MJ Not Innocent
Nobody disputes that Michael Jackson was an extraordinarily gifted entertainer who captivated millions around the world. Yet it is equally impossible to ignore that he was also a deeply unconventional figure.
Throughout his adult life, Jackson failed to form any long‑term romantic relationships with other adults. Instead, he appeared fixated on childlike activities and maintained an intense need to be around unrelated boys. He went to extraordinary lengths to create exclusive, emotionally charged bonds with them—resulting in hundreds, perhaps thousands, of unsupervised days and nights spent alone together, often in his private room and bed.
If a man living in a three‑bedroom semi across the road behaved in this way, few would hesitate to call it inappropriate—if not outright alarming. Yet many fans, whether die‑hard loyalists or simply swept up in the cult of celebrity, refuse to acknowledge the warning signs. They accept Jackson’s oft‑repeated claim that he “never had a childhood”, but this explanation is deeply flawed. At best, it reveals a man who relied on children to meet his own emotional needs. At worst, it points to something far more troubling. Still, many fans will not concede even this. Instead, they insist he was the victim of false allegations designed to extort money, often leaning on misinformation and conspiracy theories to sustain that belief.
In recent years, this defensive posture has not been limited to fans. The Jackson Estate and certain family members have also worked hard to protect what remains a highly lucrative brand.
Back in 1993, when Jordan Chandler accused Jackson, it was easy for many to dismiss the allegations because he stood alone. But that number has grown steadily over the years, with more and more of Jackson’s “special friends” now saying they were abused by him. Even so, those who once defended Jackson—whether as children or adults—are frequently disregarded, as though their earlier loyalty somehow invalidates their later testimony. This reaction ignores the complex realities of grooming, manipulation, and the powerful emotional bonds that can form between an abuser and their victim—bonds that often delay disclosure well into adulthood.
A significant number of people show little interest in examining the allegations at all. They simply shrug and say, “Well, he was found not guilty in 2005, so he must be innocent.” But that is not how the justice system works. A “not guilty” verdict means only that the prosecution failed to meet the high threshold of proving guilt beyond reasonable doubt. It does not confirm innocence—of that case or any others. Anyone who has read the court documents knows they reveal behaviour far removed from the image of an innocent, Peter Pan-like man-child.
Of course, none of us can claim absolute certainty about what happened behind closed doors—except those who were there. But we can examine Jackson’s behaviour, patterns, and choices, and acknowledge that they align far more closely with those of a child predator than with those of an innocent man.
This site exists to document Jackson’s troubling conduct, explore the complex dynamics of abuse and victim response, and challenge the misinformation and conspiracy theories propagated by his defenders—with clear, evidence-based rebuttals.
