Michael Jackson then allegedly holds the family'his guests'prisoner in Neverland. Michael also admits to and adamantly defends sleeping with boys in his own bed.
Michael is accused of child endangerment or dangling one of his children over the railing of a hotel balcony'for his screaming fans to see.
Michael is arrested on charges of sexually abusing a child (of 14 years of age). Again exonerated, the news of the King of Pop settles to quiet'except, he is on the verge of bankruptcy, may have to sell off his half of the Beatles lyrics, and has moved (or is on an extended visit) to Bahrain, where he is the guest of the royals, with whom his brother Jermaine has been long-time friends.
Now they begin in on Michael's NeverLand. The animals, once a part of an elaborate zoo and circus Michael ran for the children for free, are abandoned, say the rags. PETA is pursuing measures to enlist the U. S. Department of Agriculture (?) to shut down the ranch and re-locate the allegedly neglected animals to legitimate zoos and sanctuaries.
According to PETA spokesperson Lisa Wathne, ''Keeping animals in any enclosure is wrong.'Therefore, the injunction will be to have the animals taken to another enclosure?
Poor Michael Jackson. Or is he, rather, the deluded one who is at it again in the abuse department?Or are those against him overzealous about the hypocrisy and the greed?
