Jackson fed boys wine before sexually abusing them: Ex-housekeeper

London, July 5 (ANI): Michael Jackson’s former housekeeper has revealed that the King of Pop used to lock the boys in his bedroom and fed wine from babies’ bottles before sexually abusing them.

Adrian McManus worked for the ‘Thriller’ hitmaker for four years and had the only keys to his downstairs private quarters, which included his main bedroom with the children’s rooms in a loft above him.

“Every night I went home feeling sick to my stomach,” the News of the World quoted McManus one of the Neverland Five who sued him for wrongful dismissal.

“He was a lonely, deranged, sick human tragedy. And he wasn’t playing at being a boy again, this man was molesting boys,” she added.

McManus said that the 50-year-old singer was at his happiest when he had little boys with him.

He also kept wine in his room to spike soft drinks – which he gave to the boys.

“He was at his happiest when he had little boys with him,” she said. “He would lock himself in his bedroom for days at a time with them. He acted inappropriately with at least ten boys,” she said.

“He would buy dozens of these baby bottles for the older kids. It was obvious he was drinking and slipping wine into their drinks,” she added.

McManus revealed how she saw Jackson abuse Jordy Chandler in his room.

“I saw Michael kiss and touch Jordan. They both bounded into the bedroom, soaking wet, after playing under the waterfall at the side of the house.

“Then Michael just lent forward slowly and kissed Jordan on the lips.

“Michael then moved his hand down. I froze and realised that my boss was a paedophile,” she added.
McManus said that he even issued veiled death threats to his staff to stop them telling cops about it. (ANI)
