Michael Jackson's estate sued over child sex trafficking claims

  • On Friday , siblings Frank, Dominic, Marie‑Nicole and Aldo Cascio filed a federal complaint in Los Angeles accusing Michael Jackson's estate and The Michael Jackson Company of child sex trafficking.
  • Their documents describe how Michael Jackson groomed and isolated the Cascios beginning when some were as young as seven or eight, using gifts and abuse methods.
  • Reportedly, the complaint details assaults at Neverland Ranch and Elizabeth Taylor's home in Switzerland, with the Cascios previously defending Jackson during his 2005 trial.
  • A judge has scheduled a follow-up hearing for March 5, as the estate denies the claims and seeks to dismiss the lawsuit, calling it a `desperate money grab`.
  • Their prior legal strategy included filings after Leaving Neverland , with demands of $40 million and $213 million, and past allegations remain part of the record.
