Jackson’s body on way to Staples center
LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) – Michael Jackson’s body is on its way to the memorial service at the Staples Center in downtown Los Angeles, sources involved in the planning said.
Jackson’s family and closest friends attended a gathering at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Hollywood Hills on Tuesday morning before going to the public memorial.
Jackson’s family and friends were at the chapel, which can hold about 1,000 people. Shortly thereafter seven suited men wheeled out a golden casket covered in red flowers from Forest Lawn’s Hall of Liberty.
Teddy Riley, a singer who worked closely with Jackson on several albums, said Jackson family members told him the casket will be driven in a procession from Forest Lawn to the arena.
A second source familiar with the planning also said the King of Pop’s body would be delivered to the arena.
