Michael Jackson
victim of threat,
detective says
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES
Michael Jackson's private in*
vestigator said the father of a
13-year-old boy demanded
$20 million and threatened to
accuse the entertainer of
child molestation if he didn't
get it, a newspaper reported.
In an interview in Sunday's
Los Angeles Times, Anthony
Pellicano said Jackson was
warned charges would be
Hied in court as part of a cus
tody dispute between the
boy’s divorced parents if the
sum was not paid.
Pellicano said he and Jack-
son met with the teen and his
father on Aug. 4 at a Southern
California hotel.
At that meeting, the father
accused Jackson of molesting
his son and demanded the
singer set him up as a screen
writer. Details of the meeting
were reported to police, Pelli
cano said.
The investigator added that
Jackson did not respond dur
ing the meeting, and that the
father stormed out of the room.
Hurricane Emily makes northwest turn
Southern Florida in the clear;
S. Carolina prepares for hit
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Zigzagging Hurricane Emily took a slight northwest turn
Saturday, eliciting a tentative collective sigh from Floridians and con
cern among those in South Carolina, where memories of Hurricane
Hugo remain fresh.
"We would love to have it miss us," Florida Gov. Lawton Chiles
said. "We'd love to have it miss the United States entirely, and just stay
on a northern course."
Hurricane specialist Miles Lawrence said, "My own personal
stress has eased up now that I know it appears it's not heading to
wards south Florida."
The National Hurricane Center in suburban Coral Gables said the
storm was moving west-northwest at 9 mph Saturday, and was
about 900 miles east of Florida and 400 miles south of Bermuda with
top sustained winds near 80 mph. Forecasters say the storm could hit
land Tuesday.
It was expected to increase in intensity to a Category 3 hurricane
within 72 hours, with winds exceeding 111 mph. At 11 a.m. EDT, Emily
was centered at latitude 26.6 north and longitude 65.8 west.
Hurricane watches may go up Sunday. Areas of concern ranged
from central Florida to the Carolinas, said Bob Sheets, director of the
hurricane center. But he wasn't ready to say the storm would miss
south Florida: "I don't think we can sound the 'all clear' here."
Kate Hale, emergency chief for Dade County, was more optimistic:
"This isn't our storm."
At the Windjammer lounge on the Isle of Palms, S.C., about 50 peo
ple paused from their revelry to listen to words of caution from
Charleston Mayor Joe Riley, who went through the devastating Hurri
cane Hugo in 1989.
"I think people are definitely worried about it," said Kai Dilling, a
bartender at the Windjammer, known for its pre-hurricane parties.
"I'd hate for it to hit here again. Hugo went right on through us last
time."
