Corey Feldman Needs SUPPORT of Michael Jackson’s Fans

November 18, 2017

COREY FELDMAN’S TRUTH CAMPAIGN

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/corey-feldman-s-truth-campaign#/

Above is a link to Corey Feldman’s truth campaign.

Does Corey need our support?

Absolutely. He needs the support of all honest people and of Michael Jackson’s fans in particular.

Besides a planned movie about sex abusers in Hollywood Corey Feldman’s other dream is to open a shelter for children to protect them from abuse.

And Michael Jackson, even when drugged by Murray and being in a half-conscious state, spoke of his dream to build a children’s hospital with the money due to him for his last tour. So no matter what MJ’s haters say, Michael and Corey were completely at one when it came to the protection of the most innocent and young – and Michael Jackson’s supporters are the first people to know it.

Fans also owe Corey Feldman a separate thank-you for telling the truth about Jackson and standing up for him even despite their difference of opinion over other matters. He always spoke of Michael Jackson’s innocence – in 1993 when he was grilled by the Santa Barbara police who did nothing to follow on Corey’s own molesters as they were after Jackson only, in 2013 when he spoke of pedophilia as Hollywood’s biggest problem, and in his current interviews again.

Each time Corey was adamant that Michael Jackson was innocent and that Michael was his safe haven after the ordeal he had experienced at the hands of real abusers.

‘In 1993, I told the Santa Barbara Police Department, when they came to interrogate me about Michael Jackson, when they came to convince me that he was a pedophile. And I said he’s not,’ said Feldman.
‘And I said, “I’ve been molested.” They said, “by who?” I said, “I can give you the names, here they are.” And they said, “that’s not our area. That’s outside of our community.”‘

Personally I am very grateful to Corey for his search for the truth and his refusal to play along with anti-Jackson media and biased prosecution. He resisted to jump on the bandwagon at the time when it was really lucrative to make false allegations against Jackson, both career and moneywise.  All those innuendos about Jackson have long been and unfortunately still are the easiest and surest way to make the news, a name for oneself and at times even a fortune.

Despite this trend somewhat slowing down, it is nevertheless still there. Only yesterday I was shocked to see that the BBC piece called “This day in history” showed its viewers the footage of handcuffed Michael Jackson entering a police department and “turning himself in to authorities on this day in 2003”.

Mentioning this outrageous episode in the world’s history would have been okay if they had also mentioned Michael Jackson’s full acquittal on all charges or at least said that there was no need for those handcuffs as he turned up at the police on his own. But none of it was said and the picture of handcuffed Jackson was evidently shown to place his name in today’s context of rampant sexual abuse in the entertainment business and put him on a par with Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey.

Dear media, you should be ashamed of your consistent desire to implicate Michael in the crimes committed by others. Michael Jackson was not one of these people and the very fact that you (the media), law enforcement and the public were for decades preoccupied only with Jackson, ignoring complaints of the real victims and thus giving real predators a free hand to do whatever they liked, is actually the best proof that Michael was INNOCENT.

The stark contrast in the way Michael Jackson and real predators were treated is truly astounding.

The more news of past sex abuse by others is streaming now, the more obvious it becomes that all that artificial hysteria around Michael Jackson was simply a trick to pool the wool over people’s eyes and deflect attention from the real problem.

Harvey Weinstein: “The Times had a deal with us that they would tell us about the people they had on the record in the story, …but they didn’t live up to the bargain.”

And considering the revelations about the enormous power real abusers had over the media in respect of what could be published and what should be suppressed (see Weinstein’s own revelations about it or Ronan Farrow’s report about Weinstein’s army of spies), it looks more than plausible that the media was in some kind of cahoots with these players to hide their deeds behind the smoke screen of talking about Jackson and focusing on his fabricated sins.

Indeed, if Harvey Weinstein could “gut” the New York Times story about his misdeeds back in 2004 after he visited the paper “to make his displeasure known” and the story appeared only thirteen years later in 2017, why couldn’t similar personalities suppress unwanted information about themselves and press on the media sensational lies about Jackson instead?

And the biggest cynicism of this set-up was that the modus operandi typical for those guys was falsely attributed to the innocent Jackson.

How many times have you heard about the “power” of Jackson allegedly used to silence his “victims”?  Or about the “terror” the poor things allegedly experienced at the hands of a man who was in fact utterly humiliated, shamed and terrorized himself?

Well, it is only now that we are surprised to learn that all that “enforced code of silence”, “numerous hush-ups” and “fear of retaliation” trumpeted about Jackson was actually a blueprint from the usual practices of Harvey Weinstein and Kevin Spacey – with the big difference that all of their fun went unnoticed for decades though practised quite openly and in plain sight.

In other words what was done by others was said about Michael Jackson – and even looked believable as it was indeed a replica of the well-known behavior typical for Hollywood. The only difference was that their misdeeds were covered by silence and were replaced by a thundering noise about Jackson. Indeed, Hollywood knows how to protect its own…

If people give the matter a slight thought they will realize that all those claims about Michael were utterly ridiculous.

What “code of silence” could they talk of if Jackson’s disgruntled employees marched in bunches to the media to badmouth their former employer?

Where could they find any “hushed up” stories if each new lie about Jackson immediately made it into the news and was thoroughly dissected there?

What does “fear” have to do with it if all those con artists impersonating “witnesses” and “victims” were standing in line to the media to have their stories told and participate in numerous anti-Jackson shows? Remember Ray Chandler making rounds on TV talking of his “fear” of Michael Jackson and happily promoting a book of his lies on the eve of Jackson’s trial? Or a more recent example of Wade Robson who likes speaking of his alleged “terror” with a vague smile on his face and a nonchalant shrug of his shoulders?

What fear really looks like is what we now see on Corey Feldman’s determined, but strained face.

Though speaking up against pedophiles in Hollywood and naming names Corey Feldman is definitely afraid for himself and especially his loved ones.

But why is he afraid if the names he already disclosed are not the highest profile people in Hollywood and some of them have already been tried and jailed for sexual crimes against children?

Martin Weiss, child talent manager

Indeed, Marty Weiss, for example, was sentenced to a year in jail and five years on probation (a pathetic sentence considering that he was charged with 35-40 assaults of a child over a period of three years and admitted several of them).

Jon Grissom, Corey Feldman’s assistant

Corey’s second abuser, his then assistant Jon Grissom was also found guilty of child abuse and served his time in prison. Now he is in violation of the law again as he failed to register as a sex offender and is hiding somewhere in Mexico.

This person is alleged to be Bobby Hoffman, the top casting director at Paramount

The third one, Bob Hoffman was a really powerful figure – he was the top casting director for Paramount. But he died in 1993.

Alphy Hoffman

And it is only the fourth one, Alphy Hoffman, the so-called “son” of Bob Hoffman and actually his lover, who is being named for the first time and has never been convicted.

Alphy Hoffman used to run Alphy’s Soda Pop Club – an invite-only disco club which was the hottest place in Hollywood for underage actors. “Nothing was organized or supervised” there and it is only later that Feldman realized that the club had a network of paedophiles operating in plain sight as agents and talent managers who were supposed to assist those kids.

But the question still remains – if Corey’s molesters are not that bigwig, why is he afraid to name the names?

This is because the problem goes far deeper than the predators Corey Feldman was unfortunate to know personally. The people that came his way are the tip of the iceberg only. All of them must be well-connected and bound by the common past or at least knowledge of it, and if one falls a domino effect may ensue. This must be the reason why Hollywood is so protective of its own and why child abuse there has remained a closely guarded secret for so long.

To them Corey Feldman is a troublemaker who is unwelcome not only for the perpetrators themselves, but also for those who are afraid that “he is damaging an entire industry” – a quote from the esteemed Barbara Walters who scolded Corey Feldman for his news about pedophilia in Hollywood.

Barbara Walters to Corey Feldman: “YOU ARE DAMAGING AN ENTIRE INDUSTRY!”

Corey is right to suspect that the problem is much bigger than he can imagine it to be. He says:

“There’s a lot of darkness in Hollywood right now and I believe it’s been there for quite some time, and as we’ve seen with the Harvey Weinstein scandal, it continues to unfold every day. It’s going to continue unraveling. This is just the beginning, this is just the tip of the iceberg … everything you’re seeing is building up to what I believe is a dam breaking open.” 

“It’s all connected to a bigger, darker power. I don’t know how high up the chain that power goes, but I know that it probably is outside of the film industry too. It’s probably in government; it’s probably throughout the world in different dark aspects.

http://variety.com/2017/tv/news/corey-feldman-today-show-interview-hollywood-pedophiles-1202602210/

As regards his personal fears he says this about one of his abusers:

“There is one in particular that I’m very worried about that is still very powerful, that is a kingpin in the business, that still has ties and connections to all the most powerful people. I know he’s protected by another guy that’s got the same type of connections and same kind of power lines. Yes, there is an eminent threat, and yes, they can have me extinguished if I’m not secure.”

https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/11/corey-feldman-movie-campaign-interview

Corey has no way of knowing the names of all those “others”, but if he doesn’t enjoy full public support, these people may try,  God forbid, to get rid of the troublemaker – to hush up the problem again and silence others who may be willing to speak.

Two trucks that simultaneously came at Feldman on a cross walk at a very high speed soon after he launched his truth anti-pedophilia campaign on October 25th this year, are proof enough that he is indeed taking a huge risk.

