Madonna isn’t joining the “lynch mob” that’s hopping on the Leaving Neverland bandwagon. Instead, she says she hasn’t even watched the documentary.
Madonna hasn’t given the alleged victims’ “tell-all” the time of day. According to her, “people are innocent until proven guilty.” Not the other way around.
As you know, earlier this year, James Safechuck and Wade Robson — the alleged victims in question — claimed Michael Jackson sexually assaulted them as children. The information went viral via the HBO documentary, Leaving Neverland.
The Independent reports: “The Jackson estate called the documentary a ‘public lynching’ and are suing HBO – who co-produced the film with Channel 4 – for $100 million.”
Aligned with the family and estate, Michael’s friend — Madonna — basically says she hasn’t given the documentary her energy.
“I don’t have a lynch-mob mentality, so in my mind, people are innocent until proven guilty,” Madonna mentions. “I’ve had a thousand accusations hurled at me that are not true. So my attitude when people tell me things about people is, ‘Can you prove it?’”
