Michael Jackson’s former PR agent thinks the singer abuses children

Now removed from the job that once defined his career, Amen says his views hardened after other alleged Jackson victims came forward. He points to James Safechuck and Wade Robson, who detailed abuse claims in Dan Reed’s 2019 film We’re leaving Neverland.

Amen said: “Abuse victims are revealing information about their abuse, piece by piece, over the years.”

The publicist also referenced recent legal filings from the Cascio siblings, which allege decades of grooming and abuse by Jackson and seek to void a 2020 settlement with the Jackson estate.

“When one abuse victim comes forward, others tend to do so,” Amen said. “We’re leaving Neverland changed the Cascios’ minds.”

A source with deep knowledge of Jackson’s world told us, “What makes Amen’s story powerful is that it comes from someone who once helped protect Jackson. His reversal has weight because it is rooted in what he says he saw firsthand.”

Another music industry figure added: “This reframes Michael Jackson’s acquittal in court. It doesn’t change the verdict, but it does change the way history judges the people who supported him.”

Amen insists he has no regrets about the way he handled his Jackson findings. “When I saw something that was concerning, which I believed would indicate child abuse, I did the right thing and came forward,” he said.

But he warned: “There must come a day of reckoning.”
