    Is there a single viable claim against him?

    From what I recall it was parents trying ton get money and nobody confirmed he abused them, even McAuley Cullen.

      I watched this not just with an open mind, but like you and many others here, with the mind that people were colluding to extort money from Jackson. This completely changed my mind.

      I mean, I get it. If one of my favourite artists was accused of being a pedo, I’d defend them and say the claims can’t be proven etc.

      In this case, I think it’s safe to say that whilst he wasn’t a full blown child rapist, that he clearly had an attraction to young boys that went much further than just fantasy.

        What with the whole Wonderland, seems like it, yeah.

        However… was that attraction sexual, per se?

        . Being a weirdly childish dude who wants to play with children seems way less worse than pretending to be a weird childish dude in order to rape kids.

        I can’t stand MJ music so he is far from an idol of mine.

        I just haven’t seen any evidence or convictions to claim he was a pedo. Even in this documentary, that I’ve seen a while ago.
