US EditionMichael Jackson Molested Boy at Homes of Elton John, Elizabeth Taylor, Lawsuit Alleges
The lawsuit alleges decades of abuse starting in childhood and seeks to void a 2019 agreement while challenging forced arbitration by Michael Jackson's estate.
- Four Cascio siblings filed a federal lawsuit on Feb. 27 in California alleging child sex trafficking and abuse by Michael Jackson's estate and companies, beginning in the 1990s.
- The 2019 confidential settlement agreement provided five annual payments of approximately $690,000, but the siblings say it was misleading and now seek to void it as coerced.
- The complaint says Jackson's staff helped conceal abuse by booking hotel rooms away from parents and showed children pornography, at Neverland Ranch, Elton John, and Elizabeth Taylor homes.
- The Cascios seek financial damages including potential tripled awards and want the court to void the 2019 agreement and block forced arbitration, while attorney Marty Singer called the suit a 'desperate money grab.'
- Coverage including 'Leaving Neverland' prompted the siblings to shift their public defense after more than 25 years, as the estate previously said it paid lump sums to protect projects and legacy.