The visibly shattered Feldman is talking about this incident in this video:

So irrespective of the future of the movie he is planning to make, he will still need a lot of money to ensure legal and physical protection for himself and his son. The stakes are too high and the people he is challenging are no Michael Jackson.

Michael lost his life in a fight with these people and died a heart-broken, but innocent man. But those who are threatening Corey Feldman now enjoy real power and are actually used to ruining other people’s lives – even if these lives are young, innocent, trusting and helpless. And they have absolutely no qualms about what they do because they are utterly depraved and really, really sick.

There is more to say about these people, especially in contrast to Michael Jackson, but at the moment there is nothing more important than Corey Feldman’s lone fight against this evil.

Here is Corey Feldman’s open letter of November 8, 2017 to his friends in Hollywood and beyond, which is addressed to us too. Corey explains why he decided to launch a crowd-funding campaign and why he wants to tell the truth by means of a movie based on his book.

I’ve added an emphasis to some points in his letter.

Corey Feldman · @Corey_Feldman

 8th Nov 2017 from TwitLonger

AN OPEN LETTER 2 MY FRIENDS IN HOLLYWOOD & BEYOND…

HI #EVERYBODY, I would like to start off by saying THANK U to each and every 1 of U who has taken the time 2 TWEET, RT, post, share, or tell any1, about this very important cause. I’d also LOVE 2 say THANK U to all the loving souls who have visited my #TRUTH campaign: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/corey-feldman-s-truth-campaign#/

AND ACTUALLY MADE DONATIONS! GOD BLESS EACH & EVERY 1 OF U!! 

However there is a bigger picture. As of 2day, I have gained 75,000 new Twitter followers in the past 2 weeks. In total I now have over 135,000 followers. Before I 1st announced this campaign, the numbers of followers had already been rising in great volume.

It seems as soon as the news broke of the Weinstein scandal, people immediately started turning to me for answers. I was both perplexed and dumbfounded by the sudden interest into a story I had been telling for decades. But suddenly and to my surprise, my story began to resonate and began building traction. 

Suddenly people remembered what I had been saying for all those years, and it just started making sense. So within the 1st week of the scandal and by the time I made the 1st statement on it, the followers had already grown by 10k in 1 day. I am very Grateful for that! 

I’m also forever grateful to the likes of Ashley Judd, Alyssa Milano, and the countless other women who came forward not just with stories about Weinstein, but to all of the strong women who came forward around the globe inspired by the #MeToo movement. It is because of your courage, my story has found new hope. This is a courage I pray will spread to the countless adults who were abused as children, and to the children who may have just recently suffered an abuse. 

That said, I also made a battle cry 2 weeks ago sounding the alarms that the war had started, by creating and announcing a well thought plan, to both get the whole truth out, while figuring out a way to protect myself. 

I was immediately blessed, with fire in the action of thousands of followers stepping up and donating to our cause straight away. However the next day things slowed down a bit, presumably out of fear perpetuated by false claims that I “would never give names” and “this is just a long con”. Well I immediately took action. I jumped right in and refuted those claims, by going on both The Today show & the Dr Oz show and publicly admitting the names of 2 abusers. I wanted everyone to know, this wasn’t a game, & I’m not playing. 

However let’s step back & break it down & talk about the “long con” concept for a moment.

So let’s start with the question “why make a film?” Here’s why….I’m a film maker, that is my art, my talent, my strength, & my profession. I want to truly show people what a child experiences when living with abuse from the perspective only someone who has lived with that abuse can make. It is a very important commentary and a brave piece of film making, as there is no one else who can truly capture the essence, of what the experience, of an abused child, who is famous, goes through, in the way that I can.

And as this story must be told once and for all, & as I am the only one who can tell it, I must reveal these very painful memories by reliving them through this process. As a victim, nobody has the right to tell a victim the right way to address these feelings. Nobody can tell me how to heal. I must do this the best way I know how, and this is my choice. 

I also want people who have been burdened with going through life as an abuse victim/survivor that U are not alone. For the 1st time U will recognize that there are many other people who feel exactly the same as U. 

Therefore, I have initialized a crowd funding campaign with the support of my family, and with my wife leading the campaign. Let me be very clear about this. A film maker creating a platform for source revenue via asking for support and finance from fans and followers to make a film is not a new concept, & in my business it is certainly not out of the ordinary. 

In fact it’s now standard practice amongst most independent film makers to use crowd funding platforms as the main source to get the funding to make their projects. Furthermore even studio level films ask the public for additional funds to complete certain aspects. 

When I myself in the past have questioned whether it was ethical for a big production house or small studio to ask the public for finance, I was given a very simple answer by a well known producer. He said “the studios are now using this tool to get the public more involved with projects from the ground up, it gives them a deeper sense of involvement.” 

So with that knowledge I then began looking at asks. It turns out that there are film makers and TV producers and even well known multi millionaire recording artists and celebrities that have asked for anywhere from $250k all the way up to 30Mil from public crowd funding of their various projects. 

But somehow when Corey Feldman uses the very same tool with aspirations to make a film it’s a con? 

Furthermore people have balked at the number saying “it’s greedy”, or “he doesn’t need that much to make the film”. Let me be very clear about this. If 10Mil was the complete budget for the film and only the film, at a studio level it still would be relegated (more than likely) to a straight to DVD movie.

An example, The Lost Boys sequel “The Thirst” was shot with a budget around 7 or 8 Mil. That was a WB film, but made for straight to DVD. 

The film I’m intending to make, will be made with a smaller budget, and will achieve a theatrical release. The way I can achieve it is by forewalling the theatres (renting them out). 

Even if I get the 10 Mil, it couldn’t possibly all go towards the budget of the film. But unless U have spent your life as a film maker U don’t understand the costs or how the $ is dispersed. So let me break it down….

If I used all 10Mil to make the film, it would never go anywhere and likely never be seen. So that’s not an option. As I have previously stated I am planning on producing, & self distributing the film. Which entails, pre production costs, production, & post production. 

Then when U get into the films release, we are talking about a marketing campaign (in the studio system they want 3 times the total budget just for this part) which would include TV and Radio ads, Billboards, & a cohesive marketing strategy with a publicity team, booking all the talk shows and personal appearances, screenings, etc. 

Then U have the actual cost of P & A. For the general public who doesn’t study film costs, this means prints and advertising. There is a hefty price tag that comes along with renting out theater houses, and getting prints of the film made to send to each of those theaters, not to mention the cost of actually transporting those film reels or digital cards depending on the technology of the theater across the country, and with much higher rates for international releases. 

Now let’s put the film aside, & talk about the subject matter, & what I’m up against…..

A legal team to defend cases of slander, defamation, and the like that will indefinitely arise from the direct allegations raised within the films context will likely ask for a retainer upwards of $100,000 and that’s just to open the case. Then the amounts will continue to skyrocket as the well lined pockets of my enemies, will stop at nothing, including hiring spies, publicists, lawyers, and God knows what else to smear my name, shatter my reputation and with any success leave my image as battered and broken as an unstable man who seeks to damage the pristine images of these wealthy and powerful men for personal gain. 

I’m not afraid of their lies, because the #Truth always wins in the end. But without my own team, of lawyers, marketing specialists, publicists, and the like, they would extinguish my fire quite quickly as they have done to so many entertainers before me. 

The more $ U have to work with, the more damage U can do to someone’s public profile. They are very well aware this fact. Additionally, big $ lawyers also have a special way to drag out court proceedings in a way that U are forced to keep your attorneys working around the clock to defend silly allegations, or even just to buy themselves more time to put their defense together. 

The whole system is set up in this way for a reason. Because it keeps people from seeking justice. It keeps the little guys like me, from having the ability to STAND, & fight the good fight. It’s much easier and more cost effective to either dismiss it entirely or settle out of court. Neither of those will bring the justice we all desire. 

Then finally we can discuss the security element. When I say I need protection, I’m not being paranoid, or acting delusional. In fact my concerns are quite valid. Point in case…. After all after all the stories I’ve heard, including the recent release of information that Weinstein hired private spies to prevent this information from becoming public, there has never been a report that he actually threatened many of his accusers with murder.

Well let me be very clear. The man at the end of this bread crumb trail, the coveted name A lister everybody wants to know about has, & does continue to threaten his victims with death. It’s actually his go to statement. Anyone that knows who I am talking about can find multiple court records in which defendants have claimed that they feared for their safety after confronting him. Point blank, he threatens people’s lives and has a history of violent behavior. 

I don’t only fear for myself, I have lived half the life I long for, but if I die on this mission, than that is Gods plan for me, but my son does not deserve this injustice. He should not have to live in fear. He should not feel threatened. But his safety is first. So I must keep him protected. So please keep in mind, even if my life isn’t worth a donation, an innocent child and an innocent woman are also in jeapordy here. Surely they deserve mercy as this isn’t their fight.

To hire security, it costs an average of $7,500 per guy per week, for armed 24 hr security. I’m pretty sure it is illegal to make someone work 24 hrs with no break, and they also cannot work 7 days with no day off. Which means I need a team of security guards to keep myself and my family safe. 

So if U do your own math, and start doing the actual numbers, it is quite easy to see I could never spend 10 Mil on just a movie. The idea would be to spend 6 Mil on the films various production phases, with 2 Mil set aside for marketing and distribution, and 2 Mil set aside for security detail spanning a 2 yr period, and a team of Lawyers to protect me at least until the film is released and can start making a profit. At which point the profit can be used to keep it in the theaters, and keep it from being banned and barred due to legalities.

