Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:04,620 --> 00:00:09,600
There's nothing pure and nothing more
spiritual to me than children.
2
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:15,340
I think it's the most golden thing we
have.
3
00:00:19,080 --> 00:00:23,260
I can be myself and jump into their
magical world.
4
00:00:39,790 --> 00:00:44,830
you told me right now that, Michael, you
could never see another child, I would
5
00:00:44,830 --> 00:00:45,830
kill myself.
6
00:00:48,170 --> 00:00:50,270
And I swear to you, I would do it.
7
00:00:51,450 --> 00:00:53,810
Because I have nothing else to live for.
8
00:00:57,630 --> 00:00:59,530
See the way I feel about Gavin?
9
00:01:00,110 --> 00:01:02,390
I'll multiply that millions of times
over.
10
00:01:03,490 --> 00:01:06,530
And that's why I know this magic of love
is so important.
11
00:01:07,150 --> 00:01:08,970
He is such a beautiful child.
12
00:01:09,960 --> 00:01:11,960
I told him, I said, you look just like
an angel.
13
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:19,220
Michael said, Gavin, when you get out of
the hospital, you come to Neverland
14
00:01:19,220 --> 00:01:21,180
Ranch and I will heal you.
15
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,300
And then the Martin Brashear documentary
caused a worldwide commotion.
16
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:31,240
And then he finally said, okay, if you
love me, you can sleep on the bed.
17
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:32,900
I was like, oh, man.
18
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,800
And so I finally slept on the bed.
19
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:38,060
You've got to give the devil his due.
20
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,940
Martin Bashir did an incredible job.
21
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:43,600
Did that lead to the trial?
22
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:45,200
You bet.
23
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:00,180
People just can't stop talking about the
interview with Michael Jackson, a
24
00:02:00,180 --> 00:02:02,840
British documentary which aired in the
US last night.
25
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:08,520
The man is 44 years old. What in the
hell is he doing sleeping in the bed
26
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,759
kids who are not his, who are not
related?
27
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:13,700
The Martin Bashir documentary drops.
28
00:02:14,700 --> 00:02:18,420
And it's like the pedophile herd around
the world.
29
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,560
For Michael Jackson, this was a nuclear
bomb.
30
00:02:23,380 --> 00:02:24,580
Why can't you share your bed?
31
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,820
The most loving thing to do is to share
your bed with someone.
32
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,860
You really think that? Yeah.
33
00:02:32,590 --> 00:02:36,270
The media painted Michael to be a child
molester, and they replayed that Bashir
34
00:02:36,270 --> 00:02:38,690
clip probably one billion times.
35
00:02:39,390 --> 00:02:42,370
Why are you holding the hand of a 13
-year -old kid?
36
00:02:42,730 --> 00:02:46,170
You know that if it were any of us and
we were engaging in that kind of
37
00:02:46,170 --> 00:02:49,070
behavior, the cops would be all over us.
They're not going to investigate.
38
00:02:49,510 --> 00:02:53,810
You would be cringing if your client got
on national TV and said worse than the
39
00:02:53,810 --> 00:02:56,210
fact that he'd hosted sleepover parties
for small boys.
40
00:02:56,690 --> 00:03:00,970
The media certainly felt that Michael
was fair game to go after anything and
41
00:03:00,970 --> 00:03:02,050
everything. He hated it.
42
00:03:04,010 --> 00:03:05,890
The press, they wait with knives.
43
00:03:07,270 --> 00:03:08,770
Because I was the pioneer.
44
00:03:09,570 --> 00:03:11,410
And that's why they start the stories.
45
00:03:11,650 --> 00:03:13,170
He's weird, he's gay.
46
00:03:14,070 --> 00:03:17,370
Anything to turn people against me, they
try their hardest.
47
00:03:18,790 --> 00:03:23,470
It's a frenzy. My phone doesn't stop
ringing with press people. They want to
48
00:03:23,470 --> 00:03:25,830
talk. You know, everybody wants to get a
story going.
49
00:03:26,390 --> 00:03:31,210
I even get a phone call from a tabloid
offering me an incredible amount of
50
00:03:31,210 --> 00:03:32,210
just to talk dirt.
51
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,060
It's a PR meltdown.
52
00:03:34,500 --> 00:03:38,280
There is tremendous pressure to get it
all under control.
53
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,760
Michael, great entertainer, big
celebrity status.
54
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:52,520
But he has a habit of tripping.
55
00:03:53,780 --> 00:03:59,800
So when this Bashir interview was
released in the United States, I get a
56
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:00,800
from my friend Frank.
57
00:04:01,210 --> 00:04:02,930
who's Michael Jackson's ER manager.
58
00:04:03,430 --> 00:04:05,710
He's like, come out to L .A.
59
00:04:06,430 --> 00:04:10,590
and come out working this damage
control, which is occurring right now.
60
00:04:13,610 --> 00:04:18,690
Frank was very close to Michael. I asked
him, you know, before I leave and I
61
00:04:18,690 --> 00:04:22,150
take this job, has Michael ever harmed a
child?
62
00:04:22,450 --> 00:04:23,990
And he says, Vin, you know me.
63
00:04:24,490 --> 00:04:26,890
I am the closest person to him.
64
00:04:27,430 --> 00:04:29,610
And he said, never would happen.
65
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:34,220
So I trusted Frank, and I made a
decision to take the job.
66
00:04:38,100 --> 00:04:42,960
The best thing that we could do to
defend Michael Jackson was to film our
67
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:48,680
documentary to get a really good
rebuttal to who Michael was and that
68
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:49,559
good person.
69
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:55,000
Michael Jackson Take Two is going to air
on Fox February 20th. So then what do
70
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,660
you think about Michael's version of
this show that's going to come out?
71
00:04:57,700 --> 00:04:58,700
Positive spin!
72
00:04:59,020 --> 00:05:02,800
I mean, it'll help him. It'll help him,
but he said what he said.
73
00:05:03,140 --> 00:05:06,900
For about a week to a week and a half, I
was trying to line up all the press
74
00:05:06,900 --> 00:05:07,900
around the documentary.
75
00:05:08,780 --> 00:05:15,100
The participation of the boy in the
documentary, Gavin Aviso, is a key
76
00:05:15,100 --> 00:05:16,700
in how it's all going to work.
77
00:05:17,780 --> 00:05:21,840
So the idea is we're going to capture an
interview with the Aviso family.
78
00:05:22,380 --> 00:05:27,140
to show that there hadn't been improper
contact or conduct between Michael
79
00:05:27,140 --> 00:05:28,340
Jackson and Gavin.
