Operation Yewtree detectives keen to interview Michael Jackson hologram
Detectives running Operation Yewtree into allegations of historical sexual abuse are keen to interview the Michael Jackson hologram that appeared at the Billboard music awards in the US this weekend. The hologram was seen onstage for several minutes during the awards, but has so far refused to appear for questioning â though officers remainÂ hopeful of getting time in front of him soon. A spokesperson for Operate Yewtree told reporters, âAt this stage we will only confirm that Mr Jacksonâs hologram could help us with our enquiries.â âThere is no direct suggestion of wrongdoing on the part of the Jacksonâs hologram, and therefore any inference you make is your own.â UponÂ being told that the hologram was merely a light-based fabrication made using technology, and not actually a real person, detectives pulled out a photograph of the hologram performing at the billboard music awards before asking, âexplain that then!â âWe have witnesses who claim someone matching the hologramâs description could be involved in historic incidents of abuse, and as such we would like to investigate further.â âWe donât want to make arrests at this stage, but we will be forced to do so if the hologram remains uncooperative.â A spokesperson for the Billboard awards said that no-one had seen the hologram since the performance ended. They told us, âNo, the Jackson hologram just disappeared as soon as the song was finished.â âIt was kinda suspicious now you mention it, they didnât even want a dressing room. God knows where itâs hiding at the moment.â âThen again this is Las Vegas, it could be doing anything. with or âtoâ anyone.â âAll perfectly consensual. Obviously.â
