The first of the two part documentary Leaving Neverland. which alleges sexual abuse by Michael Jackson, aired on HBO, and it has produced mixed reactions.
Reactions to 'Leaving Neverland' vary. Some say Michael Jackson is a monster, others say film is flawed
The documentary is definitely very one sided, and hard to watch.
There is a website that documents the inaccuracies in the documentary in defense of Jackson:
Facts Don't Lie. People Do.
I'm not sure how I feel. The documentary presents a compelling story certainly, but it comes down to credibility - and there are some giant holes in the story, and some compelling motivations to lie. Abuse victims should always be believed until they give reason not to, and I'm torn here.
