Michael Jackson’s former family friends, the Cascios, have reportedly filed a lawsuit against his estate, alleging sex trafficking and abuse. According to TMZ, members of the Cascio family claim they endured decades of misconduct, starting when some of them were minors.
Edward Cascio, Dominic Cascio, Marie Porte, and Aldo Cascio filed a lawsuit against The Michael Jackson Company, accusing the corporation of sex trafficking children through force, fraud, and coercion. In the suit, they claim the pop icon carried out the alleged conduct for years, starting when some of them were just seven or eight years old. The siblings stated that Jackson would insert himself into their lives by showering them with gifts and giving them access to his lavish lifestyle. Afterwards, he would allegedly separate them from each other and from their families before carrying out years of abuse.
The lawsuit lists several accusations, including claims that he targeted the siblings during interstate and international trips, taking them to places like Switzerland, Florida, South Africa, and the United Kingdom. Edward Cascio specifically alleges that Jackson assault him inside Elizabeth Taylor’s home in Switzerland and Elton John’s home in the United Kingdom. The Cascios also argue that Jackson tried to normalize the abuse by showing them explicit photos of nude children. Additionally, the family mentioned that MJ frequently used prescription drugs such as Xanax and Vicodin.
The Cascios previously approached Jackson’s estate after watching the 2019 ‘Leaving Neverland’ documentary, leading them to secure a settlement. TMZ notes that each sibling reportedly collected $690K, per year for five years, but they now consider that amount insufficient. Their attorney, Mark Geragos, reportedly traveled to Los Angeles last month in an effort to void the agreement. However, MJ’s estate lawyer, Marty Singer, pushed back and accused the siblings of attempting to extort the late singer’s team.
After The Shade Room posted the details about the suit against Michael Jackson’s estate, fans flooded the comment section. Some said they don’t believe the allegations, while others insisted on letting the “King of Pop” rest in peace.

The spokesperson also added that the estate had no idea about Red’s sample before it went viral.
