THE FACTS
A rep for Michael Jackson’s physician has now confirmed that he will be turning himself into authorities to face charges.

THE SPIN
Dr. Conrad Murray’s rep made the following state via their site:

“We are presently negotiating with the District Attorneys’ office the surrender of Dr. Murray,” Ed Chernoff said in a statement posted Thursday on his Web site. “The specifics have not yet been agreed to and when the agreement is complete we will report further on this Web site.”

Charges have yet to be filed as the investigation is still pending. Look, I don’t care when this guy turns himself in as long as he does. No doctor with any respect for the creed he took as a medical professional would have doped Michael up the way he did.

He deserves to be in a cell with “Man in the Mirror” on constant repeat. Or locked in a room with Joe Jackson and Tito. Whatever makes him suffer the most.

THE FACTS
A paternity test allegedly confirms that Mathew Knowles is the father of a new girl.

THE SPIN
Are congratulations in order to Mathew Knowles for successfully becoming his generation’s answer to Papa Joe Jackson?

Word around the Web is that Daddy Mat has been confirmed as the dad of a new baby girl bred by Alexsandra Wright.

If you recall Wright filed a paternity suit against Beyonce and Solange’s pops claiming the two had an affair and that he knocked her up.

Here’s what Media Take Out is saying about the Knowles family’s version of JohVonnie Jackson:

A snitch just told MediaTakeOut.com that Alexsandra Wright, the woman who filed a paternity suit against Mathew Knowles months ago, recently gave birth to a daughter.

And word is DNA tests just came back - confirming that the child is, in fact, a Knowles. As we reported earlier, Beyonce’s mom Tina OFFICIALLY filed to divorce Mathew in November.

Mathew then hit back with a statement via rep saying: “We are not aware of the birth of a child. Mr. Knowles has never had a DNA test.”

I won’t trust this until a more reputable media establishment confirms it (yes, I’m talking about TMZ), but I bet if there is a little baby by Mathew, Tina won’t be sending the parents free House of Dereon.

THE FACTS
Michael Jackson’s father is mulling the idea of filing a wrongful death suit.

THE SPIN
Where is Angela Bassett to yell, “LET IT GO JOE!” when you need her?

Since it’s pretty clear that Michael Jackson’s estate is not about to show Joe where those dollars at (shout out to Gangsta Boo – that song never gets old) he’s looking for a new way to get some cash.

Does it involve a job independent of anything related to his son?

Hell no. You can’t teach an old dog new tricks, especially if he’s used to being a flea.

So what’s Joe about to do?

TMZ reports that he’s trying to force UCLA to hand over all of his son’s medical records in order to file a wrongful death suit.

According to legal documents filed on Friday, Joe claims:

“The UCLA records will permit [Joe] to determine with medical experts and then present to this court, how much support [Joe] needs to pay for the prosecution of his wrongful death action against those responsible for his son’s death.”

Joe believes the medical records will show what really happened to Michael, and that will help Joe determine how much he’d be able to collect from those responsible for Michael’s death.

However, Howard Weitzman, a lawyer for Michael Jackson’s estate explained to TMZ:

“The estate continues to believe Joe Jackson’s claims are not well taken and he should not have access to Michael’s medical records.”

Translation: Go to bed, Joe!
