The Hoax Theory - Discussing Errors, Inconsistencies, Observations and Other Theories

More CAREFUL??? I'm useally the most careful... to the point, where everything I post is boring! So if I have to be more careful than that, then I might as well better leave. Thanks anyway.

sorry I don't make the rules. this is the internet you know. people can say what they want. if you don't like it my advice is to stay away from some topics. anyway have a good day.

I don't think question was wrong though. you was only asking a question. anyways *shrugs*
 
I'm not a believer in the death hoax idea but man, if you don't like it, don't post in here. I just came in here to see what people were saying and it's pages of people running it down and calling people crazy. Like, if you don't like it, just don't go in here. It's not hard.
 
Well this thread is here for a reason? Mods undermine Gaz decision for a discussion thread and complete and lively discussions can’t peacefully happen because of people who reserve the right to derail it with judgement over and over again?

It says “observations “ and “inconsistencies” and every fan ought to be allowed, encouraged even, to analyze together in peace.

Do moderators already happen to know why Liberian Girl theme was chosen? Is that an offensive question to ask in an “observation” thread?

It’s far enough into the board that a person would have to go out of their way to hunt and click a few times to come in here just to offer their overly critical statements of THE OBVIOUS.

“He’s dead let him go”. GENIUS. How many times do deeper thinkers have to keep hearing that?

Sorry to be rude in kind - it’s just frustrating not to be able to enjoy a peaceful discussion on a discussion board where people try and some stimulated thought from a simple question. Please let people think (out loud) in peace.

WERE there really toys in the courtroom or were they photoshopped?

Speaking of photoshop... why did Brian Oxman remark that that browner-skinned pic of MJ which to many of us looked to be from the 80s, was photoshopped? Why was so much of the memorial and funeral not themed for more current MJ?

Any theories? Thanks

We are not undermining Gaz. Gaz doesn't want to censor this kind of discussion, but that also means not censoring the people who object to this kind of discussion. This thread is abhorrent to a lot of the members here, so if you choose to participate that is something you just have to accept.

Thank you, Anna.....and speaking from the point of view of BOTH a member and a co-moderator, I completely agree.

Free and uncensored discussion is exactly that. We accept all points of view and everyone has the right to express their opinions in any of our threads, as long as they are respectful towards others. The fact that certain discussion topics are allowed on the forum certainly does not mean that only one side of that discussion can be tolerated. That is counter to the idea of open discourse and debate.

Finally, accusing staff of undermining Gaz is a form of dissent and it's also offensive. All staff convene with each other and speak regularly behind the scenes, about how the forum is being run. We check with each other and make sure that what we are saying and doing, both as individuals and as part of a team, is above reproach.
 
You might consider that the first word in this thread title is “Hoax” which is an offensive concept, repugnant to many to be sure. It is old from 2009 when all this speculation first began and seems to elicit the biggest “knee jerk” responses...what MJ wouldn’t do to his: children, family fans etc.

To be clear ...please read my sentence again in context.....my POINT was in stating that you undermine the decision for the thread to be here when you allow or interject derailing comments..,.else why is this thread here if the TOPIC can’t be freely engaged? Continuously negative feedback about the thread’s existence imho undermines its presence. Yes everyone has free speech without exception, including negative, it’s just this thread that gets it the most gratuitously in my opinion.

Eg,

After 4 months of “crickets” since February someone repeats the question in June and then is asked, what’s the “urgency”..

All I am asking is that you guyz try and make the thread more functional for such a sensitive discussion...it’s already tough enough.

That’s my feedback and my opinion.

Another is about “alleged”

al·leged
/əˈlejd/
Learn to pronounce
adjective
(of an incident or a person) said, without proof, to have taken place or to have a specified illegal or undesirable quality.

I would go with the theory that minus a verdict it is all “alleged” until this defendant is found guilty or not,

however..

It seems to me the question of “alleged victim” asks, is there proof there is a victim...clearly the question answers itself by it being a murder trial plus the autopsy pics in evidence so it is evident and obvious fact that there is a victim, so nothing is “without proof” as far as that ....the only next question then is in the victim”s identity.

How can the date be an “allegation” when we all watched it unfold on the exact date? The date is not on trial. - the person is - the date is not “alleged” at all...we were there.

At the time of the rendering of the verdict there was no “alleged” victim or date - those were facts that created the case in the first place.

It is an oddity to be sure. Similarly the 911 call:

“Ok let’s get him on the floor”

“Oh ok then, you have a doctor there who has more authority than I do”

At what point did the 911 operator say, “I just gave a doctor with more authority than me, instructions on how to administer CPR for a patient who is most likely dying seeing as how they’re not breathing”....

..maybe alert his immediate reports and/or higher authorities that someone’s life is in peril under the care of a doctor that does not know CPR

If you or I (or any reasonable prudent person) got on a call with a patient who’s not breathing and a doctor that does not know CPR we would not sit there calmly saying to call back if you need anything else.

We would at the very least stay on the call and probably proceed to help the doctor make sure CPR is being administered correctly enough to help the victim. Doctor could have been drunk for all the 911 operator knows.

