Journalist files for
bankruptcy after suit
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A free
lance journalist who lost a slan
der lawsuit brought by Michael
Jackson has filed for bankrupt
cy protection.
The move automatically put on
hold a trial to determine how
much Victor Gutierrez owes Jack-
son in damages.
Jackson contended Gutierrez lied in a 1995
appearance on TV’s “Hard Copy” when he
claimed he saw a 27-minute videotape that pur
portedly showed the singer having sex with a
13-year-old boy.
Gutierrez refused to reveal the source of the
tape, and a judge found the writer liable for
damages. A jury was to determine the amount.
