Jermaine Jackson claimed during a Dutch TV interview yesterday that his son Jaafar had really only purchased the stun gun at the center of the latest Jackson controversy, as a thoughtful little present for him. He told the show,

He was getting this little thing for me. And somehow, someone alerted the press and it got out of hand. There was no encounter with Blanket or anything. It was just to create talk. But my son feels very, very bad because he had told me that he was going to get me something online and then before we left to come out here and somehow it just got out of hand, but Blanket is fine.

The Department of Children and Family Services is still investigating the incident.
