Jurors in the child molestation trial of Michael Jackson will be shown the explosive television documentary which set in motion the events that led to his arrest, a judge ruled.

Judge Rodney Melville ruled that prosecutors can screen the British Broadcasting Corporation’s version of Martin Bashir’s programme “Living With Michael Jackson” for the jury, despite objections from Jackson’s lawyers.

“I’m going to limit it to the documentary aired on the BBC, not the 20/20 (US) version containing commentary by journalists,” Melville said.
