Evan Chandler was an American screenwriter and dentist. He was best known for accusing the American singer Michael Jackson of sexually abusing his son Jordan Chandler in 1993.

Career

Chandler wrote the 1993 movie Robin Hood: Men in Tights. In her book Shockaholic, Carrie Fisher said that Chandler was her dentist.[1]

Accusations against Michael Jackson

In 1993, Chandler accused the American singer Michael Jackson of molesting his son Jordan. Jordan had made the hebephilia allegations after taking sodium amytal. The 1993 molestation case ended in 1994 after Jackson reached a settlement with Chandler for a reported U.S. $20 million. Jordan legally emancipated himself from his parents in 1995.[2]

An article in USA Today said that Chandler tried to sue Jackson again in 1996, but the case was dismissed in 1998. In 2006, Jordan took out a restraining order against his dad after claiming that he attacked him with a dumbbell weight.[3]

Death

Chandler shot himself in the head on November 5, 2009. He suffered from depression for many years.[4]
