When you become an icon, like an
international phenomenon, the jealousy

involved.

I mean, I've seen some serious jealousy.

They've been very, very cruel and mean
to me.

If they don't think I hear it and see
it, I do.

I do.

If people could only see way before any
of this crap that they started and

allegations and all these lies and
stories, if they could see all the

and all the orphanages and all those
things that I've done, if they could see

that, I think they would totally have a
different opinion.

But people, they don't want the good
stories.

Breaking news once again, so stand by
here on Fox News Live.

Michael Jackson, of course, facing seven
counts of child molestation, two counts

of administering an intoxicating agent
to a child. He's facing 20 years. Fans

started arriving in the middle of the
night to get a good seat or stand right

next to the courthouse.

The famous arraignment. Oh, my gosh.

The entire world converged on Santa
Maria.

More than a thousand journalists.

I was there for all of it. He is
fighting these molestation charges and

going to do everything he can.

I think on my deathbed, certain events
will flash before

my eyes because it was that intense.

Michael Jackson is motorcade winding its
way to the courthouse under police

motorcycle escort.

I was about four or five miles to get to
the courthouse.

And the cops, with their sirens blaring,
there were six motorcycle cops.

Not even the president gets that.

It was a zoo.

What can you tell us outside the Santa
Maria courthouse? We heard cheers.

We arrived about 8 .45.

Michael did stop to acknowledge the
hundreds of fans.

It was just sheer craziness.

I was there trying to record it with my
videographer.

His entourage is coming up.

And Michael was telling his
videographer, get that, get that.

Michael Jackson was orchestrating.

There are people out there from all over
the world.

So I think it's quite a spontaneous
outpouring of support. That is nice to

A lot of those fans.

were buffed up there from Las Vegas,
from San Diego, from Los Angeles.

So while his attorney called it a
spontaneous outpouring of love, it was

actually highly orchestrated.

It shows Michael Jackson's genius at
spectacle.

Members of a black separatist group, the
Nation of Islam, flanked the street.

They're reported to be protecting and
possibly advising the singer.

Jermaine Jackson brings the nation of
Islam.

And when they marched ahead of Michael,
it was the most amazing sight I had ever

seen, this show of force.

There is a strategy behind trying to
galvanize the black community.

White folks are doing this. White folks
are prosecuting him. White folks are

accusing him.

And he's come to us for help. We're
going to help.

And Michael knew that.

And he used that.

As we're arriving at the courthouse,
there were three helicopters flying

circling.

There were a few thousand demonstrators,
literally screaming.

This was child molestation.

He's a 15 -year -old kid.

He's a 15 -year -old kid who's a cancer
survivor.

You didn't see him crying or holding his
head down because he knew he was

innocent.

During his time in court, Michael would
call me at 2 and 3 in the morning.

You've got to go out there and tell
people I'm innocent.

Michael feels very confident in his
defense team, and we have a long way to

And that's what I did.

Michael Jackson leaving Judge Rodney
Melville's courtroom.

We know that Jackson nodded when he
asked if he understood the charges. He

not guilty when asked for his plea.

Michael Jackson walks out of court,
surrounded by his family, surrounded by

bodyguards, and when he's about to get
into his SUV limo, all hell breaks

Oh, my goodness, look at this. He's
jumping on top of the car.

Oh, yeah, we see him.

It's truly performing for his fans,
truly performing.

The crowd is just going completely
insane, and he's just turning around and

of doing a move.

Consequently, what was happening outside
court made the headlines, as opposed to

what was happening inside court.

Brilliant strategy.

Pull focus.

Pull focus.

A lot of people said, hey, that's just
disrespectful.

That's not the way you conduct yourself.
You conduct yourself with decorum. Any

attorney will tell his client, no, no,
no, you show respect.

Uh -uh, not Michael Jackson.

If you want the world to know you are
innocent, you show your face to

everybody that you are not afraid.

And that's what he did.

fire and the majesty when you can
command an audience.

I love my fans, the loyal ones, that no
matter what, they're there, man.

They're thick and thin.

Whatever you do, they're right there
with you.

They love me unconditionally.

I'm like a lion. Nobody can hurt me.
Nothing can harm me.

I think people believe what they want to
believe.

And it's not necessarily based on logic.

I think it's based on emotion.

He had the ability to be able to
convince them of things that are

unbelievable.

And I think that created for him a sense
of invincibility.

But from the prosecution standpoint, we
knew we were dealing with a pedophile.

