Frank Cascio

Frank Cascio is a former assistant and close friend of Michael Jackson, who has recently been accused of attempting to extort $213 million from Jackson's estate. Having been part of Jackson's inner circle for over 30 years, Cascio initially defended the late pop icon against allegations of misconduct, even authoring a book titled 'My Friend Michael' in which he praised Jackson's innocence. However, following the release of the documentary 'Leaving Neverland' in 2019, Cascio reportedly sought financial gain by threatening to release sensational accusations against Jackson, prompting legal action from the estate.
