>> this is a fox news alert. the london telegraph is reporting a secret deal has been struck to meet kathleen jackson and debbie rowe that excludes joe jackson from having part in bringing up the children. joe reportedly or has been reportedly prepare to go take his grandchildren on a world tour with the children as performers known as the jackson 3. we have not yet been able to
10:15 pm
confirm it. it has just broken. i don't know what the source is. does it sound appropriate or right to you? >> no, i think i would prefer waiting to hear it from here in the united states. there is so much that has been disseminated out of london. i don't know whether we can quite believe that. i think we should wait and see what happens here. i wouldn't get too excited about that here. >> do you see a possibility a deal has been struck between debbie rowe or catherine jackson. >> i don't know if a deal needs to be struck. >> meaning? >> michael was clear in his will what he wanted to do. i think if the judge looks at his will, literally, it shouldn't be a problem. >> here's the regul relevant po of the last will and testament of michael jackson in which he
10:16 pm
expressly leaves custody of his three minor children to his mother 79-year-old katherine, kimberly guilfoyle, 2005 the enter view clip we just saw. >> when i saw that i went, wow, this is something that could be relevant highly probative in court. la the last will and testament of michael jackson in 2002 the interview you did with him you got him on the record on tape out of michael's mouth not anybody trying to say he thought or couldn't have done this, he talked about the relationship with his parents and what his father meant to him. the court is deciding whether or not joe jackson would be a threat or someone that shouldn't be around the children which is a suggestion debbie rowe has made allegations before she didn't want him around her kids. >> the statement in the will is not conclusion nature re. it's an indication what michael jackson wanted to do with his children. it's not like a piece of property.
10:17 pm
he is saying mr. joe schmoe. this is an indication. it's not conclusion nature re. what will be the determining factor is what's in the best interest of the children. >> also who the parents are. >> ask who the children want to be with. >> it has probative value also. an 11-and 12-year-old can express their opinion to a judge. we are joined by pat shift national inquirer entertainment reporter who is on the coast. as i understand it you have had a scoop of some sort. what's your headline and lead in your paper tomorrow? >> we have talked about -- thank you for having me. we are saying in the last six months authorities have investigated michael obviously to great detail and we think he has taken approximately 10,000 pills over 10,000 pills in the last 6 months. it's heartbreaking. >> you know what kind of pills
10:18 pm
they were? >> there was a vier right of pills a laundry les if you will that is on the cover including oxycontin, everything that has been reported plus much more than we have ever known before. talk to a schiff that was there briefly before michael died he saw doctor murray taking oxygen tanks out of the house. >> what is the story i hear what you are going to reveal who the parents of the various children are? what do you know, what will the national inquirer being reporting? >> the thing is we really looked into it geraldo and we have gotten sources close to dr. klein's office and we will be reporting who we feel from investigation that we have held for the last couple weeks who the real parents, biological parents of the children are. >> is arnold klein in any way a sperm donor or have you rejected
10:19 pm
them? >> we don't feel that he is. we are still investigating but we feel we have narrowed it down. >> we narrowed it down. >> why would you take a short sweaty hairy dw guy to be the sm donor. >> he is also denied it himself. >> he sort of denies it. he also admits donating sperm at least once in his life which i found kind of bizarre. i have done a lot of things but never volunteered to do that. >> i just think this whole line of conversation is been disrespectful. michael jackson and debbie ro r are those children's parents, period. the conversations of arnold klein and finding out who the parents are. those children have already been traumatized by the death of
10:20 pm

>> continuing live with our jackson panel the former publicist and confidante romaine banes stands beside me. spiritual advisor of michael jackson stands with me. judge larry si seidlin. i have to report or i can report to you that aside from the london daily mail stlee other british papers the sun the age and daily mail are all reporting more newspapers presenteding the
10:24 pm
same story that the children of michael jackson and/or combination of the family will be substituting for their dead father in that series of london concerts. ramone? >> no. >> hal pair rin the author who claims the source within the jackson compound also said halperin as a result of this announcement breaking even as we speak a great divide has been created in the compound with some people now within the jackson family because they are angry for them putting forth this material. is that all bs? >> i think so. first of all i think mr. jackson is a doting grandfather. all of his grandchildren love him. i want to say that on the record. number two, i don't think he was very serious about that. i think that he was pretty much
10:25 pm
bragging about the talent of his grandchildren. it was pretty much ingest by saying i have the jackson three. i know other things michael talked about all of the time in front of me my colleagues and his family, he wanted his children could ha to have a nor. what does normal mean? his eyes? i think it means they are not in the glare of cameras they are not having to do those things they are not comfortable with really. >> not becoming fer formers? >> i am not going to say that. he wanted them to learn, he wanted them to experience. he did not ever say to us that he was interested in getting his young children on the stage at an early age. i think he wants them to be independent and if they want to do it when the time is right i don't think he would have a problem with that. i think that the family right now is more interested in
