I'm on the fence about him, as I haven't really dug into it, but i get the impression that it's mostly allegations without proof. His sister made some outlandish claims, but her credibility has been called intoquestion.

There were some settlements/payoffs, but I'm not going to speculate whether that was for covering something up, or if it was an attempt at appeasing people who just wanted a quick buck.

It can be said with certainty that he liked being around kids, possibly in a purely innocent manner. Anything beyond that is hard to say for certain. And the stories about kids sharing bedroom with him often fail to take into account that his bedroom was larger than most houses.

He asked them to show their butt holes and masturbated in front of them, so not as severe as rape but definitely sexual abuse (allegedly).

What swung it for me is when Louis Theroux said that anyone claiming he's not a pedophile is in denial. If you're willing to look the other way because "he made great music though", then shame on you.

Oh boy, yeah, a lot more came out about it. There's actually been a lot over the years, but a few years ago a pretty serious documentary came out about it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaving_Neverland
