Katherine Jackson, the 79-year old mother of the late Michael Jackson, has been granted full custody of Michael`s three children, Prince Michael, 12, Paris, 11 and Prince Michael II, 7.
Under the arrangement, Debbie Rowe, the biological mother of the two eldest children, has been granted visitation rights.The arrangement brings to an immediate end any lengthy court battle.
Both parties are satisfied with the decision.
In separate statements, Londell McMillan, the attorney for Katherine Jackson said, "Mrs. Jackson and the family are pleased this matter is resolved and was handled in a caring, thoughtful and courteous manner by the parties and their representatives. We were all united in our goals to do what is best for Michael's wonderful children, and both Mrs. Jackson and Debbie Rowe were on the exact same page."
Eric George, on behalf of Debbie Rowe said, "The sole consideration between the parties was the best interests of the children."
In other Michael Jackson news, the autopsy results have been delayed once again and will not be released this week.
Police spent time this week continuing their investigation into Jackson’s personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray. It would appear that Murray has broken various codes including prescribing to an addict, excessive prescribing and unprofessional conduct.
If found guilty he could face prison for manslaughter.
