Pastor admits he denied Jackson molested him

A YOUTH pastor who claims Michael Jackson molested him three times admitted yesterday that he originally denied any wrongdoing to police.

Jason Francia, 24, has told Santa Maria court, California, the pop star abused him three times as a young boy, groping him as they played at his Neverland ranch.

Under cross-examination he revealed in his first interview he told detectives Jackson had not molested him.
