In 2003, after decades of global fame, Michael Jackson was charged with multiple counts of child molestation. He was later acquitted on all counts but interest in the claims remains to this day.
Before he was charged, detectives had visited his infamous Neverland ranch in search of evidence after 13-year-old Gavin Arvizo accused him of molesting him.
And now, in a new three-part Netflix series documenting the disturbing case, police detectives have shared the disturbing items they found at his sprawling California home.
“When you’re investigating an allegation of child sexual abuse, you rarely have witnesses to it,” prosecutor Ron Zonen said in Michael Jackson: The Verdict, which landed on the streaming platform on 3 June.
“We’re looking for anything we can find that tells us that this child is giving us accurate information,” he added.
