ANI New York

The star of a 1987 Pepsi ad featuring Michael Jackson has alleged that the King of Pop sexually abused him for years.

Sources revealed that the man involved is James Safechuck and he has joined the lawsuit originally filed by Wade Robson in May 2013 claiming that Jackson groomed him and molested him for several years beginning when he was 10 years old, the Daily Beast reported.

Safechuck had been mentioned as a potential abuse victim by employees of the 'Beat It' hitmaker's Neverland Ranch in court documents filed ahead of the star's 2005 criminal trial, however, he always denied that Jackson had molested him until now.
