THE SENTENCING of a a predatory Oldbury pervert who kidnapped, imprisoned and sexually assaulted a 10-year-old-boy has been put off till next week.
Michael Jackson’s kidnapping of the boy led to a huge anti-paedophile protest in Oldbury last year and it has since emerged he abducted a 11-year-old girl locally.
The former pirate radio DJ, who changed his name by deed poll to impress an ex-love, was due to appear at Wolverhampton Crown Court this morning, but a techical problem with a video link meant the hearing was put off till next Monday (November 5).
Jackson, aged 50, formerly of Lowrey Court, Bristnall Hall Road, admitted kidnapping the boy, false imprisonment, sexual assault, kidnapping with intent to commit a sexual offence and abducting the schoolgirl at an earlier hearing.
He has been remanded in custody.
