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.

Yes even Jordan Chandler said that there was a couple of occasions he told Michael he didn't like something and then Michael would cry and try to manipulate him into letting him and say there was nothing wrong with them and that another boy (Michaels cousin I think) let him do those things so he must not love him as much as he did, but that Michael didn't try to do them again.

He also expressed regret that he hadn't stopped letting Michael do other things to him and felt that he could have prevented them by telling him not to, seeing as he didn't try those other things again.

Yes.

But remember the tape recording of Evan chandler (jordans dad) saying that he was going to destroy Michael Jackson

Of course he could speak normally. The high voice was an act. He was probably sexually abused himself - that does not excuse him to carry it on.

Yes, even Lisa Marie said that he didn't always have that high voice.

@MyTrivia @kkloo all I suggest is you do more research beyond tabloid style reporting. The mainstream media have an invested interest in reporting on one side here.

And what is their vested interest ? What have they to gain?

I’d probably say the same thing about anyone who abused my child - wouldnt you?

Of course his high voice wasnt his real voice. A lot of them put on a celebrity persona.

Its like how Paris hilton puts on a high baby voice

Perfectly normal thing to say if someone is grooming your son.

The supporters never mention what was on the rest of the tape.
Evan saying about Jordan ' I love him so much that I am willing to destroy my own life to protect him....'

MyTrivia · 10/05/2026 17:47

Yes he put the voice on to hoodwink people into thinking he was this asexual doll type person who didn’t represent a threat to children.

A wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Delphismum · 10/05/2026 17:48

Yes, to not is willful blindness

Its also a normal thing to say if you are going to try to extort someone for money.

And he got a LOT of money out of it

Did you listen to the rest of the recordings or just that bit?

ImWearingPantaloons · 10/05/2026 17:51

My thoughts always go back to the original allegations and how the parents accepted money from him.

If your child came to you saying that anyone had abused them, would ANY amount of money make you shut up and go away?? It wouldn’t for me…

Wade Robson was brainwashed like all the others. It was only when he had his own child that he realised how wrong it was what MJ had done to him.

There is actually a rift between Wades wife and his mother because the former is angry that his mother didn’t protect him. She was a stage parent, out for fame.

Edited

Brainwashed by his parents to convince him something happened unfortunately.

Scarlettjune · 10/05/2026 17:51

The thing is, none of us can know for sure. But we can speculate.

Obviously money can be a reason why someone would make up a fake accusation.

But then why are other rich celebrities not being targeted with paedophile accusations, for money

You’ve got to put yourself in the position of realising that $25 million is a life changing amount of money. Can you honestly say you would give up the chance to never have to worry about bills again? Never have to work again? The abuse could not be taken back.

I would also say that am innocent person doesn’t offer a payout like that.

People get paid off by celebrities all the time to keep quiet about affairs and other things. That’s why there are these super injunctions.

I completely understand why you wouldnt want a child to have to re-live a traumatic experience in court with massive publicity and media surrounding it. MJ would have afforded the best lawyers who would obviously cross examine and ask intimate and difficult questions (as they are paid to do) ...and i can understand a parent not wanting to put their child in that situation

There are many, many accusers at this point.

To be fair, MJ was put on trial for one of them and was found innocent.

Hubhubba26 · 10/05/2026 17:58

There are so many counter arguments which just aren't covered. What about the many individuals approached with offers of money to tell their "stories" There's many examples of this which aren't covered in the mainstream media. Why? Because this would blow the cover on how the media operates.

Scarlettjune · 10/05/2026 17:59

If nothing else, he was unbelievably stupid. I think he was very mentally damaged.

He was accused of child sexual abuse in 1993. This nearly ruined his career and cost him 20+ million.

Then he does an interview with Martin Bashir and goes on camera saying that he has slept with children in his bed.

How stupid of him.this then launched another investigation into him

And this was after he had his own children. Saying that on camera put himself at risk of going to prison or having his children taken off him

Not guilty does not mean you're found innocent, just that the prosecution failed to convince the jury of guilt.

Aaron Carter (singer) said his mother was approached by someone.

Aaron said that they wanted Aaron to lie and say that Michael sexually abused him.

He refused to say it

The lawyers for Safechuck and Robson are saying that as many as 20 families have been paid off so it will be interesting to see what evidence they bring to the lawsuit.

Aaron also said he woke up one day and found MJ at the bottom of his bed in 'tighty wighties'