80
00:05:28,680 --> 00:05:34,540
It was essentially to get this interview
done before the tabloids get a hold of
81
00:05:34,540 --> 00:05:35,540
this family.
82
00:05:44,580 --> 00:05:48,440
My first task dealing with the Arvizo
family was...
83
00:05:48,780 --> 00:05:53,560
to go pick up the mother, Janet Arvizo,
and bring her to Michael's videographer.
84
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,020
She was very upset.
85
00:05:56,700 --> 00:06:01,540
She was complaining about the family and
all their dreams are shattered now
86
00:06:01,540 --> 00:06:02,540
because of this.
87
00:06:05,840 --> 00:06:08,140
We started pretty late in the evening.
88
00:06:09,020 --> 00:06:13,200
I talked the family through what we're
going to be talking about, basically
89
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,820
giving them a rundown that this is a
total fluff interview, but we want you
90
00:06:16,820 --> 00:06:17,820
be honest.
91
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:36,780
The family is supposedly totally on
board, but the mom won't start the
92
00:06:36,780 --> 00:06:42,280
because I need signed model releases
before we can do the interview.
93
00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:46,840
But she didn't want to sign the model
releases.
94
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,340
Why don't you sign a model release?
95
00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:56,840
Money. All right. So is she worried that
she's not going to get a piece of this
96
00:06:56,840 --> 00:06:58,100
if we sell this footage?
97
00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:00,940
And then suddenly she's on the phone
with lawyers.
98
00:07:01,400 --> 00:07:08,180
At some point, someone tells Janet that
it's okay for us to sign the model
99
00:07:08,180 --> 00:07:10,560
releases and to film the interview.
100
00:07:11,380 --> 00:07:17,600
Wait, wait. You know how Bashir... Hey,
you know how Bashir zoomed in on him
101
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:18,720
holding hands?
102
00:07:18,940 --> 00:07:23,700
Do that, the same thing. Because, you
know... Because that's what a mother...
103
00:07:23,980 --> 00:07:25,560
Like you know how a father does.
104
00:07:25,780 --> 00:07:29,680
Or a father does with his son, you know?
And they try to make it out to be
105
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,940
something wrong and dirty.
106
00:07:32,300 --> 00:07:33,820
So you can have that.
107
00:07:34,180 --> 00:07:39,300
When I first met Michael, all I thought
was he was a loving, kind, humble man.
108
00:07:39,740 --> 00:07:42,340
And all he wanted to do was good.
109
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,940
As I'm doing an interview, I really do
feel like Gavin is very sincere.
110
00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,600
He treats me like he's my father.
111
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:54,640
He gives young advice.
112
00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:01,180
Michael is exactly an unanswered prayer
to my children and me.
113
00:08:01,700 --> 00:08:05,420
Michael is there for us, there for all
three of them.
114
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:07,720
Janet's just over the top.
115
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,180
I dislike her immediately.
116
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,960
Every door closed on us, and Michael
said, all my doors are open.
117
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,260
My home is your home and your children.
118
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,080
I am like their father.
119
00:08:24,620 --> 00:08:30,520
And his interactions with my children
were all innocent as a father interacts
120
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:31,560
with their children.
121
00:08:32,380 --> 00:08:38,380
Where she really loses my credibility is
just how she suddenly adopted this idea
122
00:08:38,380 --> 00:08:40,780
that Michael is their real father.
123
00:08:41,100 --> 00:08:47,080
Either this mom is completely in love
with Michael Jackson or
124
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:51,300
she's driven by the world of Michael
Jackson possibilities.
125
00:08:52,170 --> 00:08:58,690
It disturbed me greatly when I saw them
and the innuendos he was making. They
126
00:08:58,690 --> 00:09:05,290
took a beautiful relationship that he
has with Gavin and spun it out of
127
00:09:06,010 --> 00:09:07,630
We completed the interview.
128
00:09:08,090 --> 00:09:12,010
But then the director of photography
would not give me the footage.
129
00:09:13,390 --> 00:09:18,330
This interview was obviously very
important, and he wanted Michael to pay
130
00:09:19,670 --> 00:09:22,630
So, unfortunately, it never went into
the box special.
131
00:09:23,830 --> 00:09:28,370
It wasn't a good situation with tabloids
hovering around everybody at the time.
132
00:09:28,730 --> 00:09:31,750
I had a strong feeling that I didn't
trust Janet.
133
00:09:31,990 --> 00:09:37,150
So I am absolutely worried that this is
the type of person who might take money
134
00:09:37,150 --> 00:09:41,650
to say Michael Jackson blessed my kid.
Because there's a lot of money in that.
135
00:09:58,499 --> 00:10:04,080
friends and the friends that are family
to me are because they have exhibited
136
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,700
honesty, trustworthiness, love.
137
00:10:08,060 --> 00:10:11,440
This video, I've never seen it. I don't
know how you guys got all this.
138
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:19,760
And that is why we are very thankful and
appreciate that Michael calls us family
139
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:24,620
because he exhibits all that and he
gives these boys much direction
140
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:35,340
So what you're seeing in Janet here, she
just truly wants this all to be true.
141
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,700
Because this is just a godsend that
there would be a male influence in her
142
00:10:40,700 --> 00:10:42,380
children's life who was kind and caring.
143
00:10:43,100 --> 00:10:46,780
She says things very dramatically, but
Janet really feels what she's saying.
144
00:10:46,980 --> 00:10:49,360
I know her. That's what she feels.
145
00:10:49,740 --> 00:10:52,480
You know, she had been going through a
lot of stuff.
146
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:54,000
She was getting a divorce.
147
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,420
Gavin's father had been abusive to her
and the kids.
148
00:10:58,580 --> 00:11:04,420
So at this point, the idea that somebody
this important would value her children
149
00:11:04,420 --> 00:11:09,360
and parent them, that was meaningful to
her, like extraordinarily meaningful to
150
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:10,360
her at the time.
151
00:11:11,140 --> 00:11:12,280
She craved it.
152
00:11:17,220 --> 00:11:22,600
After the Martin Bashir documentary
aired, I became concerned. I start
153
00:11:23,290 --> 00:11:24,290
Their numbers are disconnected.
154
00:11:24,890 --> 00:11:26,230
I didn't know where she was.
155
00:11:27,510 --> 00:11:31,210
Clearly, they were at the center of a
hurricane.
156
00:11:32,050 --> 00:11:37,630
Anybody that had any kind of show would
have wanted to talk to this family.
