Los Angeles - (Wrinkly Ass Mess): LAPD officials probing Michael Jackson's smack overdose swooped on US concert promoter David Gest this morning.
The raid followed a tip-off from London cops who recently ransacked Gest's Camden Lock pad on an international sex ring warrant connected with ex-wife Lisa Minelli's October 2003 FBI statement.
Gest, 69, has been a longtime friend of Jacko's, introducing him to his personal plastic surgeon, his proctologist, his Kleinian shrink, his cocaine dealer, three discreet Lemon Brothers moneylaundering specialists and the ultimate lender of the last resort - a troubleshooting White House brothel Madam called Big Barry.
Gest's personal videonasties footage of the Jackson family's Encino compound shenanigans 'disappeared' from a secure bank vault shortly after 9/11.
