Netflix announces Michael Jackson trial documentary series
Netflix announced Michael Jackson: The Verdict, a three-part documentary that premieres June 3 and revisits Jackson's 2005 criminal trial on child molestation charges involving Gavin Arvizo. The series includes new interviews with jurors, eyewitnesses, media figures, accusers and defense witnesses, and it promises a forensic look at the trial from both prosecution and defense perspectives.
