Six TV Celebrities Accused Of Molestation

Popularly called the “King of Pop”, the late Michael Jackson was faced with several allegations of molestation when he was still alive. The first one came in 1993 when police investigated him for allegations of sexually exploiting a young boy but could find no incriminating evidence. Then again he had a mega accusation scandal in 2005 which degenerated into big media fracas and an eventual court case. He was eventually got acquitted before he eventually died in 2009.

However, a recent documentary titled “Leaving Neverland” which aired on HBO has leveled fresh molestation accusations at the late pop star. Although Jackson’s family and The Jackson Estate have vehemently condemned the accusations, labeling the two-hour film as “yet another lurid production in an outrageous and pathetic attempt to exploit and cash in on Micheal Jackson”, there have been several reactions trailing the video; some radio stations have even stopped playing his songs. As we watch how the drama concerning these new allegations unfolds, let’s take a look at 6 TV celebrities that have been accused of molestation.
