In a four-hour interview with the News of the World, La Toya, 53 said:
"Michael WAS murdered, and we don't think just one person was involved. Rather, it was a conspiracy of people. I feel it was all about money. Michael was worth well over a billion in music publishing assets and somebody killed him for that. He was worth more dead than alive."
She refused to name the people involved saying:
"I can't say who I believe is responsible as I don't want to jeopardize the police investigation."
Some of the other points, La Toya made in the interview include:
Michael feared he could be targeted in conspiracy.
"A couple of years ago Michael told me he was worried that people were out to get him. He said, 'They're gonna kill me for my publishing. They want my catalogues and they're gonna kill me for these.'"
The conspirators isolated him from his family and fed him a cocktail of drugs.
"Michael was being controlled. No one could get through to him."
"Michael was being inappropriately treated by people who got him hooked on drugs."
Millions of dollars in cash and jewels disappeared from Michael's house the day he died.
"Michael always had cash in his homes, usually around $2 million which he used to pay out on things. People said he wasn't wealthy, but Michael always had money with him.
"When I went to the house later that day there was NO cash or jewelry. So many people had been through that house before I got there. Someone went in there and did a good job. It was very strange."
Michael wasn't interested in doing 50 shows.
"He didn't want to do 50 shows, he only wanted to do 10. But he was pushed. And Michael being Michael didn't want to let down his fans.
His schedule in the run up to the concerts was too grueling for him.
"A month ago I felt Michael was going to die before he did his London concerts."
Michael wanted to give up music and become a film director.
"He really wanted to be a movie director. He was doing everything to make that happen. He had an idea do a horror film called 'Thriller'. He designed the poster for it already.
The staff loyal to him was fired within hours of his death.
When the family returned to his rented Holmby Hills mansion at 11:30pm on the day of his death "we were told all the guys loyal to Michael had been fired. I couldn't work it out."
