'This Is It' Producer: I Didn't Cause Michael's Death
19 minutes ago by TMZ Staff

The producer/director of Michael Jackson's "This Is It" tour is scoffing at Katherine Jackson's wrongful death suit in which he's named as a defendant, because he had nothing to do with the drugs or treatment that caused the singer's death.

Kenny Ortega just filed legal docs -- obtained by TMZ -- asking the court to remove him as a defendant in Katherine's suit, claiming, "Kenneth Ortega is not alleged to be involved in the medical treatment or administration of drugs that allegedly caused Michael Jackson's death."

Ortega's lawyer adds ... Kenny never had a contract with Dr. Conrad Murray or with  Michael Jackson, nor has he had any official affiliation with AEG.

Ortega's lawyer says, "The naming of Kenneth Ortega as a defendant in this action, without any basis, without any substantive charging allegations against him, is a gross error."

 :lol:  Good for you!  I remember when I first figured out how to include the images, I had to upgrade my browser first.


I'm kind of wondering why the title refers to Kenny as producer instead of director.  He is one of four producers (including MJ) and the only listed director.  Just found that a bit weird.

What does he mean he never had a contract with Michael?  Surely, he must have been under contract for the tour and the rehearsals. And I'm pretty sure he also must have signed a confidentiality agreement, like everyone else who worked on this project.

So, whom was KO under contract with?

Regarding the poster whom responded to the article re: allegedly causing michaels' death, ..it has to be listed as allegedly because no one knows the exact cause of the death. Of course, this is why the preliminary trial is occurring.