157
00:11:38,790 --> 00:11:42,210
Michael Jackson's team would have wanted
to keep them contained.
158
00:11:49,060 --> 00:11:53,460
Okay, everybody, that two -hour
documentary on living with Michael
159
00:11:53,460 --> 00:11:56,980
still making news. Michael Jackson's
image has taken a brutal beating over
160
00:11:56,980 --> 00:11:57,980
past few months, as you know.
161
00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:08,520
Among the madness of this year,
162
00:12:08,780 --> 00:12:12,260
I get a phone call, hey, we're going to
go to Gary, Indiana and visit Michael's
163
00:12:12,260 --> 00:12:13,099
child at home.
164
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:14,100
Any kind of distraction.
165
00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,880
Give them some new Michael Jackson stuff
that was positive.
166
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,500
I would like to officially, on behalf of
the men and the women and the young
167
00:12:23,500 --> 00:12:28,020
people of the city of Gary, welcome back
home, Mr. Michael Jackson.
168
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,140
I am the biggest fan. Well, probably not
the biggest because there's a lot of
169
00:12:32,140 --> 00:12:36,720
them here, but I just love Michael
Jackson. Just his persona. He loves
170
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,380
In a good way, he loves children.
171
00:12:40,540 --> 00:12:41,940
He's a role model.
172
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,820
I love him. I originally thought we were
going because he wanted to visit.
173
00:12:47,690 --> 00:12:54,630
It's hometown, but as it turns out, it
was to capture footage of Michael's
174
00:12:54,630 --> 00:12:59,050
humble beginnings, because that was what
the narrative was going to be. It was
175
00:12:59,050 --> 00:13:04,410
going to be the sickly, sweet, you know,
here comes the king, you know, like
176
00:13:04,410 --> 00:13:05,410
wah, wah.
177
00:13:05,870 --> 00:13:09,910
The management of Michael's image,
that's the number one thing.
178
00:13:11,130 --> 00:13:15,590
When you saw Michael's childhood home,
it was pretty rough.
179
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:21,360
We're talking a small two -room home
where 10 or 11 people lived.
180
00:13:22,260 --> 00:13:26,060
Michael grew up in abject poverty,
certainly in an age of discrimination.
181
00:13:27,160 --> 00:13:31,380
Opportunities for black men and black
families especially were very limited.
182
00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:35,480
But the one thing that really affected
him was his relationship with his
183
00:13:37,300 --> 00:13:44,180
Father, he did some rough, cruel... The
way he would beat you, he would make you
184
00:13:44,180 --> 00:13:45,460
strip nude first.
185
00:13:46,190 --> 00:13:52,930
So when the foot of the ironing cord hit
you, it would just, you know, fall on
186
00:13:52,930 --> 00:13:54,530
your face, your back, everywhere.
187
00:13:55,790 --> 00:13:59,550
He would tell us, don't call me dad, I'm
Joseph.
188
00:14:01,410 --> 00:14:03,510
I never felt love from him.
189
00:14:04,530 --> 00:14:08,070
All I want is his love, his approval.
190
00:14:09,350 --> 00:14:13,510
I think the broken relationship between
father and son was monumental.
191
00:14:15,690 --> 00:14:19,190
There were really like two Michael
Jackson. One needed love and validation.
192
00:14:19,430 --> 00:14:21,550
The other needed attention and
celebrity.
193
00:14:23,030 --> 00:14:26,270
I proudly present to you Mr. Michael
Jackson.
194
00:14:28,570 --> 00:14:30,990
Everything is already geared up like a
machine.
195
00:14:31,350 --> 00:14:32,350
All this love.
196
00:14:33,510 --> 00:14:38,130
It's all orchestrated to get support
from the fans, you know, because they
197
00:14:38,130 --> 00:14:39,790
defend him no matter what.
198
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:45,460
The Gary Community School Corporation
welcomes home the king of pop, Michael
199
00:14:45,460 --> 00:14:46,460
Jackson.
200
00:14:50,260 --> 00:14:53,040
The intrigue surrounding Michael
Jackson, it continues tonight.
201
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,140
Would you let your son or daughter stay
over at Neverland?
202
00:14:56,380 --> 00:14:59,980
No, and I can't understand why these
other boys' parents allowed them to
203
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,400
I believe that Child Welfare Services
should interview every child that has
204
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:07,180
at Neverland with Mr. Jackson in his
bedroom.
205
00:15:07,610 --> 00:15:10,250
The tabloids are still foaming at the
mouth.
206
00:15:11,550 --> 00:15:16,070
And there was a sense that you want to
keep Janet Arvizo, who seems like a bit
207
00:15:16,070 --> 00:15:22,010
of a live wire, as far away from
tabloids and people with checks as
208
00:15:25,710 --> 00:15:29,350
The Arvizo family is surrounded by
Handler.
209
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:36,500
They're getting carted around by people
inside the Jackson team, and there is a
210
00:15:36,500 --> 00:15:40,920
controlled element of making sure they
don't talk to people that they shouldn't
211
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:41,920
be talking to.
212
00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:52,500
I would bring Janet and the kids back
and forth between the Neverland Ranch
213
00:15:52,500 --> 00:15:53,500
L .A.
214
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:58,820
I was told to spend my time with
assisting Janet or Visa, whatever needed
215
00:15:58,820 --> 00:15:59,820
done.
216
00:16:04,940 --> 00:16:06,900
I drove her all over the place.
217
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:15,780
The obesos are okay with it at first,
but slowly they start to, you know,
218
00:16:15,780 --> 00:16:17,760
resentful of being controlled.
219
00:16:18,420 --> 00:16:21,880
No, no, no, you don't have to go get
your groceries. We'll do it with you.
220
00:16:25,140 --> 00:16:28,860
And then I was told that Vinny was going
to help them move.
221
00:16:31,300 --> 00:16:32,300
And I go, why?
222
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:34,400
Do they want to move?
223
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,420
Well, we need a better location.
224
00:16:36,780 --> 00:16:37,880
We? Who's we?
225
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,140
You know, so this is curious language.
226
00:16:43,060 --> 00:16:46,600
Our visa family, we're getting a lot of
pressure from the press.
227
00:16:48,460 --> 00:16:52,760
And there was a need for a place where
they can stay, where they can feel safe.
228
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,140
There was also a lot of talk about
taking the family on a vacation.
229
00:16:58,620 --> 00:17:00,980
Then he was running around getting
passport photos.
230
00:17:01,540 --> 00:17:04,040
And I thought that was probably a really
smart idea as well.
