His father, Joe, lives in Vegas, and in 2006, US Weekly reported Michael had bought a house in the Valley.Michael was also spotted in December 2007 at a local Barnes and Noble with bandages on his face.But perhaps his biggest Las Vegas visit was in November 2003, as the accusations of child molestation were heating up. Jackson flew back to Las Vegas after entering a not guilty plea in Santa Barbara.He took a two-hour drive from McCarran Airport to Green Valley Ranch and drew a large crowd of supporters.In May 2007, an auction at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino brought in quite a bit of money. Some of Jackson's clothing, albums and awards were sold to the highest bidder.Michael's father was in Las Vegas Thursday when he got word of his son’s sudden cardiac arrest.
