Wade Robson: Michael Jackson Was a Sexually Abusive Monster and Everyone Knows It

Wade Robson, through his attorney, is elaborating on his recent sexual abuse claim against the late Michael Jackson, who he calls an abusive monster. One who threatened and brainwashed him, no less. Henry Gradstein tells TMZ that Wade Robson , 30, was molested by the King of Pop at Neverland Ranch and his other homes between ages 7 and 14. As for why Wade didn’t come forward until now – and even testified under oath that Michael was innocent, as Jackson’s lawyers pointed out immediately? “Last year, on a career trajectory that was off the charts, he collapsed under the stress and sexual trauma of what had happened to him for seven years as a child.” The attorney adds that Robson carried the weight of long-repressed, emotional “brain washing by a sexual predator until the burden of it all crushed him.” Gradstein says MJ would tell Wade, “If anyone ever finds out about what we did we will go to jail for the rest of our lives … our lives will be ruined forever.”   From Wade’s standpoint, it worked, as he went so far as to lie on the stand during Michael Jackson’s 2005 molestation trial to protect his abuser. Wade was steadfast for years that MJ did NOT molest him, something that is not lost on his attorney, who says it is not Robson’s fault, but rather: “Such intimidation of a child by a sexual predator is tragically characteristic and effective, keeping them quiet about the abuse – often for a lifetime.” “Michael Jackson was a monster and in their hearts every normal person knows it.” Robson filed a creditor’s claim against Michael’s estate earlier this week, alleging that the music icon molested him as a child and asking for damages. Jackson died in 2009 and the deadline for claims against his estate has long passed, but Wade claims his repressed memories should allow an exception. Gradstein says Robson has not asked for a specific sum of money, but that’s clearly what he’s after – justifiably or not – as MJ is no longer here to defend himself. He slammed “the Jackson money machine” which he says is “at it again to keep the truth from coming out.” But he says, “This time it won’t work.” What do you think of Wade Robson’s allegations against MJ?   He’s totally lying and just wants money. It’s probably true and MJ should pay. View Poll »

Jodi Arias Verdict: GUILTY of Murder!

The verdict is in, and Jodi Arias has been found guilty of murder. A jury found that she killed ex Travis Alexander in cold blood. Jordi Arias showed little emotion as the decision was read by a court clerk. As the jurors were polled, each affirming the guilty verdict, she fought back tears. Outside the Arizona courtroom, the gathered crowd cheered. Alexander’s family hugged each other after the verdict was read, a measure of closure at last after a grisly death and a sensational criminal proceeding. The trial now enters a penalty phase, with additional testimony and arguments, to decide if Arias should receive life in prison or the death penalty. The case featured a beautiful photographer who changed her story twice, ultimately claiming self-defense in the death of the man she once loved. Up against her was a bulldog prosecutor determined to prove Arias was a spiteful, jealous ex-girlfriend and vicious murderer, not to mention a pathological liar. “Throughout the whole thing, she has lied,” prosecutor Juan Martinez told the jury last Friday in closing arguments, and clearly, they believed him. Jodi Arias verdict: What do you think?   Guilty! Not Guilty! View Poll »

People Aint Isht: Man Arrested For Beating Girlfriend’s 3-Year-Old Daughter To Death With Belt After She Refused To Do Her ABC’s

Some people should not have kids . Poor sweet child. Man Beats Child To Death With Belt According to The NY Post A man admitted in Bronx court yesterday that he beat his girlfriend’s 3-year-old daughter to death with a belt when she refused to do her ABC’s — a form of discipline they call “pow-pow.” Leon Walters, 25, and girlfriend Sherika Stewart, 22, were slapped with charges of assault and reckless endangerment for the death of Ahyna Louis-Hardy in their Riverdale apartment on Monday. Both admitted that they used a belt on the girl, law-enforcement sources said. Walters’ lawyer said in court that he did not directly cause the child’s death. The couple told cops that in their culture, children get “pow-pow” if they disobey, authorities said yesterday. Ahyna died at Montefiore Hospital with massive bruises all over her body. The death has not yet been ruled a homicide. Pow-pow? Just because your parents beat you like a runaway slave doesn’t mean you do that to your child. Do you think a person experiencing violent beatings as a child makes them more likely to inflict the same pain on their children? Shutterstock Continue reading

Dr. Conrad Murray Today Interview: Don’t Blame Me!

Dr. Conrad Murray is – again – proclaiming innocence when it comes to the death of Michael Jackson, telling Today in a phone interview that he’s not to blame. Murray also says he hopes to practice medicine again some day. Even if he can legally pull that off, we can’t exactly envision the patients lining up … Conrad Murray on Today Speaking with the NBC morning show, Murray did say that he’s sorry Michael Jackson died, but he still says he is in no way responsible for his death. Murray is sticking to his story, which did not play well with a jury in his manslaughter trial, that Michael Jackson killed himself with a fatal dose of Propofol. Conrad is also potentially a key figure in the MJ wrongful death suit , though he has insisted he wants no part of that when it comes to either side. The doc, who’s serving a four-year prison term, says he did not appeal it to shorten his sentence – though he would no doubt take it – but for another reason: So he can restore his medical license and see patients again. Again … we’re all for second chances and all, but … no.

Ballin’ Out Of Control: Chinese Woman Faces Death Penalty For Killing A Man By Crushing His Balls With Her Bare Hands!!

Fellas, we apologize in advance… Chinese Woman Facing Death Penalty For Squeezing A Man’s Balls Until He Died Via NYDailyNews A 42-year-old woman is on trial for allegedly grabbing a man’s genitals after he told her not to park her electric bike in front of his store. He later died from shock, according to reports. “I’ll squeeze it to death, you’ll never have children again,” witnesses reported her as saying as she called on her brother and husband for back-up. The woman, who could face the death penalty if convicted, got into the row – in the Meilan District of Haikou City, Hainan – more than a year ago on April 19, 2012. IBTimes reports that her 41-year-old victim went into a state of shock and died before paramedics could treat him. The final outcome of the trial, it adds, depends largely on the interpretation of the woman’s statement of “squeeze it to death.” Dr Irwin Goldstein, urologist and director of San Diego Sexual Medicine, has previously told Gizmodo it is “quite plausible” the squeeze had killed the man. “Yes, the testicles are exquisitely sensitive to touch and there is a huge release of adrenalin when there is excessive force applied to these organs,” he told the site. He added that it could have brought on a heart attack. Worst way to die EVER! She deserves every volt in the electric chair. Image via Shutterstock

Posthumous Baby Mama Drama: Nate Dogg’s Baby Mama Files Child Support Suit Against His Estate!

REALLY?!?!? According to TMZ reports : Bad time to ask Nate Dogg for child support … he’s dead. A woman named Shereda Williams — one of Nate’s multiple baby mamas — just filed a creditor’s claim against Nate’s estate, claiming it owes her $339,924 in unpaid child-rearing money. The hip-hop legend allegedly was supposed to pay Shereda $4,358 a month, but she claims he never made a single payment. Their child was born in 2006 … Nate passed in 2011. Shereda says the estate of hip-hop’s Hook Man now owes her the outstanding balance, including payments that have accumulated since Nate died. Unfortunately, Nate was pretty short on cash before his death … so it might be a while before she gets paid … possibly an eternity. Aye, aye, aaaay-aye…….you ain’t never gettin’ paid! Image via WENN
