Michael Jackson’s “Second Family” Claim He Sexually Abused Four Kids in New Lawsuit

Michael Jackson’s “Second Family” Claim He Sexually Abused Four Kids in New Lawsuit A lawyer for the estate, Marty Singer, released a statement calling the family’s efforts a “desperate money grab,” and added, “The family staunchly defended Michael Jackson for more than 25 years, attesting to his innocence of inappropriate conduct. This new court filing is a transparent forum-shopping tactic in their scheme to obtain hundreds of millions of dollars from Michael’s estate and companies.” The family said they were partly motivated by watching HBO’s now-shelved 2019 documentary Leaving Neverland, where Jackson was accused of sexual abuse, noting it helped “deprogram” them and helped them process what happened.
