It's a really grueling documentary.
A lot of the details that emerge, even without some of the context of the allegation, are kind of stomach-churning in themselves.
Jackson had a bedroom with a hallway leading up to it that was covered with cameras.
It was booby-trapped with alarms so that an alarm would sound if anyone approaches.
So his bedroom was completely private and sealed off.
In Jackson's bedroom, there were suitcases of erotic material.
Forensic investigators subsequently found fingerprints of the boys on such materials.
The Robson and Safechuck case is actually yet to go to trial.
It's scheduled for later this year.
Then just this February, new allegations broke by four siblings, the Casio siblings.
I spoke with their lawyer, Howard King, who represents them, and told me all about how they allege a decade of sustained abuse.
They allege child trafficking, they allege assault, and they allege grooming in...
A level of detail which is really shocking and harrowing to read, to review those reports.
That case will likely be going to trial next year.
But in the meantime, the estate would very much like you to focus on the biopic and celebration of his life.
So we have these sort of dueling parallel narratives at the moment.
So I think that's true, and I think there is a protective instinct, especially from a lot of black cultural critics, to protect black artists because of the way that black people in general have been treated historically, especially in America.
But I think with Michael Jackson, there's something else going on.
And it's his biography, it's his story, right?
So he emerges as a five-year-old who's pushed to the front of this group by his father, Joe Jackson, who's a failed musician himself.
