Nanny reveals tragic secret life of Jackson

Maurice Chittenden and John Harlow Los Angeles

THE nanny who became “mother” to Michael Jackson’s three children has told how she regularly had to pump his stomach to remove dangerous cocktails of drugs.

Grace Rwaramba, 42, who flew from London to Los Angeles yesterday in the hope of being reunited with his children, has given a graphic account of the singer’s increasingly desperate final months.

She paints a grim picture of Jackson, sometimes penniless but deluded about his “riches”, leading a nomadic life, moving from country to country and hotel to hotel, before allegedly falling under the increasing influence of the Nation of Islam, the extremist sect.

Jackson is believed to have been taking up to eight different drugs a day, including three narcotic painkillers. Rwaramba, who is expected to be interviewed by detectives about whether she helped administer the drugs, said: “I had to pump his stomach many times. He always mixed so much of it.

“There was one period that it was so bad that I didn’t let the children see him . . . He always ate too little and mixed too much.”

The nanny says she once called in the singer’s mother, Katherine, and sister, Janet, to attempt an “intervention”, trying to persuade the singer to come to terms with his addiction. Instead Jackson turned on her, accusing her of betraying him. “He didn’t want to listen; that was one of the times he let me go,” she said.

Rwaramba, who is from Rwanda, worked for Jackson for more than a decade, starting as an office assistant before becoming nanny to his children, Michael Jr, known as Prince, aged 12; Paris, 11; and Prince Michael II, 7, nicknamed Blanket to distinguish him from his brother.

Amazing how many in the media have tried to turn a pervert who was addicted to drugs into a hero.

It’s only today that I learned that Mikey was a muzzie. Makes me care even less about one more dead addict in the world.

The Nation of Islam; like Scientology thought they had a good deal going. They lost. I would not support any group that sucks a person in. Think about Madonna who took over her own religion because she has no will to suck it up and do the right thing.

People should boycott people are are supported by these groups.

I suppose this one of those situation where I don’t give a sheet about Michael Jackson, I am a racist. So be it.

Poor children. I hope that the extended “Jackson” family doesn’t get a hold of these children. They may have a chance at being normal if they could get a stable home life......

They must have been conceived after he became white.

No doubt he was a drug addict, and it cost him his life; but a jury found him not guilty of the sex charge, and I don’t know of any evidence they were mistaken. Do you have any evidence that the jury didn’t get to see?

This Dr will be penniless soon...

Detectives have made contact with Dr Conrad Robert Murray, a cardiologist who was with Jackson at his rented mansion when he died, and have made clear they want to interview him. Police denied a report that they also want to talk to a second doctor.

Police will also want to know whether early CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) efforts to save the singer’s life were botched. On a tape of conversations between the Jackson home and the ambulance service, one of Jackson’s staff tells the dispatcher that Jackson is on the bed and that a “doctor is here”, meaning Murray.

Medical experts say it is usual for the patient to be on a hard surface because it is difficult to compress the chest on a soft surface. The operator told the caller to “get him on the floor”. A car towed by police from Jackson’s home is registered in the name of Murray’s sister in Texas.

That line in the story has got the Beach Boys’ “Help, Me Rhonda” stuck in my mind and it won’t go away.
