Today is the two-year anniversary of Michael Jackson's death -- and the saga has played out like a soap opera about betrayal, jealousy, love, greed and redemption.
When TMZ broke the news, it triggered a flood of stories about Jackson's struggles with drugs, the doctors who enabled him, the mystery surrounding his death, a little known drug called propofol, a family war against Michael's estate, a full court press to erase Michael's debt, and a posthumous marketing campaign to rival Elvis.
Take a look at TMZ's timeline from the moment we found something was terribly wrong with Michael.

All alone wishing on stars
Waiting for آپ to find me
One sweet night I knew I would see
A stranger who'd be my friend
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells آپ never be afraid
Then somewhere in your دل آپ can feel the glow
A light to keep آپ warm when the night winds blow
Like it was written in the stars I knew
My friend, my someone in the dark was you
Promise me we'll always be
Walking the world together
Hand in hand where dreams never end
My سٹار, ستارہ secret friend and me
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells آپ never be afraid
Then somewhere in your دل آپ can feel the glow
A light to keep آپ warm when the night winds blow
Look for the قوس قزح in the sky
I believe آپ and I
Could never really say goodbye
Wherever آپ may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
Wherever آپ may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
Waiting for آپ to find me
One sweet night I knew I would see
A stranger who'd be my friend
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells آپ never be afraid
Then somewhere in your دل آپ can feel the glow
A light to keep آپ warm when the night winds blow
Like it was written in the stars I knew
My friend, my someone in the dark was you
Promise me we'll always be
Walking the world together
Hand in hand where dreams never end
My سٹار, ستارہ secret friend and me
When someone in the dark reaches out to you
And touches off a spark that comes shining through
It tells آپ never be afraid
Then somewhere in your دل آپ can feel the glow
A light to keep آپ warm when the night winds blow
Look for the قوس قزح in the sky
I believe آپ and I
Could never really say goodbye
Wherever آپ may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
Wherever آپ may be
I'll look up and see
Someone in the dark for me
Michael Jackson's estate is lashing out at the people behind a new MJ documentary set to debut in Japan tomorrow -- claiming شائقین are being duped into believing the flick was authorized سے طرف کی Team MJ.
The estate has released a scathing statement claiming that فلیمنگو, فلیمِنگو Features is promoting the movie in a way that is misleading MJ's شائقین into believing the film -- shot سے طرف کی former MJ confidante Marc Schaffel -- was properly authorized.
The estate also makes it clear it doesn't endorse the flick and none of the profits will benefit MJ's children. They also note that the movie is not allowed to contain any of Michael's music.
Schaffel doesn't appear to be bothered -- the above تصویر was taken moments پہلے at the movie premiere in Tokyo ... where Schaffel took the stage and told شائقین Katherine Jackson sent along her best wishes.
Tuesday, we shot video of Schaffel and Debbie Rowe boarding a plane to Tokyo.

According to the federal suit, obtained سے طرف کی TMZ, T-Line is downright "defiant," sardonically writing a blog that says, "...it SUCKS TOTAL BOLLOCKS when people steal those creations..."
The suit seeks $750 for each image illegally used, as well as statutory damages of $150,000.
