New HBO documentary 'Leaving Neverland' features two former child actors, now adults, who allege Michael Jackson sexually abused when they were kids. What happens next?
Speed readWho: Michael Jackson, his family and estate, the alleged abuse victims of his abuse, and his fans.
When & where: The 4-hour documentary premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January. The festival director warned attendees before the screening that the film might be upsetting, so mental health professionals were on hand. HBO aired the documentary in two parts on March 3-4, and it has generated strong reactions from Jackson’s family and friends, as well as celebrities and fans.
Various others who knew Jackson have commented, including former child star Corey Feldman, who said although he can no longer defend the pop star, he doesn’t want to judge him either. Other people weighing in are a former nanny to Jackson’s three children, who said “I never saw or experienced anything that led me to suspect that he was capable of child sexual abuse” and various women in Jackson’s life.
PerspectivesJackson’s musical legacy is tarnished — it’s impossible to separate the art from the artist.
