GUARDIAN : Lawyers for Michael Jacksons mother have accused the concert promoter AEG Live of contributing to his premature death in the opening salvo of what promises to a lengthy, celebrity-packed trial in Los Angeles.
Brian Panish, the lead attorney for Katherine Jackson, 82, outlined his case in opening statements on Monday in a cramped courtroom which will lay bare anew details of the performer’s life and demise in a wrongful death lawsuit.
“His stirring voice, his musical genius, his creativity and his generosity and his huge heart was extinguished forever,” Panish told a jury of six men and six women. “You’re going to hear the whole story about what happened in the death of Michael Jackson.”
