Because you really never know.
I really think his family feels a sort of mix of emotions right now. They're probably sad, and really mad, and really tired.
I don't have a problem with the decadence of the burial either. I think he deserved it. Why is it such a big deal anyway? It's not like anyone's going to suffer because Michael is paying the city $1 million.
Now the burial a month later...I don't know what's up...and frankly, I really don't think I, or the world would want to know the truth. I prefer, just to remember him and my vision of him.
And since he's dead now, people really shouldn't care what the truth is, because it's not going to do anything to change their lives or anything.
I don't understand exactly what people want from that family anyway.
@CREAyumi: You know, at funerals, a lot of people like to refer to them as Celebrations of Life, not really remembrance of a person as dead.
A lot of people like the idea that people can get together, and bond over all the times they had with the person, and have a good time together, as family and friends.
And the reason why they had so many people there, and broadcasted it, was because so many people did love Michael, and because he also loved so many people, including all of his fans.
It's not really a concert. I mean, I've been to funerals where someone sings. His friends wanted to do that for him.

Nobody knows what Michael's family is feeling. I think with the way all of them were raised, it might be hard for them to show emotion because of how their father treated them.
Maybe they had to wait so long to figure out WHERE they were going to bury him and what kind of ceremony they wanted. I mean, if Michael was buried in a public place, God knows how many people would be bombarding his burial sight, and even trying to dig him up. (People are crazy!)
It was Michael's money. It's not like they took it from anyone. Their lives are none of our business.
