“Things reached a head when Randy was trying to force his way past the bodyguards to speak to him in one of his rented homes. Michael ordered him to be shot.”

Luckily for Randy, Jackson was at the time “out of mind on drugs,” and his Nation of Islam body guards didn’t act on his request.

“I don’t think Michael ever intended to kill him, and told the guards to shoot him in the leg,” Fiddes added. “But Randy was so scared he got on the phone and threatened to call the press.”

According to the bodyguard, Randy then turned the tables on the bodyguards, saying, “If you shoot me, the whole world will know about it.”

Fiddes has spoken to the press before to talk about matters that, if true, would be Jackson’s biggest secrets.

He recently claimed paternity for Jackson’s youngest son, Blanket, telling The Sun that he’d given Michael a sperm sample in 2001 when the singer “wanted to create an athletic child.”

His claims have not been corroborated.

His current girlfriend, Monique Foxx, 18, stands behind his statements.

“Thank God I have Monique behind me now,” he told the tabloid. “Fans hate me for this and for getting all this off my chest — but it’s finally time.”