231
00:17:04,260 --> 00:17:10,839
And to make sure that this family is off
in Mars as far away from the press and
232
00:17:10,839 --> 00:17:11,900
the tabloids as possible.
233
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:23,420
I'm being asked, wouldn't you like to
let go to Brazil?
234
00:17:23,700 --> 00:17:24,700
I'm like, no.
235
00:17:25,310 --> 00:17:27,790
Why is the family being coaxed to go to
Brazil?
236
00:17:28,569 --> 00:17:33,290
There is this plan that's going on, but
who's the guy behind the curtain in The
237
00:17:33,290 --> 00:17:34,290
Wizard of Oz?
238
00:17:35,890 --> 00:17:37,730
Nothing's going to get done without
Michael's approval.
239
00:17:39,890 --> 00:17:41,150
He knows what's going on.
240
00:17:54,160 --> 00:18:00,040
One day, I get a frantic phone call from
Janet, who is being kept somewhere and
241
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,040
whispering.
242
00:18:01,820 --> 00:18:03,100
She was panicky.
243
00:18:03,380 --> 00:18:08,020
She wants me to come to where she is and
get her and the kids and bring them
244
00:18:08,020 --> 00:18:09,020
back to my house.
245
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:15,940
She sounded desperate, and I felt her
panic for her own children.
246
00:18:19,140 --> 00:18:22,060
She felt they were keeping her family at
Neverland.
247
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:27,080
and that they were going to send them to
Brazil and make the family disappear.
248
00:18:28,980 --> 00:18:35,460
And it's not like you can call the
police and say, you know, I think
249
00:18:35,460 --> 00:18:38,620
family being held against their will by
Michael Jackson.
250
00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,380
I don't know if that's a 911 call that's
going to be put through.
251
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:50,200
I had extended to her, you know, call me
in 24 hours, and then I would have.
252
00:18:51,950 --> 00:18:56,610
better resources in place, and she never
called.
253
00:19:07,630 --> 00:19:13,630
When I became involved with Janet and
her family, they were allowed to go
254
00:19:13,630 --> 00:19:15,590
anywhere they wanted, and I would take
them wherever they wanted.
255
00:19:18,050 --> 00:19:23,930
One day, she said, please bring my
children down to their grandparents'
256
00:19:24,110 --> 00:19:25,990
My mother is sick.
257
00:19:26,630 --> 00:19:28,130
I didn't think anything of it.
258
00:19:29,810 --> 00:19:32,670
After that day, we hadn't heard from
them.
259
00:19:34,190 --> 00:19:38,950
They were done with us, and we were
finished working with them, and that was
260
00:19:39,550 --> 00:19:43,910
They were going to leave any time, any
day.
261
00:19:51,790 --> 00:19:57,590
When I finally heard from Janet, she
told me about the danger that she felt
262
00:19:57,590 --> 00:20:01,750
had been visited upon her family.
263
00:20:02,150 --> 00:20:07,950
They had been kept at Neverland for
three weeks or so, and when Janet got
264
00:20:07,950 --> 00:20:11,050
kids home, they were not behaving
normally.
265
00:20:13,830 --> 00:20:15,850
Janet spoke to a lawyer.
266
00:20:16,250 --> 00:20:19,430
He heard enough and saw these boys and
thought,
267
00:20:20,169 --> 00:20:22,490
I don't like the way this is sounding at
all.
268
00:20:24,150 --> 00:20:26,990
I told Michael, don't work with kids,
work with their parents.
269
00:20:27,490 --> 00:20:29,130
It's their parents who are supposed to
be leading them.
270
00:20:29,410 --> 00:20:30,890
You're not the child's messiah.
271
00:20:32,730 --> 00:20:36,410
I always feel that I don't want the
parents to get jealous because it
272
00:20:36,410 --> 00:20:39,830
sometimes. And I always say, I'm not
trying to take your place.
273
00:20:40,310 --> 00:20:42,370
I'm just trying to help and I want to be
a friend.
274
00:20:42,950 --> 00:20:45,950
And the kids end up just falling in love
with my personality.
275
00:20:46,450 --> 00:20:48,010
Sometimes it gets me into trouble.
276
00:20:57,580 --> 00:21:02,660
In 2003, I was a senior prosecutor in
the district attorney's office.
277
00:21:03,300 --> 00:21:06,520
I was the supervisor of the vulnerable
victims unit.
278
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:12,960
One morning, I got called in by the
district attorney. He handed me a two
279
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:18,060
report, and I'm looking at it, and it
seems to be kind of the ordinary
280
00:21:18,060 --> 00:21:21,760
that you see in these investigations,
and I don't understand why I'm sitting
281
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,140
there looking at this thing. It's like
dozens of other cases I've looked at.
282
00:21:25,740 --> 00:21:30,500
And then I look at the top that has the
name. I never went to the name. And the
283
00:21:30,500 --> 00:21:31,820
name was Michael Joe Jackson.
284
00:21:33,060 --> 00:21:37,600
The sheriff's office in Santa Barbara
County had started an investigation into
285
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:39,380
allegations made by Gavin.
286
00:21:46,940 --> 00:21:48,360
You can sit right there, buddy.
287
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,860
Gavin, can you tell us what your
conversations, what you guys talked
288
00:21:57,420 --> 00:22:01,880
He says that, I know you're stressed out
about all this stuff that's going on,
289
00:22:01,980 --> 00:22:03,580
so I'll have something that will relax
you.
290
00:22:04,260 --> 00:22:06,080
He said, drink it. And I said, what's
that?
291
00:22:06,940 --> 00:22:11,660
And he said, it's drinking. So I drank
it.
292
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,280
I didn't like the taste.
293
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,540
And he asked me, what is it? And he
said, it's wine. It'll help you.
294
00:22:16,740 --> 00:22:18,920
Just keep drinking it. I kept on
drinking it.
295
00:22:20,980 --> 00:22:23,280
And my head started hurting and stuff.
296
00:22:23,700 --> 00:22:24,700
I fell.
297
00:22:25,550 --> 00:22:29,210
Gavin talking about alcohol use was a
grooming situation.
298
00:22:29,610 --> 00:22:36,590
In that interview, he exhibited to me
the typical, if you will,
299
00:22:36,710 --> 00:22:43,370
demeanor of somebody that's been abused.
You know, the shying away from the
300
00:22:43,370 --> 00:22:48,690
questions, not wanting to talk about
anything, keeping himself closed up
301
00:22:48,690 --> 00:22:49,690
the interview.
