THE grandmother of the teenage boy in the Michael Jackson trial told yesterday how Neverland affected her family. She said her grandchildren’s personalities had changed when they returned from the singer’s home.
And she claimed that she had to LIE to Jackson’s staff that she was ill to be allowed to see the kids at all.
The woman, who called Jackson “Miguel”, said one of his people brought her grandchildren to her home in Los Angeles.
One grandchild has accused Jackson of molesting him.
His grandmother told the jury: “Those children were not my grandkids. When they came back they didn’t talk to me the same. They were different kids.
“Even up to now he is not the same child.”
Michael Davy, a counsellor, said the boy became disruptive at school after meeting the singer.
Jackson denies molesting him when he was 13, attempted molestation and giving alcohol to a minor.
He also denies conspiracy to commit false imprisonment, extortion and abduction.
Prosecutor Tom Sneddon expects to finish presenting his case to the court in Santa Maria, California, by the end of next week.
Jackson said: “I think it’s going well.”
