18. NEW THIS WOULD HAPEN JUST THOUGHT SHE WOULD WAIT TILL AFTER HE WAS BURRIED.. WHAT A CIRCUS! ON A BRIGHTER SIDE: (CNN) -- Michael Jackson's memorial service will take place Tuesday morning in the Staples Center, the 20,000-seat coliseum in downtown Los Angeles where Jackson rehearsed his show the night before he died, according to a person who has been briefed by a representative of the family.

No other details about the service, set to begin at 10 a.m. Tuesday, have been revealed.

The news comes amid the frenzy of information -- some conflicting -- that has followed the death of Jackson.

Thursday, CNN learned the family trust created by Jackson to receive all of his assets includes his mother, his children and a list of charities, according to a person with direct knowledge to the contents of the trust.

Katherine Jackson's 40 percent share would go to Michael Jackson's three children after her death, the source said.

The children -- ages 7, 11 and 12 -- will also share 40 percent of the estate's assets and the remaining 20 percent will benefits charities designated by the executors of the will, the source said.

Wednesday, a federal law enforcement official said Wednesday night that the Drug Enforcement Administration had joined Jackson's death investigation, once again fanning speculation that drugs may have been involved in the pop icon's passing.

Earlier in the day, the Jackson family said they would not hold a public or private viewing of his body at Neverland Ranch, as had been reported.

And though Jackson's will, made public Wednesday, placed his entire estate in a family trust, the document that described the trust was not filed in Los Angeles Superior Court.

"He was such an enigma in life, why would we expect him to be anything different in death?" said Antoni Devon, a Jackson fan who huddled with other music lovers at a makeshift memorial for the singer outside Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood.

21. Right...now she wants them. Now that they come attached with tons of money. She hasn't been around, the kids don't know her, go f*8k yourself Debbie. You're disgusting. Everyone trying to profit off Michael's death or do what he wouldn't have wanted are pathetic.

23. Yes Yes Yes, Go Girl Go get your Kids! And take blanket with you to.

24. No, please... they said on a previous story that the kids don't even 'know' their mother, as in they've never really had that mother child relationship. It just wouldn't be fair on them... they should at least ask the children first to see what they might want.

25. She is the biological mother and you can't blame her for not having any contact considering form the last three years Jackson kept on the run from the US and his creditors. He can't be buried at Neverland because it belongs to creditors. The mother is 79 and in a wheel chair, that monster father, by his own admission beat all of his children in their youth and should be no where near these kids.

Posted at 2:18PM on Jul 2nd 2009 by This has become stupid....

26. She gave her kids up for money.. No way in any shape or form should she have custody.. She just want the kids now because all of Michael's money will go to the children..

29. She'd lose more in public opinion if she DIDN'T fight for them.

I wonder why Lisa Marie wasn't mentioned in the will. After all, she's also MJ's ex-wife.

30. YES!!!!! I hope she fights for those kids and then hires the nanny that worked for Michael. At least that would be a good transition for them, someone they know and knows them. Joe Jackson should not be allowed those kids and Grandma Jackson is 79 years old---too old!!! I was hoping she would come out and fight for them. It is unfortunate they would have to be split up, because no one seems to know who the biological parents of the little one "Blanket" is?? Those two older ones look like her, they are HERS. Michael manipulated her into a sham of a marriage and then dumped her when she could not have anymore kids and kept her away from her own kids. She should have them and give them a normal life, one that does not involve their father being strung out on drugs 24/7. Go Debbie!!!!