If the film should do well, and make a large profit, much of the profits will be donated by me, to child rape centers, and abuse shelters. This has long been my dream. Since I was a child I dreamt of creating a safe house for children, maybe the success of this could help that dream become a reality as well.

Can I make it cheaper? Sure. And if I am forced to of course I will. But as an artist, and a visionary who has spent every day of his life in and around film sets and production meetings, I am well aware of the sacrifices I would need to make in the quality of the product I am delivering. Of course I want to make an Amazing film. With great actors, stunning cinematography, compelling musical score, and a visually engaging theater going experience. 

But more importantly this film will finally give the abused masses a voice. This film will educate people in a way no other film can. And by donating $1 or more U are showing the world which side U stand on. It doesn’t take much, to set an example. Let them know U stand with me and will no longer tolerate an industry that turns its back on the children they help raise. U will Pay $20 at the box office, to see a film made by pedos, but won’t contribute $10 to make a film exposing them? Think about that….

This is specifically why I am reaching out to fellow film makers, and Hollywood at large. Because I am quite certain there are other good people, honest men & women who are in my industry, that would care deeply about this issue and want to make a difference. This is why I’m hoping that Producers, Directors, Writers, and film Stars, should be taking action, and lending their talents, services, and financial backing, so we can proudly stand as 1 and show the world that Hollywood isn’t all bad. Stand with me and show that many of us care. Many of us have big hearts. And many of us will stand together to make a difference.

This brings me back to my original point. When I 1st announced this plan, the biggest objection was seemingly the idea that this was some sort of black mail. Detractors started saying I was demanding a pay off for doing the right thing. I was also told by countless supporters that if I were 2 start naming names & show everyone I was serious and this wasn’t about the $, it was in fact about justice, that I would have their support. 

Well we are almost 2 weeks into this campaign. I have publicly outed 2 of the 6 names, with many leads already perculating on #3. That means I have already given up half of the info to the public. I have also again given 100% of the info to the police and an official investigation has been opened. I have left myself wide open to ridicule, which several folks in both MSM & SM have taken advantage of.

Well in my estimation, we are establishing a trust. And that trust works both ways. U told me, if I proved I was sincere and this wasn’t a $ grab, that U would back my campaign and make a donation. Well I have gone above and beyond what any1 expected (including myself) at such an early stage of this campaign. 

But when I look at 136,000 followers, & see only 4,300 donors, I am starting to feel that my support is not substantial. That this trust is only working 1 way. I’m risking my life here. I’m out on a limb. I have everything to lose, & yet all I’m asking, is for each and every follower to simply donate $1! 

But at the end of the day, I truly, deeply, need your support to see this thing through. In the end, I will make work whatever I end up with, as I won’t have a choice by that point. But right now, the choice is yours. Where do U stand?

I’m not asking the average person for a million. Im asking Hollywood to spend the big $ on helping me create this project. But I know this business, & until they see 10’s of thousands of supporters, they won’t even recognize this is happening. However if each of U stood with me now, I truly believe we can change the world! We can start the wheels turning, to initialize a revolution within the film industry, to where everyone will start holding 1 another accountable for their actions.

Please realize this isn’t reality TV, this isn’t a video game, I’m a real live person, and my real life is in danger, & U all have the power 2 save my life. I’m not demanding $1,000 or even $100, or even $10 from any of U except love and support! 

For all the 4,300 who have already donated, I’m not asking for anything more. I appreciate and LOVE each and every 1 of U already. Nothing 2 prove! 

But each of U donating $1 can help my family stay safe, at least long enough to get the #TRUTH out in the open, where it belongs! But more importantly, when U donate U make a statement that U stand on the side of all that is good and pure and just. 

Strength comes in numbers. Remember, this isn’t a war against Hollywood. This is a war against corruption of the highest order because of a few bad people who must be rooted out of the industry. This is the war of Good and Evil! I implore U to stand with me.

Please donate today! 

God Bless us all!

Well, by now Corey Feldman has named two more of his molesters while the LA police department dropped his case as the statute of limitations has long expired. This left Corey Feldman all alone again and prompted him to say on Twitter:

“Maybe now you will believe me when I say I need to do it my way: LAPD Not investigating Corey Feldman’s Abuse Claims”

Yohana Desta of VanityFair.com says that Corey would be willing to drop his movie project if a major legal counsel represents him pro bono, if he has armed security free and if his campaign is supported by the top people in the entertainment industry. However all of it is yet nowhere to be seen in close vicinity.

“At the moment, there are a few things that would convince Feldman to drop his movie campaign and publicly reveal the names on his list: a major legal counsel offering free services, free armed guards, and vocal support from powerful people in the entertainment industry. He doesn’t have any of those yet—but he’s not feeling sorry for himself. “It’s time to heal those old wounds,” he says, “and move forward.”

https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2017/11/corey-feldman-movie-campaign-interview

As to the “vocal support from powerful people in the entertainment industry” I am somewhat skeptical about it – even the most powerful may be unwilling to confront others and rake up this dirt.

But the support of ordinary people who want to protect their innocent ones or at least raise awareness about the problem can be no less powerful than that of Hollywood guys.

I wish Corey Feldman every success possible and am also dreaming of the times when we could watch movies without shuddering at the thought of what is going on behind the scenes…

UPDATED November 22, 2017

I’ve decided to update the post with some of my latest comments.  The first is a transcript of the tape of Sergeant Deborah Linden and Detective Russ Birchim interviewing Corey Feldman in December 1993. Corey was 22 at the time.

Please note that instead of listening to Corey it was them who tried to convince him that Michael was guilty of a “wrong” kind of love.

Here is the partial transcript of that tape:

Voiceover: Cops seemed determined to get Corey to say that he was molested by Michael Jackson.

Corey: “Nothing ever happened with Michael.”

He didn’t molest him, but they didn’t seem to care.

You are listening to an interview between Corey Feldman and Santa Barbara sheriffs obtained exclusively by “Celebrity Justice”, recorded in December 1993. In it Corey says not once, but numerous times that his friend Michael Jackson, whom he hang out with, didn’t do anything improper with him.

Corey: “If there was something that I’d been hiding for all these years, then I would want nothing more than to bring it right now”

Sgt. Linden: “What concerns me about it is that if there is something happening, if something did happen that you’re not telling us, is that you wouldn’t because of that.”

Corey: “No. I can’t put myself in the position of thinking “Would I or wouldn’t I?” because nothing happened!”

Corey told the investigators that he had sleepovers with Jackson. .. He said they checked into a hotel near the amusement park.

Corey: “There was one bed in the room and he asked for a cot to be brought up. He got the cot up there and we talked for a little while until we got tired and he insisted that I slept on the bed and he took the cot because he didn’t feel it was polite for him to take the bed”

But Corey repeatedly insisted to the sceptical cops that nothing happened – not then and not at the time he spent at Jackson’s Encino home.

Corey: “We stayed up all night and talked and did stuff. We prayed together before we went to sleep and he was wearing his pajamas. And I was wearing my pajamas.”

Corey: “We took a jacuzzi… nothing happened.”

Sgt. Linden: “What were you guys wearing?”

Corey: “Bathing suits… I think he had an extra pair of trunks that he threw me”

Corey insists: “He never did anything out of line. I mean, anything… you know. I mean the closest he ever came to touching me was like maybe slapping me on the leg once, you know, talking about that I had lost weight.”

Shockingly, Corey said that he had been molested, but not by Jackson.

Corey: “I myself was molested, so I know what it feels like to go through those feelings and believe me, the person who molested me, if this was him that did that to me, this would be a different story. I would be out there, up front, doing something immediately to have this man given what was due to him.”

Even more shockingly, Corey actually named his alleged abuser but the detectives seemed to express no interest in investigating the man. The cops seemed to only have eyes for Jackson.

Sgt. Linden: “We’ve interviewed a lot of people and we’re still doing that. We have not uncovered things that would clear him right now”

Russ Birchim (at about 5:05): “We hear a lot of stuff about how Michael would never hurt any children. Of course he wouldn’t. He loves kids, he’s not gonna hurt them…not physically. I don’t think if Michael’s molesting kids, he’s doing it because he wants to hurt them. He’s doing it because he loves them.”

The short of the above is that a real victim of molestation insists that Michael never did anything wrong, but they know better and tell him that he did, giving their own “explanation” for what actually never happened.

And here is a small tip on how to tell real child abuse victims from the fake ones set on smearing Jackson.

Please remember that the situation of Gavin Arvizo and Jason Francia “victims” in Michael Jackson’s case was the opposite of that of the real victims who are now fearful to speak against their powerful abusers.

The names of their abusers are unknown.
Their misconduct was never investigated.
If their victim wanted to go on record, the media informed the perpetrator in advance (see Weinstein’s example for that).
The police could easily ignore the complaint (see Corey Feldman’s example).
The story was either hushed up or the victim was threatened with a multi-million lawsuit.
And no one wanted a scandal.

And in Michael Jackson’s case everyone wanted it – the media, public and prosecution.
The so-called victims were met with open arms and applauded by everyone.
And it was those who refused to tell lies about Jackson who were ridiculed and vilified in the press.

So the big difference is that real victims need courage to ACCUSE their abusers.
And in Michael Jackson’s case real courage was required to DEFEND him.

    That money did not help 1 victim – Lynn

    That money did help one victim. This victim is COREY FELDMAN. I personally am amazed that he survived it all and is still fighting his lone fight.

