Comedian tells of 'frightened' call from Jackson accuser's mother
A comedian who gave €16,000 to the family of the boy now accusing Michael Jackson of sexual abuse told a court she received a tearful phone call from the boy’s mother that led her to believe the family was being held against its will.
Louise Palanker told the Santa Maria, California, court that she tried to get in touch with the mother after seeing Martin Bashir’s TV documentary, Living With Michael Jackson, in which Jackson and his accuser held hands and Jackson acknowledged letting children sleep in his bed.
