The mayor of Michael Jackson's home town, Gary, Indiana, has revealed how the cash-strapped community paid US $5,000 to fly Michael Jackson's father and seven other people from Los Angeles to attend a July memorial service for his son.
Mayor Rudy Clay insisted Joe Jackson wasn't paid any money to attend the July 10 memorial in downtown Gary, near the Jackson family's former two-bedroom boyhood home.
"Joe Jackson came here for one reason: his son," he said. "He wanted to be with his 31 other family members who live in Gary. There was no fee for Joe Jackson to appear. Absolutely not."