    Sorry but I completely disagree

    Corey Feldman (CF) is the biggest con man in Hollywood Stop making this crowd funding loser into a hero. CF has released two names, and they are those that no longer working in Hollywood. They have no connections. You’ll never hear CF bust a big wig in hopes of returning to film. There’s a reason Haim HATED him.
    Enty & Seth McFarland has opening called out many sex offenders without crowd funding.
    CF conspiracies of being stabbed. And then claiming it’s a shakedown from him being an activist are ludicrous. A ploy.
    1)his own passenger, his own lawyer, and several other witnesses said it was road rage. His own lawyer said Corey is paranoid, which is a lie. He’s feeding conspiracies for more money & attention.
    2) his own passenger said he didn’t see Corey being stabbed.
    3) CF posted Stores on twitter that had the headline “stabbed by knife” AFTER tmz showed him in a hospital gown. Meaning he wanted everyone to think it was a knife knowing himself it wasn’t a knife. CF and his fans thrive off drama. I believe in conspiracies but CF are ridiculous. His fans really are slow and some come off mentally handicapped.
    4) to beat all the most people usually pay for documentaries is exactly how much he raised in gofraudme, $300k. So he spent the gofraudme $$$$$$$ On himself. His legal fees wasn’t a lot.That money did not help 1 victim

    Hi I’m Carolina González. I need help to convince Corey Feldman to sue Santa Barbara Police Department for justice obstruction. They deliberately ignored his allegations when he defended Michael Jackson. That’s a CRIME. I think Corey doesn’t want sue them because he maybe has been threatened by these powerful people, but if Corey does anything who will clean Michael Jackson’s name. He needs our support and celebrities help him in his crusade.

    Corey Feldman spoke about his sexual abuse and he spoke about the current situation and a little bit about Michael. It was good and when the interview finished the panel went WOW and they also mention about how the police didn’t have the cassette and suddenly a couple of weeks they found the cassette,so it’s good that they exposed all these and it feels good when they saying that Michael Jackson saved his life, I just thought I let you know. – Des

    Des, thank you very much. Corey Feldman supports Michael Jackson not because he wants to be ‘liked’ by Michael’s fans, but because he is a person of high moral integrity and a real truth-seeker. We can be sure that if he had something bad to say about MJ he would say it without any reservations. And though at some point Michael stopped his communication with him, Corey’s unwavering support for MJ only adds to my respect for him – even despite their disagreement he keeps telling the innocent truth about Michael. His support is worth a lot.

    I wish you,and all of you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year and stay safe

    I wish you and all people who stand for the truth a blessed holiday too and a very happy New Year!

    I believe you. I know that the SB sheriff’s office wanted to frame Michael Jackson. I worked with the DA in the early 90’s. It was his mission to “get” Michael. You got lost in the shuffle and the accusations follow Michael still, even in death. I hope you can clear his name.

    After Corey Feldman found the tapes back from 1993 he says he has put a lot of pieces together and realizes now where all of it stems from. And the story he is going to tell will not only avenge him and his friend Corey Haim, but will also prove that the 1993 allegations against Michael were a set up.

    He speaks about it in this video, beginning at approximately 12:30:
    https://www.pscp.tv/w/1YqKDLwzvqvKV

    “There’s a lot of people who tried to discredit me, destroy me, destroy my name, destroy my credibility. Well, with everything that happened today some of the really good news is I figured out a lot. I’ve put a lot of pieces together, put the puzzle together, I know where it all stems from and I believe now that if I’m able to tell my story.
    Not only am I going to be able to basically avenge the wrongs of both my best friend and myself. I also believe when the dust settles, this story is also going to exonerate Michael Jackson. Yeah, completely. I think I actually have uncovered a way to get to the truth and prove his innocence once and for all or at least that the entire thing in 1993 was a set up.

    Well, now I really begin to fear for Corey Feldman’s well-being and even life. May God help and protect him.

    Here is a very interesting detail about the way the Santa Barbara police found Corey Feldman’s tape recorded in 1993.

    It turns out that they found it the same day Corey found this tape himself, when he was rummaging through his garage – it was an old cassette given to him by the police as his copy of the interview. As far as I understand he was going to make it public.

    Why Corey Feldman Needs Support And Security Now More Than Ever (excerpts)
    Corey Feldman has been publicly attacked, shamed, made fun of, slandered, and called a liar when he stated that he told authorities in 1993 that he had been sexually abused by multiple people in Hollywood who were connected. He publicly stated that he gave the names of pedophiles to police.
    His story was called false and he endured thousands of messages of hate, online bullying, and attacks. Still, Feldman continued with the call he says is divinely inspired: to expose the darkness of pedophilia with the light of truth.

    Though he has been sharing the same story of his abuse since 1993, no one listened. He appeared on numerous talk shows and stated that he feared retaliation for coming forward. He refused to name members of the pedophile ring without security or the assistance of a lawyer.
    Of every talk show he appeared on within the past 24 years, only one has truly moved forward in a direction that actually showed concern for Corey Feldman: Dr. Oz.
    Dr. Oz listened to Corey and believed him.

    While other journalists argued with him on live television, belittled him, and talked down to him, Dr. Oz not only tracked down members of the pedophile ring and took the legal responsibility of stating their names on television off of Corey and on himself; he also provided Corey Feldman with much-needed security.

    It should be clarified that Corey Feldman never once dangled the names of pedophiles for a $10 million ransom. He never once said, “Give me $10 million or I will let children be abused.”
    What he said was that he was scared for his life and feared the pedophiles who had abused him were connected on different levels. Some were on the lower rung (like the ones he publicly named) and others have enough power to kill him, ruin his life, or set him up in a way that no one will ever believe him if he outs them.

    Now, many people believe that not only was Corey Feldman telling the truth, but that law enforcement agencies may have been involved in covering up crimes.
    It should be stated at this point there is no proof that the 1993 tape Corey Feldman made with the Santa Barabara Police where he named the alleged sexual predators and pedophiles was deliberately withheld or kept hidden.

    But what is known is that it was. For whatever reason, the tape that proved Corey Feldman was a victim of sexual assault was never given to the LAPD where at the time it could have opened a case.
    That mistake has left Corey Feldman in legal bondage where, because of that error, he could not move forward with a case.

    Corey Feldman has repeatedly stated that he needs legal representation before he does anything, such as name the pedophiles, release his copy of the 1993 police tape to the public, or state the names of the pedophiles in his movie.
    He never stated he wanted $10 million to name names. He said he wanted money for security and lawyers so that he could release the names legally in his movie or to the public.

    The timing of events surrounding the appearance of the missing police tape has drawn concern and questions from many who believe Corey Feldman is telling the truth and that his life is in danger.

    The day Corey Feldman found his copy of the police tape and began to have it digitized, the Santa Barbara Police Department went forward with their story that coincidentally, they found their copy of the tape too.

    Now that the tapes have been found and Corey Feldman has stated he will speak to a lawyer about making them public, he needs security now more than ever before.
    It has taken 24 years for the groundwork to be in a place where he can get justice.

    Are you going to join Corey Feldman in his fight, or will Corey’s story be the same as those children who were victimized yet they were blacklisted while the convicted pedophiles enjoyed a long, thriving, and award-winning career?

Maybe there is still hope… December 7, 2017”

    “One more time: the great Dr. OZ has invited me back to his show once again to reveal even more truth and I will reveal for the very first time sections of my actual audio tapes from the 1993 Santa Barbara Police department inverviews about Michael Jackson’s false allegations which I recently discovered in my garage!

    I am really happy that the Santa Barbara sheriffs did find Corey Feldman’s tape where he named his abusers. HE WAS ALWAYS TELLING THE TRUTH.

    Audio Of Corey Feldman Allegedly Naming Sexual Predators In 1993 Has Been Found
    The recording has now been turned over to the Los Angeles Police Department.

    By Jenna Amatulli

    Actor Corey Feldman said he went to law enforcement in 1993 and gave them the names of sexual predators, but the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office said that wasn’t true. Now the California sheriff’s office is saying differently.

    Feldman, 46, has long insisted there are people in Hollywood who are guilty of abusing child actors. He has alleged that actor Jon Grissom and former child talent manager and convicted sex offender Martin Weiss both molested him when he was younger. Feldman said he went to the police in 1993 and nothing happened. Fearful of retaliation, he never went back to the authorities.

    Feldman previously accused actor Jon Grissom and child talent manager Martin Weiss of molesting him.
    Now, the authorities say they have found the tapes from Feldman’s 1993 visit to the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office.

    In a statement first released Tuesday night, Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office public information officer Kelly Hoover wrote:

    “Following the recent inquiries into the Sheriff’s Office interview of Mr. Feldman in 1993, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office conducted an additional review for any stored items remaining from the Michael Jackson investigation. In a container which included the original reports from the investigation, the Sheriff’s Office located some detective working copies of audio recordings made during the investigation. A copy of Mr. Feldman’s interview was located. The recording is being turned over to the Los Angeles Police Department.

    Due to the fact that this case involves the alleged sexual abuse of a child, we are unable to comment further and any documentation or evidence related to this case is exempt from release.”

    Discovery of the tapes comes in the midst of an explosion of sexual predator claims. Ever since film executive Harvey Weinstein was accused of widespread sexual misconduct, the dominos have fallen in quick succession with figures in business, media, Hollywood and politics being called out by victims. Time magazine just named The Silence Breakers, whom the magazine described as “the individuals who set off a national reckoning over the prevalence of sexual harassment,” as its Person of the Year.

