Michael Jackson who is considered to be the most influential and yet the most controversial artiste of all time, has been accused by a woman of s*xually harrassing her a long time ago.
According to The Sun UK, the woman has accused Michael Jackson of s*xually abusing her when she was 12 before paying her over £700,000 to make her keep quiet.
She has come forward with a collection of some love letters and cheques she claims the late pop icon sent her when she was a child.
One note reads: “Your Valentine’s picture was so original and sweet.
“I love you sooo much also you’re making me love you even more, the more I talk to you. I’m crazy about you”.
The woman, who is now in her forties, has come forward anonymously to file a lawsuit against the Thriller singer.
She claims Jackson began abusing her in 1986 when she and her mum went for a tour of Hayvenhurst mansion — the star’s mock-Tudor mansion.
In another letter filed as evidence in the lawsuit, Jackson allegedly wrote that she “cannot play Monopoly”.
“But I love you and miss you very much”, he is said to have written, before signing off: “All my love, Michael”.
Another creepy note appears to show the star begging for the young girl to come and visit him.
It reads: “Please come and see. Your mother and dad are nice. Bye. I love you soooooo much. M.J”
The alleged victim has also produced a collection of cheques and bank receipts that her lawyers say prove Jackson tried to pay for her silence.
According to TMZ , she claims that when she visited Jackson’s mansion she and her mother were invited into the house to see his “candy area”.
The alleged assault involved him fondling her genitals, kissing her on the mouth and body and s*xual contact.
She is the first female accuser to come forward with s*xual abuse allegations against the singer, who died in 2009.
But she describes herself as being a tomboy when she first met the star in the mid-eighties.
“She kind of looked like a boy so we don’t know if he initially thought she was a boy or not,” her attorney Vince Finaldi with Manly, Stewart & Finaldi told ABC 7 News.
A lawyer representing the Jackson estate told TMZ: “This is yet another attempt to hit the lottery by suing the Estate of Michael Jackson more than seven years after Michael’s death and close to 30 years after these incidents supposedly occurred.
“We believe this claim was created from whole cloth and is without any merit.
“It’s also no coincidence that this woman is represented by the same attorneys involved in two other frivolous claims against the Estate.”
