Michael Jackson Allegation

 More allegations of Michael Jackson sexually assaulting children have came out. Michael Jackson claimed that the Cascio family was like his second family, and four out of five children have come out and accused him of sexually assaulting them. They have claimed that since they were younger, they were brainwashed by him and were trained to defend him against other allegations. In an interview with Oprah in 2011, they even came out and had said that he never assaulted them. These claims never came out before because they claimed to be "too overwhelmed" by the situations, and it wasn't until 2019 when they watched the documentary Leaving Neverland, they were able to compare the experiences in the documentary to their own. 

There were many years of back and forth about lawsuits, which the siblings were able to get $16 million from Jackson's estate distributed over the span of 5 years. However, once those 5 years were coming to an end, they demanded more money or else they were going to take the suit public. The timing of all of these comments however, came out on the same day as the film Michael, which is about Michael Jackson and how he grew up. There are so many claims against him that it (in my opinion) is getting harder and harder to now believe them. Also, there's many claims that say the exact opposite so it is very hard to determine who is telling the truth and what actually happened.
