Michael Jackson Legal Update: Molestation Accuser Wade Robson Says Paris Jackson's Father 'Brainwashed' Him

The most recent accuser to sue Michael Jackson and his estate on the charges of child molestation reported that the pop star brainwashed him during the 2005 trials against Jackson. Wade Robson, now 30 years old, said that Jackson pressured him into not testifying against the performer eight years ago. 

E! News reports that it has gained access to the legal papers filed against Jackson by Robson. They report that many of the charges have been redacted, but that a significant amount of the story remains. 

Robson claims that Jackson's sexual abuse began when he was 7 year-old in 1990 when the boy was invited to spend the night at the Neverland Ranch. Robson says that the pop star prepped him as a child to make sure he wouldn't tell his story.  

 "We can never tell anyone what we are doing," Robson reports Jackson told him. "People are ignorant and they would never understand that we love each other and this is how we show it."

Although nothing has ever been proven between Robson and Jackson, a former staff member at the Jackson estate claims to have witnessed the two in the shower together. Robson also said that Jackson contacted him before the trials in 2005 in order to pressure his testimony. "They are just trying to take us down, take away my power, take away our careers," Robson claims Jackson to have said.  

Robson was 22 at the time of the 2005 trial. Howard Weitzman, the lawyer for the Jackson estate, released a statement on Robson's accusations. 

"Mr. Robson has adamantly denied under oath and in numerous interviews over the past 20 years that Michael Jackson ever did anything inappropriate to him," Weitzman said. "He now wants us to believe that he committed perjury at least twice and has been lying to anyone and everyone about Mr. Jackson since the early '90s so he can file a claim for money. Mr. Robson's transparent lawsuit comes nearly four years after Michael passed. His claim is outrageous and sad."
