What if Safechuck is a victim and Wade just a con artist?

why can't you be both a victim and a money seeker?

Wade is no doubt full of shit. There are things that don't add up with Safechuck as well however, like saying that he was flown to New York and molested in February 89 after the Grammys when MJ performed. Problem is, MJ wasn't at the 89 Grammys, he performed at the 88 Grammys in LA (early March)... months before Safechuck said the first sexual acts occurred in Paris (late June).

So not only do the dates and location not add up, but the timeline doesn't add up even if you consider that he was talking about the 88 Grammys (which again, were in LA, not New York).

Also, the fact that Wade came out with his hand out for money in 2013, James no doubt likely wanted a piece of it as well, and filed his civil complaint not long after. I've read that he wasn't in a good financial situation at the time.
