The judge has cut the case that James Safechuck revived at the beginning of this year, reports TMZ Wednesday. Safechuck is one of the men who claims to have been abused by Michael Jackson as a child. According to the judge, he was unable to provide evidence.
Safechuck and Wade Robson, who are featured in the documentary Leaving Neverland, were able to file a civil lawsuit against a third party thanks to a new law in the state of California.
According to Safechuck, this party, in this case MJJ Productions and MJJ Ventures, should have known that abuse was taking place and should have intervened.
According to the judge, Safechuck was unable to demonstrate that the two companies were legally obliged to monitor the singer’s behavior. The court found that Jackson was at the head of these companies and so there were no senior figures who could have observed the performer’s behavior.
According to Safechuck, the employees of the company had a supervisory role at the time, but the judge finds that he cannot prove this.
Robson testified in favor of Jackson in 1993 and 2005 and denied any abuse. In 2013, however, he went to court to indict the singer. His complaint was declared inadmissible because of his previous testimony.
Safechuck also went to court in 2014, but his case was dismissed a year later. In the HBO documentary Leaving Neverland they spoke at length about the alleged abuse.
