Declaration by Jackson attorney Brian Oxman discusses incredibly damaging info about the accusing familys credibility and current allegations
Explosive new court documents (docs) were released recently that may have completely obliterated the accusing familys conspiracy allegations in the Michael Jackson case.
The info is so damaging that most of the general media has so far stayed away from even reporting in detail what was stated in the redacted defense docs. What are they afraid of? Jackson attorney Brian Oxman discussed the accusing familys changing stories and request for psychological examinations.
Even though a number of lines are blacked out in the court doc, much more info about the history of the accusing family is revealed. The history of this family is relevant because what some commentators dont yet understand is that this is no longer a he-said/he-said case.
The accusing familythe mother, the sister, and the accusers brotherare also leveling specific allegations against Jackson about the way they were treated and what they allegedly suffered at the hands of Jackson or his employees.
That makes their history and credibility fair game as well. Oxman is the attorney who issued a subpoena which sparked the prosecutions cry-baby motion as discussed in MJEOL Bullet #225: Prosecutors Whining After Obtaining Numerous Search Warrants.
In his declaration, Oxman states that contrary to what prosecutors are claiming, the subpoena does not violate the privacy of any of the accusing family members. As a matter of fact, Oxman writes, the Court has already endorsed these subpoenas.

Order for Release of Redacted Docs – Declaration of Brian Oxman (11-24-04) Excerpts: 4. In direct violation of this Court’s July 9 2004 order __________________ have informed the prosecution of the existence of a subpoena. Their disregard for this Court’s orders after being served with a copy of the July 9 2004 Order, demonstrates an overriding bias that is the product of their vested financial interest in this case that is so strong that it compels them to violate court orders. These individuals have no excuse for their inexcusable flaunting of the July 9 2004 Order. (pg 3) ———————————————————– 6. Plaintiff produced a medical report dated August 12 2004, from ____________ claiming the complaining mother was physically incapacitated and unable to attend court. (Exhibit “A”). Plaintiff then asks this Court to block Mr. Jackson’s subpoena that seeks to verify the medical representations that the prosecution and the complaining witness made to this Court. There was no limitation on the August 12 2004, _____________, and not only did plaintiff open the door to permit Mr. Jackson’s inquiry into the medical representations made in that letter, but also under Evidence Code section 998, there is no physician-patient privilege in criminal proceedings. Evidence Code section 998. (pg 4) —————————————————– 14. Laboratory tests for the complaining witnesses are critical in this case because the prosecution has claimed that Mr. Jackson was part of a vast conspiracy to dump a urine sample jar so that alcohol would not be detected in the older son’s urine. {Redacted information}. There was sufficient urine to test on the occasion in question, and the laboratory reports will demonstrate that fact. 15.

Her medical records contain a history of the use of {Redacted Information} drugs, and {Redacted Information}. The records are relevant because they disclose other medical information dealing with the truth of her claims and not for the sake of the gynecological portion of the records. 18. {4 lines of redacted information}. The complaining mother’s gynecological records will demonstrate the fact she failed to take her medication. 20. {3 lines of redacted information}. The medical bills from heath care provides (sic) will demonstrate the mother defrauded Michael Jackson. (5-7) ————————————————————— 23. While the prosecution claims her medical records are irrelevant to this proceeding, the mother is the one who claims physical injuries to her and her children because of Michael Jackson. It is improper for anyone to offer a doctor’s report to a court of law {redacted info} and then to attempt to hide the medical records. Mr. Jackson has a right to determine the veracity of not only the complaining mother, but also the physicians involved, and the court should compel production of the medical reports 24.

Defense: DA Attempting to Shield Witnesses from Cross-Examination MB#226
Defense: DA Attempting to Shield Witnesses from Cross-Examination MB#226 Prosecutors complained to the judge that Jacksons attorneys wanted too much information about the accusing family. Now the defense has responded to the prosecutions claims. They say the DA is attempting to shield the accusing family from scrutiny, and also want the defense to reveal their strategy in newly released documents dated Nov 23 2004. In the defenses Opposition to District Attorneys Request that Court Modify Its Teal Order, they say that in accordance with the law they are not required to reveal defense strategy to prosecutors. They also make the argument that DA Tom Sneddon had an opportunity to question the Teal motions scope. Now these prosecutors want to change the game to handicap the defense. The defense also says the very notion of a Teal motionwhich allows defense attorneys to develop and investigate their cases without notifying prosecutors of their intentionswould be meaningless if they had to clear their subpoenas with prosecutors. From the motion:
Defense counsel is not required to disclose potential defense strategies or work product to the prosecutor as a condition of receiving documents produced pursuant to a subpoena duces tecum. (See Teal v Superior Court (Barrett) (2000) 80 Cal. App. 4th 1305, 1320.) (see Defense’s Reply to DA’s Request to Modify Teal Motion 11-24-04 pg 2)
