Michael Jackson estate slams 'pornography collection' allegations and those who "shamelessly exploit" him
Santa Barbara police also respond to 'leak' of purported obscene images.

The Michael Jackson estate has strenuously denied allegations regarding an alleged pornography collection once found on the star's property, telling Digital Spy in a statement that "enough is enough".
RadarOnline has published an 88-page report, purportedly including information compiled by investigators prior to Jackson's molestation trial in 2005.
Jackson was ultimately acquitted on all counts at the end of that five-month molestation trial.
Regarding new allegations that police found graphic sexual images on Neverland Ranch during its 2003 investigation, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department told Billboard: "Some of the documents appear to be copies of reports that were authored by Sheriff's Office personnel as well as evidentiary photographs taken by Sheriff's Office personnel interspersed with content that appears to be obtained off the internet or through unknown sources.
"The Sheriff's Office did not release any of the documents and/or photographs to the media. The Sheriff's Office released all of its reports and the photographs as part of the required discovery process to the prosecution and the defense.
"The documents with a header titled Sheriff's Department that contain a case number appear to be Sheriff's Office documents. The photos that are interspersed appear to be some evidentiary photos taken by Sheriff's investigators and others are clearly obtained from the Internet."
However, The Michael Jackson Estate delivered a strongly-worded denial of these latest allegations and a rebuke of those who "shamelessly exploit" the late star.
The Jackson Estate told Digital Spy: "Seven years ago this coming Saturday, the world lost an amazing artist and humanitarian devoted to helping children in need in all corners of the world.
"Michael Jackson's fans, including the Executors of his estate, prefer to remember the wonderful gifts Michael left behind instead of having to once again see his good name dragged through the mud by tabloid trash.
"Everything in these reports, including what the County of Santa Barbara calls 'content that appears to be obtained off the Internet or through unknown sources' is false, no doubt timed to the anniversary of Michael's passing.
"Those who continue to shamelessly exploit Michael via sleazy internet 'click bait' ignore that he was acquitted by a jury in 2005 on every one of the 14 salacious charges brought against him in a failed witch hunt.
"Michael remains just as innocent of these smears in death as he was in life even though he isn't here to defend himself. Enough is enough."
Michael Jackson's nephew Taj Jackson - son of Jackson 5 member Tito - also denied the validity of these latest allegations on Twitter on Tuesday.
