Michael Jackson was accused of child abuse on two significant occasions during his life. The first notable allegation occurred in 1993 when a 13-year-old boy accused him of molestation. The case was settled out of court, and no criminal charges were filed at that time.
The second major accusation came in 2003, when Jackson was charged with multiple counts of child molestation involving another young boy, Gavin Arvizo. This case went to trial in 2005, and Jackson was acquitted of all charges.
In addition to these two major incidents, there were various rumors and allegations surrounding him throughout his career, but those two cases are the most prominent and resulted in legal actions.
