King of Pop’s daughter leaps to her father’s defence after new footage reveals Michael Jackson kept photos of naked children in his Neverland home
Paris Jackson has hit out at criticism of her father after new videos revealed a secret cupboard filled with bizarre items
THE daughter of Michael Jackson has leapt to her father’s defence, describing the King of Pop as “the most pure”.
Paris Jackson hit out at critics of her father after new footage revealed the bizarre items that the pop singer had in his Neverland home.
In a series of tweets, the 18-year-old said her father would continue to be proven innocent despite the footage of a warrant being executed at the pop star’s home in 2003.
Taking to Twitter, the teenager said: “The most pure people are always torn down.. It will continue to be proven that my beloved dad has always been and forever will be innocent.”
She also posted a photo of Jackson sticking up his middle finger and licking it, captioning the image #mood.
Her response comes after new footage of a police warrant revealed Jackson had a signed photograph of Macaulay Culkin, stuffed animals and naked photos hidden in a closet kept closed with three locks.
The secret closet was hidden at the back of the King of Pop’s bedroom and found during the raid of the home in November 2003, involving 70 members of the Santa Barbara County District Attorney’s Office and Sheriff’s Department.
The newly released footage, which shows officers walking past life-sized mannequins of characters like Superman and Lara Croft, gives an insight into Jackson’s life six years before his death.
Paris, who recently hit back at those who had criticised her for not writing a Father’s Day post also encouraged people to ignore the “trash”.
A police report after the raid claimed there were more than half a dozen collections of work that showed boys in their teen years and even younger, fully nude or partially clothed.
Descriptions of the house and its peculiar contents were detailed in court papers at the time after claims were made by a young boy that the singer had sexually abused him on multiple occasions.
The collection of photographs included Taormina Wilhelm Von Gloeden, which was described in court as “Nude photos of teenage boys from late 1800s.”
An arrest warrant for the King of Pop was issued during the investigations with Jackson turning himself into police when he returned to California.
Jackson was accused of several cases of sexual abuse of young boys but was never found guilty.
Jackson was found dead inside his Holmby Hills home in 2009 while preparing for his comeback tour.
