We contacted GMA/ABC News about a follow up interview after our book came out. We were told the book was great however it did not have enough controversial information. Sorry to disappoint them.

The FBI found - nothing, nothing, nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!

@AndrewGreene864
A very brief summary of what the FBI found on Michael Jackson. These investigations occurred between 1993 and 2005. There is an overall theme on their findings, hang on to your seats! https://vault.fbi.gov/Michael%20Jackson

“With no proof, no recorded phone call, and nothing reported to law enforcement or lawsuits filed, nothing ever materialized over George's allegation and Legat London and the FBI took no further action.”

“The FBI meticulously went through all 16 hard drives and found nothing incriminating on them.”

“Sometime after the video tape’s conversion, it was noted that "there are no outstanding leads or evidence items."

“Due to credibility issues over back pay, their claims were dismissed.”

“The investigation of whether it contained child pornography was concluded on January 24, 1997. No charges were filed, because no illegal material was found on any of Jackson’s properties.”

In 2004, Jordan Chandler was approached by 2 agents to testify against Jackson in the 2005 trial, he informed the two agents that he would not testify against Jackson and would "legally fight any attempts to do so." The case was closed, citing "no outstanding leads or evidence…

Jackson was acquitted of all charges on June 13, 2005.

Miko Brando demanded changes for yet another Michael Jackson story. Marlon Brando's son beat reports that his late father reduced Michael Jackson to tears during a conversation about his sexuality. Miko Brando, who was a close friend of the King of Pop before his death in 2009, contested Brandon Ogborn's podcast disclosure in a letter to the Los Angeles Times, insisting that his father's words to Michael were "distorted". “I was friends with Michael Jackson for over 27 years and my father adored him,” writes Miko. "I don't appreciate my dad's words being twisted to imply that Michael hurt someone." In his podcast Telephone Stories: The Trials of Michael Jackson, Ogborn claimed to have unearthed a sworn statement by Brando to prosecutors when Jackson was under investigation for child molestation in 1994, detailing a conversation he had with Jackson at the singer's Neverland ranch. Ogborn verified the authenticity of the statement with Lauren Weis, who investigated Jackson as a prosecutor. This prompted Brando to ask Jackson about his friends, which prompted the Thriller singer to respond: “I don't know anyone my age. I don't like anyone my age”. As Brando pressed Jackson for more details, the singer began to cry. “He was crying so hard that…I tried to calm him down. I tried to help him in everything I could. In his conclusion, the Times reporter stated: "Brando told prosecutors that he originally thought Jackson was gay, but now he believed it was‘ quite reasonable to conclude that he may have had something to do with children’." Furious Miko writes: “This is just someone's cheap publicity stunt to promote their paid podcast. My dad would never have been friends with Michael if he thought he was capable of harming children, and he would never insinuate anything negative about Michael. Please correct his story. ” Ogborn did not respond to Miko's letter.

June 2, 2005. Tom Mesereau's plea at St. Mary's trial
Mesereau rested his argument, saying #MichaelJackson had been careless with his money and had let the wrong people around him,
but that he was not guilty of any crime.
′′ This has been a nightmare for Mr. Jackson,'' the lawyer concluded.

