Let's see how well this excerpt from Wade's first public announcement of his now 12-year running civil suit against the estate & MJ companies has aged.

(Spoiler: Not very well at all.) Lauer asks: "Why didn't you go to the lawyers and do this quietly?"

Wade doesn't tell him that he did exactly that initially, but it didn't work: "They are filing the petition to file a civil suit today, in court. They feel very good about this all being done confidentially..."

THREAD: Estate's Opposition

Defense has replied to the "Jane Doe" related motion for a protective order. That motion was filed in August as an effort to prevent the defense from deposing her mom and obtaining records relating to Susan's previously self-withdrawn abuse claims. The underlying justification Susan and her mom used to fight a depo (and record requests) was that her mom was aging and unwell.

Note the hypocrisy in Finaldi's support of this motion, when his firm pursued multiple complete non-parties since 2016 regardless of health condition.

🤣 It's Finaldi's signature as the attorney representing Jane Doe's mom to contest the estate's subpoena and depositions.

Finaldi was also the one responsible for sprinkling Jane Doe's allegations into the mix again via many filings and exhibits since 2017, despite irrelevance. What ever happened to Vince's early retirement? Finaldi told Dan for LN2 that this was the reason he had to replace his entire law firm with Carpenter's. He'd never lie!

All while acting like the estate's requests are somehow more unreasonable than Finaldi's own for many years.

It was not the estate, but Wade and James' attorneys who continued trying to slip unvetted claims by Susan ("Jane Doe") through exhibits and TV specials even 8 years after that case was self-dismissed.

The estate's issuance of subpoenas & depos of her family is a result of that. I suspect Susan was unaware that her bizarre claims were still seeping into the narrative of Wade and James, in an effort to bolster their so-called evidence. Claims that were so poorly drafted and copy/pasted in 2016 that Finaldi even referred to her as a "him" in the complaint.

CONTINUED: Additional observations from Joy's 1994 grand jury testimony, representing the freshest and most raw narrative of events. Not the suddenly "evolving memories" that they would claim post-2012 as part of the claims.

For the first part, refer to:

https://x.com/MJJRepository/status/1911215928181661991

The "shopping sprees" commonly raised to suggest grooming patterns against Wade was just a single shopping trip on their first visit that both Wade and Chantal were part of.

MJ allowed them to buy "toys, records, CDs" as was a common gesture he allowed for all visiting families.

Joy's 94 GJ testimony decimates the post-2012 claims.

- Whole family went on Grand Canyon tour.
- 1st trip was preplanned 1 month regardless of MJ/NL.
- Contact w/ MJ only spawned by Joy (and dad) calling to get his info.
- L.A. Gear paid/arranged next visit, not MJ/companies.

To add:

- MJ's visa sponsorship specific to Wade had "no money associated with it whatsoever." Wade did not actually work for MJ.
- It was Joy's hope to stay in US, not MJ's. (She told 90s media MJ said "follow your heart." Now pretends MJ pressured them and tore family apart.)

Imagine being a self-described journalist in 2025 (@mulkerrins) writing paragraphs about James' "mental tour" through the "sex" he says he had daily at iconic locations around NL.

Without acknowledging the aforementioned train station never existed in his abuse timeline—at all. In another paragraph the author even acknowledges, per James, "the abuse tailed off as Safechuck reached his teens."

This is consistent with his 4 versions of lawsuits where he has their "relationship" tapering off by 1990. Three years before the station began construction.

Today in 04, MJ's defense filed a motion calling out Melville's factual errors in refusing to reduce MJ's egregious $3M bail.

The county max for comparable charges was $435K.

Sneddon: "MJ is no ordinary defendant & the bail schedule does not apply to him."

"Celebrity justice." In the ruling, Melville baselessly suggested MJ had plans to travel to Brazil after sending the Arvizo family there (via hot air balloon?)

Except MJ had no involvement in any of those conversations, nor did he plan to go there.

Melville quoted non-existent remarks in decision.

Summary of the motions last week:

GRANTED: Motion to quash subpoenas seeking body photos etc. This was the most important defense motion.

DENIED: Motion to enforce professional conduct by plaintiffs.

POSTPONED UNTIL OCT. 22 2024: Trial readiness & complex case considerations. RE: Subpoenas

Judge Whitaker noted the prior unsuccessful requests made by Wade/James in 2014-18.

"To the extent Plaintiffs wished to seek relief from that order, they have not done so...subpoenas directly violate that order."

The one exception being the new request to SBCSO.

The Wade/James court hearing tomorrow centers on three agenda items:

1. Trial readiness and tentative scheduling

2. Motion to enforce professional conduct by Wade's attorney(s)

3. Motion to quash four subpoenas to LAPD/SBSO/LADA/SBDA

The context behind each is as follows: RE: Trial Readiness

The defense proposed a trial date of August 17, 2026 to allow 18 months for discovery, depositions, other calendar commitments and pre-trial motions. The plaintiffs did not object.

If honored, both sides will have until fall 2025 to finish major prep work.

From the original 11-page handwritten memo of Jordan's allegations, sold to the media in '93.

"Jordan stated he & Evan met with MJ & attorneys, and confronted him with ALLEGATIONS in AN EFFORT TO MAKE A SETTLEMENT and AVOID A COURT HEARING."