302
00:22:54,350 --> 00:22:55,030
He said
303
00:22:55,030 --> 00:23:02,230
that
304
00:23:02,230 --> 00:23:06,970
he wanted to show me how to masturbate.
He wanted to show you how to masturbate?
305
00:23:07,210 --> 00:23:08,470
Yeah. Okay.
306
00:23:08,790 --> 00:23:09,870
I said no.
307
00:23:12,510 --> 00:23:14,310
Then he said he'd do it for me.
308
00:23:14,670 --> 00:23:15,670
Okay.
309
00:23:17,570 --> 00:23:18,990
And did he do it for you?
310
00:23:30,540 --> 00:23:34,180
Did he put it on the outside?
311
00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:35,680
Inside?
312
00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:37,820
And what did he do next?
313
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:42,200
Okay.
314
00:23:46,360 --> 00:23:49,380
Did he stop?
315
00:23:56,720 --> 00:24:01,540
Having to publicly talk about sexual
abuse is not an easy thing.
316
00:24:01,940 --> 00:24:03,520
But he was courageous.
317
00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:08,000
I had complete faith in everything Gavin
was saying.
318
00:24:08,860 --> 00:24:15,560
And there was never a question in my
mind as to the honesty or accuracy of
319
00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:16,580
statement. Never.
320
00:24:17,360 --> 00:24:20,340
But I knew we were going after an
international superstar.
321
00:24:21,080 --> 00:24:22,800
And that changes the equation.
322
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:26,200
That was the part that was the unknown
for all of us.
323
00:24:36,110 --> 00:24:38,170
Is love and romance two different
things?
324
00:24:39,710 --> 00:24:41,870
I'm in love with innocence.
325
00:24:42,250 --> 00:24:43,410
That's what I'm in love with.
326
00:24:43,930 --> 00:24:45,730
And that's why I love children so much.
327
00:24:46,470 --> 00:24:49,350
I can relate to them easier, much
easier.
328
00:24:49,970 --> 00:24:56,510
See, just play, just love and innocence,
and to find true
329
00:24:56,510 --> 00:24:58,470
happiness and magic, you know?
330
00:25:10,670 --> 00:25:13,730
There are surprising developments at the
home of Michael Jackson.
331
00:25:14,230 --> 00:25:18,110
Authorities are serving a secret search
warrant at his ranch near Santa Barbara,
332
00:25:18,210 --> 00:25:22,390
California. Although there is no
official word as to the nature of the
333
00:25:22,490 --> 00:25:26,170
a number of news outlets are reporting
that the search is tied to allegations
334
00:25:26,170 --> 00:25:29,550
from a 12 -year -old boy that he was
molested by Jackson.
335
00:25:30,170 --> 00:25:36,330
I was watching CNN and I saw all of
these police entering the gates of
336
00:25:36,330 --> 00:25:40,250
Neverland. Investigators have swarmed
Jackson's Neverland Ranch.
337
00:25:40,610 --> 00:25:42,190
Target Neverland is underway.
338
00:25:42,670 --> 00:25:44,810
I picked up the phone and I called
Michael.
339
00:25:45,050 --> 00:25:46,350
He was in Las Vegas.
340
00:25:47,070 --> 00:25:52,490
And I said, Mr. Jackson, are you okay?
And he says, yeah, why?
341
00:25:52,730 --> 00:25:54,950
I said, they're raiding Neverland. He
says, what?
342
00:25:55,550 --> 00:25:59,350
I said, turn on CNN. You'll see it
there. It's live.
343
00:25:59,590 --> 00:26:01,330
They're raiding Neverland.
344
00:26:04,250 --> 00:26:05,790
Michael was really shocked.
345
00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:12,120
I had never seen anything like it. I
mean, the gate of Neverland is a good
346
00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:18,220
from the house. And here's this string
of cars. And to me, it's just abuse.
347
00:26:19,060 --> 00:26:20,060
It's harassment.
348
00:26:20,580 --> 00:26:25,640
The media has set up camp out here.
We're told as many as 60 investigators
349
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,560
inside at this point, searching the
ranch.
350
00:26:27,980 --> 00:26:29,760
It was a very large operation.
351
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,980
I was a newly promoted detective.
352
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:39,280
I was a big Michael Jackson fan as a
teenager.
353
00:26:40,740 --> 00:26:46,160
When Michael Jackson would come out to
perform, you can imagine teenage girls
354
00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,540
screaming at the top of their lungs.
355
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:49,420
That's what we were doing.
356
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:54,720
When I was told about the allegations
against Michael Jackson, I was kind of
357
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:55,720
surprised.
358
00:26:55,980 --> 00:27:00,620
I was assigned to search the main
residence.
359
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,920
How you doing?
360
00:27:04,250 --> 00:27:05,630
Sheriff's Department. We have a search
warrant.
361
00:27:09,930 --> 00:27:12,430
To me, Michael Jackson was just another
celebrity.
362
00:27:13,050 --> 00:27:16,490
When you're dealing with celebrities,
you have accusations that are made.
363
00:27:17,050 --> 00:27:21,210
And you have to take those accusations
with a grain of salt. You have to do
364
00:27:21,210 --> 00:27:22,210
investigation.
365
00:27:25,270 --> 00:27:28,190
Whose office is this?
366
00:27:29,210 --> 00:27:30,270
That's his office.
367
00:27:30,670 --> 00:27:31,710
This is Michael's?
368
00:27:32,150 --> 00:27:33,150
Okay.
369
00:27:33,420 --> 00:27:39,260
Does he have anything else? Michael
Jackson's mansion was like no other
370
00:27:39,260 --> 00:27:40,940
I've ever seen.
371
00:27:41,360 --> 00:27:45,520
There was just so much stuff everywhere.
372
00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:48,760
My
373
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:57,240
assignment
374
00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,820
was going to be going into Michael
Jackson's bedroom.
375
00:28:00,460 --> 00:28:04,440
Somebody said now he's moved upstairs
rather than down here. Gavin
376
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:11,140
had disclosed that there would be a
377
00:28:11,140 --> 00:28:18,080
briefcase with pornographic magazines
that were used by Michael to provoke
378
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:19,080
an arousal.
379
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,900
Those items we refer to as grooming
materials.
380
00:28:28,670 --> 00:28:30,550
My job was to do the library.
381
00:28:31,950 --> 00:28:34,690
First thing that caught my attention, it
was all cluttered.
382
00:28:34,950 --> 00:28:37,530
Boxes of books on the floor.
