Michael Jackson accusers Wade Robson and James Safechuck shut down in attempt to get singer's criminal file, including nude photos, through subpoenas
’s estate Thursday and blocked an attempt by accusers Wade Robson and James Safechuck to obtain “the entirety of the criminal file” related to “any and all” child molestation allegations made against Jackson in both Santa Barbara County and Los Angeles County going back to the early Nineties. Photographs of Jackson’s nude body and genitalia that were taken by police in connection with a 1993 criminal investigation were part of the rejected request.
Robson, 41, and Safechuck, 46, are inching closer to a possible trial next year centered on their claims that Jackson’s business entities, now controlled by his estate, should be held liable for the singer’s alleged sexual abuse of them while they were prepubescent minors. Robson, a choreographer and director who first sued the estate in May 2013, alleges his abuse started in 1990 and lasted approximately seven years.
It wasn’t immediately clear if Carpenter would seek to appeal Thursday’s ruling and possibly try to craft a new version of the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office subpoena since the 2018 ruling did not involve the SBCSO. Lawyers on both sides did not respond to a request for comment fromJudge Whitaker, meanwhile, ordered the parties back to court in October to discuss setting a trial date.