    Feldman has been trying to raise $10 million to make a movie about the sexual abuse he experienced within the entertainment industry, with the ultimate goal of exposing more abusers. According to Vanity Fair, he alleged that the people he’s up against are “major power players in Hollywood and beyond. They’ve already tried to tarnish his career — even tried to kill him.”

    HuffPost has reached out to Feldman and the Los Angeles Police Department, but did not immediately receive comment.

    Corey Feldman tweeted a comment:

    “Time to reopen that case @LAPD I did report it within the statute, so now it should be admissible right?”

    Feldman’s Wife Reveals Truth Behind Death Threats and Pedophile Crusade
    B. ALAN ORANGE
    11.30.2017

    It’s been a crazy couple of months for Hollywood in general. Especially this past week. Just as the Harvey Weinstein sexual harassment scandal seemed to be simmering down, the heat was turned up higher than ever, with several big name individuals in the entertainment industry losing their jobs, including Kevin Spacey, Matt Lauer, Charlie Rose and quite a few more. There have been allegations thrown from left to right, and there doesn’t seem to be an end to the parade of names making headlines. In the middle of this tsunami is Corey Feldman, who is on a crusade to out Hollywood’s massive pedophile ring. Given abused children a voice as most of the media is focused on the adult side of this issue.

    Feldman’s wife, whom he’s been with for the past five years, has finally stepped forward to tell her side of the story. She exposes the truth behind Corey Feldman’s recent brush with death, and why Corey quit his tour, which was quite successful and sold out leading up to his arrest in Louisiana. Corey says this about the new video.

    “Hey guys, my wife @CourtneyAnne12 has made a lil vid of her own. She wanted U 2 hear some of her thoughts from the female perspective, please watch: Courtney Feldman speaks: Exclusive Video #PRESERVEINNOCENCE #CoreysTRUTHCampaign #ISTANDWITHCOREY #MeToo.”

    Courtney Anne hasn’t spoken out much, though she was seen on an episode of Celebrity Wife Swap two years ago, which Feldman admits didn’t paint the couple in the best of light. Even at that time, Feldman knew there were nefarious forces at work trying to silence him, and make him look like an eccentric weirdo. He believes that Celebrity Wife Swap was deliberately used as a tool against him. As more truth comes out, it’s evident that Feldman is on the right side of history with his cause. And Courtney helps shed some light on what is actually happening behind the scenes, giving a fresh perspective on it all.

    “Hi, I’m Courtney Feldman. And I’m here to talk to you about what I’ve been through these past couple months. Being Corey’s wife and all. I don’t even really know where to start. It’s been a roller coaster of emotions these past couple of months. One minute I’m on tour, things are going good, I’m doing the keyboards and DJing for our tour with the Angels. And then the next minute we’re in trouble. We got arrested. It was one of the most horrifying and strange experiences of my whole life. It was really silly how this whole thing went down. Basically what happened to us in Louisiana caused a chain reaction of events. The next day we had one of the girls from the band quit. We had no means to go forward. While we’re figuring out what we’re going to do with the rest of the tour, we have a near death experience the next day. That was one of the most terrifying moments of my life, because I thought my husband had been killed. I was walking in front of him when it happened. I didn’t see what happened behind me. I ran across the street as this was happening, and I turned around, and I prayed, and I said, ‘Please God, tell me he is going to be alive.’ I turn around and he is still there. I’m like, ‘Oh, my God, thank you!’ He’s still alive. That happened. Then after that, basically, Corey had a moment of clarity, after his life flashed before his eyes. He decided that he is going to go forward with trying to crusade this whole thing against pedophiles.”

    After detailing the near death experience Corey Feldman and Courtney Anne felt as two trucks barreled towards them, almost killing them on the spot, Courtney reveals that things changed drastically from this point on. And that’s how they have managed to find themselves here, today.

    “To be honest [this] shouldn’t be falling all on his shoulders because there shouldn’t be people who bare witness to such things that do happen, and are extremely terrified to come forward. I don’t blame them, because we’ve been through a lot just having Corey come forward. It’s absolutely insane. It’s hard for the average person to comprehend what we have gone through these past few months. And it does sound crazy. We can’t blame people for thinking, ‘Well, why does Corey need all this money and why does he need to make a movie?’ Why all of a sudden? It really seemed as though it was Divine timing. As if we weren’t meant to go in the direction of finishing our tour with the band. We were instead meant to go on this crusade against pedophiles. Therefore that’s what we went ahead and did. It wasn’t a split decision. We had said lots of prayers. We talked to lots of people. We came to lots of conclusions pretty much as a group, and we decided this was the best way forward. That’s when we went forward. Basically after the near death experience, Corey and I decided to move forward and shoot his first video so he can come forward with all this information. What has happened to him as well as what he’s witnessed. Being a young child in the industry and being exposed to multiple predators who did not have his best interests at heart, and were out to prey on him as a young adolescent teenager.”

    Courtney goes onto share how scared she has been for her life these past couple of months. But she is dedicated to the cause and will continue supporting her husband.

    “For the past two months, we’ve been scared out of our minds. I don’t know if my husband is going to get assassinated tomorrow. I can’t tell you these things, because I’m just a girl. I’m just a human being. I don’t know these things. God knows these things. All I can say is that I support Corey 100%. I have been with him for the past five years. He’s a great person. I wouldn’t be with him if he wasn’t. He is a person of high moral integrity. One of the many reasons I love him is because of that. When people come out and say he’s being greedy, or that he needs $10 million for this film, or why this film, why now? It frustrates me. Because this really wasn’t our choice. This was the choice of the man upstairs if you will. We’re just going with it right now. We’re trying to do the very best we can. We thank you for all your support and contributions.”

    Courtney Anne goes onto explain that the plan is to make Corey’s best selling memoir Coreyography into a movie. That has always been the plan. This shouldn’t be confused with the Lifetime movie coming in 2018 called A Tale of Two Coreys.

    An interesting turn in Corey Feldman’s Truth Campaign – he noticed that right at the time when the media seems shocked by the revelations of sex abuse in Hollywood, the same media expresses its admiration for a movie glamorizing pedophilia.

    Feldman Calls Out Armie Hammer’s New Movie for Glamorizing Pedophilia
    KEVIN BURWICK
    11.29.2017


    “Call Me by Your Name” is out in theaters and has a lot of Oscar buzz surrounding it. But Corey Feldman and others are calling out the new movie for glamorizing pedophilia. Rolling Stone magazine has called it the, “most romantic movie of the year,” while the New Yorker calls it an “erotic triumph, emotionally acute and overwhelmingly sensual.” “Call Me by Your Name” is a romantic tale about the awakening of homosexual desire in and between a 24-year old man and a 17- year old teenager whose relationship sparks homoeroticism and flirtation, which then turns romantic and sexual. Does the movie promote pedophilia?

    Actor Corey Feldman, who has started a campaign to stop a Hollywood pedophile ring, called out “Call Me by Your Name” for promoting pedophilia. Feldman responded on Twitter to another user who claims that the movie does not contain “grooming” for pedophilia. Feldman had this to say.

    “Really? Have you seen it? What’s it about then? How do you justify a grown man starting a relationship with someone’s child?”

    Corey Feldman went on to say that the mainstream media is “glamorizing” pedophilia by promoting the movie, claiming that the same publications that call his Truth Campaign nonsense are being hypocritical. Feldman has been hashtagging his social media, “preserve innocence” and one can understand why he might be a little upset about the subject of the movie.

    “Call me By Your Name” takes place in Italy in 1983 where the age of consent was and still is 14-years old, which still brings up strong political debates about whether the consent law is still appropriate. Additionally, the United States has a few areas where the age of consent is 16-years old, which has also seen some controversy over the last 20 years. While the story is controversial from an age standpoint, it has also come out in a time where the general public is seeing news of sexual misconduct come up every day as if it’s a weather report, heightening awareness to scandals that many didn’t even know existed until now.

    After the Harvey Weinstein allegations became public in early October, many men in power have had accusations of sexual misconduct thrown their way. One of the more higher profile and shocking of these stories are the allegations towards actor Kevin Spacey. Spacey has been accused of sexually harassing a 14-year old Anthony Rapp and many other allegations from younger men have been coming out. The public outcry has cost Kevin Spacey his career and many see the release of Call Me by Your Name to be bad timing.

    Actor Armie Hammer has been quick to defend the movie on social media and during interviews, most famously when veteran actor James Woods called the movie out for promoting pedophilia, to which Hammer simply asked him about dating a 19-year old when he was 60. Hammer has also called out people for talking trash on “Call Me by Your Name”, informing them that the age of consent in their state is actually 16-years old. Armie Hammer has since deleted his Twitter account. This is a touchy subject and one can see by both sides why feelings may be hurt.

    Louis C.K., who recently admitted to a number of sexual misconduct allegations, was in the midst of releasing his movie “I Love You Daddy” when news of his bad behavior broke. Netflix, FX and HBO all canceled his projects, removing his currently airing shows from the air. Orchard also dropped “I Love You, Daddy” from release just as it was set to hit select theaters. The movie is similar to that of “Call Me By Your Name”. It also follows the relationship between a 17 year old and a much older man. Only in this case, the 17 year old is a girl, played by Chloe Moretz. Many have scrutinized that storyline as well, perhaps more so than “Call Me By Your Name.” And it is no longer being distributed as planned. Though, Louis C.K. has hinted that he may release it on his own.

