Newly unearthed letters have revealed that Michael Jackson was afraid for his life and feared he would be murdered just prior to his death.

German businessman Michael Jacobshagen, 34, a long-time friend of the King of Pop, says that he has in his possession 13 letters from Jackson in which Michael wrote things such as “They are trying to murder me” and “I am scared about my life.”

Jacobshagen recently revealed this never-before-known news in an interview with broadcaster Daphne Barak for the Australian TV show Sunday Night.

Reports The Daily Mail

Jacobshagen tells Barak how a tearful Jackson called him from a Las Vegas hideaway. The star was preparing for a tour at London’s O2 but begged his friend to fly from Germany to the US to be with him.

‘He was in emotional meltdown saying, ‘They are going to murder me,” Jacobshagen recalled. After he flew out and spent three days with the troubled star, Jackson handed Jacobshagen the notes. Jacobshagen said that the notes kept telling him ‘they’ were trying to murder Jackson.

The singer never clarified who ‘they’ were but some notes refer to concert promoters AEG, which was organising concerts in London that he was shortly due to perform.

One said: ‘AEG. Make so much pressure to me… I’m scared about my life.’

The Thriller singer was found dead just weeks later.

As for why, eight years after the singer’s death, Jacobshagen is just coming forward with news of these letters now?

He says he has gone public with the notes now to support Jackson’s daughter Paris, 19, who recently claimed her father was murdered. The interview will be broadcast next month in Australia, the US and other markets to coincide with the anniversary’s of the star’s death.

Jackson’s official cause of death was an overdose of the sedative propofol, however Jacobshagen says that Jackson had been using propofol for more than a decade to treat insomnia.

Writing on Facebook, Jacobshagen also had this to say…

Now comes out the letters what my friend Michael Jackson give it to me 2009 in April, this shows and proves for the first time he was murdered.

And I let all of you know in my 60 min Australia 🇦🇺Interview. LA Toya say it and Paris Jackson say it but I,m the only one I show with heartbreaking letters handwritten from Michael Jackson himself in April 2009 that he was murderred. You will see the names from people when you see the letters.

I Support with this the Kids from Michael Jackson.

That’s why I show it so late because now also Paris Jackson go forward. That’s not for my PR that’s the evidence of my friend Michael Jackson.

Nobody see in April what I see when I was 3 days alone with him, it was everything secret and I speak the first time about it. The letters speaks for themselves. Justice for the crime on Michael Jackson. I also speak about this with Katherine Jackson and show the family the letters they really hope to open a new court Trial. In this letters he also wrote about some persons and what he really think about them. Stay tuned.

I speak here only from notes from 2009.

Much more coming from the 90 tes and the 00 piece by piece.

Thank You for all the support and fighting for Michael Jackson.

Jackson’s personal doctor, Conrad Murray, ended up serving two years of a four-year prison sentence on charges of involuntary manslaughter in relation to the singer’s death on June 25th, 2009.