10:26 pm
nurturing those children loving them making sure they are educated and happy. i don't think he meant literally he was going to have the children go out here the jackson 3. i think people are taking it too far. >> we will see where this story develops monday. dr. carr, the interview with jackson in 2005 long after he talked about his alleged abuse at the hands of his dad what was michael's relationship with his dad? >> michael's relationship with his father was one that i think he enjoyed. he wasn't always close that's a fact. i would like to say raw mo ramo the nail right on the head. i have seen joe jackson around the children, around his grandchildren and he is just what she said a doteding
10:27 pm
grandfather. i have been asked even on occasion to study the bible with others of his grandchildren the same thing michael asked me to do with his children. getting back to joe jackson you won't find a bigger teddy bear in the world when he is around his grandchildren. >> before the commercial break i must ask the judge to finish up the point on the ir rebuttable presumption after two years the children are the children of debbie rowe and michael jackson. >> you went to a good law school also. we all know there's a public policy argument if you marry you have children and present them as their children there's a presumption they are your children. otherwise we are going to dissolve the integrity of the community. joe jackson would be good now to remain as quiet as a sphinx on the nile. he should be walking off into the sunset. he is injuring the mother's position, his wife's position. he should remain mute, like a b movie deep his mouth shut and

10:32 pm
court of the united states. veteran federal judge sonia sotomayor is sure to be grilled. jeff session who remind us of the judges wise latino row mark. while she is expected to get roughed up a bit, judge sotomayor also has a whole lot going for her her wonderful life story, her american bar association strongest possible endorsement along with endorsements from the international association of police chiefs and just about every other major law enforcement organization out there. our friend kansas republican senator sam brown beck has already announced he will not vote to confirm her. he joins us tonight along with the former attorney general of the united states alberto gonzalez and best selling author
10:33 pm
ann coulter. welcome all. senator brown back is it about abortion your decision not to vote? >> no it's not. i agree he has a compelling personal life story. my view is what she really wants to do is have the court not set up to do. she wants the court to be a super leg slai legislative body in the policy making field like she said in one speech. in the second district circuit court she went on to that. i met with her and i talk with her. she has an activist liberal court. i think that's harmful to the court. i don't think that's what the court is designed to do and i don't think it's good for the country. that's why i announced my position with judge sotomayor.
10:34 pm
>> are you speaking of her actual decision or speaking about that line in the speech back in 2001? >> i am speaking about her speeches her judicial writing she said the most recent case overturned her statements about really taking a view that justice isn't blind. you need to peak under the blindfold and see what you are looking at here on how you want the case to go. her overall view that the court is involved in policy making. that is at the base of what the worst thing is overall. when you get the court involved in policy making it really removes the public in many cases. >> you mean like bush v gore? bush v gore was that getting the court involved in politics. i don't want to be contentious. let me go to alberto gonzalez who expressed his general support for the confirmation of
10:35 pm
judge sotomayor. how much of that is based on your own, our own et nis at this, our cheering on, one of our own who has come out of the ashes of poverty as you did to such great success. how much is rooting for the home team and how much of your support of her confirmation is based on her judicial experience? >> i haven't said i would support her. what i have said it is an historic apointment. it's a great day in the hispanic community. she is wonderfully qualified a brilliant example of the american dream. legitimate questions have been raised about her philosophy. i think it is an appropriate line of review in the hearings. whether or not she can be impartial. it's based upon her public statements. when you have to look at the cases those are important indicator of the kind of judge
10:36 pm
she is going to be over the long-term. i am withholding judgment. that's what the hearings are all about to give the nominee an opportunity to respond to criticism and questions and so i am going to wait and like most of the american people quite frankly and see how she responds to these kinds of questions. >> it won't be the american people who decide, it will be the senate of the united states, but ann coulter, welcome also. the membership of judge sotomayor in the civil rights organization, the puerto rican civil defense and education fund do you think that will be a rich load for republicans to mind when they seek to criticize her and if so why? >> sure, that's something. that's something. but what you keep describing as that one line, the one speech she gave, she said that half a dozen times over a decade. much of a commentary on that
10:37 pm
speech i feel like i am the only person who looked through it. it is not something taken out of context. it's not the way democratic senators are surviving or liberals on tv. these entire points of that speech was that we have to have more latinos on the court and latinos because the very idea of impartiality is something that comes from a white male dominated world to use her word that impair shallity does not serve society. does not serve the law. this is ethnic politics that add -- rwanrwanda, china and vo cans the successful country they are today. >> now that there's two votes against and one undecided i have to say a couple things. number one i am also a former board member of the defense and education fund. i was proud to serve on what is a fine civil rights organization along with the senior republican senator from new york state
