Even after all the strides of the #MeToo movement, we’ve seen example after perturbing example of exposed predators allowed to simply waltz back into their previously exalted place in society—even posthumously. That’s what’s happening with Michael Jackson, at least according to John C. Carpenter, the attorney representing Wade Robson and James Safechuck, who allege that the “Thriller” singer groomed and assaulted them in his Neverland Ranch compound from the ages of 7 and 10, respectively.
” The film, which is closely tied to the Jackson estate, reportedly follows their position that the singer was innocent and a victim of false accusation. Carpenter and his team are requesting a trial before the film is released, but the lawyer recently told The Daily Beast that the chances of that happening are “poor—unless the estate changes their tune.” Still, he’s confident that “the truth will prevail” regardless of any changes in public opinion that the film might inspire.
