Choreographer Wade Robson appeared on The Today Show Thursday to discuss claims that he was sexually abused by late pop legend Michael Jackson and to explain his recent request for compensation from Jackson’s estate. 

Robson was one of the witnesses at Michael’s 2005 child molestation trial and was said to be instrumental in the star’s acquittal. Wade, who says Jackson molested him multiple times between the ages of seven and 14, now claims he “was scared psychologically and emotionally completely unable and unwilling to understand that it was sexual abuse.”
Speaking to Today, the married dancer remarked:
“This is not a case of repressed memory. I never forgot one moment of what Michael did to me. He performed sexual acts on me and I performed sexual acts on him. It was complete manipulation and brainwashing. He would role-play and train me for these scenarios.”

“....There is no excuse for what he did to me, but he was a troubled man…The image that one presents to the world is not the whole explanation of who someone is. Michael Jackson was yes, an incredibly talented artist with an incredible gift. He was many things. And he was also a pedophile and a child sexual abuser.”

What do you think about  Wade's allegations after all of this time?
