December 7, 1382 (Azar 7, 1382) - The Accusing Child Is Severely Ill
Jamie Masada, the owner of The Laugh Factory in West Hollywood, said that the child at the center of the recent issues involving Michael is in a very serious health condition and needs a kidney transplant. He announced this at an annual dinner event he held at his club for the homeless. Masada said that doctors recently removed a large tumor from the boy’s stomach, and at the same time they also removed one kidney and his spleen. He added that he has seen the child this week, and that his remaining kidney has failed and he needs a transplant. He said the child is currently being treated at home, not in a hospital. It is still unclear what effect the child’s condition might have on the Jackson case. Masada said he hasn’t spoken to the child about Jackson and refused to comment on whether he believes these allegations are true. A spokesperson for Jackson’s family, without commenting on the accuracy of Masada’s claims, said that they hope the child’s condition will improve. He said, “I think it doesn’t need to be said that we are all hoping he regains his health, and our heartfelt wish is that he recovers.”
