Katherine Jackson is accusing her nephew-in-law Trent Jackson of relentless bullying and elder abuse.
The Jackson family matriarch, 86, asked for a restraining order
Wednesday claiming the relative who has acted as her driver for years
manipulated and intimidated her into submission and accessed her bank
accounts without permission.
The court granted a temporary stay-away order, prohibiting Trent from
entering her gated community in Calabasas, using her credit cards or
coming within 100 yards of her, according to paperwork obtained by the
Daily News.
“She has had enough, her health is fragile and she is tired of being frightened,” the paperwork filed by her lawyer said.
The paperwork states that the nephew, 52, has put a stranglehold on her connection to the outside world.
“Trent was supposed to be her driver, but over time (he) has
infiltrated Mrs. Jackson’s business and personal affairs, even referring
to himself as her ‘house manager,’” the filing states.
“Trent has made it his business to regulate Mrs. Jackson’s interactions
with her children — screening phone calls, not relaying messages, now
allowing privacy during visits or phone calls,” it claims.
“Because he managed to get a key to her bedroom, he opens her door at
his will with no regard to her privacy,” it states. “Mrs. Jackson has to
hide in her closet to speak to her kids so she can speak freely.”
One time, he pulled the car over while they were on a drive and yelled
at her to reveal what she had discussed with a close family friend, the
paperwork alleges.
The filing also accuses Trent of tricking the King of Pop’s mom into
taking a trip to Indiana that she thought would be brief. He kept her
there for more than a month, the paperwork claims.
Mrs. Jackson took a trip to London so that her team could fire Trent
and remove him from her guesthouse while she was out of town, it states.
“Mrs. Jackson wants to return home from London but is afraid to go home
with Trent there,” the filing states. “She fears he could physically
harm her for terminating him.”
A hearing has been set for March 1.