383
00:28:38,410 --> 00:28:43,470
The books I remember seizing were books
of children posing in their underwear.
384
00:28:43,850 --> 00:28:47,150
In and of themselves, they're not child
pornography.
385
00:28:47,550 --> 00:28:51,830
They weren't posing together in sexual
acts or anything like that.
386
00:28:52,130 --> 00:28:56,350
But based on the investigations I'd done
in the past, to me, those were grooming
387
00:28:56,350 --> 00:28:57,350
books.
388
00:28:57,420 --> 00:29:00,460
You know, we'd found books like that in
other situations.
389
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:09,320
We also found a pair of underwear briefs
390
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,400
stuffed in a box.
391
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:15,740
They were either very small adult or
children's briefs.
392
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:21,060
We had asked the housekeeper, where's
the bedroom?
393
00:29:21,380 --> 00:29:24,760
That's when we were told no one was
permitted into his bedroom.
394
00:29:26,030 --> 00:29:27,910
And nobody had a key for his bedroom.
395
00:29:32,790 --> 00:29:36,910
We were able to make entry.
396
00:29:40,170 --> 00:29:44,050
And when we walked in, it was a mess.
397
00:29:45,150 --> 00:29:49,190
Paper, clothes, covering the whole
floor.
398
00:29:50,150 --> 00:29:55,260
I found some pepperoni sausages that
were just... thrown in there.
399
00:29:56,380 --> 00:29:59,820
I remember thinking, oh my gosh, this is
filthy.
400
00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:02,460
Drawers weren't closed right.
401
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,040
You know, I'm sure everyone has a junk
drawer.
402
00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:09,560
There were a lot of junk drawers, if you
would.
403
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,420
Stuff thrown all over.
404
00:30:16,060 --> 00:30:21,980
In the area where the grand piano was,
that's where I located a briefcase,
405
00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:23,560
opened it up.
406
00:30:23,980 --> 00:30:28,800
And there were some magazines with
pornographic materials in them.
407
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:35,300
So that was a significant item because
it supported what Gavin said.
408
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:43,260
You know, in that moment, your whole
point of the investigation is to seek
409
00:30:43,260 --> 00:30:47,980
truth. When you talk about an innocent
child who's been taken advantage of,
410
00:30:48,140 --> 00:30:50,600
that's going to stir anger in anyone.
411
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:02,160
I think that Gavin was very courageous
to be able to come forward and
412
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,400
say what happened.
413
00:31:07,440 --> 00:31:14,300
There were several
414
00:31:14,300 --> 00:31:16,380
items that were taken away as evidence.
415
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:28,100
caliber of this investigation really hit
me of, oh my,
416
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,940
this is Michael Jackson.
417
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:38,720
There's definitely the feeling even now
of the intensity of the investigation.
418
00:31:38,860 --> 00:31:44,600
So it's just all surfacing that emotion
again.
419
00:31:53,870 --> 00:31:56,210
I wasn't expecting any emotion, to be
honest with you.
420
00:32:07,370 --> 00:32:09,710
Throughout the night, the search
continued.
421
00:32:10,050 --> 00:32:14,790
Patrol cars gliding past banks of
reporters, camera lights illuminating
422
00:32:14,790 --> 00:32:17,210
perimeter of the 3 ,000 -acre estate.
423
00:32:17,630 --> 00:32:22,070
When we heard about the raid on
Neverland, I'm...
424
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:25,540
in my childhood bedroom watching my
black and white TV.
425
00:32:26,540 --> 00:32:29,620
Let's just bring people up to date real
quick. The allegations were reportedly
426
00:32:29,620 --> 00:32:34,480
made by a 12 -year -old cancer victim
who said that Jackson gave him booze and
427
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:35,620
pills at Neverland Ranch.
428
00:32:36,460 --> 00:32:40,960
I just, I couldn't believe it was Gavin.
429
00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:43,840
I just was devastated.
430
00:32:45,390 --> 00:32:47,790
Tonight, Jackson is wanted by police.
431
00:32:48,050 --> 00:32:53,150
California authorities announced an
arrest warrant today accusing Jackson,
432
00:32:53,150 --> 00:32:59,290
45, of multiple felony counts of child
molestation. CBS News has learned that
433
00:32:59,290 --> 00:33:03,890
Michael Jackson will turn himself into
authority in Santa Barbara today.
434
00:33:05,670 --> 00:33:07,850
We briefly interrupt your programming.
435
00:33:08,330 --> 00:33:12,050
Pop star Michael Jackson has surrendered
to authorities in Santa Barbara,
436
00:33:12,170 --> 00:33:16,070
California. After landing just a few
moments ago at the Santa Barbara
437
00:33:16,390 --> 00:33:22,090
he is now en route to the Santa Barbara
jail, where he is about to be booked and
438
00:33:22,090 --> 00:33:23,090
processed.
439
00:33:25,710 --> 00:33:28,830
The media circus, it is in full swing.
440
00:33:29,070 --> 00:33:32,730
Reporters, cameras, and helicopters have
been chasing the Jackson story around
441
00:33:32,730 --> 00:33:33,730
Southern California.
442
00:33:33,790 --> 00:33:35,610
Michael Jackson under arrest.
443
00:33:36,030 --> 00:33:40,690
It is the shot seen around the world,
fingerprinted and photographed. Michael
444
00:33:40,690 --> 00:33:42,470
Jackson like you've never seen him
before.
445
00:33:43,450 --> 00:33:46,290
His lawyer says Jackson is innocent and
outraged.
446
00:33:48,330 --> 00:33:49,390
I was shocked.
447
00:33:49,950 --> 00:33:54,370
Michael called me from the jail. He
says, but can you believe this? I've
448
00:33:54,370 --> 00:33:55,370
nothing wrong.
449
00:33:55,850 --> 00:33:57,970
And they have me all over the news.
450
00:33:59,490 --> 00:34:04,110
Well, I said, you know, you just be you
and you do what you need to do.
451
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,860
Don't be afraid to defend yourself.
452
00:34:07,500 --> 00:34:12,420
He's come back specifically to confront
these charges head on.
453
00:34:12,659 --> 00:34:16,679
But I'm here to tell you today, and
Michael has given me the authority to
454
00:34:16,679 --> 00:34:19,679
his behalf, these charges are
categorically untrue.
455
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:20,920
Thank you very much.
456
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:28,360
When I asked him point blank, what is
this about? Who are these people?
457
00:34:28,460 --> 00:34:29,460
Did you do this?
