Jackson's Bodyguard Defends Pop Icon After Epstein Photo Release

• An undated photo of Michael Jackson with Jeffrey Epstein was released in the US Department of Justice's Epstein Files.
• Jackson's former bodyguard, Matt Fiddes, states the photo was from 2002-2003 during a house-hunting trip, before Epstein's crimes were known.
• Fiddes asserts Jackson did not know Epstein and calls any suggested connection "all nonsense."
• Fans (Moonwalkers) defend Jackson online, highlighting lack of evidence and his 2005 acquittal in a separate trial.
• No credible evidence links Jackson to Epstein's criminal activities beyond the photograph itself.