And he was the pedophile who could abuse
children almost with impunity.

And we felt that we had enough
cooperative evidence to be able to win

Michael was feeling frightened.

Pure, plain, and simple, he was scared
to death.

He called me in the middle of the night,
so upset.

Brian, why are they doing this to me?

Because your name is Michael Jackson.

If your name were Smith Jones, they'd
throw this case out in a hot second.

This is a fraudulent scam.

Gavin Arvizu was misrepresenting.

telling fantasies and false statements.

He says, how are we going to win, Brian?

And I said, we have to overturn every
stone.

It means subpoenaing and interviewing
every witness there is.

And Michael said, do it, Brian.

That's what you're going to do.

I said, you bet.

Another allegation of sexual abuse was
going to bankrupt Michael Jackson, and

they knew it.

They knew what the consequence of a
child coming forward and making another

allegation of child sexual abuse was
going to be because of what happened

Jordan Chandler back in 93.

Pop superstar Michael Jackson is facing
allegations of child abuse and Los

Angeles police have launched a criminal
investigation.

This is the boy at the center of the
allegations.

13 -year -old Jordan Chandler was
pictured with Michael Jackson on holiday

Monte Carlo earlier this year.

In 1993, I was Michael Jackson's...

personal chambermaid for his bedroom.

I think he chose me because I was quiet.

And I think he thought that he could
keep his secrets with me.

Hold on, let me use the inhaler.

Sorry.

Sometimes when I think of him, I get
asthma.

Sorry.

Sorry, I'm probably crazy.

I don't know.

There were always little boys, different
little boys, that never left.

Running around the property.

At the theater, watching movies with no
parents around.

And I think he'd get a kick out of
watching them fight for his attention.

There was one day when Mr. Jackson had
come into his bedroom with one of his

little friends.

And his little friend was Geordie
Chandler.

I was cleaning the stairwell, and so I
kind of glanced, and where they stood,

they couldn't see me.

And I saw Mr. Jackson kissing Geordie on
the cheek near his mouth, and I saw

his hand by his crotch.

And I was bothered by seeing that, very,
very bothered.

I didn't, I didn't...

I thought that I didn't want to believe
Michael Jackson was a

man who had a problem with little boys.

They had been in a jacuzzi.

They changed their clothes and they took
off.

It was an awful feeling.

I can't even explain it.

And then, you know, I kept thinking,
well, maybe...

Maybe that's not what I'm seeing. You
start questioning yourself for what you

did see, and then you think, well, you
can't just call the police over there.

They're going to think you're crazy.

My detective supervisor says, hey, Rose,
I have a case that I need you to

investigate.

We have allegations from a young victim
that Michael Jackson sexually molested

him on numerous occasions.

So I'm like, Michael Jackson, you're
kidding, right?

It was almost unbelievable.

The media, they found out right away.

So it was all over the news.

That very same day, we went out to the
victim's home.

I introduced myself and then began my
interview.

One of the first things he talked about
being in Las Vegas with Michael Jackson.

The parents became very comfortable with
Michael Jackson and allowed the victim

to spend time with Michael alone.

They were seeing, hugging, and touching.

Jackson was talking to the kid, and the
kid was overwhelmed, according

to him, seeing his star.

And being able to touch him and say,
wow.

This is the grooming process.

That night in his suite, Michael asked
him, come on, let's watch

a movie.

The movie was The Exorcist.

He was petrified.

Michael said, would you like to stay
here, sleep with me?

And they did.

The victim described the abuse initially
began with fondling, kissing.

Later on, it progressed to more
aggressive sexual contact.

When mom found out that the child had
slept with Michael Jackson, she

became pretty upset.

Whenever he was confronted by a parent,
Michael would start crying.

He made himself the victim.

You know, how can you think this of me?
Oh my God, I would never do anything

like that. You know, I love children.

You have to trust me.

Children, I think, can be very loyal.

A lot of adults, they sell out to what
they think people want to hear.

A good child will not do that. You show
them a good time, the next day they're

all over you with love and hugs and
kisses.

Michael Jackson today refused to comment
on the police investigation as he

prepared for the first stage of his
world tour in Thailand.

I remember when the allegations came
out, the Jackson family, they held a

conference. We join you here today as a
family united, a family that has

struggled from the bottom up.

The family felt like somebody was trying
to shake him down.

Michael has been made...

a victim and cruel, obvious attempt to
take advantage of his fame and success.

The most important thing to them was
that this image they had to protect.

