Nine months since he passed away, Michael Jackson's family has stopped paying
for the extra security to guard his tomb, RadarOnline.com has learned
exclusively.
After pulling their own private security from the area a month after the pop
icon's burial last fall, the Jackson family arranged to have a Forest Lawn
security guard to exclusively guard his tomb for up to 12 hours a day (a normal
guard shift). Jackson is buried in the Holly Terrace section of the Great
Mausoleum at Forest Lawn Memorial Park.
However, last week the family decided they no longer wanted to pay for the
service and felt Forest Lawn should handle the cost, according to a source close
to the situation. Since the cemetery felt differently, the guard has been
reassigned and there is no longer anyone exclusively guarding Jackson's tomb.
There are still restrictions on who is allowed to visit Jackson's final resting
place. There is an exclusive list of about 12-15 people who currently have
permission to. If anyone outside of that list wishes to visit, they must first
be cleared by a vice president of Forest Lawn's main Glendale, Calif., office.
