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]