Certainly in the black community, they
were always like, we're the black

Kennedys. We're America's royalty.

Believe me, in 1993, the Jackson family
was extremely powerful.

And boy, oh boy, did they ever come to
his defense.

Jackson's Mr.

Fix -It. Private investigator Anthony
Pelicano, one of Hollywood's most

people, called in to do damage control.

The strategy, it was about protecting
the golden goose, number one, but also

protecting the family's name.

Now you're seeing him start to take on
this victimhood.

This victim mentality.

It's not me.

It's somebody else who's the bad guy.

Good morning, everyone. The Michael
Jackson child sex abuse investigation is

expanding. Authorities are looking into
his relationships now with at least four

boys.

The names were given by the victim's
mom.

She has a list of all the children that
they met.

There were a lot of times where we went
to locations to interview people.

Anthony Patacano was there before we
were.

First was Wade Robson.

Michael was helping him with his music
career that he brought him from

because Michael saw the talent that he
had.

When we got there, he refused to open
the door at the beginning.

They basically, you know, said, look,
Anthony Pelicano was here. We spoke to

him. He says that we're not obligated to
speak to the police.

He's working for Michael Jackson.
Michael Jackson never abused me.

Wade Robson denied everything.

Then Mr. Pelicano put the children on
TV.

I know Michael very well.

I know he wouldn't do anything like
that.

Has he ever tried to do anything with
you that would even be considered

questionable?

No, nothing.

With Brett Barnes, it was the same
thing. He's a great man, and we don't

anything to say.

When you'd have sleepovers and you'd
stay in the same room or the same bed,

that seem unusual to you at all?

No. Because I slept on one side of the
bed, he slept on the other, and that was

that. It was ruthless with what they
did. They really just had absolutely no

regard. They all negated that they were
victims.

Things at Neverland change dramatically.

Michael brought these.

seven bodyguards back, and they would
harass the employees.

They had guns.

They'd point them at people. They didn't
care.

They'd do whatever they can do to scare
you to just shut the hell up.

One day I was in his bedroom when he was
standing by his bed, and out of the

blue he says, Adrian, you know, if you
ever say or do anything that I don't

like, All I have to do is tell security.

They would take care of you, but it
wouldn't come from me.

I thought, you're threatening me.

And then I got a subpoena, and I had to
give a deposition.

My head was spinning.

I was questioned about what I had seen.

with Mr. Jackson and Geordie.

I was young. I was scared, very mixed
up.

Michael had some kind of control over
me, and I

didn't say what I should have said,

which was the truth, and I held it back.

Amid all Michael Jackson's trouble, it
finally seemed he'd gotten his family in

line behind him. Except, of course, for
the renegade Latoya.

Michael is my brother.

I love him a great deal.

But I cannot and I will not be a silent
collaborator of his crimes against

small, innocent children.

What 35 -year -old man is going to take
a little boy and stay with him for 30

days? It blew everyone away. The family
is horrified and angry at the same time.

There's no validity to what she is
saying. It's absolutely not true. My

is not a child molester.

Latoya is lying, and I'll tell her to
her face she's lying.

Latoya was ostracized for that.

And not only was she ostracized from the
family, but fans turned on her and

drove.

Michael was raised by a very pious
mother.

I mean, any time I walked in on her, she
was reading the Bible.

And Michael was raised in that milieu.

He was deeply connected to his mother,
who offered unconditional love and

acceptance.

All the stuff that goes on about my
family and about Michael, it really

When they were talking about him, about
the child molestation thing, it makes me

angry because he needed someone to help
him, to protect him.

The family of a teenage boy is dropping
a charge that Michael Jackson molested

the boy.

The case was settled in secret,
reportedly for millions.

The resolution of this case is in no way
an admission of guilt by Michael

Jackson. I felt the victim was very
credible.

But once that was settled, our case was
gone.

It was killed.

One

afternoon,

I was cleaning in Michael's room.

And he came up to me and he said,
Adrian, this is for you.

And he handed me an index card, and he
wrote on it, Adrian, thanks for

everything.

I opened it, and it was three $100
bills.

I felt like that was a payoff to cover
up for him.

Kind of sad, so I don't know.

Can you guys hold on? Because my eyes
feel like they're glossy.

Because I feel like stupid.

Just dumb mistakes you make in life
that, you know, you shouldn't do

And I did it.

But you live and learn.

Is that restroom open?

Sure. Okay, let me just stop because I
don't want them to open.