June 18th, 2006. #MichaelJackson took his children to Disneyland Paris. France.
"My first time at Disney with Michael Jackson and his kids"
Michael Jackson's children's tutor Aileen Patrick Bradley Medalla recalls what a 'normal day' in the King of Pop's life was like.
''A warning came early in the morning that we were going from Versailles to Disneyland Paris . Obviously, I was very happy because it would be my first Disney adventure .
I believe I was happier than the kids.
When we got there, I was surprised to see a bunch of fans screaming Michael Jackson's name. "How do they know we're here?" I wondered.
This totally stunned me.
Later that day, I asked Ms. Grace [ MJ's kids' nanny ] if I could see the park. “Go ahead, enjoy ,” she said.
The next day, I was informed that we were going to the park, along with Mr. Jackson and the kids. I was excited and didn't know what it would be like to hang out with them. It was my first public commitment to the family. We went through the entrance gate, but security led us back to the gate.
When we arrived at the park, people started screaming and running towards us. Mr. Jackson waved his hand and said “I love you” to them. Security was already on high alert, trying to protect Mr. Jackson and the group.
When the crowd became uncontrollable, we entered the nearest store. Security was forced to lock the place to prevent them from entering. We stayed inside the store for a while. The fans kept screaming and waited patiently outside. I was instructed to keep an eye on the children at all times.
When we left, the crowd descended on us. Security had to get the kids away from Mr. Jackson to protect them from being hurt. I was amazed at what had happened.
He found that one of the children injured his arm, but he didn't complain. After a while, we continued through the park as planned.
I felt my excitement disappear as we went to Space Mountain , a roller coaster-type steel roller. I just hate roller coasters!
Prince: “Miss. let's go!"
Me: “You can go without me, Prince. Have a good time. I'll be here waiting, ok?''
Prince: "Are you sure?"
Me: “Of course.''
Prince: “Okay. We will be back soon.''
I sighed in relief.
Then they went with the security guards and climbed onto the sidewalk. So I stayed in the waiting room until they got back. After an afternoon full of fun, excitement and excitement, we were escorted back to our hotel.
Back then, I didn't understand why people went crazy chasing him and were willing to invest a huge amount of money on airfare at hotels, to catch a glimpse of Mr. Jackson.
Funny that I never understood why people who came to your show cried and passed out. The person who could catch the attention of millions of people around the world was simply fantastic.
He was like a magnet, attracting audiences wherever he went. He was amazing!
It wasn't until I got to know his true character and who he really was that I understood people's fascination with him. More than his exceptional and incomparable talent, his pure heart made the people love him immensely.
It's true that I've read some of these offensive rumors about him, but I've never questioned his morality—not even once.
I have been a living witness to Mr. Jackson's inherent goodness and decency. These horrible tabloid rumors were far from the real person he really was. It made me wonder sometimes… where the hell did they get those stories?
It's funny that people who haven't had the opportunity to be with him have a lot to say.”

Sean Lennon spent a lot of time with Jackson when he was about 8-15 years old.
Sean Lennon is the son of John Lennon. Sean Lennon lost his father when he was just five years old. As we all know, John Lennon was murdered in 1980. His son became a close friend of Jackson in 1983, at age eight, as he explains in his song Bubbles Burst. After their first date, Michael decided he needed to take care of the boy. He said he feels sorry for his son not having a father and that he could be a father figure to him.

Look at his testimony, talking about michael jackson: “It's funny, people who think Michael is a cheater assume whenever he bribed the families of the kids he molested. You hear it all the time. I wrote out millions of dollar checks to all the kids who threatened to come forward. But look at me. I was one of the kids who became friends with him as a young man. Maybe I almost spent more time with him than anyone else. I saw them all. the kind of people who publicly speculate that he abused me. But I think my family is actually richer than he is. So it would be a big ruse to buy me and my mom. It's ridiculous. No way Mike he's an abuser. Trust me. I knew the kids he knew. I'd know if something weird was going on. It wasn't just boys, there were girls there too, not just the sisters."