458
00:34:35,710 --> 00:34:42,130
strong and how the conviction of his
459
00:34:42,130 --> 00:34:43,710
speaking to me.
460
00:34:44,449 --> 00:34:45,790
I knew he was innocent.
461
00:34:46,489 --> 00:34:51,330
I knew it. After he was processed, he
snuck out the back door. Through it all,
462
00:34:51,409 --> 00:34:56,570
the fading king of pop still manages to
wave and slash the victory sign.
463
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:05,400
He went right from the jail to the
airport, the same plane he flew in on,
464
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:09,800
flew out on, and now Fox has confirmed
he is now back in Las Vegas.
465
00:35:14,700 --> 00:35:19,420
At this point in time, the Arvizo family
were in an apartment in West L .A.
466
00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:25,080
They're very isolated over there. The
children are not going to school, and so
467
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:26,080
begin visiting.
468
00:35:27,620 --> 00:35:29,320
Gavin was a different person.
469
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,860
He was very different. He was subdued.
470
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:40,240
And his way of letting me know that
471
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:46,480
what he was saying was true
472
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:52,460
in his 14 -year -old way was to say
473
00:35:52,460 --> 00:35:56,360
he got me drunk. I was drunk.
474
00:35:59,820 --> 00:36:05,720
It seemed like how a 14 -year -old would
tell you, this happened
475
00:36:05,720 --> 00:36:12,660
because I wasn't in my right mind, and I
don't want you to think any less of me.
476
00:36:15,220 --> 00:36:17,020
It was just devastating.
477
00:36:21,820 --> 00:36:27,420
I did not believe in any way that
Michael was even capable of doing
478
00:36:27,420 --> 00:36:28,420
like this.
479
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:33,100
I love this family, and by extension,
love him.
480
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:38,060
There have been allegations against him
and his past with a boy, Jordan
481
00:36:38,060 --> 00:36:39,440
Chandler, but they went away.
482
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:43,780
This isn't the first time Jackson has
been accused of child molestation.
483
00:36:44,020 --> 00:36:48,000
Ten years ago, Jackson had been accused
of molesting another child, but the case
484
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:49,400
was settled out of court.
485
00:36:49,700 --> 00:36:55,840
This time, because the Bashir
documentary was fresh in everybody's
486
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,420
what stood out...
487
00:36:57,899 --> 00:36:59,140
was that boy.
488
00:37:00,140 --> 00:37:02,100
Michael was being so affectionate with
him.
489
00:37:03,360 --> 00:37:07,360
You had to know that they were going to
go all the way with this one, that he's
490
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:09,020
going to have to face the music in
court.
491
00:37:10,220 --> 00:37:16,660
All of this is going on, and I'm still
like, okay, we got to give Michael the
492
00:37:16,660 --> 00:37:17,660
benefit of the doubt.
493
00:37:17,860 --> 00:37:21,900
We just want to let Michael Jackson know
that he's got friends here in Santa
494
00:37:21,900 --> 00:37:23,900
Barbara. I'll never believe it.
495
00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:26,280
It's just impossible.
496
00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,420
MJ would never hurt a child. MJ is the
kindest person in the world.
497
00:37:44,240 --> 00:37:50,260
Michael Jackson, after his booking, made
an allegation to the press that he had
498
00:37:50,260 --> 00:37:53,640
been physically harmed by somebody in
the sheriff's department.
499
00:37:54,660 --> 00:37:56,440
They manhandled me very roughly.
500
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:00,040
My shoulder is dislocated, literally.
501
00:38:00,580 --> 00:38:03,560
It was a pure fabrication, completely
made up.
502
00:38:03,780 --> 00:38:08,660
It's hurting me very badly. I'm in pain
all the time. See this arm? This is as
503
00:38:08,660 --> 00:38:09,660
far as I can reach it.
504
00:38:09,940 --> 00:38:11,580
Same with this side over here.
505
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:15,640
Because of what happened at the police
station? Yeah, at the police station.
506
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,900
There was an investigation that was
done, and there was no evidence that
507
00:38:19,900 --> 00:38:21,920
had been any kind of harm.
508
00:38:22,549 --> 00:38:28,750
If you saw what they did to my arms, it
509
00:38:28,750 --> 00:38:33,510
was very bad what they did.
510
00:38:33,930 --> 00:38:36,370
I just remember thinking how absurd it
was.
511
00:38:36,730 --> 00:38:39,130
And I thought, who in the world would
believe it?
512
00:38:40,130 --> 00:38:43,870
But apparently there are. I mean, if you
are a believer of Michael Jackson,
513
00:38:43,930 --> 00:38:46,790
you'll believe what he says. It doesn't
matter how preposterous it is.
514
00:38:48,070 --> 00:38:50,650
Before I would hurt a child, I would
slit my wrists.
515
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:52,360
I would never hurt a child.
516
00:38:52,700 --> 00:38:54,140
It was totally false.
517
00:38:54,340 --> 00:38:55,600
I was outraged.
518
00:38:56,620 --> 00:38:58,540
I could never do something like that.
519
00:38:59,300 --> 00:39:06,040
Michael's biggest attribute, he could
make you feel like so sorry for
520
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:07,920
him. What time is it?
521
00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:10,040
Because I'm hurting.
522
00:39:10,500 --> 00:39:11,700
I don't feel good.
523
00:39:12,780 --> 00:39:15,520
He had this aura about him.
524
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:23,050
I know when I've been in his presence, I
felt like, oh, boy, you know,
525
00:39:23,130 --> 00:39:25,110
people should leave Michael alone.
526
00:39:28,070 --> 00:39:32,410
This is nothing but a modern -day
lynching. This is what they want to see,
527
00:39:32,410 --> 00:39:35,810
in handcuffs. You got it. But it won't
be for long, I promise you.
528
00:39:38,570 --> 00:39:42,770
You got a bunch of racist, I'm sorry,
racist rednecks out there who don't care
529
00:39:42,770 --> 00:39:48,570
about people. We are a family. My mother
is very angry. We're all angry. And
530
00:39:48,570 --> 00:39:51,770
we're going to put our soldiers and our
generals together and prepare for war.
531
00:39:51,910 --> 00:39:52,910
That's what this is.
532
00:39:53,070 --> 00:39:57,750
When Jermaine came out and called it the
modern day, in the moment, I thought,
533
00:39:57,850 --> 00:39:58,850
that's a stretch.
534
00:40:00,010 --> 00:40:05,390
It was just to get attention. It was
just to try and galvanize particularly
535
00:40:05,390 --> 00:40:06,850
black America.
