Late king of pop music, Michael Jackson has lost his alleged sex abuse lawsuit since his death in 2009.
His victim, Wade Robson won the legal victory in his lawsuit against the late singer’s companies.
A judge dismissed Robson’s X-rated molestation claims against the singer’s estate back in May, but he subsequently filed an amended complaint against Jackson’s production companies over similar claims of rape.
Lawyers for Jackson’s estate asked Judge Mitchell Beckloff to dismiss the claim against the companies because the statute of limitations had expired.
But in a written ruling, Judge Mitchell Beckloff ruled in favor of Robson. He wrote, “Plaintiff
Wade Robson has alleged sufficient facts of a business environment
connection between him and defendants. Certainly, there are allegations
Michael Jackson sexually abused plaintiff prior to any business
relationship.”
“Defendants arranged for Wade Robson and plaintiff’s mother’s immigration to the United States. Plaintiff’s residency in the United States and involvement with Michael Jackson was facilitated and promoted by defendants. Defendants employed plaintiff and his mother to promote the sexual abuse. The demurrer on the issue of statute of limitations is overruled on the grounds set forth above,” the documents state.
It’s been exactly six years since the death of Michael Jackson; but while the pop king is gone, his music and legacies live on.