    You can check out some of the criticism of “Call Be By Your Name” courtesy of Corey Feldman’s Twitter account. The makers behind the documentary “An Open Secret”, which exposes child sexual abuse in Hollywood has also been slamming the movie for its glorifying pedophilia and grooming techniques. The movie currently has a 98% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes. And is being hailed as an erotic masterpiece.

    People like yourself hurt your cause by ignorantly attacking every single thing without knowing anything. “Call Me By Your Name” is as much about child grooming as “Frankenstein” was about bodily appropriation.

    An update on Corey Feldman’s truth campaign:

    Feldman Refuses to Give Up Pedophile Crusade: It’s Not About Money
    B. ALAN ORANGE11.28.2017

    Corey Feldman has not given up his crusade to expose the Hollywood Pedophile Ring that he claims has consumed the entertainment industry over the past several decades. While he’s faced much scrutiny over his asking price of $10 million for a self-produced and distributed movie that will offer a detailed look into these accusations, he has released a second Truth campaign video where he declares that it’s ‘Not about the Money’, before breaking down his newly updated strategy to keep things afloat.

    The actor looks road weary at this point, and you can’t blame him. He’s done a lot of TV interviews and other press trying to get his story out while people are interested in the sexually deviant side of Hollywood. Sadly, no one in Hollywood has stepped up to the plate to help the actor, who claims he’s long been black listed. It’s surprising at this point that Steven Spielberg, who had a strong working relationship with Feldman when he was around the age of first experiencing abuse, has not said anything. Goonies director Richard Donner has also stayed quite, though it’s known he has a relationship with accused sex offender, X-Men director Bryan Singer. So there is definitely something going on behind the scenes. Which we may learn more about in Corey Feldman’s Truth movie.

    Corey Feldman’s latest update was taped a week ago, but was held from release due to the unexpected death of former teen star and musician David Cassidy, who shared a publicist with Feldman. Corey assures the public that his Truth Campaign is still on track, though some support in his favor has started to waver. The general public has a short attention span, and no matter how important the cause, it’s sometimes hard to keep momentum going.

    Corey Feldman promises to continue giving updates, as well as working with Dr. Oz, who helped the man expose several sexual offenders on his show. Corey Feldman has been speaking out against pedophiles in Hollywood since 2011. He plans to make a permeant change in Hollywood. He doesn’t believe those who harmed him as a child and young teenager were single time offenders. And that there is a powerful chain of pedophiles still running rampant in Hollywood.

    Corey helped launch a secondary petition called Corey’s Law. The petition aims to remove or extend the statute of limitations on child sexual abuse cases. And would allow Corey Feldman’s abusers to be prosecuted in a court of law.

    There has been some confusion about the movie Corey Feldman plans to make, which is confirmed to be a biopic, not a documentary. It will be based on his memoir Coreyography. And it has nothing to do with the 2018 Lifetime movie called The Two Coreys, which follows the trials and tribulations of Corey Feldman and Corey Haim in their younger years, while flash-forwarding to their adult years.

    Corey Feldman’s crowdfunding efforts will help pay for the making and self-distribution of his movie, as well as his much-needed security team and the legal defense team he needs to ensure all the information he has gets out. There have been death threats made against Feldman and his family, and he is in fear for his life every day. The original Truth Campaign has been lowered from $10 million to $1 million, which Feldman believes will be enough to pay for the making of the movie and his lawyers. As the new video lays out, Feldman has also launched a new GoFundMe campaign that will strictly pay for his security detail. You can watch his new video and get all the new details in the video below courtesy of Corey Feldman’s Youtube channel. It has all the links you need if you want to donate your time and money to this cause.

    “Since 2005 around the time Michael’s trial was about to begin, I started not trusting Corey a little bit after he was interviewed by that moron Bashir” – Jordan

    Bashir is notorious for twisting facts and forcing people to answer loaded questions. When someone asks you “Have you stopped beating your wife?” whether the answer is yes or no, each way you admit that you’ve beaten your wife. Bashir is a master of this type of twisted conversation, so whatever Corey Feldman said there the blame should be laid at Bashir’s door.

    “10 years later still lost a little trust in him after what he said in his book stating Michael should give Corey an unexplained apology. I was like “Apology!? For what? Michael had nothing to apologize for”

    As far as I know their ways parted when someone told Michael that Corey was going to write a trash book about him.

    “Sadly, the friendship ended in 2001, when Jackson heard a rumor that Feldman was planning to trash him in a book. Despite Feldman’s adamant denials, Jackson shut him out, and the two never spoke again.” https://nypost.com/2013/10/19/the-childhood-hell-of-the-lost-boys/

    Let us be fair – life itself has proven that Feldman was right and Michael was wrong, though the person really responsible for their break-up was the one who slandered Corey in Michael’s eyes. If Michael were alive and could read what Corey has written about him in his book he would certainly apologize to Corey, no doubt about it.

    “If Corey was to accept the 30 pieces of silver offered then and now and turned on MJ, his fight against his abusers would be accepted with loving embrace.” – Dialdancer

    This bitter statement is unfortunately absolutely correct. Corey Feldman put himself at a big disadvantage and in a way sacrificed his own interests by telling the simple truth about Michael Jackson. Defaming Michael was always a sure ticket to success and a huge temptation for many, which Corey Feldman avoided. Integrity and a clean conscience are the backbone of his character and finding all of it in a man who faced so much dirt when a child inspires nothing less than awe.

    “Do not buy into the attempts to make such stories appear well read. Being a paid Bot or Troll is now an actual career field. We learned you can purchase them for as little as $5.00 per post when the WR FB Page was created.”

    But it would be a mistake to underestimate the influence of these people. If this method weren’t working, they wouldn’t employ it. Unfortunately it does work because not only do they spread lies, but they also often bully others, so that after a couple of attempts at a decent conversation people simply back off leaving the field to these trolls. And once they oust others and establish their reign, all other readers get the impression that since there is no one to disagree, everybody must be sharing their opinion. This is how they artificially form “public opinion” and force it on others.

    “I can tell you that at this point the Tabloid stories are not getting any play with the Mainstream”

    Good news, but still not good enough. The problem is in the number of people who read tabloid papers and those who read the mainstream, and the ratio between the two. The phenomenon of those who are ready to waste their valuable time on reading or listening to obvious lies will baffle and mystify me forever.
    I myself am not above reading some gossip or looking at beautiful photos, but if taken too far this activity invariably leaves me empty and wishing I hadn’t been such a fool to waste my time on it. Nothing gained, nothing learned. Just emptiness inside.

    Dialdancer,

    Pleased to meet you and thank you for your informative comment. You are so correct that Internet trolling now is a job/career field. I have noticed and experienced it first hand (I am Muslim and and a long time MJ fan. Therefore, I along with those close to me have been seeing this “budding” if you will, of internet gas lighting and manipulation on pretty much every topic even movies, for a little over a decade). The fear of it is the tendency for it to work in its impact. In the United States at least (and I know other countries are also suffering the same affliction), facts do not (at least seemingly so) count for a lot anymore and comments sections are a constant and easy exposure. Even so, you are correct it does not seem like other outlets are picking this up, thank God. I am hoping that counter arguments not only with MJ (though definitely I am seeing a lot of them and am cautiously optimistic) but in all topics will start to take more hold because repetition and numbers seems to be the best way to anchor minds.

    I am also starting to see a lot of support for Feldman now as well. Far more than what was given to him in the last six years and hope it continues. I agree with you though, if only those public figures who are coming forward would actually show official support for him it would be very helpful. Nice to meet you, btw! Obviously I have been around here a lot lately because along with my studies (I’m a returning student) I have been following these stories like mad. I guess I better scram now and study lol.

Then later I found out that well known VA (voice actor) Steve Blum demanding an apology from Simmons for sexually harassing fellow VA/friend Mary Elizabeth Glynn (well known also for voice directing many anime like Naruto) and a few other women at a recording studio and then he got blocked by Gene. Typical. Of course retweeted both Steve and Mary which I was a big fan for countless VAs about my hatred towards that ass Gene and still, even for that damned joke about Michael.

    “shared with Weinstein material obtained by one of his reporters, as part of an effort to help Weinstein disprove McGowan’s allegation of rape.” https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/harvey-weinsteins-army-of-spies

    So in Weinstein’s case he was trying to help silence a real victim, and for Michael Jackson the same Dylan Howard is creating fake ones?

    Isn’t it the best proof that at least this media personality has his own agenda as regards Michael Jackson?

    And mind you, Dylan Howard is holding one of the top positions in the media industry.

    “He is currently the vice president of news at American Media, where he holds the roles of editorial director of RadarOnline.com and editor in chief of the National Enquirer. He is a former executive editor of Star magazine, editor in chief of Celebuzz, and worked as an on-air reporter and producer for the Seven Network in Australia.

    RadarOnline is so desperate to smear Michael Jackson that it is even funny. Now they are making a pathetic attempt to try and tie Michael Jackson’s name to the current sex abuse scandal and allege that he abused Corey Haim.

    Julia Berkowitz refutes this lie very easily, just by quoting a piece from Corey Feldman’s “Coreyography”, which makes it clear that Corey Haim simply never met Michael Jackson when he was a kid.

    Haim never met Jackson when he was a kid

    “Over the next several weeks, I made a few informal comments to the press and declared that Michael was innocent of the charges. (I was still living in Encino at the time; the paparazzi often made the two-mintue drive to my house once they’d grown tired of staking out Hayvenhurst.) Michael was appreciative that I had spoken out on his behalf, and as a thank-you several months after he settled the case out of court he invited me up to Neverland Ranch.
    I took Corey Haim with me, since he had never actually had an opportunity to meet Michael face-to-face. We rode go-karts. We giggled as Michael told us stories about Madonna, his date to the 1991 Academy Awards. (I think she intended to make a man out of him, but Michael wasn’t ready for all that.) We ordered movies to watch in his theatre. Together, the three of us screened Dream a Little Dream.”

