                                        What Reporters Were

                                              Dying To Know




                           While the news media and tabloids were having a field day
                           with the numerous witnesses who were coming forth against
                           Michael Jackson, not much was being reported from the Chan-
                           dler camp. But there were a lot of interesting things taking
                           place:

                                   Bomb Threats: The phones were still ringing off the wall
                           from news media and reporters. The office started receiving
                           threatening phone calls directed at Mr. Rothman. One day we
                           received a bomb threat. Of course, Mr. Rothman would not
                           allow us to leave the office. Even Mr. Rothman began coming

                           was told that this was his first vacation in five years.

                           Dr. Chandler and the boy came to our office to take shelter.
                           While everyone was looking for Dr. Chandler and his son, they
                           were held up at our office. They spent the night in the confer-
