A Jackson estate lawyer pushed back against a tentative decision to revive previously dismissed lawsuits from two men who allege Jackson abused them as boys.
Safechuck, now 45, said in his suit that he was 9 when he met Jackson while filming a Pepsi commercial. He said Jackson called him often and lavished him with gifts before moving on to a series of incidents of sexual abuse.
The Associated Press does not typically name people who say they were victims of sexual abuse. But Robson and Safechuck have come forward and approved of the use of their identities.The men’s lawsuits have already bounced back from a 2017 dismissal, when a judge threw them out for being beyond the statute of limitations. A new California law that temporarily broadened the scope of sexual abuse cases led the appeals court to restore them.
Steinsapir, who emphasized that the alleged molestations took place in Jackson’s home, not in workplaces, replied, “Could my law firm tell me who I’m allowed to be with in my own home?” Boyer, the plaintiffs’ attorney, responded that “these houses were staffed by Jackson’s employees. They enacted policies and procedures to facilitate Jackson being alone with these children.”
