The last videos of Michael Jackson were so top secret, they were transported in an unmarked truck, accompanied by armed guards in the dead of the night ... this according to new docs filed in the Conrad Murray manslaughter case.

You ask what Conrad Murray has to do with MJ videos?  Well, Dr. Murray wants to see ALL of the rehearsal videos shot for the doomed "This is It" tour.  Murray's lawyers believe it could show Michael was in such a frail condition ... there were many reasons for his death other than Propofol.

Murray's lawyers subpoenaed the tapes, but now Sony Pictures -- which has possession of the videos -- is objecting for several reasons.  Sony claims there are more than 20 boxes of videos and it would cost $200,000 to log and reproduce all of them.

But in the docs, Sony describes how top secret the videos were to the studio.  Sony lawyers say, "When they were transported to the Sony lot in Culver City, the transport in an unmarked truck was accompanied by armed guards in the dead of the night."

When the tapes were in an editing bay, security guards were posted outside the door and no Internet access was allowed in the room.

And a Sony honcho also submitted a declaration which says the videos "have a high monetary value inherent in their potential for future uses.  Those uses include one or more 'anniversary editions.'"

A TII 2 would be a great way to honor the 2nd anniversary of Michael's "death". Let us judge how sick and frail he was in these other hours of footage. bounce/  It would surely make lots more $$. 8-)

op Secret MJ Videos Protected by Armed Guards!

6/11/2011 1:00 AM PDT by TMZ Staff

The last videos of Michael Jackson were so top secret, they were transported in an unmarked truck, accompanied by armed guards in the dead of the night...

So, is this our clue? Maybe that Michael was transported by Armed Guards in an unmarked truck in the middle of the night?

Murray's lawyers subpoenaed the tapes, but now Sony Pictures -- which has possession of the videos -- is objecting for several reasons.  Sony claims there are more than 20 boxes of videos and it would cost $200,000 to log and reproduce all of them.

This story is crazy. There is no way that "if" Sony has 20 boxes of tapes that they haven't already gone through them, watched them, logged them, and protected them. We are talking Michael Jackson - the most recognizable person on the planet and probably the most valuable name in entertainment history. This made me think of someone's storage locker where they have old home movies just thrown in a box getting dusty.

I'm very interested, too. Some say he was healthy as a horse, some say he was sick and frail. If he was sick at all (he said he had laryngitis on 6-24), it wasn't to the point of DYING! He has shown no sides of being sick. In fact, I remember first seeing him at the O2 thinking how good he looked.

I'm still assuming that Murray and Sony both know about the Hoax. Like Purelove said, there's no way they are just letting 20 boxes of MJ tapes go to waste. It takes $200,000 to log them all?The actual tapes would make them millions more so that's a weak excuse  :roll:

That was my first thought too.  And notice the TS in the title?  Top Secret.  I kinda really think this article was aimed towards us.  TS has been AWOL, we still haven't figured out the details of June 25th so TMZ gives us a clue?  It's possible I suppose.

Exactly, these tapes are not just sitting there gathering dust.  Everything's been done already...unless these tapes are the movie MJ has been filming since June 25th and are waiting to be put together for the film ...and Murray's team would know this.  Not that the movie's premiere would be in front of a jury panel but if so, I hope they at least get some popcorn while watching the greatest show on earth.  I also find it interesting that extra precautions are being taken to make sure this footage doesn't leak on the internet or get in the wrong hands.

[paula-c]

yes, some say it was weak, some not, in the autopsy report that was published said that it was healthy ... suspicious//

Tapes?

Who the fuck uses tape anymore. No one. This would all be digital footage.

This is a direct link to the "missing tapes" CCTV footage from Carrolwood... which in my opinion is a direct tie in or link to something else.

I believe there ARE missing tapes, or secret tapes, or tapes that are very valuable, and hold some secret, some giant key to this entire puzzle... but I believe they are from years ago... say... 2003ish... and I believe they will come to light... and they are just flirting with us.

What does it mean by the last videos of Michael Jackson?  Are they recent videos or videos that he did 20 years ago?  Why bring this story out now?  I am sure that the "Estate" has gathered all his artistic works.  Also reminds me when they were delivering and guarding the This is It film - Men in Black - in the dead of night lol.   Seems to be some parallels to this story and the "protection" of This is It movie.

If you go to this IMDB link and check out the "Visual Effects" and "Camera and Electrical Department" crew list -
bec is right...

This would all be digital footage.

Isn't this the same or very similar TMZ story from April??

Murray Wants MJ Rehearsals To Show Warning Signs

4/29/2011 6:50 AM PDT by TMZ Staff

Dr. Conrad Murray's lawyers have subpoenaed Sony for the raw footage from the "This Is It" rehearsals to show the jury ... Michael Jackson was a physical and mental mess before he died ... TMZ has learned.

We've learned Murray's lawyers want the tapes to show Jackson was slow, lethargic and weak in the days prior to his death.  Although some of the video shows an alert MJ, other portions, we're told, clearly show something is wrong with the singer.

Murray's lawyers want to show jurors in the manslaughter case ... Michael was ill or even dying before the fateful morning ... so it wasn't really the June 25 Propofol injections that killed MJ.

Where is TMZ's link to the "Document" they are talking about in this article?

"this according to new docs filed in the Conrad Murray manslaughter case."
http://www.tmz.com/2011/06/11/michael-j ... ubpoenaed/

Don't they usually provide a link when they are talking about a specific "Document" ??

Hmmm...