Questions like these and many others deserve concentration and respectful dialogue and careful analysis...this of all places should be the safest most engaging place to do it imo.

JMHO Thanks

Murray knew how to do CPR. He also knew it was a waste of time because Michael was already dead and had been for a while, before finally being discovered by Murray. The 911 call and the "pretending" to administer CPR, etc. was all smoke and mirrors for the benefit of others, because Murray did not want to pronounce MJ dead at the house. If he did, then the negligence was all on him and he wanted to avoid that, at all costs and try to save his own hide. That's why the entire facade of Michael being rushed to hospital and worked on by hospital staff happened......Murray told the paramedics when they arrived that he had found a weak pulse, but that is likely to have been a lie, like much of what came out of his mouth, that day and many other days afterwards. MJ was pronounced dead at 2:26 in the afternoon at Cedar Sinai, but Murray knew damn well that it happened MUCH earlier than that and the paramedics probably knew it, too....they just had to bow to the "superiority" of a doctor and act upon what he told them.

Gaz allows opposing opinions and objections in this thread, so your ignorant comment about us "undermining" him is totally void, in any context.

The existence of this thread is tolerated by staff. But that doesn't mean it gets to be exempt from criticism or objection. No one is stopping you from discussing things in here, but to expect to be able to discuss something like this without opposition, on a fan forum is, frankly, ridiculous. Unless there are actual attacks or insults being thrown around, people are free to say what they wish on either side.

Exactly. The paramedics said Michael was clearly dead on arrival. They only took him to hospital and continued working on him at Murray's insistence.

Just saying "victim" already assumes crime. Not everyone who dies is a "victim". The prosecution were saying a crime had occured on that date and had the evidence to prove it, but that didn't automatically legally make it so. That's the point of the trial, for the jury to decide if Michael was the victim of a crime that had been committed by Murray on that date. That's why everything is "alleged". There is nothing odd about this, it's just the way it works.
 
some say mj's soul was tired and damaged, and that the trial really ruined him. This is true, but for those who'd like to have faith that he could still be alive, here is a good question. Could mj doubles and impersonators, have helped to carry some of the load...?

Thank you so much for the support. I thought people were being really mean to me. Also it seems now to be alright to discuss EVERYTHING regarding MJ's apperance, plastic surgery etc. So why is it not ok, that I post in this thread, who has been here since 2009?

Absolutely. We didn’t name the thread, “Hoax Theories...” for goodness sake. Of course people are sensitive to that word, I know I am.. but it doesn’t stop me from being able to discuss everything else about this crazy mystery.

They fix it where people can’t discuss any “inconsistencies” or anything without some knee-jerk responder to the word “hoax” icing up with some version of “he died” like everyone is here just for cramps and giggles.
and treat us like it’s our fault that all the negativity is distracting.

On another note , when is someone going to address my comment about the date is not “alleged” and that photo shopped picture on the covers of newspapers all around the world... the 911 operator acting like it makes sense for a non-breathing patient to be in the care of a “higher authority “ who isn’t properly performing CPR. “Call us back if you need anything else”. nobody has any theories I guess.

I realize it’s a mystery to everyone really - it is quite an oddity.

I think the biggest oddity to me is Murray stating on Dr Oz that when he came back in the room it wasn’t the same person laying there (that’s odd) the oddest thing of all being that Dr Oz didn’t ask him what the sam hill he meant by that.

Any theories?

I wonder what is each person’s biggest “oddity”?

No doubt in my mind that every honest fan has at least one...even if they completely concluded that MJ unfortunately is completely 100% dead.

Firstly thank you for adding a modicum of logic to the discussion. That does make sense up until you toss in the date. That one sentence in the verdict rendering would still be inconsistent considering that the date is the one certainty in the entire debacle.

As for the “alleged victim” I can see that the prosecution was alleging that MJ was a victim of Murray. They still should have just said, decedent “.

Lastly, what did Joe mean by, “there’s more”. His comment was described as, “cryptic”

In that case why not delete that awful term, “Hoax Theory” from the title.

Since we’re being sensitive to fans’ feelings I will add that Michael Jackson’s death is too serious to too many fans not to be able to discuss it in peace to whatever degree we need to.

Especially since obviously “Hoax” is not an option. JMHO

Firstly, thank you for adding a modicum of logic to this discussion. Since the beginning in 2009 every answer begs another question which is an oddity in itself.

Re bolded:

My only question for this answer is, if that’s the case (Murray was doing it only for “show”):

Before Alverez arrived on the scene Murray had plenty of time to do the one thing anyone would do when putting on such a serious show (with his very life on the line and his only audience at the time being the body guard) and the habitual, instinctive thing any heart doctor “staging” CPR would do which is to put the patient on the floor - that is the main thing that would constitute a “staged” CPR just for “show”.

Secondly, it would seem to me that Murrsy would have had every reason to suspect that a bodyguard (of all people to put on a life saving “show” for, especially with this patient being the body guard’s boss) , that Murray would have every reason to suspect that the body guard probably has had some CPR training himself - being that the body guard is afterall, in the life saving business. Not to mention many body guard types have been in some form of official training eg., law enforcement, military etc where CPR exposure is likely

The body guard shouldn’t have had to have anyone to tell him to tell the doctor to put the patient on the floor.

