New Michael Jackson Child Molestation Allegations
The man is dead and he is still having people accuse him of horrible things. A top choreographer who has helped some pretty big names in Hollywood, like, Britney Spears, NSYNC, Pink and even Usher! The choreographer’s name is Wade Robson and he has filed legal documents that claim he was sexually abused by Michael Jackson when he was a kid. Wade, who is now 30-years-old claims that he met Jackson when was just five-years-old and he would often sleep over at Neverland Ranch and even at Jackson’s home in Los Angeles and Las Vegas. He claims the sleepovers started when he was around 7 and ended when he was 14.
The details of the case are still a little bit fuzzy, but apparently Robson’s lawyer is asking the judge in the Michael Jackson Estate case to allow him to file a late creditor’s claim. It is believed that Robson does have proof of going to see a child psychiatrist as a child. However, people are still skeptical of his claims and probably for good reason. Back in 2005, Robson actually testified in Michael Jackson’s famous child molestation trial. Robson denied in front of a judge that the singer ever abused him in any way. Now, one could say that Robson was just scared of telling the truth at the time.
However, just as recently as 2009 when Michael Jackson died, Robson had nothing but nice things to say about Michael Jackson, Robson said in 2009.
“Michael Jackson changed the world and, more personally, my life forever. He is the reason I dance, the reason I make music, and one of the main reasons I believe in the pure goodness of human kind.”
That certainly doesn’t sound like something someone would say about a person who used to molest them as a child, right? I mean, I understand that every reacts to differently to these things and that he might have been too embarrassed to say anything. But to say he is one of the main reasons you believe in the pure goodness of human kind? That seems a little odd to me.
Although, a former housekeeper for Michael Jackson did testify back in 2005 that she actually saw Michael Jackson in the shower with Wade Robson when he was just 9-years-old. So, I guess there is really evidence on both sides of this story. Of course, Jackson was eventually acquitted on all charges back in 2005.
The lawyer handling Michael Jackson’s Estate is already firing back at the claims Mr. Robson is making. Attorney Howard Weitzman told TMZ,
“Mr. Robson’s claim is outrageous and pathetic. This is a young man who has testified at least twice under oath over the past 20 years and said in numerous interviews that Michael Jackson never did anything inapposite to him or with him. Now, nearly 4 years after Michael has passed, this sad and less than credible claim has been made.”
I agree, even if it’s true to issue these allegations at this point is Outrageous and Pathetic.