''I nearly had cardiac arrest during the show at Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Celebration.'' (Slash)
Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash played with Michael on Dangerous and HIStory. In an interview with Vibe Magazine (July 1995), he stated:
'Michael is a brilliant, completely natural entertainer. He's the only guy I've ever met who's really made for this kind of music. I grew up listening to the Jackson Five. I loved Dancing Machine. We were friends for a while, so he lets me do what I want to do.
Immagine
I get a basic structure, and I do my part and they edit it. Sometimes I wonder what it's going to sound like [laughs], but every time, they do a great job. He is very cunning. He has a great sense of humor, and people always ask me, "Is he weird?" Well, he's different. But I know what it's like to be weird, growing up in the music business. I have to admit, working with Michael Jackson is different from working with the band, their basic rock. Once, when I went to play for Michael, he came in with Brooke Shields, and there I am with a cigarette in one hand, a bottle of Jack Daniel in the other, and my guitar hanging low around my neck. And he doesn't care. That's not the way he is, but I don't have to change for him. He accepts me as I am.'
The first date
'I was staying at the Hyatt Hotel on Sunset Boulevard when I got a call from the Guns N' Roses office: 'Hey Slasher, Michael Jackson is trying to get in touch with you. He wants you to play on his next recordings.'... 'Oh wow!' I said...'Ok'. The next call was from Michael himself: 'Hello Slash', in his typically nervous, shy voice, and off we went. I was flattered and I was intimidated, but the sessions went really well. We did two songs, the coolest one was Give In To Me, which was like a new take on the song Dirty Diana.
Immagine
Michael then told me: 'I really want to say thanks for being on my album. Can't wait to hear the final result. A few days later Slash returned to recording a solo for the Black or White video, in the scene where Macaulay Culkin appears. But he disproves the myth of having recorded this same song for the album. Later, Slash filmed the live video of Give In To Me, with Jackson, at a concert in Munich.
Michael Jackson: 30th Anniversary Celebration
Michael invited Slash to participate in concerts celebrating the 30th anniversary of his solo career, which took place in September 2001 at Madison Square Garden in New York.
Immagine
"I'm so excited to get back to working with my dear friend Slash again. He's a brilliant guitarist who I really admire and I look forward to having Slash play with me on these two special nights," stated Michael.
Slash, for his part, returned the attention, declaring that he couldn't wait to take the stage. "He's one of the greatest talents known. Michael is timeless, classic and prominent."
Slash later revealed that it was his first concert after a delicate heart surgery:
'Years of drinking had swelled my heart to the point of bursting. It got to the point where doctors gave me six days to six weeks to live. After the operation I started therapy and miraculously my heart started to heal.
I was out of circulation for four months before picking up a guitar again. It was the darkest period of my life, but in 2001 I agreed to play at Michael's birthday celebration.
Slash rehearsed two days for the September show...
'On the day of the big show, everyone was celebrating, and I did my best to stay away from alcohol. Once I got up on stage, my heart rate soared. A shock hit my chest, and my vision was flooded with electric blue light.
This happened about four times during each song, and I had no idea what was going on. I thought there was a short circuit in a guitar cable or it was the effect of some photographer's flash. Every time that happened, I had to stand there and make it look like everything was normal. I saw it later on TV and you couldn't imagine what happened to me at that moment. It was extremely disconcerting until I found out what it was.'
The desire to return to work with Michael
Slash revealed to the American
website Aceshowbiz that he was about to invite Michael Jackson to participate in his first solo album, when June 25, 2009 arrived. When he started planning this work, the musician imagined including the singer in a very close context. of rock.
'But when I heard that Michael was rehearsing for the shows he would do in London, I figured he wouldn't have time, and I didn't even call to try to arrange something. It's hard to believe that he is no longer with us.'
Slash also expressed outrage at the way Michael Jackson was treated by the media:
'For eight or nine years Michael Jackson was practically massacred by the media. I believe he was innocent of child molestation charges. Then, when he dies, you see people crying in the street. That sucks!" Source: @michaeljackson

Bob Sanger, Michael’s long time attorney, states that he believes the (false) allegations against him should be a footnote in his history, and that he was a good, kind person who did a tremendous amount of good in the world.

An Open Letter
From the Schleiter Family
Hi, we are Franziska, Anton, Marlies and Wolfgang – brother and sister and our parents. We were close friends with Michael Jackson from childhood on. What we are about to say comes out of a place of great love and appreciation. If you would like to quote this text, please do not take it out of context and always link back to this page. We won‘t be giving any interviews to the press. Thank you for understanding. This is all we have to say:


04.03.2019

Enough is Enough.
In 1995 we first met Michael at a German TV Show. That day, something that we could never have imagined in our wildest dreams happened. It was the start of a unique friendship. A friendship so normal yet so unusual and magical. One that would last until the very last day of Michael‘s life and will continue forever in our hearts.

