Michael Jackson's father Joe Jackson said in a press conference outside his home Monday that the family was planning a large public funeral for the deceased singer. Michael Jackson died Thursday at the age of 50. Joe Jackson says funeral details will come out after the second autopsy is concluded.

"We aren't ready for [releasing information on the funeral]. We don't have the time frame yet because we want to see when the private autopsy comes out."

Joe Jackson says the funeral will not be closed to the public, as his son would likely have wanted a large public service.
