The news about the alleged disappearance and possible drugging of Katherine Jackson is playing out in gossip and tabloid blogs as well as in social media sites. It seems like there are as many versions of the story behind the disappearance of Katherine Jackson as there people that would benefit from it. What is clear is that Katherine Jackson's grandchildren, a slew of doctors, different sheriff departments, and a bunch of Hollywood lawyers are all involved in the case.

It was just a year ago when another senior citizen and Hollywood personality was involved in a p

ossible elderly abuse situation. In 2011, Hollywood legend Mickey Rooney spoke to before the Senate Special Committee on Aging on elderly abuse after having made news by alleging that he was abused by a family member.

All cases of elderly abuse are sad, but unfortunately to some senior citizens in Hollywood they are often worth more dead than alive. As a key person behind the Michael Jackson estate, Katherine Jackson is in the middle of a ugly Jackson family war for control the estate that is speculated to be worth hundreds of millions.
