Wednesday evening, Katherine Jackson broke her silence, addressing rumors that she had been kidnapped and her displeasure that she had lost custody of Michael’s children. In an ABC interview, filmed with her children Randy, Rebbie and Janet, she explained:

“There are rumors going around about me that I have been kidnapped…. I am here today to let everybody know that I am good and fine…My children would never do anything to me like that….One reason I didn’t call is I just gave up my phone and I didn’t want to have any phone calls while I was here…..I am devastated that while I’ve been away my grandchildren have been taken away from me, and I’m coming home.”