536
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:12,320
When you mention lynching, it's going to
hit here.
537
00:40:12,700 --> 00:40:15,980
And that's exactly what he wanted you to
feel.
538
00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:20,680
I don't understand racism.
539
00:40:21,340 --> 00:40:25,520
My mother, she was pulling out of the
market. And you've got to scream out to
540
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:30,100
her, go back to Africa, you nigger. Just
like that. It hurt me so much.
541
00:40:31,740 --> 00:40:36,700
I have seen the evilness in man, how
vindictive man can be, how cruel.
542
00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:43,680
how abusive, how judgmental, how they
have hurt me and done all these things,
543
00:40:43,800 --> 00:40:46,140
and what's made me hold on.
544
00:40:46,620 --> 00:40:49,740
What has saved my life is children.
545
00:40:57,230 --> 00:41:01,310
The latest bombshell in the Michael
Jackson case centers around Jackson's
546
00:41:01,310 --> 00:41:06,030
closest business associates and whether
or not they were behind a plot to abduct
547
00:41:06,030 --> 00:41:08,890
and silence the accuser and his family.
548
00:41:09,510 --> 00:41:15,010
ABC News has learned that prosecutors
are focused on two men, Vinnie Amin and
549
00:41:15,010 --> 00:41:18,090
Frank Tyson, both longtime Jackson
associates.
550
00:41:19,120 --> 00:41:23,580
According to sources familiar with the
case, Amin and Tyson are being accused
551
00:41:23,580 --> 00:41:27,200
using pressure tactics to try and
silence the alleged victim's family.
552
00:41:27,940 --> 00:41:32,260
Kidnapping and hostage is horrible,
devastating.
553
00:41:32,700 --> 00:41:33,740
It was wrong.
554
00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,100
They went too far with that word.
555
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:44,900
When it came out, the media said, well,
they can just file an arrest warrant
556
00:41:44,900 --> 00:41:46,260
right on the fly in California.
557
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:47,920
I mean, I was scared.
558
00:41:48,510 --> 00:41:49,690
I was 22 years old.
559
00:41:56,770 --> 00:42:02,130
We included a conspiracy to commit
kidnapping because in a conspiracy you
560
00:42:02,130 --> 00:42:05,810
put in a lot of information that paints
a very compelling story.
561
00:42:06,530 --> 00:42:11,690
The conspiracy to commit kidnapping was
the efforts that Jackson and his crew
562
00:42:11,690 --> 00:42:16,310
were making to remove the family from
the state of California and from the
563
00:42:16,310 --> 00:42:17,310
United States.
564
00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:22,500
to take them down to Brazil where they
could not be discovered by police, by
565
00:42:22,500 --> 00:42:23,840
enforcement, or by the press.
566
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:33,740
When someone asked me how I feel, it
couldn't get worse. It just kept getting
567
00:42:33,740 --> 00:42:34,820
worse, worse, worse, worse, worse.
568
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:40,680
Steve Robel from the Santa Barbara
Sheriff's Department, he wanted to ask
569
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,380
questions. He left voicemails for us.
570
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,020
They were a little threatening.
571
00:43:11,240 --> 00:43:14,840
They basically were like, you know, jump
on board or we may file additional
572
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:15,840
charges.
573
00:43:17,380 --> 00:43:19,720
We were worried that maybe we would get
searched.
574
00:43:20,790 --> 00:43:23,350
Frank and I decided that we were going
to bring it to the attorney.
575
00:43:23,570 --> 00:43:28,370
Any business items we had that were
associated with Michael Jackson.
576
00:43:29,050 --> 00:43:31,350
So Frank handed me a bag.
577
00:43:32,470 --> 00:43:35,930
Ends up, I take it back to my house
because there was something suspicious
578
00:43:35,930 --> 00:43:36,930
I didn't like.
579
00:43:36,970 --> 00:43:42,830
And when I opened up the bag, I found
this magazine.
580
00:43:46,890 --> 00:43:51,030
It was a naturalist magazine with a
video ordering section that had naked
581
00:43:51,030 --> 00:43:54,090
in it, and there was circles around the
videos to be ordered.
582
00:43:57,090 --> 00:43:59,090
That was just a devastating blow for me.
583
00:44:00,730 --> 00:44:05,910
That was a psychological hit that I
never, you know, now I see how this case
584
00:44:05,910 --> 00:44:11,730
going, and all of a sudden I see that,
and I came to a conclusion that
585
00:44:11,730 --> 00:44:13,110
everything has been lied to me.
586
00:44:15,470 --> 00:44:18,370
Now this is the realm of sexual abuse of
children.
587
00:44:20,390 --> 00:44:24,290
Now it became very real to me.
588
00:44:25,230 --> 00:44:30,650
And it became very real that Frank knew
about what's going on and he's not
589
00:44:30,650 --> 00:44:32,450
coming forward.
590
00:44:35,510 --> 00:44:42,510
I know Frank was
591
00:44:42,510 --> 00:44:47,860
manipulated, but... being associated
with Michael Jackson, who was
592
00:44:47,860 --> 00:44:48,860
children.
593
00:44:49,860 --> 00:44:55,380
It's like a wound that opens up, and
then when you open that wound, it
594
00:44:55,380 --> 00:44:59,020
you psychologically. So I guess I've
done a lot of work on it to heal that
595
00:44:59,020 --> 00:45:03,360
wound, but I think it would always
affect me.
596
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,180
I've had years of healing.
597
00:45:13,220 --> 00:45:14,760
But, you know, it still hurts.
598
00:45:17,100 --> 00:45:21,100
If Michael was actually committing sex
abuse against children, he used to be
599
00:45:21,100 --> 00:45:22,100
brought to justice.
600
00:45:31,700 --> 00:45:36,360
This is just the start of what's likely
to be a very public and dirty war. We're
601
00:45:36,360 --> 00:45:38,000
certainly poised for the trial of the
century.
602
00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,380
He is fighting these molestation
charges.
603
00:45:40,660 --> 00:45:41,660
Michael!
604
00:45:42,860 --> 00:45:45,800
I think Michael Jackson is fighting for
his life right now.
605
00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:51,640
Five counts of child molestation, four
counts of supplying a minor with
606
00:45:51,780 --> 00:45:55,820
one count of conspiracy for forced
imprisonment. If he's guilty on all
607
00:45:55,820 --> 00:46:00,520
charges, then he will face a maximum of
18 years and eight months in prison.
608
00:46:05,740 --> 00:46:09,520
