Mayor Rejects Idea Of Handouts For MJ Memorial Expenses

Last week we reported that the city of Los Angeles was requesting donations to help defray the cost of public services for the Michael Jackson memorial. This morning mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said that the city of L.A. alone was responsible for those costs. Where there had previously been a request for donations and a link to Paypal on the mayor’s website, there is now only the following statement:

We are no longer accepting donations. Thank you to those who donated.
