General info abt the Michael Jackson cases.

I encourage all to do proper research and study the cases from official sources (court docs, FBI files) and NOT from tabloids/gossip sites.

(Contains clips from True Crime with Aphrodite Jones and Square One)

1993 Allegations; how it began

Evan Chandler, father of Jordan Chandler was a failed screenwriter. He was a divorced and absent father for years when he suddenly became interested in seeing his son after learning that he and his ex wife met MJ by chance

Evan later met MJ on a few occasions. He grew jealous and felt that MJ "stole" his ex wife, and was caught on tape stating his plans to extort him. This was also after MJ refused to help fund Evan's screenwriting career and had cut off contact with him.

Evan Chandler caught in 4K.

"Why did MJ pay the settlement in 1993?"

The video explains why, but there's much more to it.

#MichaelJacksonWasFramed
This was not a payoff. MJ actually had many chances to pay Evan way before the allegations went public. Initially, MJ didn't want to pay anything at all. He wanted to go through the criminal trial and do whatever he needed to do to prove his innocence.

#MichaelJacksonWasFramed
Back then, a civil trial was allowed to precede a criminal trial. MJ wanted a criminal trial to prove his innocence, however once the Chandler's got their money from the civil trial, they just didn't pursue the criminal trial.

It was always about money.

#MichaelJacksonWasFramed
Due to MJ's case specifically, the law has since been changed so that a civil case cannot precede a criminal case.

Paying the settlement was bad advice. It sent a msg that ppl could sue MJ for a quick payout. He even dealt with paternity suits and plagiarism suits. The 1993 allegations set an example for copycat allegations that followed, which led to the 2005 trial.

A brief background on Janet Arvizo, mother of Gavin Arvizo, the accuser that would be known for putting MJ through a criminal trial in 2005, in which MJ was completely exonerated on all counts. 🕊️

After Michael Jackson's vindication, Janet Arvizo was charged with welfare fraud. However, the media wasn't interested in covering the facts. They continued to spread lies as truth, and painted MJ as a predator.

The media had a lynch mob mentality and condemned him without any evidence. They treated him as if had a guilty verdict.

Anyone who has taken the time to read the court transcripts and has done thorough research on this, knows the only victim was MJ.
