Michael Jackson underage sex collection: The photos of naked teenage boys and 'all-male erotica depicting men and children' detailed in newly released police report from 2003 search of Neverland Ranch
The police report from the 2003 search of Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch has been released
The police report claims that in Jackson's bedroom and bathroom alone there were at least seven collections of work with nude teenage boys
'He also had disgusting and downright shocking images of child torture, adult and child nudity, and sadomasochism,' said one investigator
The report states that many of the materials featuring naked men and women could be used to groom and then molest young children
He was accused of sexually assaulting Gavin Arvizo, a 13-year-old cancer survivor at the time of the alleged incidents
Jackson was acquitted in 2005 on seven felony counts of child molestation and two felony counts of providing an intoxicant to a minor

Michael Jackson was found to have a sizable collection of pornographic material at his Neverland Ranch in 2003 according to police reports cataloging the property following a search of the residence.
Many of these books and videos are also detailed in court papers from the time, submitted after a young boy came forward claiming that he had been sexually abused and assaulted by the singer on multiple occasions.
The police report claims that in Jackson's bedroom and bathroom alone there were at least seven collections of work found by investigators that show boys in their teenage years - and in some cases younger - fully nude or partially clothed.
One of the collections, Taormina Wilhelm Von Gloeden, is described in court papers as: 'Nude photos of teenage boys from late 1800s.'
The search of the home occurred in November of that year while Jackson was in Las Vegas, with 70 members of the Santa Barbara County District Attorney's Office and Sheriff's Department turning up to the residence.
An arrest warrant had been issued at that time as well, and Jackson later turned himself into police when he returned to California.

We can only hope at least SOME of the money went to paying for therapy sessions for those kids.

When he died, a few posters upbraided me for pointedly non-mourning his passing.

That was not my thoughts as a host but my thoughts regarding your question in the OP.

That's all it is but I have a problem with it if the victims are named. They've suffered too much.

So true. I had "trash canned" this thread without reading it, but dug it out to see who posted it.

If his prosecution was mishandled, those responsible need to be held accountable.
