Jermaine Jackson has reportedly stated that the family had a plan in place to help Michael Jackson flee the country in the event that his child molestation charges had led to a guilty verdict. The shocking revelation came forth this week during an interview with the London Times.
Jackson said that the family kept a plane on call that would take Michael to Bahrain. This country was chosen because the nation doesn't have an extradition treaty with the United States. Jackson also says that Michael knew nothing about the plan.
"If they were going to sit and crucify my brother for something that he didn't do, America deserves us not to come back here," Jackson said.
Michael was on trial for child molestation in 2005. This was the second time he'd been accused of the crime, with the first set of accusations occurring in 1993. The first accusation was made by Jordan Chandler, a 13-year old boy. While Chandler and his father wanted to pursue charges against Jackson, the boy's mother insisted that Jackson did nothing wrong.
The second accusation was in 2005 after an ABC News special hosted by Martin Bashir. Bashir used the interviews with Jackson as a career-building move, as he sought to expose Jackson as a man who abuses young children.
Michael was eventually acquitted of all charges.

His family need to chill the f out, Michael is gone and dead. There isn't any coming back. For the love of God, let that man's soul have the peace that he could not have in life. Damn! Besides you don't hear white peoples elite talking about their own family and molestation accusations publicly and they commit the majority of the accusations.
