Pop icon Michael Jackson was and is still regarded as a highly influential personality in the music industry. Besides his amazing career, many controversies surrounded him. One of them was that he was a pedophile and used to sexually assault dozens of children. This was claimed by his former maid, who witnessed this herself.
Now as his biopic is in making, director Dan Reed bring backs the allegations of Michael Jackson being a “predatory pedophile” and how the makers of the movie are “whitewashing” his image.

Michael Jackson’s biopic is still a year over away to be released and the director of ‘Leaving Neverland’ Dan Reed says that movie is based on all ‘white lies’. He criticized the movie by saying that they were creating a movie based on only the positive side of Jackson and not showing the true part. Reed claims that he was a p**ophile and used to sexually assault children.
“It’s an out-and-out attempt to completely rewrite the allegations and dismiss them out of hand, and contains complete lies, “You never even see him alone with any boys, when it is a matter of fact that he shared his bed with small children for many years,” Reed told The Times London.
He also mentioned that the draft script excludes any mentions of his assaults and cases of child molestations over the years. “You have some of the really top minds and top talent in Hollywood working on this, and I don’t know how they are not ashamed,” he continued. “In one scene Jackson tucks kids into their sleeping bags—how do they not throw up when they do these scenes?”
Reed, in his documentary titled ‘Leaving Neverland‘, focused on the allegations made by Wade Robson and James Safechuck. The two had claimed that they were sexually assaulted by Jackson.

Michael Jackson is no more but these conspiracies of assault and him being a p**ophile keep coming in. In the documentary ‘Leaving Neverland‘ it was clearly shown that these theories are true. The two living victims among many, Wade Robson and James Safechuck, are enough to partially prove the point. They have been trying to get justice since 2013 through court cases. Even Jackson’s former maid revealed how he recorded the assaults and kept them with him.
