Michael Jackson's two older children want to take the stand in the manslaughter trial against their father's former physician, Dr Conrad Murray.
Prince, 14, and Paris, 13, want to tell the court what they saw on the day Michael died, but the family is in agreement that their younger brother Blanket, nine, is too young to testify.
Prince and Paris both witnessed Dr Murray attempting to resuscitate their father and they believe they have evidence that could see him found guilty of manslaughter.
But an insider says the childrens' testimony could have the opposite affect and may end up actually helping Dr Murray's case.
“Prince and Paris adored Doctor Murray and thought he was a godsend for their father,” the source tells the Daily Mail.
“It was only after their father's death that they formed a subsequent opinion of him. Both Prince and Paris could take the stand and wind up providing evidence which supports the doctor.”
Their testimony could help Murray's defence even more if the teenagers are questioned about their father's drug use.
The source gives this sad insight into how sick MJ had become: “After saying goodbye to her dad at the hospital, Paris is said to have remarked, 'My daddy is so cold again. He was always cold. He would sit by the fire to get warm. We were always afraid he would fall in as he was so close to the flames. He couldn't get warm. Now there he is... so cold.'”
