Video Messages To Michael: The Untold Story of Neverland
Original at MJJRealRealm
• Sat, May 16
My documentary, “Michael Jackson: The Untold Story of Neverland”, is a positive view of Michael Jackson. As I worked for the MJ defense team during his 2005 trial, I have an insider’s view of the unfounded charges against Michael. You can find a couple of articles about my work for Jackson at Nimmer.net; and MJJRealRealm. The documentary portrays the molestation charges and shows how the jury, and others, found them to be false. The documentary is also an inside look at Neverland which was created as a place for young people to escape their everyday problems and simply enjoy themselves. The documentary also takes a look at Michael’s career and the man behind the headlines. [read the full post]

MJFC Talks To Larry Nimmer 11-4-2009) Filmmaker Larry Nimmer is planning to release a new, positive documentary on Michael Jackson soon. He developed the idea for "Michael Jackson: The Untold Story of Neverland" after having been hired by Michael Jackson's defense team during the child molestation trial in 2005. His task was to film the Neverland Valley Ranch to avoid the jury getting a wrong impression by footage taken by the Sheriff's department during a raid of the estate in 2003. In his documentary Mr. Nimmer investigates the family of the accuser and reveals that they have "anything but a squeaky clean past." Two other culprits that he points out are the media and the Santa Barbara District Attorney's office. [read the full post]
