Katherine Jackson, the mother of Michael Jackson was located by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) on Sunday afternoon after he nephew reported her missing over the weekend.
On Monday’s Today show it was revealed that Katherine Jackson was on a planned vacation in Arizona and that the 82-year-old had not fleed over reports that the Jackson brothers were trying to prove Michael Jackson’s will was a forgery and that the executors of the Jackson estate were trying to swindle Katherine Jackson and Michael Jackson’s children out of their money.
Katherine is the guardian of Michael Jackson’s three children but this weekend she was with her own daughter Rebbie.
The missing persons report was filed on Saturday by Katherine’s nephew Trend and it was quickly lambasted by Jermaine Jackson who proclaimed:
“It dismays me that such an alarmist ‘missing person’ report has caused unnecessary anxiety among Michael’s children who will understandably react to what they misunderstand, hear or are told.”
Oddly enough Paris Jackson also appeared to be worried about her grandmother, in a Twitter message posted earlier this week Paris had tweeted:
yes, my grandmother is missing. i haven’t spoken with her in a week i want her home now.

In a final even stranger message Paris Jackson wrote:
the same doctor that testified on behalf of dr murray saying my father was a drug addict (a lie) is caring for my grandmother… just saying

Drama has followed the Jackson’s around ever since Michael Jackson passed away, this time however it appears that the drama was self-made and not a product of media speculation.
