A four-hour long documentary Leaving Neverland, directed by Dan Reed has been released Sunday bringing back the gruesomeness of ‘King of Pop’ Michael Jackson’s sexual abuse.

Two of Jackson's accusers, James Safechuck and Wade Robson, dig into the details of the horrifying things the pop icon did to them for years.

Wade Robson shared his versions of stories, how he got to know the pop star, how a friendship between him and Jackson turned into something he didn't expect, how he was abused for aprolonged period of time since then and more.

Robson, in the documentary, states that he, who preferred dance over basketball, was a big fan of the pop star. He would imitate the Thriller singer's dance moves. After winning a local dance contest, Robson got the opportunity to meet and befriend Michael Jackson. Their friendship was further propelled by his over-eager mother, who was fascinated by the idea of him getting familiar with a celebrity.

It is likewise seen Robson divulging deeper into the horrors of sexual abuse, which he faced at the mere age of seven. It was just a start from then, adds Wade as he states chilling details of a number of anal and oral activities that were conducted by the pop star on him. In fact, Jackson allegedly even told Wade that women cannot be trusted and that they cannot tell anyone about the things they do as both would face jail.

The second accuser Safechuck, reveals how he met Jackson as they worked together in a Pepsi ad. Aged 10, Safechuck and Jackson developed a friendship which led to him accompanying the star on his tours, along with his starstruck mother. In his testimony, Safechuck stated that Jackson allegedly introduced him to masturbation when he was 11 years old. James would bunk with Jackson while his mother would be given a separate room.

Sooner or later, her hotel rooms were being booked on different floors as Jackson wanted to make certain to prevent leak of this kind of information. He fed James too with the same image of how women are evil and cannot be trustworthy. James further revealed that he and Jackson even had a mock wedding where he was given a ring by the star, which he still owns.

James and Wade's importance eventually began fading away as they allege that Jackson found new and younger boys. Macaulay Culkin preplaced Wade in the Black and White video which led to feelings of insecurities and jealousy. “You’re no longer special,” James describes.

“I understand that it’s really hard for them to believe because, in a way, not that long ago, I was in the same position they were in,” Wade said and added, "Even though it happened to me, I still couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t believe that what Michael did was a bad thing up until six years ago. So I understand. We can only accept and understand something when we’re ready, and maybe we’ll never be ready. Maybe we will. So that’s their journey.”

The late pop star’s fans have been sending out death threats to the two accusers since have delved into the horrifying details of their childhood with Michael Jackson.
