'Leaving Neverland' And Questions About Michael Jackson's Legacy

Allegations that Michael Jackson sexually abused children have been in and out of the headlines for years.

Now, they're resurfacing in a big way because of the HBO Documentary 'Leaving Neverland.' Part 1 aired last night; the second part runs tonight. The film features two men who describe — in graphic detail — being groomed and molested by Jackson when they were boys.

Beyond the claims themselves, "Leaving Neverland" is fueling a fierce debate about Jackson's musical legacy ... and what we should do with any collection of art, after its creator is accused of monstrous crimes.
