Joe Jackson (Michael's Dad)...says he's entitled to $500 Million!

Michael Jackson's dad thinks he's entitled to a payout from Dr. Conrad Murray -- the man who allegedly gave the King of Pop that fatal dose of sedative. And according to TMZ, he's thinking of a figure in the neighborhood of 500 million bucks!

Joe Jackson has made the monetary request as part of his wrongful death lawsuit. He says 20 percent of his damages are for loss of support, 40 percent are for emotional distress, and 40 percent are for "loss of comfort, society and companionship" -- an interesting choice of words, since he and Michael supposedly never spoke...What A Piece Of WORK...and by "Work"...I mean CRAP!
