Police said that the man who accused pop star Michael Jackson of molesting his son in 1993 killed himself in his New Jersey condo earlier this month.
The Jersey City, New Jersey police report said that Evan Chandler, 65, was found by the building’s concierge November 5 after a doctor, who was treating him for cancer, said he missed an appointment.
The report added that Chandler was “extremely ill” with cancer.
He was working as a dentist in Beverly Hills, California, in 1993 when he said his son, who was 13 at the time, told him that Jackson had molested him. He said that his son revealed it when he put him under anesthesia to pull a tooth.
The Los Angeles County district attorney did not pursue criminal charges against Jackson, but Chandler and his son reached a confidential financial settlement with the singer after filing a lawsuit. The Chandlers got between $16 million and $20 million from Jackson’s insurance company, reports at the time said.