Back in 1993, George Chandler became one
of the wealthiest 13 -year -olds in

America overnight with the settlement of
that case.

Did I feel that justice wasn't done?
Sure.

But their visa family was very
different.

They were determined that they weren't
going to take money.

Gavin was going to testify.

I'm very different.

I don't follow a trail. I make the path.

I'm an innovator, a pioneer.

But have you had to pay a price because
of that?

Yes, I have.

Terrible price.

Terrible price.

Racism, jealousy, just hate, just evil.

But I'll never lose it because it's what
my heart is.

After five weeks of jury selection, the
trial of the singer Michael Jackson will

begin in California later today.

Celebrity justice correspondent Jane
Velez Mitchell has been following the

She joins us from Santa Barbara. This is
a Shakespearean tragedy.

It's an American tragedy. It's a human
tragedy.

There was a certain sense of privilege
of being able to cover it.

What do we know about the 12 -year -old?
The story today is he's a cancer

survivor. There was so much media there,
you would have thought it was like a

national political convention.

Michael Jackson arriving with his mother
and brother Jermaine was greeted by

both cheers and jeers.

The entire world was focused on whether
Michael Jackson is or is not a

pedophile.

This was the most expensive prosecution
in the history of Santa Barbara County.

Michael Jackson's word against theirs.

They say he exposes kids to alcohol,
porn, and...

Strange sexual behavior.

He is very serious, subdued. He came in,
he waved briefly to his fans. He came

in with Jermaine, his brother, and his
mother.

He was elaborately dressed, sort of a
regal thing.

He also wore a band, and I guess the
significance of the band was for him

saying, I'm innocent.

From everything I've seen and I've heard
and I've followed, there's no way he's

guilty, you know.

The sale of his record soared. I said,
Michael, your records are selling like

hotcakes. Your fans believe in you.

And I am going to prove you innocent.

The jury in the Michael Jackson trial
will hear two very different stories

opening statements began today.

The defense is expected to describe
Jackson as the victim of a money -hungry

who coached her son to lie for cash.

The prosecution, on the other hand, will
paint Jackson as a wicked pedophile who

got a sick boy drunk to molest him.

Did I ever feel that we had it in the
bag? No, not at all. Not at all.

I knew that ultimately, for a jury, it
would be very easy for them to absolve

themselves of any of the responsibility
of him going off into prison.

That was my biggest fear.

Now it's all up to them, the jury. Four
men, eight women.

You're very conscious of what you're
doing and what the magnitude of your

participation is.

It's Michael Jackson's legacy up for
grabs.

Is he going to be remembered as this
person that just loved children or one

the world's greatest entertainers who
was a child molester?

It was Martin Bashir's documentary,
Living With Michael Jackson, which

an investigation which led to this
trial.

When people hear that children from
other families have come and they've

in your house, they've stayed in your
bedroom,

Well, very few.

But, you know, some have.

I thought that that was good, compelling
evidence for us. It's the admission

that he sleeps with kids.

Is that really appropriate for a man, a
grown man, to be doing that? How do you

respond to that? I feel sorry for them
because that's judging someone who wants

to really help people.

Why can't you share your bed?

The most loving thing to do is to share
your bed with someone.

You really think that?

Yeah.

Martin Bashir's reaction to it, I
thought was the reaction a reasonable

would have.

How do you justify having children in
your bed?

What other adult man do you know
anywhere in the world who does that

a pedophile?

Who would you be willing to let your
children sleep with in terms of an adult

man?

And the answer is nobody.

The defense set out to undermine Martin
Bashir's credibility, bombarding him

with questions, most of which he refused
to answer, citing a journalist's right

to protect his sources.

Jackson and Gavin had a very emotional
connection.

When they first met, Gavin was
recovering from cancer, he had been

sick, and Michael Jackson was there to
offer support.

Gavin said Michael would do things that
would take down inhibitions.

And then it escalates into increasingly
sexual language. So he's

desensitizing kids.

He makes them feel like they're
culpable. He uses the word we.

We're doing this. We'd be in trouble.

He... incorporates the child in all of
the misbehavior,

you're already in trouble for drinking
alcohol,

watching porn.

Like, there's already a million things
your mom can never know about by the

you're abused.

Michael Jackson's public persona was the
person who just loved children.

And what he was trying to convince
people of was that he really was the

-day Peter Pan.

But there is no such thing as Peter Pan.

What he was always doing was looking for
a child that he could eventually get

into his bed.

