Jordy Chandler al in 1993. Gavin Arvizo en zijn broertje Star in 2003. De zoon van Blanca Francia. Terry George. Jimmy Safechuck en Wade Robson waarover de docu Leaving Neverland gaat beschuldigen MJ na z'n dood. Je kunt wel denken dat al die jongens en hun ouders die verhalen verzinnen om geld los te peuteren, maar het is wel toevallig dat ze dan elke keer MJ moeten hebben.
Een lijstje met namen lijkt indrukwekkend, totdat je de moeite neemt om ze stuk voor stuk tegen het licht te houden. Geen van de aanklagers is naar de politie gegaan, maar eerst naar een advocaat. Achteraf bekeken is het een domme zet geweest van Jackson om de Chandler zaak af te kopen, want dat is de blauwdruk geweest voor de latere aanklachten. Al was het afkopen begrijpelijk in die tijd, hij was in een hoek gedreven.
Chandler case:
GQ longread artikel uit 1994:
Was Michael Jackson Framed? (helaas staat het originele artikel niet meer online, in de link een copy-paste van de platte tekst.) quote:
It is, of course, impossible to prove a negative—that is, prove that something didn’t happen. But it is possible to take an in-depth look at the people who made the allegations against Jackson and thus gain insight into their character and motives. What emerges from such an examination, based on court documents, business records and scores of interviews, is a persuasive argument that Jackson molested no one and that he himself may have been the victim of a well-conceived plan to extract money from him.
Arvizo case:
Fox News 'I would still vote not guilty today'quote:
“It was pretty obvious that there was no molestation done,” she said. “It was pretty obvious that there were ulterior motives on behalf of the family. And the mother, she orchestrated the whole thing…that’s my opinion. But there wasn’t a shred of evidence that was able to show us or give us any doubt in voting guilty. It was pretty obvious there was no other way to vote other than not guilty.”
Jason Francia: (ook aan bod gekomen in de 2005 rechtszaak)
Huffington Post One of the Most Shameful Episodes In Journalistic Historyquote:
The fourth 'victim', Jason Francia, took the stand and claimed that when he was a child, Jackson had molested him on three separate occasions. Pushed for details of the 'molestation', he said Jackson had tickled him three times outside his clothes and he'd needed years of therapy to get over it. The jury was seen rolling their eyes
[..]
although Jason Francia claimed that the acts of molestation occurred in 1990, he didn't report them until after the media storm over Chandler's claims, at which point his mother, Neverland maid Blanca Francia, promptly extracted $20,000 from Hard Copy for an interview with Diane Dimond and another $2.4million in a settlement from Jackson.
[..]
Transcripts also showed that Francia had previously said of the police, "They made me come up with stuff. They kept pushing. I wanted to hit them in the head."
Terry George: dit is alleen maar roddelpers, Terry zelf op
Twitter na MJ's overlijden:

I know the Sunday papers will write sh** about me and Michael Jackson tomorrow. If they do I’ll refute it on my Sky News interview at 9.10am

)Crux van het verhaal, je kunt een opsomming van aanklachten niet gebruiken als bewijs van iets, als de individuele gevallen op zichzelf al niet overeind blijven.
Galantly he chickened out...
