LOS ANGELES (AP) -- The first hints about Michael Jackson's final wishes surfaced Tuesday in a will he signed nearly seven years ago to the day, and although details won't be available until the document is filed possibly today in a court, there's nothing to indicate that its instructions are at odds with the hasty arrangements made by the singer's mother and father.
The will gives guardianship over his children to the singer's mother and leaves all his assets in a trust fund, a person with knowledge of the document told Associated Press on Tuesday.
The will was signed on July 7, 2002, and named as executors Jackson's longtime lawyer John Branca and John McClain, a music executive and a family friend, said the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak on the topic.
The will surfaced just a day after the family said in court documents it believed the 50-year-old entertainer had died without a valid will.
