Two men indicted over secret recording of Michael Jackson on flight

Two employees of the company that managed Michael Jackson's private jet face federal charges over secretly filming him in 2003 and trying to sell the footage.

Two men have been indicted on federal charges for secretly recording Michael Jackson two years ago as he flew to Santa Barbara to surrender to police who were then embarking on that child molestation investigation. The video of Jacko reportedly showed him talking to his attorney about the then new child abuse allegations. Employees of the company who managed the private jet apparently tried to sell the footage to the media, causing the FBI to step in to see if the video had been filmed illegally. It is two of those employees - Arvel Jett Reeves and Jeffrey Borer - who now face the federal charges, for conspiracy, endeavoring to intercept oral communication and witness tampering.