And, of course, it was Gavin who was the
target of his attentions.

For Gavin, it was worse than getting
cancer, which how can you...

say that? How can anybody say that about
anything?

I know Gavin, and Gavin's just a very
truthful person.

He isn't the person that wants to hang
on to a lot of baggage.

He's just going to confront what this is
and deal with the repercussions.

The key witnesses in this extraordinary
trial whisked into court this morning

through a side entrance.

Gavin, Michael Jackson's accuser.

It's the big moment of the trial.

The accuser is taking the stand.

The heart of the testimony is going to
be delivered by the accuser on this day.

I was standing right there outside the
courthouse waiting for Michael Jackson

arrive, and that is the day that Michael
Jackson doesn't come to court.

His face etched with anxiety, Michael
Jackson's lawyer waits for a client

gone missing.

The judge says, you better get to court
within the hour or I'm going to arrest

you. We're just waiting on pins and
needles, literally staring at where the

is supposed to show up.

Everybody's like, is he going to show?
Isn't he going to show? What on earth is

going on here?

There was a giant motorcade.

helicopters above as Michael Jackson
raced from the hospital to the

They were driving up the 101 freeway at
110 miles an hour.

Because the judge said, if you're not
here in an hour, I'm forfeiting your

Somebody was going to get killed.

I was furious.

Judge, you have to understand this man's
life and the people surrounding him.

Nope. An hour. That's it.

It was like watching a movie unfold, but
you're part of the movie.

A strange day was just about to get even
stranger.

After a while, he shows up, and he gets
out very slowly in his

pajamas.

All the focus shifts to outside court,
not to the little boy.

waiting in the wings to testify and
accuse Michael Jackson of molestation.

Imagine what he was going through.

A couple ways to look at this. First of
all, he really was hurt and needed to

get to the hospital. The other is that
maybe it's just a ploy to drum up some

kind of sympathy from the jury.

A cynic would say, brilliant
orchestration to destabilize the

I mean, this guy knows.

how to direct the attention to him and
away from what's happening inside court.

And he did it over and over and over
again.

What does this kid have to say?

Well, I'll tell you, he comes across as
a very believable, articulate, and

sympathetic witness.

This boy has been waiting in the wings
for this moment, and his moment has

It's kind of strange.

You know, here we sit, you know, 20
years later, and I'm still remembering.

how I felt, he absolutely looked
believable to me.

To me he appeared to be a child that was
going through this really

terrible struggle to admit

that as a boy he had been molested by a

man.

Now you have to tell your story in front
of the world, talk about all these

things that you did. You know, that's
really hard to do.

It's the worst thing that a boy would
ever have to say out loud.

It's why most men go to their death with
these secrets.

And now the race is on.

Can Jackson's defense sufficiently
discredit a child witness over the next

days without upsetting him?

We went to trial with the molestations
that took place in the three -week

after the Bashir documentary.

We believe that he was molesting Gavin
prior to that as well.

But I think that the bulk of the
molestation and all of the charged

the molestation occurred during the
three -week period.

Why would he do it with that focus of
attention?

The answer is he can't help himself.

He was a pedophile.

Michael Jackson's lawyers are taking aim
at his accuser.

Jackson's lawyer's clear intention is to
paint this boy as someone whose word

the jury simply cannot afford to trust.

We asked the prosecution when it was
that Michael Jackson molested Gavin

Harvey's. One incident was February
21st, they said.

The family was at the ranch. Gavin was
in bed with Michael and Star, the

brother, came up the stairway and Star
saw Michael masturbating the boy in bed.

I said, really?

I have here an article from the Palm
Beach newspaper, February 22, that the

before Michael Jackson was seen shopping
in Palm Beach, Florida.

Now, how was it that he was at Neverland
Ranch on the 21st?

Bingo, I got him. Michael was telling
the truth.

These accusers were not.

It's a tough thing for kids to come
forward and publicly talk about having

victim of sex crime.

Very often, the victims of sexual abuse
can't say with certainty the details of

what had happened on this occasion or
that occasion or the next occasion.

It's just the nature of the phenomena.

This isn't a whodunit where there's
clearly a crime and one or more victims.

This is a, did it really happen?

Everything about this case is
confounding.

There's the innocent explanation and the
sinister explanation.

Is Gavin the accuser credible?

Is Michael Jackson credible?

You decide.

The defense in the Michael Jackson trial
suffered a big setback today. The judge

said he will allow the prosecution to
present evidence that Jackson has been

accused of molesting children before.