From the beginning we knew that what we were privileged to experience, was a treasure worth protecting. Especially regarding the world we live in, with media that wants to make up stories that sell, rather than seeking the truth and people who want to read shocking headlines rather than knowing the truth. Over the years we were offered over a quarter million of Euros for interviews, but no money in the world could ever materialize a value that would stand above the value of our memories with Michael. This is the reason why we have never spoken a word publicly about our friendship.

Something has changed our mind about speaking up lately. The utter shocking news of a new documentary that would portray Michael once again as a child molester. Even writing this sentence, putting his name and that word together, makes us feel sick to our stomach. Michael never behaved inappropriately towards us and we neither witnessed nor suspected him doing it to someone else ever.

We have been angry with the public treatment of Michael many times in the past, but we chose to stay silent - hoping the truth to run marathons and protecting Michael and his privacy.

And we had good reason to be angry, for example when Anton was falsely portrayed in a German tabloid as having a homosexual affair with Michael. We witnessed first hand how ugly the media can be and how they make up most terrible lies just to have a story. When our father denied to talk to an inquiring journalist on the phone, the story read something like "Father refuses to defend Michael". Unfortunately scandals sell much better than anything else.

Spending a lot of time with Michael, we experienced two-faced people more than once. When Michael was in the room, they acted most charming with seemingly good intentions, but once he turned his cheek they would become rude and you could sense that their intentions were not that good after all. In front of us, they didn‘t care showing their real face. We were only the shy German family in the background, not worth paying attention to. But we were observing and slowly but surely we started to get a glance at the often difficult world Michael was living in. It was a world in which it was so very difficult to trust.

And yet Michael was kind to everybody he would meet and believed in the good so strongly. Some would call it naiv, to us it was just one of his character traits that made us look up to him. Giving everybody a chance, even if you've been fooled by people over and over, really is remarkable. And it makes us even more sad to know, that many took and still take advantage of this.

Being around Michael made us realize that everybody wanted a piece of him. We often wondered why, from all people, he would let us into his circle of trusted friends. Now we understand it was maybe the fact that we didn't want anything from him and simply enjoyed being together. When he offered to pay for our education, our parents denied because it was too much of a gift. It was a no brainer for us then, but looking back on it now, it was probably something that Michael didn't experience often.

Those who wanted a piece of his fame or his money did not care about Michael as a person or about his kind heart and uplifting spirit. It is truly a shame and we almost feel bad for those people in a way, because blinded by money, they probably didn't realize that they just had the honor to meet a person that has a uniqueness about him that the world would only witness every other century. His music, his message, his creative and genius mind was truly one of a kind.

While our friendship with Michael was very normal in a sense that we hung out, chatted on the phone, went to the movies just like friends do, it was also magical in the sense that Michael had a warmth about him that was captivating. You would immediately feel comfortable and safe around him. He was one of the most humble persons we've ever met, always putting the well being of others over his own. There was never a single moment of doubt of his pure heart and intentions, which also led our parents to allow us to travel alone with Michael.

Though we‘re speaking up today, we still want to protect and respect our personal stories. What we can say though, is that each and every time we had to say good bye to Michael, we all cried because we knew how much we would miss him. The times we spent together were the most fun. And while Michael was always up for a good water balloon fight, he was also a great mentor, teaching us about life and sharing his incredible knowledge. We can remember how excited he was to tell us about the Wright brothers when he learnt that we had never heard of them. He gave us books and movies of stories we could learn from and he was eager for us to develop our talents.

