Netflix’s newly released docuseries, Michael Jackson: The Verdict, has reignited public interest in the infamous 2005 criminal trial of the King of Pop, one that is listed among the most controversial celebrity trials in history.

Yet, more than 20 years later, we are still talking about it, and the opinions remain largely divided regarding Jackson’s innocence.
