The FBI has released more than 300 pages of documents relating to Michael Jackson, and while they do not provide new insight into his June 2009 death, the information contained still raises eyebrows, and is just as bizarre as you'd expect.
The formerly classified material includes info regarding his 1993 and 2004 child molestation cases, as well as an extortion case where he was a victim.
Despite an application under the Freedom of Information Act, half his file remains secret. What is available, however, provides no shortage of material.
In 2004, local police in Santa Maria, Calif., requested FBI involvement believing the court proceedings against MJ made for "soft target for terrorism.
"No intelligence indicating a terrorist threat" existed, the FBI said, but the bureau did provide technical and investigative assistance into the case.
A new window into Michael Jackson's past has opened via his FBI file.
In June 2005, Jackson was found not guilty of all charges at the end of the four-month trial. The FBI assisted local authorities then and in 1993.
The FBI's legal office in London assisted local authorities with the Michael Jackson child molestation probe in 1993, and in 1995 U.S. customs officials asked the FBI to provide analysis of a VHS tape as part of a child pornography investigation.
The tape - "a multi-generation copy of poor quality" - was marked "Michael Jackson's Neverland Favorites: An All Boy Anthology," FBI documents say.
In 1993, police in L.A. began investigating allegations of child abuse against Michael Jackson made by the father of 13-year old Jordan Chandler.