His first reaction when he saw this should have been the same as anyone’s especially with him watching first-hand Murray handling his boss that way.

Here’s an analogy albeit loose but so I make my point clear-

If a fireman is going to stage putting out a fire is he going to prepare ahead of time then “forget” to include the hose or the water with his very life on the line? I’m sure that people forget the darndest things when they panic. It’s just that some things are instinctual. Even if he knew Michael was dead, that still doesn’t make sense given his career instinct. It should have been quite automatic.

Absurdity of the century: Heart doctor forgets to put heart -challenged patient on floor. Patient’s personal body guard doesn’t happen to notice. Farcical.

It’s not like Murray didn’t call Alverez after he prepped the scene if he had been with his dead patient for that long before calling him in there...or before calling Amir or whomever he called to get Alverez there.

Fits under the thread title - “errors”
And if it wasn’t so tragic, at first blush it looks like a “comedy of errors”

comedy of errors
phrase of comedy
a situation made amusing by bungling and incompetence.
except this is the farthest thing from funny.

Random Footnote:

A good executive protection training school or company has the following curriculum outline as part of their training:
Protective Advances – Protective Intelligence – Radio Communications – Motorcades and Routes – Firearms and Special Tactics – Public Affairs and Media Control – Emergency First Aid/CPR/AED

I wonder if you are joking. Or a new fan perhaps?

OR...you just Wanna Be Starting Something? lol

This question has been hashed over and over since 2009.

We already know that through the decades he used doubles a lot so, obviously so... but sadly that is not an option although it gets a lot of speculation from fans who hope against hope.

I’ve heard only the most absurdly ridiculous theories about it personally.

If you’re heard anything that makes some kind of good sense please share. Every theory I have personally ever heard about “doubles” is utterly senseless ...so far.

Meanwhile, he’s dead, let him go.

If you seek a serious discussion about the inconsistencies in MJ’s homicide case, I suggest to watch the actual trial videos instead of Dr Oz.

.Thanks for these links are very helpful to this discuss.

Obviously it doesn’t answer the simple question as to what Murray meant by what he said.

The MAIN question was why did the talk show not address such a wildly bizarre statement...? Any thoughts/theories?

Because it’s trash TV. There’s nothing more to it. They invite people with ridiculous stories to sell their advertising slots. That’s the whole idea. They don’t care who claims what and why, as long as it makes them money.

I don't know. everyone has their own opinions. while i don't agree everything dr. oz says. i do agree with somethings he says not about this case though....

What? Did he really say that??? And dr. Oz just let him say it, without asking what he meant?

Yes. Even on the trashiest of talk shows the most outrageous statements are the statements they address, for sensationalism purposes and ratings if nothing else.

Does anyone know (heard) anything about the choice for the 80’s and early 90s motif of the memorial and funeral?

Since then the family has released numerous wonderful (non-performance-related) pics of MJ taken of him in very recent times.
 
I may be a bit slow today, but can someone explain to me in a way that’s easy to understand for someone who has only been a fan for about a year now, what this discussion is all about? What are you guys trying to prove, if anything?

You’re not too slow. It’s not to prove anything except the most plausible possibilities of what is not explained through the facts as they have been presented.

A lot of people are not as interested as others to discuss the odd circumstances surrounding the death of our fave, (a lot are understandably offended by the awful term “hoax” which in 2009 appeared to have been the situation in the eyes of a subset of fans when this thread was created) ) so this thread is here for those who ARE interested in:Discussing Errors, Inconsistencies, Observations

SENSIBLY.

I don’t come here normally because the discussion became stagnant likely because nobody appreciates the word, “hoax”.

I’m guessing the thread will close at some point for that reason.

sorry - can’t unbolt from copying part of the thread title

I still don’t get it. Why do you want to discuss the circumstances of his death specifically in a thread about the death hoax? If you go back to page one, that’s what this thread is. Why not discuss in a different thread? I see people on Twitter talking about that wild hoax theory, and from what I gather it involves some fat guy in a burger restaurant pretending to be MJ in a fat suit or something. That’s ridiculous, and I don’t see how a serious discussion about the death circumstances is supposed to flourish in this environment.
 
I’d like to add – and excuse my making another post for this – that I’m actually quite interested in discussing the facts around the homicide. I’m slowly working my way through all those CM trial videos, and after that I’ll look into the AEG trial as well. So, if there are unanswered questions or inconsistencies, I’m absolutely open to talking about those. But certainly not in any way that involves any “hoax theory”.

And I think that, when we keep telling people in regards to the CSA allegations to not believe the tabloids and look into the court transcripts and FBI files instead, we should do the same in this case. Meaning, analyze the facts as presented in the trial and other credible sources. Dr Oz is not a credible source for anything.

. All of that fat guy talk etc is the whole reason such a serious discussion can’t flourish in this environment due to the word “hoax” which opens the way for every unimaginable ridiculousness being included with errors inconsistencies and observations where all the nuances can be discussed. I have not seen a thread that disses nuances except this one. If you know of another please post a link.
