'They told me they would slice my neck' Michael Jackson's people 'threatened to kill his maid if she went public with sex abuse claims about the King of Pop'

World 17:47 21.02.2019

A former maid who spent years working for Michael Jackson is claiming that his people threatened to kill her if she ever spoke about what she saw at Neverland Ranch.

Adrian McManus told 60 Minutes that she witnessed the King of Pop 'kissing and petting' young boys that visited Neverland, but was too afraid to speak out at the time. 

'There was a kind side to him, and yet there was a dark side,' Ms McManus said.

'They told me if I ever came up on TV that they could hire a hitman to take me out, slice my neck, wouldn't ever find my body.' 

In an exclusive interview with DailyMailTV earlier this month, McManus lifted the lid on the sick behavior she allegedly witnessed during the four years she worked at the Neverland ranch and is in no doubt her former employer was a 'pedophile'.

She claims the star - who has been accused of serious sexual abuse in a shocking new documentary - brought a long line of young boys into his bedroom and that she saw many troubling things while cleaning up after him.

McManus, 56, claims she often fished Jackson's and children's underwear from the jacuzzi and baths at the home, and witnessed kids walking around barely clothed.

She says she found Vaseline and tampons next to Jackson's bed and scattered around the house and recalls the singer having a strange obsession with photos of children.

'There was a lot of Vaseline around Neverland, a lot in Michael’s bedroom,' she recalls.

'I didn’t question it, because he was my boss and you just do what you’re supposed to do, but I would wonder.

'And they had it all over in the main house, there was a rose room, it was up there. They had it in train room, which was kind of like an attic; they had that up there. It was in every room, the soldier room.

'It was in drawers. Sometimes it was on counters. Sometimes they would find it on the golf carts that Michael would take out to drive around.'

McManus would often have to clean up after Jackson had boys over for long weekends.

'I found underwear that were in the back of Michael’s main room and one of the closets and it was in the back of the filing cabinets,' she recalls.

'They were very hard, and crunchy, and yellow, but I didn’t know who they belonged to.

And the King Of Pop himself issued threats to staff who questioned his behavior.

'I knew Michael very, very well, and I was told that what I know you just don’t say it, and that really concerned me.

'I was threatened by Michael when I took over his bedroom, so I was already scared with that and I was afraid for my family.

'At that point, I was thinking of my life and my family’s life; something could happen to me.

'I was told by Michael’s bodyguards that they could hire a hit man to take me out, that they could have somebody slice my neck and you’d never find my body. So yeah, I was very concerned and it’s my life and I cared about my life.'

She continued: 'Nobody knew what these bodyguards were, and everybody was afraid of them. They carried guns and they would tell you little things and pet their guns. These guys were wicked and scary.'
