Do you believe the Michael Jackson allegations?

For me it’s undeniable and the evidence is overwhelming, but I’m shocked by the amount of people who don’t.

That's what 'hiding in plain sight' means.Same as Jimmy Saville. He told us what he was doing.

Exactly, I heard there's lots of telling stuff in his autobiography.

Wade Robson still teaches dance using MJ's music. Make of that what you will 🤔🤦‍♂️

Jackson had an extensive collection of adult erotic material he kept in a suitcase next to his bed, including S&M bondage photos and a study of naked boys. Forensic experts with experience in the Secret Service found the fingerprints of boys alongside Jackson’s on the same pages. Jackson also had bondage sculptures of women with ball gags in their mouths on his desk, in full view of the boys who slept there. Make of that what you will.

Haven't RTFT so apologies if someone else has shared the same thought. One thing that I think clearly points to him being the predator he is accused of being is:

If he was just 'child-like' and 'enjoyed the company of children', why is it all little boys? Why was he not enjoying the friendship of little girls? Why are there no accusations from girls, if it's all just a money grab? He was sexually attracted to boy children and he abused them; that's why.

This. And why were the boys abandoned once they reached puberty?

thehaplessgardener · 07/05/2026 09:20

I have heard that even Paris thinks MJ is guilty of the allegations.

AutumnLover1990 · 07/05/2026 09:20

Princejoffyjaffur · 07/05/2026 08:54

No, I suspect it's people after a payout

Agreed. I did think no smoke without fire years ago. I now believe too many were after money and MJ kept putting himself in vulnerable positions.
The film is still number 1 in the cinemas and has broken records so luckily it seems I'm not the only one that doesn't believe the allegations.

"Heard". Again more rumours. She's said no such things. See this is what happens and what he's had to put up with all these years

AliasGrape · 07/05/2026 09:22

I do believe them, I find it incredible that anyone still thinks he was just a poor, childlike innocent who was being friendly, and have to admit I've been very (inwardly) judgemental of colleagues (parents) who have cheerfully been chatting about going to see the film and how great it was.

Would you be ok with a teacher at your kids school having favourites that he invited for sleepovers in his bed?
And then dropping them for younger boys when they hit puberty?
All innocent and loving though, he just really loves little boys.

She has and it’s documented.

Actually, I think it is both. At first I thought he was a complete immature man with important psychological problems when the allegations first started to be voiced. (I was a very young adult then). He thought he was a kid. But after that parents STILL took their kids to stay at his mansion. Now, I would never take my son after allegations were made, so I think the ghastly parents who still did this really wanted compromising situations where they could then sue MJ for millions and live a comfortable life ever after. Yes, they walk among us.
I love his music, but yes, I now think he wasn´t an ill man trying to be a kid, he was a pedophile.

This kind of comment really annoys me. It's not surprising victims of sexual abuse grow up with a range of trauma based issues and yet people seem to think they should somehow become adults who only make completely rational decisions and have perfect recall of horrifyingly traumatic memories.

Hedgehogbrown · 07/05/2026 09:56

Yes. It's nuts how he's not been properly cancelled. Like Saville, it seems obvious.

Crikey. I heard about it elsewhere, but there's a headline about it in the Daily Mail.

Ah the oracle that is The daily fail 🤦‍♂️🙄🤣Until I hear from the horses mouth, I'll take posts like this with a HUGE pinch of salt. She's said no such thing but people like to read what they like into anything she may or may not have said.

Oh, great. I'm sure Paris will pop over soon to let you know. Put the kettle on.

Daily Mail? Is that really the level of source people think is credible? How risible.

I know. Bonkers. ONE source. If it was true,all the MAJOR news outlets would be on this but nope. BS 🤥🤦‍♂️🙄

thehaplessgardener · 07/05/2026 10:23

Quite a few of you who cannot google or read linked articles, I see. (Do let me know what you think about the Vanity Fair one I linked above.)

She distanced herself long before this DM article, and - as has been widely reported elsewhere - wanted nothing to do with the version of her father's life the film is presenting.

“A big section of the film panders to a very specific section of my dad’s fandom that still lives in the fantasy and they’re gonna be happy with it.” Paris Jackson
