“We know our brother. Michael wouldn’t do anything like that.”
When he was alive, Jackson denied allegations of sexual abuse against him.
King asked the Jackson family how they could be sure their brother and uncle never did anything untoward when it came to Robson and Safechuck, to which Marlon said, “The facts are public record,” referring to his brother’s trials in the past. “I mean, he testified under oath all the different things he said. Those are the facts.”Prior to making their abuse claims, both Robson and Safechuck defended Jackson against past claims of sexual abuse and said he never behaved inappropriately with them.
Jackson in 2005 when the star faced criminal charges for allegedly molesting a 13-year-old boy. Robson now says he lied under oath to protect Jackson.“We know our brother,” Marlon said. “Michael wouldn’t do anything like that.” The Jacksons expressed dissatisfaction with Dan Reed, the director of the documentary, saying he didn’t reach out to them for comment on the film’s claims.
“He took what they were saying at face value,” Marlon said. “He trusted them — which there’s nothing wrong with that — but you must verify.”“That there were people that Michael did not abuse? … If they’re saying, ‘You should’ve interviewed people who were not abused by Michael Jackson,’ I would ask why, because this is a story about two young men who were abused by Michael Jackson. You can always find people who were not harmed by an individual who has done harm.
