MJ abuse claims are ‘the ultimate betrayal’

Sexual abuse allegations made against Michael Jackson by Wade Robson feel like the “ultimate betrayal”, the singer’s nephew says. Taj Jackson says his uncle would be “crying” over the allegations made in the Leaving Neverland documentary.

Wade and another man, James Safechuck, claim they were abused by the singer when they were children. Taj says the allegations are “hurtful” but believes they won’t have a lasting effect on the singer’s legacy.

“I think it’s temporary in terms of the stain. First of all I believe the truth will come out,” he tells Radio 1 Newsbeat.
