By Bethonie Butler Bethonie Butler Reporter covering television and pop culture Email Bio Follow March 4 at 11:53 AM On Sunday, HBO aired the first half of Dan Reed’s controversial documentary “Leaving Neverland,” which details allegations by two men — James Safechuck and Wade Robson — who say Michael Jackson sexually abused them when they were boys.
Robson eventually joined a dance troupe, which heavily employed his Jackson-esque dance skills. When the troupe traveled to the United States to perform at Disneyland, Robson’s mother, Joy, tracked down Jackson’s assistant, who set up another meeting.The mothers of the two men describe Jackson, who was 29 when he met Robson, as childlike. Jackson would call Safechuck on the phone and also spent time at the family’s home.
Joy Robson said she began to regret her decision to leave her son at Neverland. “I remember being hysterical on the phone at one point, because I couldn’t get through and I couldn’t find him,” she says in the documentary. Robson, who was 7 at the time, said Jackson “made physical contact” with him the first day of his stay at the ranch.

Why did the 2nd Martian UFO quickly return to Mars? ...ans......When hovering over LA the Martians saw a billboard......'Leaving Never Land' !
I stress that this is a precautionary tale for parents and others who believe adults friending with children is normal behavior. It is not.
The whole thing is wrong! Those poor boys
With the principal dead, focus on the enablers: staff, parents, agents, and the Jackson family. Is it just me, or are there no happy endings for kids in showbiz?
I just don't like these kinds of documentaries. I don't cut the legs off of a deceased person. RIP MICHAEL
What's the difference between Michael Jackson and Neil Armstrong? One walked on the Moon and the other had sex with little boys.
I don't think I'm going to be able to watch that show.
this media doesn't mention MJ is black right ? 😎
He diddled kids, he diddled kids, he diddled kids and he diddled kids?
My mom was like who hangs out with kids. I think he was messed up because of his childhood. I don't know.
Lies.
