Overview
- Edward, Dominic, Marie-Nicole and Aldo Cascio filed a Feb. 27 civil complaint in Los Angeles against The Michael Jackson Company seeking about $200 million.
- The suit alleges Jackson groomed the siblings as children, administered prescription drugs, exposed them to pornography and assaulted them over more than a decade.
- Claims include sex trafficking, negligence, intentional infliction of emotional distress, breach of contract and fraud.
- The plaintiffs also move to void a prior financial arrangement reported as $690,000 per person annually for five years from the estate.
- Estate attorney Marty Singer issues a categorical denial, calling the filing an opportunistic money grab and noting the family’s past public defenses of Jackson.
