MJ asks his parents to raise his kids if he goes to jail
Michael Jackson has reportedly asked his aging parents to take custody of his children, 8 year-old Prince Michael, seven year-old Paris and two year-old Prince Michael II, in the event of his conviction and imprisonment.
The house is Jackson's childhood home where he allegedly suffered physical and verbal abuse under his father, Joe Jackson.As witness after witness tied to decade-old accusations surfaces, pundits say that the likelihood of Jackson's conviction continues to grow.
Despite the star's reported unhappy relationship with his father, Joe has been at his son's side in court throughout the trial.However, Jackson's ex-wife and mother of his two eldest children, Debbie Rowe, is so unhappy with the decision she is fighting for custody.
Rowe signed away her parental rights in 2001, telling a judge: "I had the children for him to be a father, not for me to be a mother."
But she launched a legal battle to retract the ruling after hearing Jackson was charged with child abuse and his parents were to be her children's guardians.
Or is he planning to move in with Roman Polanski in Europe?

He has to learn to protect his property and person from outsiders. In the event that he does go to jail, where will he go and can I get on the visitors list ahead of time?
