out the fatty liver which is 600lb meat delicacy in a phenomenon that has only recently been discovered. The two Orca’s responsible – known as Port and Starboard as their dorsal fins hang to the left on one and to the right on the other – spurned their natural prey like seals having developed a taste for shark.
