    According to other media reports, some members of the family were not allowed to see Joe Jackson in his final days. Jermaine Jackson said to the Daily Mail, “No one knew what was going on — we shouldn’t have to beg, plead, and argue to see our own father, especially at a time like this. We have been hurting. We were not being told where he was and couldn’t get the full picture”.