We understand that our story can only put a small piece of the puzzle together for those who are still in doubt of what to believe about Michael Jackson. To those who still doubt that he was innocent, we can only plea to simply do your own research. And if the fact that Michael had to endure every possible raid of privacy in his trial in 2005 and still was found NOT GUILTY on ALL CHARGES, if this fact is still not enough for you, then maybe you can simply listen to his music.

Meeting many of his fans over the years, we were astounded how much they “got him“ as a person, even though they never personally met him. Michael and his fans had a unique friendship of their own. He trusted them and it is no wonder why they continue to trust in his good heart. They simply listened to his music and to his words. If you listen closely you‘d know all of his stories and you‘d know what kind of person he was. You would know that his mission for his time on earth was not only to bring happiness in form of melodies and rhythm but also to change the world to the better.

Boy, how he could inspire us to be our best selves and to show more love and respect to each other! Yet people choose to blow up lies that threaten to overshadow all of the greatness this man has brought.

Enough is enough.

Today we speak up for Michael because he deserves better and because he was the best friend we could have ever imagined.

''I met Michael when I was in Detroit. He came to Motown , and they were talking about this kid from Gary, Indiana, and the Jackson 5 , and everyone was excited. He was a little boy then.
He always came to the studio, curious about how I worked and what I did: "How do you do that?" "Why did you do that?" I think he clearly understood a lot of things from seeing other artists working.
He was 9 or 10 years old at this time, and I definitely felt like he would be someone. You heard your voice, and realized your potential for growth. And that's what he did.
I remember playing air hockey for a while, and we were going back and forth. I play air hockey on the side as opposed to the end of the table because it's more accessible for me to really understand what's going on.
He said, "Oh, you're cheating." And I said, "Oh, I'm not cheating, come on." And we stayed like that for hours, just playing and playing like fools.
Michael was a natural. Very hardworking and a super performer . But most of all, he was a real human being. Michael had a child's heart. And it was very, very impressive to me.
At the end of the day, we're all human beings, and for those who can't see that it's possible for a man who is an adult to have a childlike spirit, that doesn't mean they're weird, doesn't mean they're a freak or the whatever ridiculous things people say.
We have all kinds of people in the world. The most important thing is that your heart is in a good place''.
Stevie Wonder

Dianne Sawyer is just plain rude here but Lisa Marie is sticking by her guns in saying how in love and how attracted she was to MJ.

I was a boy in Michael Jackson’s life, and nothing of what he’s being accused of happened…
I was part of Michael’s life from the day I was born in 1987 until 2001. The last time I was literally close to him was backstage at the Staples Center when his casket wheeled past me. I knew him well because my mother, Janet Zeitoun, his sole hairstylist during the time, knew him even better.
From the 80s, 90s and early 2000s, my mother has been around the globe with Michael. She’s been by his side doing his hair on sets, in dressing rooms, backstage at his concerts, at his home, on planes, in hotel rooms, in cars, and yes, even at Neverland. When my mom was pregnant with me in ’86, Michael told her that she’d be having a boy; and on the day of my birth, Michael sent a limo to our home filled with gifts. And from then on, my single, hard-working mother who wanted to spend as much time with me as she could often brought me to work with her. So I grew up on the sets of Michael’s music videos, I played with my toys on the floor of his dressing rooms, and he sometimes came over to our house to get his hair done. As I got a bit older and could walk on my own two feet, I became the boy responsible for making sure Michael got candy in between some of his concert rehearsal sets. Michael would make everyone stop and patiently wait for me to wobble my way on stage to him.
I went to Neverland, several times of which Michael was there and he gave us the full tour of his home. I remember my favorite golf cart to get around had a Peter Pan emblem on it. I remember his movie theater concession stand being filled with candy that you could go behind the counter and take to watch whatever movie you wanted. I remember riding the big steam engine train that would take you from one end of the ranch to the other. I remember a big pot-bellied pig named Petunia and that I could name a newborn deer and rabbit. I chose Cuddie and Thumper, respectively; original, I know, but Michael loved the names.
I remember leaving Neverland a happy kid who couldn’t wait to go back. I remember telling my mom that I wanted to have another birthday party there or that I wanted to hang out with Michael again at the ranch. The bulk of my experience with Michael was during the 90s right when the FBI investigation began on account of child molestation allegations. Knowing that this was happening and that these charges were set against him, I don’t think my protective and well-aware mother would’ve allowed me to continue hanging around Michael or head up to Neverland had she not trusted him.
Michael signed a letter to me on Neverland letterhead once. It read: “from your protective and older brother, Michael Jackson.” Now I find it my turn to protect him by telling my story because I solemnly swear that this kind-hearted, genius-of-a-man is innocent. I probably would have known otherwise.

