James Safechuck e Dan Reed alertam que cinebiografia de Michael Jackson pode desencadear traumas em vítimas de abuso

James Safechuck, um dos acusadores no documentário Leaving Neverland de 2019, divulgou uma mensagem em apoio a sobreviventes de abuso sexual infantil, advertindo que a promoção da cinebiografia Michael pode causar gatilhos emocionais. O diretor de Leaving Neverland, Dan Reed, criticou o filme. Safechuck e Wade Robson estão processando o espólio de Jackson em 400 milhões de dólares.

James Safechuck, que alegou em Leaving Neverland que Michael Jackson abusou sexualmente dele dos 10 anos até o início da adolescência — uma alegação que Jackson negou enquanto era vivo —, divulgou uma mensagem em vídeo por meio de seu advogado e uma declaração à Rolling Stone conforme a cinebiografia Michael chega aos cinemas. O filme retrata a ascensão de Jackson, incluindo o sucesso da era Thriller. Safechuck alertou que o elogio de Hollywood a supostos agressores, mesmo após acusações públicas, pode retraumatizar sobreviventes, lembrando-os de que não estão sozinhos. O diretor de Leaving Neverland, Dan Reed, também criticou duramente o filme, que tem recebido forte promoção.