    Not to confuse real child abuse victims with fake ones, please remember that the situation of Gavin Arvizo and Jason Francia “victims” in Michael Jackson’s case was the opposite of that of real victims who are now fearful to speak against their powerful abusers.

    The names of their abusers are unknown.
    Their misconduct was never investigated.
    If their victim wanted to go on record, the media informed the perpetrator in advance (see Weinstein’s example for that).
    The police could easily ignore the complaint (see Corey Feldman’s example).
    The story was either hushed up or the victim was threatened with a multi-million lawsuit.
    And no one wanted a scandal.

    And in Michael Jackson’s case everyone wanted it – the media, public and prosecution.
    The so-called victims were met with open arms and applauded by everyone.
    And it was those who refused to tell lies about Jackson who were ridiculed and vilified in the press.

    So the big difference is that real victims need courage to ACCUSE their abusers.
    And in Michael Jackson’s case real courage was required to DEFEND him.

    P.S. I’ve updated the post with the above comment and included there the partial transcript of Corey Feldman’s December 1993 interview with Sergeant Deborah Linden and Detective Russ Birchim.

This inattention is what bothers Corey Feldman too. Also I hope all the women of “Black lives matter”get to know this story from LA.

    The idea to insure oneself and the family is not bad, however besides a possibly high cost of the insurance it doesn’t guarantee to Corey and his son any protection.

    A much better protection would be wide media coverage of child abuse in Hollywood and elsewhere so that the perpetrators are too fearful to strike back. And the best way out would be to have other child abuse victims speak up. There is strength in numbers.

    Though all of them are fearful of naming names and being sued for “libel” of course. This is actually why Corey Feldman wants to make a movie – I suspect that he is not planning to name anyone there, but will just portray these people so that others will guess who they are and he will show the inner workings and scope of this system.

    I will answer you with the words of Nathan Forrest Winters who was abused as a child by Victor Salva, director of the movie where the boy was starring. Salva videotaped the sex act, possessed child porn, pleaded guilty to lewd conduct and procuring a child for pornography, and was sentenced to three years in prison, but served only half of it.

    Victor Silva’s mugshot – he is smiling

    Now, though being a convicted sex offender he continues to work in Hollywood and is allowed to even make jokes in his films about child molestation.

    “Convicted Pedophile Victor Salva Wrote Child Molestation Into ‘Jeepers Creepers 3’
    Sep 28, 2017
    …Salva only served 15 months of his three-year sentence, and he somehow went on to have a career in Hollywood in the years that followed. Disney hired him to direct their supernatural drama Powder, and Salva found his greatest success with Jeepers Creepers, the 2001 horror film that spawned a franchise. The third installment is the latest Jeepers Creepers entry, and apparently Salva’s screenplay includes a molestation backstory for the main character. Addison, played by Gabrielle Haugh, is an 18-year-old whose father made sexual advances on her when she was younger.

    If the idea of a convicted pedophile writing a character who was molested by her father isn’t gross enough, Salva also includes a character in Jeepers Creepers 3 that defends the abusive act. A review of the film by IGN’s Adam Dileo confirms that at some point in the movie a character justifies the molestation by saying, “Can you blame me though? I mean look at her. The heart wants what it wants, am I right?” https://decider.com/2017/09/28/convicted-pedophile-victor-salva-wrote-molestation-into-jeepers-creepers-3/

    In contrast to Silva’s further career in Hollywood his accuser Nathan Forrest Winters was told that he would never work in the industry again.

    Nathan says about it:

    “I was basically black balled for telling the truth. He’s been coddled completely, big names in Hollywood have been backing him throughout the entire process. Seems like there’s an exclusive club and Victor’s part of that club.

    “Would you agree that prior to Michael, Freddie was the most vilified and misunderstood entertainer in the world?”

    Absolutely not. There was no other entertainer in the world who was vilified like Michael Jackson. However if you look for some other martyrs in history you will find some.

    So you can find it; It was by “The Attorney Report”,,Lafayette Films and Nick Broomfield.
    Needless to say this man coerced many women to pose for pornographic pictures, and he and some buddies had quite a shocking collection.

    The best original movie is no longer on youtube.The next best is!Tales of the Grim Sleeper” -“fight censorship on You Tube” # by Attorney Report# Film dir by Nick Broomfield 27.5 2015.
    The murderer had been killing women, over 100 in 25 years, from 1985 to 2010 before arrested and convicted for 10 murders. Lack of evidence for the others, but there are pics. of all women missing or found strangled in South LA or south central(?)There was initially 2 journalists from UK ,but the other did not have the stomach to go through this grisly story.
    This is the best version I could find, there is another in HDTV where the story idsok but very poor quality. The Tales of the.. best version ,lafayette films .released 27.5 2016 is the best.
    There are many fragments, clips, and interviews but the one I mentioned best follows the original and is of good quality.The local woman Pam and a local group of women also contribute. In the end the LAPD took the “prize” for discovering this story, that they had neglected despite cries for help from the community. And the women from the community deserve all the thanks!

    Thank all posters for defending Corey. I have one message for him: Maybe you already have done this. Anyway take an insurance for yourself for accidental or other unnatural damage or (I hope not death) and also insure your family and property. Any insurance company will if so be investigate any damages you may suffer.I understand you have already informed the LAPD that did not seem to take this seriously..You have to take it seriously.Your safety is the No. 1 concern. As long as you survive you will have time for that movie. BTW there is a very good doc. about the neglect of LAPD in regard to a serial killer,it was on you tube. It is called “The Grim Sleeper”. For a decade or more he was at lib to kill women in LA South Center and the doc. was almost accidentally made by 2 UK journalist with cooperation by one or a few women who had paid attention to killed or missing women in their community. It was a candidate for an award ,I dont recall which just now. I will check you tube and report back if the doc. is still there .And also what was that award.

    Luv4hutch,

    To tell you the truth I don’t know that much about Fred Mercury except for Queen. I certainly wouldn’t be surprised nor dispute the claim of him being vilified and bullied by the press as they seem to have a knack for picking on figures for whatever reason they deem as easy targets.

    As for Bryan Singer, he already is back on the radar as the whispers haven’t stopped, Anthony Edwards accusing Gary Goddard of molestation and rape Singer’s name has been cropping up and the actress Jessica Chastain has been calling him along with the actress Evan Rachel Wood who tweeted “Don’t forget Bryan Singer” or something to that effect.

    I am not sure of what impact that would have on his film. I would assume people will atill flock to see it, but I could be wrong.

    Well, I don’t know the specifics, but the DA said that it would cover sexual assault and harassment, thus I assume it covers victimized children. Anyways, what do you think about Bryan Singer directing the Freddie Mercury biopic? Will he come under the microscope again, and if so, what becomes of the film, which Brian and Roger have been trying to get made for almost a decade? Would you agree that prior to Michael, Freddie was the most vilified and misunderstood entertainer in the world?

    Luv4hutch,

    The fact that that the L.A. District Attorney will now open a new tast force for sexual harrassment is welcome news and long overdue. Does it include children who have been preyed upon as well? I wonder if that deserves its own, isolated section.

    So, it appears that after the outing of Harvey Weinstein, Kevin Spacey, James Toback, Louis C.K., and some new people speaking out against Roman Polanski as well as Corey Feldman making an official LAPD report, the L.A. District Attorney is creating a new sexual assault/sexual harassment task force, similar to the U.K.’s Operation Yewtree. In addition, there are now rumblings that Bryan Singer and Gary Goddard will be thrown back into the light, which couldn’t be happening at worse time for Singer, as he is right now directing the long-talked about Freddie Mercury biopic, which of course is the passion project especially for guitarist Brian May and drummer Roger Taylor. What do you think of the fact that Singer was allowed to skate, not just in terms of not facing punishment, but no trial or even settlement of any kind when the accuser withdrew the claims due to discrepancies in his account,, and went on to direct a movie about another public entertainer who was horribly misunderstood and vilified in a way similar to Michael?

    “He was definitely a lover of children however, in the right way the same I am… I love children.” – Juanita

    Juanita, unfortunately Michael’s love for children was gravely misinterpreted. The more he spoke of his love for them, the worse impression it produced – people interpreted his words the way their own minds suggested it and presented it to others as the only possible interpretation.

    Michael never meant any dirt and couldn’t even envisage that others could twist his words into something dirty. It happens when people speak the same language, but their planes of thought are so different that they never cross. And vice versa – when people are a similar kind they know each other’s thoughts even without talking.

    Imagine yourself saying that you love animals and others interpreting it as …. bestiality. What can you do about it? Nothing because you have no power over their way of thinking. And from this point of view Michael served as a mirror for the people surrounding him.

    When Corey Feldman was interviewed in 1993 by Sergeant Deborah Linden and Detective Russ Birchim, instead of listening to Corey it was them who tried to convince him that Michael was guilty of a “wrong” kind of love.

    Here is a partial transcript of that tape: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdITa9Ulx2A

    Voiceover: Cops seemed determined to get Corey to say that he was molested by Michael Jackson.

    Corey: “Nothing ever happened with Michael.”

    He didn’t molest him, but they didn’t seem to care.

