Bad : an unprecedented investigation into the Michael Jackson cover-up / by Howard, Dylan,author.;
"He was the King of Pop, a superstar without equal, the idol of millions of young people around the world. But was Michael Jackson also a sexual predator without equal, someone who preyed on the very fans who adored him? Bad is the revelatory untold true story of the strange and larger-than-life career of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop. In the wake of the controversial two-part documentary Leaving Neverland, which told the stories of two young boys who were befriended by the singer and have claimed they suffered years of agonizing abuse, Dylan Howard set out to investigate Jackson's life and death in unprecedented depth, to determine--as one lawyer suggested--that the pop star ran 'the most sophisticated child sexual abuse procurement and facilitation operation the world has known.' After all the highly publicized trials and unfounded accusations, stunning new information has finally come to light: irrefutable evidence that one of the best-known, best-loved figures in the world was a monster behind closed doors--a foul-mouthed, abusive, drug-sodden freak whose deeds and the reasons for those deeds are revealed now for the first time. A dramatic narrative account based on dozens of interviews, Howard shares Jackson's own riveting personal journal--obtained exclusively for this book--interviews with family members, multiple first-person sources--some of whom have asked to remain anonymous--as well as thousands of pages of court documents. Here is Jackson's life story, told for the first time with stories and testimony that will leave you shaken"--Publisher description.