10:38 pm
jacob javits my colleague on the board of the fine organization. her judicial record is examined as it has been minutely in the last weeks or months. nothing can point to anything that indicates she is using her latin ease ma to make her judgment. furthermore there have been 110 justices over the course of the history of this republic and 108 of them have been white guys. there is a time for everything. she has a wonderful record. >> geraldo, her membership wasn't one of mine -- as a member of loraza did you sign a brief arguing should can he be unconstitutional -- (talking over one another) >> the conservatives went one way liberals went the other way. he did vote the same way as he
10:39 pm
would have. i don't know. i think this woman deserves the benefit of the doubt. >> do you think the death penalty is unconstitutional because it's applied unfairly to a hispanic. >> as it is applied and add men stered in this country definitely. i think if you are blind to the racial aspects of the death penalty you haven't studied these cases they are disproportionnal. i am speaking in a way that will be out of sink with the majority of my viewers tonight. senator do you want to make a quick closing statement? i give you each 30 seconds. senator first. >> i love the idea that she is a woman i would love mcgilles trad dau going on the supreme court. she wants the court to be a player in policy making not the
10:40 pm
referee umpire. that's central issue here. >> i think it's good to have strong policies it is whether or not you have the courage not to have those views and apply them when you interpret the law. >> thank you for a spirited discussion. my enter view just compiled yesterday. rolling. >> tees one of the most enduring, endearing facies in hollywood. i have known them for 35 years. i have known him from the days of pumping iron. you know him best from the days of "the incredible hulk" he is the actor, fitness expert ks all around good guy lou forigno. how are you doing? >> goods. good to be on the show again. >> tell me about the whole interesting aspect of you getting involved in helping train michael jackson for his up coming concert tour.
10:41 pm
when does you and michael hook up? >> well i have known mike for 20-years. i trained him 20 years ago. he wanted me to train him again for the tour. >> give me the dates as clearly as specifically as you can. >> i think the training was sometime in april. i hadn't seen michael in a month because of schedule conflict. i was supposed to train him a few more days before he left for england. >> you saw him from early april to may. how many times, lou, and where? >> i went to his house maybe two, three times a week. the guy looked great. he was motivated. he was excited. it wasn't the normal relationship. he hasn't been the same ten years ago but he was geared up for this tour. >> so you believe he was basically fit?
10:42 pm
is that what you are saying? he must have been extremely thin. >> he must have weighed 126 pounds. every time he worked out he had black pants, black shoes and black socks. sometimes he would take the jacket off and he would be doing the different exercises and there was no sign of foul play. >> did you say he worked out with his jacket on? >> yes, black jacket, black shirt, black pants, black sthus, black socks. he would walk on the tread hill and do stretching exercises. that's michael. immediately after i finished training him he would go down 4 or 5 hours a day. sometimes he would take his jacket off. he would dance in front of me. that's michael. he liked to wear his shoes and black pants. >> did you see any needle marks on his arms? >> no. as a matter of fact took his jacket off he had a white t-shirt. said you don't need them off.
10:43 pm
i was on the floor stretching him, moving him. i didn't see anything. >> you mentioned stress. do you believe he was stressed by this up coming challenge as any retired athlete 50-year-old active person would be, was he stressed and was it the concert tour, his crushing debt, what do you think? >> i think he needed more time to train for the tour. i know he had a complete physical in february. the problem with michael $400 million in debt, got the kids, handling the whole tour was too much. inside of michael he was thinking he's 20 years old but when you are 50 you have to take things in stride. i think his heart just gave out. >> you were in the house his dad joe jackson saying he suspects foul play. what do you think? >> i don't believe it. my opinion i think it was an
10:44 pm
accident. michael is real sweet down to earth. he trusted me, felt safe with me and shared a lot of stories together. he was a friend. he has always been loyal to me. he won't have any other trainer to train him. he knew when i trained him he trusted me as a friend he would be the health expert and help give him what he needs. >> he is gone now, though, lou, thank you for being a loyal friend to him and friend to me, too. thank you for being on, buddy. >> thank you. >> you are about to s a dramatic demonstration of the powerful sedative that we think played a role in the death of michael jackson right after this. you're the colon lady! diarrhea, constipation, gas, bloating. that's me! can i tell you what a difference phillips' colon health has made?

>> this is the drug that was reportedly found in michael jackson's home the day he died. it was this drug that may have killed him. a well-known plastic surgeon in beverly hills doctor tell me about this drug and how is it>> used? >> it is a sedative help notic that can do virtually any surgery with this drug. that's remarkable it puts patients to sleep within 30 seconds. >> by now his struggles with insomnia are well-known. they are asking if they gave the powerful sedative to jackson before he died, if so the docks
