The Jackson estate took legal action to get the first Leaving Neverland documentary taken down. HBO apparently signed a contract with Jackson years ago not to say anything bad about him and they used that.
I thought the new documentary was really interesting actually.
The payouts they mention Jackson made to a Jane Doe and Jason Francia and Jordan Chandler (maybe there are others they haven't discovered) over sexual abuse claims long before he was charged over Gavin Arvizio
(It has been claimed on this thread recently that Jackson didn't get any feedback his behaviour of sleeping with children etc was wrong. Well having to make repeated large payouts is a pretty big indication. So why did he keep doing it? There is an obvious explanation. That he was a pedofile and unable to stop.)
The massive difficulty Wade and James had in bringing a case because of the statue of limitations. They are clearly motivated by a desire for justice. If you just wanted money it would be much easier and less stressful to take a big payout from the estate as the Cascio siblings did initially and I am sure others have done. But then you have to sign a NDA and keep living the lie. I suppose you get some financial compensation and no death threats though so I can hardly blame any victims of Jackson's who chose this route.
The sheer amount of money the Jackson estate is making out of Jackson's legacy. They have a huge interest in covering up his behaviour and do not want this case to get to court. They therefore have made every effort to delay the court case for as long as possible.
The lawyer speaking about the devastating life long effects of CSA and how many of his former clients have killed themselves.
James' ongoing trauma. He seems close to tears a lot of the time. Probably made worse by all the stress of the court case and the death threats from fans. (On a side note why are these people not prosecuted for harassment?). He now seems to have disassociated from himself as a child and is referring to himself in the third person. It does worry me. I hope he is ok.