They never wanted court of any kind. This is the same meeting detailed in Ray/Evan's book, where they outright admit to demanding $20M and how, had MJ just paid Evan it, he could've remained unscathed.

Instead, MJ staunchly refused any such demand including Evan's subsequent $1M pleading he sought later that month.

In Wade's suit he depicts himself as a superstar on an unmatched trajectory to fame & fortune if not for the realization of "abuse" in his 30s.

"It is not a question of whether Robson would have [continued to be] successful."

But he was already in major career decline by then. By 2009, Wade openly admitted that he and his wife were depleting all of their time and money attempting to write failed short films and screenplays. Including the one filmed at NL.

"I spend most of my time saying no to jobs, probably to my own demise."

Keller's opening in motion:

"Plaintiffs’ new counsel, John Carpenter, has a problem: no matter which way one cuts it, his clients are inveterate liars... Carpenter has taken to a new tack, to poison the jury pool by making numerous false and misleading statements to the press."

https://twitter.com/andjustice4some/status/1788691921084322020

In illustrating Carpenter's media rounds, she quotes his Daily Mail interview that the biopic "is normalizing very dangerous behavior—sure it will be used by padophiles."

Which is particularly ostensive, considering LN promoted extremely pro-pedophilia normalization throughout.

Keller puts into writing what should had been obvious to everyone since 1993:

"The photos...were the result of a court-ordered search based on a false statement in what became a discredited criminal investigation."

The body search ruined state's case—evidenced by the following: 36 days elapsed from the body search on Dec. 20, 1993 until the time of the civil settlement on Jan. 25, 1994.

At no point in those 36 days did either DA (Garcetti/Sneddon) present the pics/affidavits/Jordan's recorded interview/officer testimony to the court as cause to arrest.

Once again TMZ distorts reality in it's guilt promo over the defense's motion to quash what is now the 3rd attempt since 2013 for the men to get MJ's body pics.

Back in 2013 LAPD itself had already declined the subpoena requests indicating they are exempt from public disclosure. Yes, the defense also filed a motion to quash these subpoenas as part of their own in-depth justifications as to why the request should be court-denied. Just as they did back in 2017-2018.

A hearing has been reserved for June 6 at 8:30 to discuss this motion with the judge.

Several noteworthy observations from Mesereau's "Complex Civil Case Questionnaire" filed this week.

The filing is to argue that these consolidated cases (Wade/James) have "all the hallmarks of a complex case," which is what Judge Whitaker suggested in the Feb. 28 status hearing. Tom estimates 65-75 witnesses for the consolidated civil trial.

By comparison, the 2005 criminal trial saw 144 witnesses from Feb. 28 to June. 3.

The estimate relates to the abuse timespans, complex causes alleged, 30-35+ year gap in making the claims, LN participation & more.

THREAD: Robson/Safechuck Case Status as of February 2024.

As part of the case management hearing this week, the plaintiffs (Wade/James) and defendants (MJJ Productions/MJJ Ventures) submitted written narratives outlining the current state of their cases and anticipated plans. The defense outlined the lengthy history of these matters, dating back to 2013 when Wade filed his estate claim (followed by James in 2014).

Since the men's claims were barred against the estate, they came up with a new theory to go after the companies for compensation instead.

Since the grotesque Dimond-sourced "Think Twice" podcast from a year ago has resurfaced as a featured free item on Apple, here is a repost of my 3-part thread outlining the deceit.

To date, neither host nor their "fact checkers" have addressed any of it.

https://twitter.com/MJJRepository/status/1662590948864409600

When a podcast insists it is not there to convince people of MJ's guilt or innocence, then spends hours regurgitating paid tabloid stories that Dimond further embellishes—without once acknowledging how these claims were demonstrably false under oath—it is purely gaslighting.

THREAD: This should be the mindset of every logical human on the planet:

It's my opinion that men who have repeatedly, undisputedly lied about material facts of their claims both inside & outside of court should not be dignified with a 12TH chance at a "not about money" 🤑 case. Wade claiming in his sworn declaration 10+ YEARS AGO that he had no knowledge of the estate until 2013—purely to circumvent the statutes—whereas 7 undisputed facts proved he had knowledge of it no later than 2011, was not an action done in good faith by a truth-focused person.

June 13, 2005.

"I ask all of you to wait to hear the truth before you label or condemn me—I'll be acquitted and vindicated when the truth is told." -MJ

More than 60 days of testimony. 3+ month trial. 33 hours of jury deliberations. A total vindication.

#MichaelJacksonInnocent COUNT 1 - VERDICT:

We the Jury in the above-entitled case, find the Defendant [Michael Jackson] NOT GUILTY of Conspiracy as charged in Count One of the Indictment.

DATED: 13 June, 2005

SIGNED: Foreperson #80

THREAD: After a disastrous gloss-over of material facts and blatant falsification of others in the Chandler scandal—including the use of Dimond and Francia as defacto sources—did the pay-for podcast fair any better when detailing the Arvizo case?

(Spoiler: Not in the slightest.) It opens by excerpting the overplayed soundbite from LWMJ with Gavin, cutting it just as all the media did in 2003-2005 before MJ and Gavin both confirm MJ slept on the floor.

Also omitting how another adult slept in the room, and the complete context.
