SYTYCD Choreographer Wade Robson Accuses Michael Jackson Of Sex Abuse


Popular So You Think You Can Dance choreographer Wade Robson has accused Michael Jackson of child sex abuse.

The Daily Telegraphreports Wade Robson filed a claim against the late pop stars estate claiming abuse by Michael Jackson. Robson was befriended by Michael Jackson when he was 5 years old.

He used to have sleep overs at his house up until the age of 14. It does look like having the classic elements of grooming around this scenario.

What has stunned people about the claim that Robson in  testimony in the  2005 molestation case against Jackson denied Jackson ever molested him despite Jackson’s former housekeeper testifying she witnessed Jackson in the shower with Robson when the boy was 8 or 9 years old.

Michael Jackson was acquitted on that trial, however he had previous paid an out of court settlement of $22 million to a 13 year old boy who acccused him of sexual abuse.

There are limited details about Robson’s allegations have been sealed by the Probate Court however there is apparently an affadavit by a psychiatrist that treated Robson when he was younger.
As expected Michael Jackson fans have gone bonkers and accussing Wade Robson of being money hungry.
