Wacko Jacko bitterly denies being a child-abusing monster.
“Everyone who knows me will know the truth, which is that my children come first in my life – and that I would never harm any child,” he raged in a statement released yesterday.
His British representative, Stephen Lock, added: “Michael Jackson has never, and would never, treat a child inappropriately or expose them to any harm.”
Jacko – who said he was bombarded with e-mails supporting him after a documentary presenting his bizarre lifestyle and obsession with children aired in London, blasted interviewer Martin Bashir:
“I trusted Martin Bashir to come into my life and that of my family because I wanted the truth to be told,” he said.
“. . . I feel more betrayed than perhaps ever before that someone who had got to know my children, my staff and me, who I let into me heart . . . could then sacrifice the trust I placed in him and produce this terrible and unfair program.”
