Speaking to the New York Post’s Page Six, a music video producer and director who worked with pop icon Michael Jackson as far back as filming Jackson’s “Dangerous” tour in 1992 along with collaborating on other projects said he finds the accusations made by alleged victims of Jackson in the documentary “Leaving Neverland” highly credible, stating that he believed “almost every word” they uttered in the documentary.
Rudi Dolezal, 61, who hails from Austria and has produced 1,000 music videos, 500 documentaries and 500 concert films, according to Page Six, said of “Leaving Neverland,” “I believe almost every word. It’s brilliant work.”
Dolezal said he could understand why the two men in the documentary who accused Jackson of molesting them had previously denied any such molestation occurred. He stated, “Nobody would stop Michael. It’s hard to believe an icon is a con.” He called Jackson “a predator,” adding, “If the Michael Jackson legend is destroyed by this, the person responsible is Michael Jackson — no one else.”
Dolezal explained why he thought Jackson hated his own father; he said Joe Jackson, Michael’s father, admitted the brutal way he taught Michael to increase the speed of his dancing. Dolezal said, “He put the 4-year-old on a hot stovetop barefoot. The way he told it, he was not regretting it. I felt really sorry for Michael.” Dolezal added that Michael Jackson went through extensive plastic surgery so he didn’t resemble his father, concluding, “He hated his father.”
Dolezal told Page Six that Jackson would not allow photographs unless he was performing, and that when Dolezal queried Jackson’s handlers what the reason was, they answered, “On those days, he doesn’t have a nose.” Dolezal explained, that Jackson’s nose had collapsed because Jackson had lost so much cartilage. Dolezal said, “He needed a plastic nose that took hours to put on with putty and makeup.”
According to The Daily Mail, “The response to the documentary has seen radio stations in New Zealand and Canada pulling Jackson songs from the airwaves. Jackson’s family has compared the allegations to a ‘public lynching’ against the singer now that he is not able to defend himself.”
In “Leaving Neverland,” As The Daily Mail reported, James Safechuck, who claimed he was 10 years old when the alleged abuse began, and Wade Robson, who claimed he was seven when he was abused, came forth with allegations that Jackson abused them.
Safechuck was nine years old when he worked with Jackson on a Pepsi commercial, prompting trips around the world with Jackson. In the film, Safechuck, who stated that he kept the brochure about Neverland from when Jackson was debating whether to buy it, said that before Jackson purchased the estate he told the boy the purchase was for him. Safechuck stated, “He said I am going to purchase this house. It’s gonna be yours, like this place is for you.” He added, “Me and Michael would be there a lot together, we would go for like a week at a time.”
Safechuck claimed that Jackson assaulted him at 10 different spots around the property. Safechuck offered some graphic detail of the alleged abuse: “There was kissing and just kind of rubbing on each other and then oral sex and then he would want me to suck on his nipples and he would finish himself.”
Robson described the alleged abuse from Jackson as including “kissing and french kissing, Jackson masturbating while watching Robson naked on all fours like a dog and fondling of genitals with hands and mouth.”