    You are listening to an interview between Corey Feldman and Santa Barbara sheriffs obtained exclusively by “Celebrity Justice”, recorded in December 1993. In it Corey says not once, but numerous times that his friend Michael Jackson, whom he hang out with, didn’t do anything improper with him.

    Corey: “If there was something that I’d been hiding for all these years, then I would want nothing more than to bring it right now”

    Sgt. Linden: “What concerns me about it is that if there is something happening, if something did happen that you’re not telling us, is that you wouldn’t because of that.”

    Corey: “No. I can’t put myself in the position of thinking “Would I or wouldn’t I?” because nothing happened!”

    Corey told the investigators that he had sleepovers with Jackson. .. He said they checked into a hotel near the amusement park.

    Corey: “There was one bed in the room and he asked for a cot to be brought up. He got the cot up there and we talked for a little while until we got tired and he insisted that I slept on the bed and he took the cot because he didn’t feel it was polite for him to take the bed”

    But Corey repeatedly insisted to the sceptical cops that nothing happened – not then and not at the time he spent at Jackson’s Encino home.

    Corey: “We stayed up all night and talked and did stuff. We prayed together before we went to sleep and he was wearing his pajamas. And I was wearing my pajamas.”

    Corey: “We took a jacuzzi… nothing happened.”

    Sgt. Linden: “What were you guys wearing?”

    Corey: “Bathing suits… I think he had an extra pair of trunks that he threw me”

    Corey insists: “He never did anything out of line. I mean, anything… you know. I mean the closest he ever came to touching me was like maybe slapping me on the leg once, you know, talking about that I had lost weight.”

    Shockingly, Corey said that he had been molested, but not by Jackson.

    Corey: “I myself was molested, so I know what it feels like to go through those feelings and believe me, the person who molested me, if this was him that did that to me, this would be a different story. I would be out there, up front, doing something immediately to have this man given what was due to him.”

    Even more shockingly, Corey actually named his alleged abuser but the detectives seemed to express no interest in investigating the man. The cops seemed to only have eyes for Jackson.

    Sgt. Linden: “We’ve interviewed a lot of people and we’re still doing that. We have not uncovered things that would clear him right now”

    Russ Birchim (at about 5:05): “We hear a lot of stuff about how Michael would never hurt any children. Of course he wouldn’t. He loves kids, he’s not gonna hurt them…not physically. I don’t think if Michael’s molesting kids, he’s doing it because he wants to hurt them. He’s doing it because he loves them.”

    The short of the above is that Corey Feldman tells them that Michael never did anything wrong, but they know better and tell him that he did, and give their own “explanation” for what actually never happened.

    EXACTLY! This “infotainment” terribly backfired. I hope very much that realizing its harm will be the first step to healing the media. They have forgotten what they were meant for – provide true information and help people think and analyze.

    BYW, this is happening not only in America – what was started by your press has been employed and upgraded by ours in an extremely successful way. The result is truly deplorable.

    Helena,

    Once again thank you so much for breaking Friedman’s article down ( I am surprised he even wrote such a piece considering how much he seemed to reference how terribly the trial was covered) and wholeheartedly agree with you that it shouldn’t be referenced at all. I posted it because I found others talking about it as if there was something to it just last week and figured show it as an example. It is very frustrating that these types of innuendos and suggestions are passed off as reporting and even if some can dismiss this stuff as just celebrity tabloid fluff, the fact of the matter is that when it comes to Michael (and now beyond) it is *these tabloid pieces* that often get referenced as fact. All one has to do is look at what is going on in America and who we elected as President as a result of this kind of engagement. We have been consumed with “infotainment” for so long in our culture that we truly are not able to tell the difference anymore between factual reporting and nonsense.

    Oh, I didn’t know that Anthony Edwards accused Gary Goddard of molestation and that Anthony’s friend was raped by Goddard. This must have changed the course of the poor boys’ lives forever, but it is very good that he is speaking up at last.

    Well, all of it is shaping into a system which is still awaiting to be uncovered.

    As usual, it is rather difficult to differentiate between real fact and groundless accusations. There is a very fine line between the two, but we still need to learn how to tell one from the other, otherwise all of us will be drifting in the fog of lies forever. No one is guaranteed from mistakes here, but I am sure that it IS possible to learn how to distinguish the truth from lies.

    Let us take as an example Roger Friedman’s article you’ve referenced here. Firstly, it is highly unprofessional for Friedman to draw negative conclusions about Michael from the simple fact that at some point MJ was planning a business project with Prince Al-Waleed of Saudi Arabia also involving Gary Goddard (if this is true at all).

    So what if he is shown in this photo shaking Goddard’s hand? It means nothing.

    If Friedman had dug a little deeper he would have learned that the project was to create theme parks for the promotion of family values. It was to be an educational and family-oriented project, and absolutely not the type of thing Goddard is really into. More details about it here:

    Singer Jackson, Saudi Prince Form Entertainment Company
    The Prince And The Pop Star Say Their New Empire Will Focus On Peace, Love And Family Values.
    March 20, 1996|By Bloomberg News Service

    PARIS — Singer Michael Jackson and Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, a Saudi Arabian billionaire, will form a venture to create a global entertainment empire promoting ”family values.”
    The new company, to be named Kingdom Entertainment, will build theme parks and hotels, produce feature films and animated movies and make recordings, Jackson said.

    The company’s initial project will be to sponsor and manage the American performer’s worldwide HIStory tour. PepsiCo Inc., the U.S. food and beverage company, withdrew its sponsorship of Jackson in 1993 after the artist canceled his Dangerous tour and announced he had a drug problem.
    Neither the prince nor Jackson gave any details of how much each would invest in the company, preferring to stress a common commitment to ”peace and love” and ”finding solutions to the world’s problems.”

    The two said nothing about where their theme parks and hotels will be located or what film projects they have in mind.
    ”Through Kingdom Entertainment, the prince and myself will combine human and financial resources to be successful in all phases of the multimedia revolution,” Jackson said.

    After brief statements, Jackson and Al-Waleed departed and left Al-Waleed’s adviser, Khalid Al-Monsour, to answer questions. Asked how Kingdom Entertainment would differentiate itself from Walt Disney Corp.’s theme parks or the virtual-reality multimedia complexes planned by Japan’s Sega Enterprises Inc., Al-Monsour said the company’s products would be more educational and family-oriented.

    Kingdom Entertainment’s logo, designed by Jackson, is laden with symbolism: A mountain pierced by a sword – representing life’s uphill battle and a ”sword of unity” that cuts through all obstacles, Al-Monsour said. Al-Waleed, grandson of the founder of Saudi Arabia and a nephew of King Fahd, has financial holdings that are worth an estimated $10 billion.

    This is not his first foray into the media industry. He has a small stake in Italy’s Mediaset, the television group owned by former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, and owns 30 percent of the Arab Radio and Television Broadcasting Co. The prince also has 24.6 percent of Euro Disney near Paris.
    http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1996-03-20/business/9603190930_1_monsour-kingdom-entertainment-jackson

    One more point regarding Roger Friedman’s fantasies.

    If Goddard had a hand in this project at all, in 1996 when it was announced, it was just three years after Jordan Chandler had made his allegations, so if Michael had known of Gary Goddard’s “reputation” , he would have run from him without ever looking back – instead of having photos together with him.

    So even if we don’t go any further you will realize that Michael had no idea who Goddard was (actually no one knew), that Michael’s intentions were the opposite of Goddard’s and that this article is simply Friedman’s attempt to make a sensation out of thin air.

    This piece of “journalism” is not even worth mentioning, however I will leave a link to it here – solely for educational purposes.

    Its a shame and a disgrace how the media or whomever wanted you to say the Michael sexually abused you. I thank you for standing up and clarifying that MJ did no such thing to you nor any other child. He was definitely a lover of children however, in the right way the same I am… I love children. They are a blessing from God as we are. Now it stands in this day and time that the Lord is exposing the real abusers beginning from the one person that experienced sexual abuse that had the guts to speak out finally. I am so proud of those that are speaking out now, whether it being a male or female that have been abused sexually by the same sex or the opposite. And for those that wanted you to expose MJ untruthfully gets the chance to see who the real abusers are. We as women and men that have been abused by these sick abusers need to expose every one of them. Even for those that may not be a known celebrity or not… you can imagine how many are abused each and everyday. We all need to stand up firmly and face our abusers and join together as one that has experienced abuse to speak out. After all, its not the victim’s fault because a sick individual felt that they had the right to take advantage of the innocent. “BLESSINGS TO YOU FOR YOUR BRAVERY… I’m 100% behind you!”

    Thank you Helena,

    This post as well as Feldman’s open letter, really said a mouthful. Processing and will re-vist but like you I noticed still some innuendo regarding MJ and it is very annoying. About last week I was looking up Gary Goddard, because the actor Anthony Edwards accused him of rape and I remember you touched on the topic as well in one of your most comprehensive posts (Hollywood predators vs. Michael Jackson) and came across this sub-reddit topic talking about this stupid article linked below…I decided not to link the reddit topic because A). It starts out with a profane word and I know how you feel about profanity and B). I do not want to give it traffic. But if anyone has a reddit account and would like to know the link to address this silly topic, just let me know and I can guide you to it without spelling it all out.

    The article above is only for the purpose of showing how the innuendo is still being used today to smear MJ, *not* to give it traffic. Please feel free to delete if you wish, I will not mind at all.

    Once again thank you so much for this post and Corey Feldman has my full support.
