Michael Jackson's mother, Katherine, was reportedly left devastated after she lost the 1.5 billion-dollar lawsuit which claimed that the promoter of her son's comeback concerts, AEG Live, was responsible for the pop singer's death by hiring the doctor whose negligence killed him.

According to a source closely connected to the Jackson family, they were counting on at least 2 billion dollars, Fox News reported.

The insider said that Katherine wanted the money because the Jacksons don't have what people think they do.

She gets money from the estate as does the late singer's kids Prince, Paris, and Blanket, but once Katherine dies, she has nothing to leave her children, Jermaine, Jackie, etc.
