'After Neverland': Wade Robson and Jimmy Safechuck reveal how Michael Jackson groomed them
The release of Dan Reed's 'Leaving Neverland' that focussed on the stories of Wade Robson and Jimmy Safechuck, who claim they were sexually abused by Michael Jackson when they were children, has once again put the spotlight back on the King of Pop's alleged predatory behavior. The documentary has also brought to question Jackson's propensity of having several children around his Neverland mansion at all times, though his estate quickly moved to squash Robson's and Safechuck's allegations, claiming they only featured to make some quick money.
Nonetheless, 'Leaving Neverland' caught the attention of Oprah Winfrey, who had previously highlighted the topic of child sexual abuse in 217 different episodes on her network.
