In 2011, in a second autobiography called Starting Over, La Toya Jackson retracted her allegations against both her brother Michael and her father Joe, saying that she was forced to make them by her husband at the time, whom she accused of being abusive.
“My family and Michael knew that wasn’t really me talking,” the Daily Beast quotes her as saying in an interview. “I never believed for a minute my brother was guilty of anything like that.”>
The Daily Beast reports in 2013 that after very publicly and repeatedly defending Jackson, Robson now says that Jackson sexually molested him for seven years.
Two years later, in May 2015, a judge in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Mitchell L. Beckloff, dismisses Robson’s suit against the estate, saying that he waited too long to file his claim. In December 2017, the same judge dismisses the rest of Robson’s suit, filed against Jackson’s two companies, MJJ Productions and MJJ Ventures, because the two corporations could not be found liable for Jackson’s alleged behavior. Notably, neither of these judgments address the credibility of Robson’s accusations.
James Safechuck files a similar suit against MJJ Productions and MJJ Ventures in 2014, alleging that Jackson abused him on “hundreds” of occasions between 1988 and 1992. Beckloff, who is also the presiding judge in this suit, rejects Safechuck’s suit in June 2017 on the same grounds he gave Robson.>
His sister walked back her accusations citing her husband being abusive to try and get money from Michael’s downfall. The two accusers, AFTER HE DIED, were literally told they had no case. One of them had originally defended MJ.

Honestly, Millionaires are ok for now. It’s the Billionaires that are the real problem. They have way more hoarded wealth. Free Luigi.

Every single allegation was walked back by the accusers, AFTER HE DIED. You are believing a version of a lie.

Don’t do this. Use a dry erase marker. Adding more permanent marker won’t help.
- Comment on Crisco in a Terracotta: Decoding the (Mostly) Useless Candle Meme 1 month ago:
You are misunderstanding the purpose of the different things you are describing. People aren’t using the Crisco candles contained in sand to generate heat. Those are extended use light sources. The use of the terracotta pots placed over a candle or other flame heat source is to capture and re-radiate the heat using the terracotta pot as a larger surface for heat to radiate off of. Larger surface area = more USEFUL heat being radiated towards the people in the room. You are mixing up the ideas here. Which could work if you actually had a useful arrangement for the pot over the Crisco candle.
