- Johanna Sjoberg claimed she met Michael Jackson at Jeffrey Epstein’s house
- Sjoberg said she met Jackson in Palm Beach and did not give him a massage
- The late King of Pop, who died in 2009, was previously accused of child molestation
One of Jeffrey Epstein‘s alleged victims claimed she saw Michael Jackson at the pedophile’s Florida mansion, but said she did not massage the late King of Pop.
Johanna Sjoberg, who claimed Prince Andrew groped her breast with a puppet, said in newly unsealed depositions that she met Michael Jackson when she was with Epstein.
In a May 18, 2016, deposition Sjoberg was asked if she had ever met anybody famous when she was with Epstein, which she responded ‘I met Michael Jackson.’
Sjoberg was asked where she met the Thriller singer and she said, ‘At his house in Palm Beach. At Jeffrey’s house in Palm Beach.’
She was then asked if she massaged Jackson and replied ‘I did not.’ No further details were given on when the meeting took place. Jackson died in June 2009 aged 50 and has himself been accused of pedophilia.

Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion was one of several sites where he sexually abused young girls.
The waterfront estate, just over a mile from Donald Trump ‘s Mar-a-Lago, went on the market in 2020 for $21.995 million but is believed to have been sold for $18 million.
Todd Michael Glaser, a Florida-based developer, now intends to demolish the existing house and build a new one in its place.
In August, a California appeals court revived lawsuits from two men who allege the late King of Pop sexually abused them for years when they were boys.
A three-judge panel from California’s 2nd District Court of Appeal found that the lawsuits of Wade Robson and James Safechuck should not have been dismissed by a lower court.
The judges ruled that the men can validly claim that the two Jackson-owned corporations that were named as defendants in the cases had a responsibility to protect them.

The two men became more widely known for telling their stories in the 2019 HBO docu-series Leaving Neverland.
The four-hour documentary was strenuously contested by the Jackson family, who called it a ‘public lynching’ of a man who was acquitted of child molestation charges in 2005.
Wednesday’s explosive papers also saw Sjoberg recall how Epstein had told her that Bill Clinton ‘likes them young.’
Sjoberg claims to have known Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre was underage when she allegedly had sex with Prince Andrew in 2001.
Andrew denies any sort of sexual contact or wrongdoing.
Bizarrely, the trove of papers also detailed how magician David Copperfield performed tricks for Epstein – then allegedly asked Sjoberg if she knew that Epstein paid his ‘girls’ to procure other girls for him.
And an email that appears to be from Epstein to Ghislaine Maxwell shows him urging her to rubbish comments that disabled physicist Professor Stephen Hawking participated in a pedophile orgy during a trip to Epstein’s private island in 2008.
Sjoberg, now a hairdresser living in Florida, has previously said Maxwell recruited her to provide massages for Epstein in 2001 when she was at college.
She infamously told a British newspaper of an alleged encounter with the Duke at the East 71st Street mansion at ‘Easter 2001’ upon Epstein and madam Ghislaine Maxwell’s request.
In depositions released Wednesday, she was asked if she’d given massages to various famous men who were guests of a party Epstein held, including Star Wars creator George Lucas and former President Trump.
Nearly 200 names that had previously been redacted from a long-settled sex trafficking suit against Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell have been made public
In addition, new evidence from Sjoberg is due to be presented in a US court this week against Andrew, who was known to keep the company of Epstein and Maxwell
She responded ‘no’ to whether Trump had asked her for any sexual favors or if she’d ever massaged him.

The legal documents could reveal more details of her alleged encounter with the royal.
