Jackson filmed as he abused me
By Carole Aye Muang in Los Angeles
A SECOND youngster has accused Michael Jackson of sex abuse, alleging the
singer FILMED him as he carried out depraved acts.
Daniel Kapon also claims Jackson, 45, is a sadist who revelled in inflicting
pain.
The teenager, now 18, sets out a catalogue of sickening abuse that started
from the age of THREE.
And he makes the detailed accusations in a harrowing 28 minute and 50 second
video as his case is studied by Los Angeles police.
Daniel said he was never taken to Jackson's bedroom to be abused-but to a
chilling bare room without an ounce of comfort.
Camera
He recalled: "I wouldn't be in his bedroom. He'd do the sadistic acts,
sometimes taping it, in a darkly lit room. He'd just be getting his kicks.
"The room had bare walls and had two camera lights and a chair which he'd
make me sit in.
"There might have been a bed too. It was dark.
"I recall a director-type, an older guy with white hair. He would be holding
the video camera and directing, telling Jackson what to do and sometimes
they'd collaborate."
Daniel also alleged Jackson:
DRUGGED him in order to carry out depraved acts.
SWITCHED personality the second he was in private, changing from a charming
companion to a "demon".
And ABUSED him for a total of six years at the star's two palatial homes,
leaving him in turmoil.
The video recording Daniel's claims begins with his chilling words: "I was
abused by Michael Jackson."
The singer already faces trial, possibly in September, accused of abusing
cancer sufferer Gavin Arvizo when the lad was 12. Jackson, who denies all
charges, could be jailed for 74 years on nine charges. Second accuser Daniel
was clearly emotional on the video as he claimed he was filmed being forced
to take part in "grotesque acts".
He added: "It seemed as if he was deriving pleasure from my pain."
Then he claimed Jackson would "be laughing demonically while this was
happening." The youngster, currently in a safe house in Los Angeles, and now
represented by highly respected lawyer Gloria Allred, said that there was
nothing he could do to fight back.
He added: "I had no control over my body but I was still conscious.
"They drugged me. I was given a goblet of red wine. I suspect it had
something in it." And he described the sinister change in Jackson's
personality once he was in private. One minute they might be walking through
grounds of the star's Neverland Ranch in California.
Once inside and out of sight of others, Jackson would turn off the charm
like a tap. Daniel said: "In public, Jackson was charming, but when I was
alone with him he was a freak. His whole demeanour changed. You have to have
a totally whacked-out demeanour to even consider doing the things he's done
to me. He was acting demonic, he was acting crazed. Very sadistic."
At this point, Daniel breaks down and asks to stop filming. When it resumes,
his first words are: "He was verbally abusive, cursing, very crazed for
power."
Daniel went on to describe Jackson's naked body.
He said: "I remember that his whole body was the same colour, very white,
very pale."
The youngster's mother Suzanne says her son was introduced to Jackson by her
estranged husband Danny.
Before long, the child became a regular visitor to Jackson's home in Encino
and was also treated to a special birthday party at Neverland.
Daniel said he suffered abuse ordeals at both places.
He added: "I can remember things as far back as when I was three. I have a
photographic memory.
"I vaguely remember first meeting Jackson-but the things that stick out in
my mind are the sexual acts that occurred with him.
Intimate
"And I remember walking with Jackson on the trail at Neverland and holding
his hand and talking to him. Just chit chat.
"Most of what I remember at around the age of 12 and 13 is just being alone
with him and that other guy and all the sexual acts."
Mum Suzanne, who did not have custody of Daniel, said she had noticed bite
marks on intimate parts of his body.
Asked if he has any pleasant memories of the star, Daniel spits: "Pleasant
memories with Jackson? Only outside Neverland riding the rides."
Suzanne said she discovered her son knew Jackson shortly before his fourth
birthday-when one of the star's songs came on the car radio.
She said: "My son was very agitated and started kicking my radio so that the
knob came off. He told me, 'I don't like that'.
"I said, 'What? It's Michael Jackson'. He said, 'I don't like him'. I said,
'You're talking like you know him'. He said, 'I do' and started crying. I
just flipped out."
LA District Attorney Tom Sneddon has quizzed Daniel and passed a file to
cops. |
