New Sex Abuse Allegations

In what seems to be a daily ritual, Michael Jackson is now facing yet another legal action.

This time he is facing new child sex abuse allegations in a civil lawsuit.

A 20 year old has filed a claim that Jackson molested him as a child, made him have cosmetic surgery and stole his ideas, melodies and lyrics for songs.

The complainant was interviewed at length before Jackson's trial for sex abuse in Santa Barbara. However, no charges relating to his allegations were made.

Allegedly this is because it was thought that the claims would not stand up in court.

Michael Mattern, the man's lawyer, said:

"It is alleged that my client was present at Michael Jackson's residences and other places from the age of two to 14 and was molested many times over the course of those years.

There is also an allegation that my client came up with song ideas, lyrics and melodies which were used by Mr Jackson in his records and made an awful lot of money
."

Mattern added:

"I have got photos of my client with these red lips just like you see on Mr Jackson and a big old cleft on his chin which he didn't have previously."

The case will be heard at Orange County Superior Court on February 14th, St Valentine's Day.

Jackson To Be Sued by Vet

Now there's a headline I didn't expect to write!

It seems that the veterinarian who cares for Michael Jackson's menagerie of exotic animals at Neverland is going to sue Jackson for unpaid bills.

Martin Dinnes, owner of Dinnes Memorial Veterinary Hospital, alleges that Jackson owes nearly $100K in unpaid bills.

Dinnes helped Jackson build up his collection of flamingoes, giraffes, elephants and orangutans.

I pity the poor animals.
