Statement:
“Michael Jackson’s fans, including the Executors of his estate, prefer to remember the wonderful gifts Michael left behind instead of having to once again see his good name dragged through the mud by tabloid trash.
“Everything in these reports, including what the County of Santa Barbara calls ‘content that appears to be obtained off the Internet or through unknown sources’ is false, no doubt timed to the anniversary of Michael’s passing.
“Those who continue to shamelessly exploit Michael via sleazy internet ‘click bait’ ignore that he was acquitted by a jury in 2005 on every one of the 14 salacious charges brought against him in a failed witch hunt.
“Michael remains just as innocent of these smears in death as he was in life even though he isn’t here to defend himself. Enough is enough.”
Michael Jackson’s nephew Taj Jackson – son of Jackson 5 member Tito – also denied the validity of these latest allegations on Twitter on Tuesday.
