Vaseline Barred

Following on from the earlier article on this site, about admitting the testimony of the guard Kassim Abdool who was asked to bring vaseline to Michael Jackson, Judge Rodney Melville has ruled that Abdool can only testify about two incidents; and that jurors may not hear any testimony about vaseline.

Abdool, who worked at Neverland between 1991 to 1994, will testify that he once saw Jackson and Jordie Chandler having a Jacuzzi together. He claims that he then saw them go into the men's restroom, with their swimming kit on.

Sneddon, for the prosecution, is quoted as saying:

"After approximately 45 minutes, he saw Jackson and Jordie exit the restroom..He observed Jackson carrying Jordie 'piggyback' style from the restroom to the house. Jackson was wearing a robe or towel around his waist and Jordie a towel-like robe over his body. He could not see whether the child was naked or not."

Adding that when Abdool entered the restroom:

"He observed the floor to be wet and two wet bathing trunks on the ground. The trunks were side by side,".

Abdool will also testify that he once saw Jackson and Jordie embrace, under a Peter Pan display.
