...tabloid journalists from Britain's Daily Express broke the news that Biggs was hiding out in Rio de Janeiro. Scotland Yard's subsequent efforts to extradite him were foiled after Biggs fathered a child, Michael, with Raimunda de Castro, a nightclub dancer and alleged prostitute; Brazilian law protected the parents of Brazilian citizens. And while Biggs could not legally work in Brazil, he was able to live freely and profit from coffee mugs and T shirts branded with his name and image. (TIME flashback 1981: "Biggs Bagged...

Crying under her green knit cap, she reaches for "Visionary," a black box of video singles from the King of Pop and a few of the Michael Jackson boxed figurines on display. Sho-ma - a dancer whose first exposure to Jackson was the album "Off the Wall" when she was in the third grade - said she first heard the news of Michael Jackson's death at 8 a.m. at her home in Tokyo. Another fan in the shop, 23-year-old Toshiki Nakamura, pulls out his iPhone...