What we were able to bring in with
regards to past bad acts was that a

years earlier, Jordan Chandler walked
away with millions of dollars.

The jury looks at that and they think,
come on, how is this going to happen

twice? It's a huge blow to Jackson, and
it's great news for prosecutors. They

essentially get a second chance to make
a first impression, and the whole case

has changed. It's a new dynamic.

What happened 10 years ago is
irrelevant.

You have to prove the defendant guilty
beyond a reasonable doubt based on what

they did now, not what they did before.

Oh, you can besmirch the defendant, you
can make the defendant look bad.

That's not evidence.

That's character assassination.

When I left Neverland and walked out of
that job, me and a lot of the employees,

we sued Mr. Jackson for the treatment
that we got, the things that we saw,

Michael with kids and stuff.

There were a lot of different counts,
and there was molestation in there.

The judge ruled that we could not bring
up molestation.

We lost our lawsuit.

So when I got called for his trial, I
didn't want nothing to do with Michael.

I didn't even want to look at him.

Former Jackson maid Adrienne McManus is
now on the stand. She is talking about

the parade of young boys who came
through Neverland.

When I walked in there, he looked at me
like... Oh, Adrian, where have you been?

I've missed you.

That angered me because I could see the
games through him.

You know, I saw what he did to me. I saw
that he only cared about himself.

I said what I had to say about what I
saw with Mr. Jackson and Jordan Chandler

and what I had seen.

And Michael just turned his face.

He would not look at me again.

And I thought, good, I am free from you
now.

You don't control me.

I truly felt that Michael Jackson was a
child molester.

I felt that then, and I haven't changed
my mind now. I still feel that way.

But I had to give Michael Jackson the
benefit of the doubt.

You know, he really didn't do this or
whatever. That's what the jury was

supposed to do.

What should have been a damaging account
instead fizzled after Tom Mesereau

dismantled her on cross -examination,
getting her to admit she tried to sue

Jackson and lost, and lied in an earlier
deposition.

They destroyed us.

So, and that's, like I said, I get angry
that, you know, a lot of people,

especially the jurors, right away they
were like, yeah, these people.

They just want money. They just want
money. It was a tough situation dealing

with that.

The problem that we had was that a
number of the people who worked for him

brought a lawsuit against him and lost
and ended up with a

judgment against them for expenses, a
judgment that they never paid,

and it seriously affected their
credibility.

and their ability to be able to talk
about what had happened.

It really hurt us.

There was another witness that really,
to this day, sticks with me, was

Jordan Chandler's mom.

The latest twist in his trial, a claim
that Michael Jackson begged a young

mother to allow the youngster to sleep
with him.

That allegation was made by June
Chandler, who said she was showered with

jewelry by the singer as he swept her
family off on trips to Monaco, Florida,

and Las Vegas.

I remember her taking a stand just 10
years after Jordan's situation.

And she said she was a horrible mother,
and her exact words was, I sold my son

to Michael Jackson.

She said that she hadn't heard from her
son, and she understood why.

I just thought, oh, my gosh.

It moved me. I can't understand how it
would not have moved any jury.

I thought it was very damaging
testimony, particularly the moment where

that Michael Jackson, crying and shaking
and trembling, begged her to allow.

her son to sleep with him and basically
said we're family well they're not

family why should a mother be asked to
trust a middle -aged man to be entitled

to sleep with her son i thought oh my
gosh what kind of grown man

would try because this mother decides
she don't want to bring her little boy

have a sleepover with you and i thought

She's gonna lose this thing what
possessed a mother to allow her son to

stranger's bed was never made clear But
asked by the prosecution as she

concluded her testimony whether she
regretted placing her trust in Michael

Jackson June Chandler replied very much
though The message it was kind

of clear to me

The parents didn't protect their sons
because they were groomed as much as the

kids were into thinking that everything
was going to be okay.

They were as awestruck with Michael
Jackson as the kids themselves.

This was what Michael Jackson would do.
He was able to win over the loyalty.

of the mothers of these children by
giving them lavish gifts and treating

to a lavish lifestyle.

We had Jordan Chandler's mother in
there. We had the proof that there was a

settlement. We had the proof that he had
spent an endless amount of time in bed

with him. I've won cases with no more
evidence than that.

There's witness after witness that say
Jackson had the pattern and practice of

molesting children. And I'll tell you,
the jury's going to look to that, and

they're going to have a difficult time
saying that Jackson is not a pedophile

this case.
