Panel Hears Testimony From Jackson’s Accuser
The 14-year-old boy accusing Michael Jackson of molestation testified Tuesday before the grand jury hearing evidence in the case, a source close to the case said.
The hearing, held under extraordinary secrecy, also included testimony from Jamie Masada, the comedy club owner who first arranged for Jackson and the boy to meet, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Masada would not comment. He had said previously that he promised to introduce the boy to Jackson when the boy was undergoing chemotherapy in 2001.
