"I cried and cried. It is beautiful there. It still has good energy," Paris Jackson said.

The pop star was brought to trial for the accusation in 2005 but was acquitted. During the case the prosecution portrayed Jackson as a calculating predator. Citing Jackson's own words saying he allowed children to sleep in his bed and saw nothing wrong with that.

The future heart surgeon, Paris Jackson told the Daily Mail, "I have lots of memories of my father. He was an incredible father. We all loved him to death. He'd try to educate us as much as he could and was always looking out for us. He was very protective... He didn't want anyone to see what we looked like. That way we could have what he didn't, which was a normal childhood."
