Jackson jury sees tape of accuser's talk with investigators
The accuser in Michael Jackson’s child molestation trial returned to the courtroom on videotape today as prosecutors showed jurors a 2003 interview in which the boy first told authorities of his allegations against the singer.
Prosecutors at the court in Santa Maria, California played the tape after Superior Court Judge Rodney Melville instructed jurors “only to observe the demeanour, manner and attitude of the witness” and said Gavin Arvizo’s “statements are not to be considered for the truth of the matter stated”.
