Chris Tucker’s Ex Writes an Open Letter to the Arvizos

She and Chris Tucker testified in court in 2005.
OPEN LETTER TO A MICHAEL JACKSON ACCUSER (THE ARVIZO FAMILY): Subpoenaed by the defense in 2005, Azja Pryor writes to Jackson’s 2nd accuser
*Dear Gavin, Star, Davellin, and Janet:
After Michael's tragic death last week, I have to say that all the negative feelings I've had towards your family following the outrageous claims made by you Gavin and your mother Janet--against Michael--came back to me tenfold. The pain, disappointment, anger, and betrayal I feel towards you simply cannot be put into words.
You have shown me that your greed, lies, and personal gain override any “morals” your family claims to have; and you have proven yourselves to be the kind of people capable of turning your back on the very person who came to your rescue when you were most desperate.
The fact that you falsely accused Michael of the most heinous of acts, and made his life a living hell in what would become his last years is unthinkable; and I am sure some would say, unforgivable. In your attempts to destroy him once again, you, Gavin, accused the man you called your “best friend” of the one thing that you (and everyone else) knew would completely turn his life inside out.
You took the one thing we all know that Michael cared about most in life--children, especially children who are suffering, and you tried to turn it into a bad thing. You Janet, as a parent, allowed this, encouraged this, and went forward with the awful lies in an attempt to destroy Michael Jackson and swindle money from him.
Shame on you!
This man did nothing but help your family in their darkest hour. I know Michael was just like my family. We were all pulled into your woeful stories and shared your family's plight as Gavin fought for his life during his battle with cancer. Gavin, you told me that Michael's love helped cure you of cancer.
Your entire family praised Michael privately to everyone who would listen, yet turned against him so viciously in public. I have remained silent for many years, but I can no longer do so. Right now I struggle to find the words to adequately write this letter, as I am so filled with anger towards you and pain for the Jackson family.
You call yourself Christians. If this is true I call on you, Gavin, and your mother Janet to finally do the right thing for Michael in death that you never did during his days here on earth. You need to completely exonerate Michael's name and legacy from the awful, disgusting claims you made against him.
Claims and allegations that you and I both know are completely false and utterly ridiculous. Whatever your motives at the time to create such accusations are now minute and unimportant.
It is much bigger than you.
We are speaking on this man's legacy; a man who positively touched lives around the world. A man who is arguably the greatest entertainer the world will ever know. Michael is someone who shared in your family's pain; opened his home to you and included you in his very own family. He was a human being who never deserved any of this.
Gavin and Janet, you can change your identity and try to hide from the public scrutiny, but ultimately, you cannot hide from the wrath of God's judgment. This is the right thing to do. It is the very least you can do for Michael, his children, and his legacy.
Gavin you are now 19 years old, no longer an impressionable young boy under you mother's guidance, nor are you a pawn in this grand scheme to assassinate Michael's character. I know your heart, and I know that you are capable of doing what is right. Clear Michael's name of your ugly accusations once and for all. You owe it to him. You owe it to his family. And you owe it to God. Let's finally give Michael the ability to completely rest in peace.

Chris Tucker Warned Michael About The Arvizo’s
Actor Chris Tucker testified today that he had warned Michael Jackson about the family of the boy who said he was molested by the pop star.
Tucker, who is also a well-known comedian, said he befriended the accuser in 2000 when the boy, now 15, was suffering from cancer. The boy wanted to be a comedian and made friends with many performers, including Tucker, who gave the family cash and presents. “I wasn’t aware that he was fond of that many comedians,” Tucker testified. “His father said I was his favorite comedian. I didn’t know he was contacting the whole town.” The accuser and Tucker developed a relationship that included gifts and visits to sporting events, Tucker testified.
At one basketball game, the accuser was introduced and photographed with Kobe Bryant. The boy “was smart, cunning at times, but I always overlooked it because he was just a little kid,” Tucker said, explaining how the boy would manipulate his illness. “Chris, let me have this,” Tucker testified. “Let me have this. Come on, I’m not feeling great.” At one point, the actor, known for such films as the “Rush Hour” series with Jackie Chan and the science fiction thriller “The Fifth Element,” said he brought the family to Las Vegas to watch him work on a film. The family stayed a long time at his expense, Tucker said. “I was hoping they” weren’t taking advantage, he testified.
At another point, Tucker said, his doubts grew. The family was complaining it needed personal transportation, so Tucker tried to make arrangements to give them one of his unneeded vehicles. “I started getting nervous,” Tucker said. The mother “started crying, not in the normal way. She started acting like frantically, like mentally. Something wasn’t right.” After a British documentary aired in early February 2003, Tucker said the accuser called him for help in getting to see Jackson, who was in Miami. On the documentary, Jackson is shown holding hands with the boy. The pop star also explained how he slept innocently with children.
Tucker said he arranged for the family to fly on his chartered plane and he brought them to the hotel, where he took Jackson aside to warn him about the mother’s emotional grasp. The mother “was frantically saying the same thing, ‘Michael is the father,’ ‘Chris is the brother.’ That’s why I took Michael to the room and said, ‘Something ain’t right.’ I hadn’t even been around her that much. It was just getting to be a little too much,” Tucker testified. Going through notebooks about a year ago, he said he found the family’s phone number, so he called the accuser. “I heard someone in the background say, ‘Get off that phone now!’ Tucker said, adding he thought the voice was the mother’s.
