The newly released footage, which shows officers walking past life-sized mannequins of characters like Superman and Lara Croft, gives an insight into Jackson’s life six years before his death.

A SIGNED photograph of Macaulay Culkin, stuffed animals and n**ed photos were found hidden in a closet kept closed with three locks in Michael Jackson’s Neverland mansion during a police raid, new footage has revealed.

The secret closet was hidden at the back of the King of Pop’s bedroom and found during the raid of the home in November 2003, involving 70 members of the Santa Barbara County District Attorney’s Office and Sheriff’s Department.

A police report after the raid further claimed there were more than half a dozen collections of work that showed boys in their teen years and even younger, fully nude or partially clothed.

Descriptions of the house and its peculiar contents were detailed in court papers at the time after claims were made by a young boy that the singer had sexually abused him on multiple occasions.

The collection of photographs included Taormina Wilhelm Von Gloeden, which was described in court as “Nude photos of teenage boys from late 1800s.”

An arrest warrant for the King of Pop was issued during the investigations with Jackson turning himself into police when he returned to California.

During the video of the raid, officers can be heard discussing where to go throughout the home.

While outside, one addresses the other officers, saying: “All the people that you find, secure them and tell them to come back to the main house and we’ll sit them down.”

The police report and court papers were first released by Radar Online, with one of the investigating officers reportedly telling them: “The documents exposed Jackson as a manipulative, drug-and-sex-crazed predator who used blood, gore, sexually explicit images of animal sacrifice and perverse adult sex acts to bend children to his will.”

‘PURE PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS TORN DOWN

Michael Jackson’s daughter Paris has slammed the release of the police footage showing authorities enacting a search warrant on her popstar father’s home.

In a series of Tweets, the young woman wrote: “The most pure people are always torn down.. It will continue to be proven that my beloved dad has always been and forever will be innocent.”
She also tweeted a photo of MJ sticking up his index finger and licking it.

The 18-year-old, who recently slammed critics who had condemned her for not writing a Father’s Day message, urged people not to buy into the negativity around her father.

Santa Barbara Senior Assistant District Attorney Ron Zonen told Radar that the material was used to desensitize children.

Zoen said: “We identified five different boys, who all made allegations of sexual abuse. There’s not much question in my mind that Michael was guilty of child molestation.”

Jackson was charged with seven felony counts of child molestation and two felony counts of providing an intoxicant to a minor under the age of 14 but was ultimately acquitted in 2005.

Claims against Jackson included those from 13-year-old cancer survivor, Gavin Arvizo.

The young boy’s claims were similar to those that had been previously made by Jordan Chandler, who was also 13 at the time when he came forward to say he had been molested by Jackson.

No charges were filed against Jackson after police discovered the young boy’s father may have been trying to extort Jackson.

But while his mother claimed Jackson had never touched her son, Jordan had been able to describe Jackson’s buttocks, pubic hair, and distinctive marks on both his testicles and penis.

The mark on the penis could only be seen if it was lifted and was otherwise not visible.

The case was settled with Jordan paying $22million to the Chandler family.

Jackson was found dead inside his Holmby Hills home in 2009 while preparing for his comeback tour.

Despite emergency services rushing to the scene, they were unable to revive the 48-year-old.

The cause of death was later ruled to be acute propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication caused by drugs that were being prescribed to him by Dr. Conrad Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 2011 and charged with the singer’s death.

He was released in November 2013 after serving roughly half of his four year sentence.

The investigators can be heard asking staff at the home whether there are any other “secret rooms”