Young & Restless’ Bryton James Sheds Light on the Michael Jackson *He* Knew

Immagine

Last week, The Young and the Restless’ Bryton James (Devon) was a guest on State of Mind, the podcast hosted by General Hospital leading man Maurice Benard (Sonny). They talked about everything from the CBS actor’s last day with Kristoff St. John (ex-Neil) and his past divorce to his friendship with the late Michael Jackson.

James’ dad was a musician, a self-taught guitar player and a staff writer for country superstar Kenny Rogers in the ’80s. He shared a funny story that his dad used to tell about a time when he was in the studio recording a big session with a client and heard a bunch of people outside the door making some noise. His dad opened the door and said, “‘Hey, will you shut up?’ and he said Michael Jackson peeked his head around and said, ‘I’m so sorry.’”

“Let’s talk about Michael,” Benard began, then recalled a commercial that James did with the King of Pop. When James was 2 and a half, he went to a print job for LA Gear. Jackson “had his own shoes at the time,” James explained, but he didn’t get to meet him then. Taking Benard back in time to when he first was introduced to music, he shared, “It was all rock. And then it was right before or around 2 years old I discovered Michael Jackson. I thought I was Michael… If someone would talk to me long enough, I would start singing and dancing.”

Then it all began… A woman that started working on his show Family Matters, when James was about 5 or 6, happened to be a receptionist for Jackson’s production company and delivered a letter from him to his idol — and Jackson wrote a letter back.

A year later, along with Raven-Symoné, James was asked present Jackson with an NAACP Award. He and his dad got to go backstage, where James met a couple of Jackson’s cousins, who to this day are like brothers to him. Jackson invited James’ family to the ranch. “From that time on, he would just stay in contact with me. I know his goal was to make sure that I was having a good time and having fun being a child in the entertainment industry.” James stressed how important that was to Jackson because he didn’t have that.

He remembered witnessing how impossible it was for Jackson “to have a normal life” and explained that the singer enjoyed being around children because they treated him normally unlike some adults that weren’t authentic with him. “Even the biggest-named celebrities I’ve seen around him… ” he went on. “They could be one way in front of him and a different way, you know, because there’s no one bigger than him.” Whereas when a kid asked, “‘What’s wrong with your nose, it looks funny.’ To him… he liked that. Kids are innocent and they’re real, they’re honest… and these are the only people in his life that would be like that with him.”

Benard realized and stated, “And if he slept in a bed with a child, it’s normal to him because he’s a child,” to which James agreed and shared that Jackson’s room was two stories tall. “It was never just you and him… there were also people there. The first time we stayed at the ranch with my dad, he invited me and my dad… ‘Stay in the room with all of us.’ His cousins were there.”

Wrapping up their talk, James touched base on the controversy surrounding the superstar. “I knew two of the kids who made claims about him, and then it’s come out publicly that they were told, forced to lie by their parents. It’s been tough to sit and watch.”

We invite fans to view the full segment from his interview.

I mean. Even if we ignore that Michael Jackson was innocent in a court of law on 14 counts (including 4 misdemeanors) one month early: I did a 3-part series, representing over an hour of countervailing evidence.
You could try refuting it.
If you knew how.
