'He Was EXONERATED!' Michael Jackson Documentary Questioned By His Defense Attorney

What was said

"It wasn't until 2004 where I found something very concerning indicating child abuse. I never seen a magazine like that or any person looking at naked children videos with circles to be ordered of the videos."

Vincent Armen, Michael Jackson's crisis publicist from 2002, claims he discovered disturbing materials in 2004 that indicated child abuse. Armen says he confronted Frank Cascio, who allegedly told him it was a phase Jackson went through and that Jackson circled videos to be ordered. Armen testified he brought this information to prosecutors in 2004 and the FBI in 2007, but was never called as a witness because he didn't fit the prosecution's narrative.
