Michael Jackson’s Boyhood Friend Defends Singer Amid ‘Leaving Neverland’ Claims
This weekend Leaving Neverland was shown at the Sundance Film Festival.
The movie makes a claim of sexual abuse that two men allege they suffered from Michael Jackson.
Brett Barnes, a friend of Michael Jackson who testified at his trial said that while he slept in the bed with Michael nothing sexual ever happened.
The family of Michael Jackson believes the film is “tabloid character assassination.”
The estate for Michael Jackson took issue with the director, Dan Reed. The issue is he did not interview people like Brett Barnes. They feel that by not interviewing people like Brett the viewer is not able to get a balanced view of what happened.
