Bad: An Unprecedented Investigation into the Michael Jackson Cover-Up

The Front Page Detectives Series

By: Dylan Howard

Narrated by: David Linski

He was the King of Pop, a superstar without equal, the idol of millions of young people around the world. But was Michael Jackson also a sexual predator without equal, someone who preyed on the very fans who adored him?

Bad is the revelatory untold true story of the strange and larger-than-life career of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop. In the wake of the controversial two-part documentary Leaving Neverland, which told the stories of two young boys who were befriended by the singer and have claimed they suffered years of agonizing abuse, Dylan Howard set out to investigate Jackson’s life and death in unprecedented depth, to determine - as one lawyer suggested - that the pop star ran “the most sophisticated child sexual abuse procurement and facilitation operation the world has known.”

After all the highly publicized trials and unfounded accusations, stunning new information has finally come to light: irrefutable evidence that one of the best-known, best-loved figures in the world was a monster behind closed doors - a foul-mouthed, abusive, drug-sodden freak whose deeds and the reasons for those deeds are revealed now for the first time.

A dramatic narrative account based on dozens of interviews, Howard shares Jackson’s own riveting personal journal - obtained exclusively for this book - interviews with family members, multiple first-person sources - some of whom have asked to remain anonymous - as well as thousands of pages of court documents.

Remarkably though, in death, there remains two portraits of Michael Jackson: the reigning King of Pop, and a pedophile whose pattern of abuse ruined his reputation. Fans and individuals alike will forever be asking if the insidious claims being made about MJ are true. This is the new narrative and the sad legacy of one of the best-selling music artists of all time.

Here is his life story, told for the first time with stories and testimony that will leave you shaken.

Love to Hate and Love Again

Listening to this audible brought back so many memories of my life as it parallel the Jackson Family especially Michael Jackson discographies. At times I laughed, cried and found myself wanting to hate Michael for the psychological and physical abuse of young children. Sadden by his tragic end, I prayed that he may finally be be resting in peace! His contributions were enormous and will be never forgotten! A man nobody knew!

Sad and horrifying

For those who have followed the stories over the decades of MJ’s abuses of boys, what this book adds are accounts that never made the press as well as rebuttals with details I’d never heard. I am glad I read it. It shows that greatness can coexist with utterly grim behavior.

New insights

After reading Dieter Wiesner's new book, I wasn't expecting much here. I worried Michael Jackson's story was all played out. I was wrong. I've read over a dozen Michael Jackson books. I am constantly fascinated by him and love new insights. This book is loaded with them (ever hear George the Ghost mentioned anywhere? Me either). It is as if the author sourced material and witnesses other authors chose to ignore. The book compliments the work of other authors and adds more understanding to the complex and troubled superstar. Health issues, financial issues, legal troubles, bad behavior; nothing is left out.

Interesting Book!

I believe that book is very opinionated. It is an interesting perspective although I don’t agree with everything.

Fiction Tabloid Trash Reports

This person used tabloid reports and twisted stories and manipulated facts and evidence to tell his fabricated book story. Don’t waste your time to read or listen it. I bet a couple of people that he used them here with lies can sue him for slander. The writer is BAD!
