Diane Dimond: Where's Michael Jackson's Body?

Canvas background demo

 

Now that Michael Jackson's private and public memorials are behind, there are new inquiries about his death. ET looks at the questions that everyone's asking, including: where is his final resting place?

There was a rose-covered casket brought from Forest Lawn on Tuesday to the Staples Center in Los Angeles, but was Michael's body in it?

"We are hearing a story this morning that there was no body in that casket," Diane Dimond, who has been covering the King of Pop since 1993, says. "It may be a wild rumor, but two different people from inside Jackson's camp have told us that Michael's body was not in the casket -- that it was, in fact, either buried or cremated the night before at Forest Lawn cemetery."

Then there are sources who tell ET that Michael's body could eventually be moved to Neverland.

"Think of the money that could be made if Neverland becomes like Graceland," Diane says.

Another new question in regard to Michael's death is: Did his body have collapsed veins and needle marks?

"An unidentified source told CNN that Michael's veins were collapsed and his arms were riddled with puncture marks -- these are both things found in intravenous drug users. ...So this adds to the growing speculation that prescription drugs may have played a part in Michael's death," Diane says.

For all the latest on the investigation into Michael's death, check back here and tune in to ET.
