La Toya on escaping Jack Gordon

[@vilmaparilla8786]

It's now 2017 and my heart still aches for La Toya whenever I view this. I am happy you are now free from the abuses you had encountered La Toya!

[@lilglockhorizontal]

not really. she was beaten to near death. Jack Gordon beat her almost every day and made her say things. He threatened her by saying that he would kill Michael, or her

[@drfifteenmd7561]

Actually, he usually targeted Michael and Janet, as they were the most famous.

[@atomiclistenertherefor2523]

He said he was gonna hire someone to murder Michael & Janet being they the most successful Jackson's.

[@MrXavierRose]

Why are people saying she's lying about the abuse? There are photos of her covered in bruises and then in 96 Janet talked about helping Toya "cope"...an abusive relationship is nothing to be proud of or even lie about.

[@ebonyivory3988]

+Xavier Rose you couldn't have said it any better.

[@MrXavierRose]

Thank you

[@bigvinamac]

I agree. Who would lie about being abused for years? I'm glad that Latoya is alive to tell her story.

[@sarahroach9144]

Jack told Latoya to say lies about the family

[@sunnythymes5444]

Xavier Rose How could she be lying about the abuse when the mother f***** was a mafia f******* scum of the planet! People are retarded! They would know true that that bit them on their stupid f***** up face

[@BabyAngel1220]

I hate what she said about her family and all the bad things she did. But I don't hate her. The woman was scared of her husband. She was abused, told to lie about the ones she loved most, given death threats (also her favorite siblings), and basically controlled her every move. He instilled fear in her. She was scared. LaToya is a true fighter.

[@ST-nz4bf]

@Cinnamon Pilcher Because Latoya has survived to tell us about her harrowing ordeal !!!

[@tamara_diamonds422]

Why do people always feel they know more about someone when they never even met the person.

[@drfifteenmd7561]

I have no idea. They go by gut instinct when often times that isn't right, especially since gut instinct is based off of personal experiences and the person getting one small semblance of how a public figure is through interviews I'd say is not enough to make good judgements, which is why you have to look at facts. Facts say that she was abused severely, crediting the Jackson family in their claims of being abused as well. It was a well known fact but then that something was up with LaToya.

If she did not have that brother or anyone to show up, can you imagine what would have happened? When my husband and in laws abused me- I was terrified and it was scary as hell- but I did not have anyone at all to turn to... I’m overjoyed to hear the ending where she says she was free... I know this fear and as stupid as the victims sound to those who don’t know what abuse is, it is so true that everything can revolve around how an abusive partner and his folks can control you if you are alone and away from the help you could count on.

[@blindthief]

She's been awfully quiet since the release of Leaving Neverland. Now I know the plan is to ignore the press and not give them a chance to twist her words. But when LaToya pointed fingers at Michael in 1993 it did major damage and I feel like she has to make up for it. If she truly loves him and believes he was innocent she'd make it loud and clear that he would never doing anything to hurt anyone. She doesn't necessarily have to agree that having sleepovers with kids is a good idea but must acknowledge that a man can do what he wants with his house as long as he doesn't hurt people. Speak up, Latoya. You owe Michael.

Anyone should be able to tell this is the truth and not what she said before while she was with that monster I mean look how emotional she is just talking about it and she's never been in a relationship since because of the fear and distrust she still carries from that abusive relationship. I feel terribly bad for her

[@KelliGreenIvy]

@8mycrab I see what you're saying but I have to disagree and say that she took back her comments because she no longer felt the need to lie. Not just because her family was upset but because since she was no longer with Jack she didn't have to say what he wanted her to say anymore. She spoke of such "proof" because thats what she was told to say. I mean do you here the woman she sat in a closet all day to avoid his anger, she said and did what she was told.

[@8mycrab]

@MsKelliGIzaStar Instead of spewing all those viciouis lies on World Wide Television, she could have TURNED IN HER HUSBAND on World Wide Television. If anything happened to her, Janet or Michael after that, the police sure would have known who to go looking for.

[@8mycrab]

Would you be able to go on World Wide Television after your brother has been accused of sexual abuse and say, "I cannot and will not be a silent collaborator against crimes to these small innocent children. I have seen checks to the parents of these children and they are for a great amount and I'm not speaking pennies blah blah blah..." I understand that LaToya was abused. I've been in an abusive situation where I had a gun held against my head. I WOULD HAVE NEVER DONE THAT TO MY BROTHER.

[@KelliGreenIvy]

@8mycrab The point I'm trying to make is that when people are scared they don't always make the best decisions or even know how to go about making a right decision. She was scared she said things she didn't mean; but the family forgave her. Sure there were other things she could have done but she didn't know how. Sometimes you just don't know what to do.

[@KelliGreenIvy]

@8mycrab The way she put it, Jack threatened to kill Michael and Janet since he knew she was closest to them. So if she's telling the truth and she believed him when he threatened her siblings life what was she supposed to do? Say what she said about Michael and hope it blows over or wait to see if Jack would reall carry out his threats? She was afraid.
