A lawyer for Michael Jackson’s mother confirmed social workers were investigating the presence of a stun gun in the Jackson family home, reports Thisislondon.co.uk.
They do, however, deny rumours that the late singer’s children were exposed to the dangerous object.
Adam Streisand explains that the stun gun was ordered online two weeks ago by Jermaine Jackson’s 13-year old son, Jaafar. He lives with his mother Alejandra at the family compound in the Encino neighbourhood of Los Angeles.
The lawyer says it delivered to the house and adds, "Jaafar opened the package in his bathroom and tested it on a piece of paper."
Streisand represents the King of Pop’s mother, Katherine Jackson. She has custody of her son’s three children, Prince Michael, Paris and Prince Michael II (Blanket).
Streisand goes on to say, "Mrs. Jackson and security heard the sound coming from the second floor of the house. Immediately, security went upstairs and confiscated the stun gun. Mrs. Jackson took control over it and then had it removed from the house. There was no other incident."
The singer’s oldest son, Prince, only saw the stun gun after it was confiscated. So the rumours saying that Jaafar tried to stun his cousin Blanket, 7, are false.
