The stepfather of Michael Jackson's young accuser has testified that the boy returned from the pop star's Neverland Valley Ranch changed by whatever went on there, describing the teen at one point as "brainwashed".
The stepfather, a major in the US Army reserve, also said the family came under pressure from members of Mr Jackson's inner circle to make a videotaped statement defending him, offering protection from an unspecified threat as well as a house and college education.
The singer denies all the charges against him.
