When Michael Jackson’s mother Katherine was “abducted” from the home she shares with her grandchildren and held against her will in Arizona by some of her kids in July, it exposed all the greed and backstabbing that has consumed the family since MJ’s 2009 death. And in a new book, Untouchable, author Randall Sullivan further blows open the doors on what exactly went down in the hours after the King of Pop overdosed on the painkiller propofol – and how the singer's own flesh and blood has been after his millions ever since.

In an excerpt of the book obtained by Vanity Fair for its November issue, Sullivan reveals that mere hours after Michael’s death at his rented chateau in Los Angeles’ Holmby Hills, his older sister LaToya showed up with her boyfriend Jeffre Phillips and demanded to be allowed in. “We’re family and we should have access to the house,” they reportedly claimed.
Michael apparently used to put his money in black garbage bags, which he then hid under the carpets at his home. Ronald Williams, who handled security at the Holmby Hills residence, tells Sullivan that he saw LaToya and her boyfriend stuffing black garbage bags into duffel bags at the house, which LaToya denies (she says nearly all the money was gone by the time she arrived at her brother’s mansion).
