From the “You Can’t Make This Shit Up But No One Should Be Surprised” department: “The Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services officials are looking into an incident in which one of Michael Jackson’s nephews, 13-year-old Jaafar Jackson, chased the late Thriller singer’s 8-year-old son Blanket round the Jackson family compound with a Taser gun.” This from radaronline.com, echoing TMZ.com (who reckons the gun came from, wait for it, an LA supermarket’s website). So it must be true. Needless to say, the Jacksons deny the story. Well, part of the story. “The family said that Jaafar ordered one of the stun guns online and tested the gun only on a piece of paper, according to Katherine Jackson’s attorney Adam Streisand, who said the alleged Blanket incident didn’t happen.”
