Neverland Ranch -- The Raid Photos

Posted Jul 10th 2009 4:20PM by TMZ Staff

The Santa Barbara County Sheriff's deputies who raided Michael Jackson's home in 2003 at Neverland Ranch had their hands full -- the place was a mess.

Neverland Ranch -- The Raid Photos
All these photos were taken inside the house, as deputies faced the daunting task of sifting through all of MJ's stuff.

By the way, most of the evidence involving drugs was never admitted at trial, because authorities felt it was not relevant to the molestation charge. Most of this evidence hasn't surfaced until we combed through tens of thousands of documents and photos.

46. I think you people are SOOOO gullible. These are pictures from AFTER the raid!!! You people have to really learn how to decifer false things from truth.

47. Not only was MJ mildly retarded, he was a hoarder as well. Also, much of all that stuff looks like you are going through a child's room!!! What is with all the male dolls?? That is just wrong!!!

48. What really concerns me and I'm shocked that nobody has brought this up yet is the fact that his 3 kids have been growing up with all these drugs and this mess in this house! I mean if everyone is saying there were drugs everywhere...then why on earth would you let Michael raise 3 kids in a house full of drugs? If the cops knew he had so many drugs everywhere and then did nothing to stop Michael from having his kids...they are also guilty of child endangerment! Then this mess to top it all off! How on earth could you let someone who is hooked on drugs and lives like this raise children! I'm pissed nobody did anything to protect those kids!

49. Here's a map to Michael/Barry Gordy's crypt (circled in pink). I highly doubt you'll be able to get back there now.

It's a tinypic URL so either copy or click on the link.

50. It looks like the same room over and over, maybe he had a room where he kind of threw everything. I'm sure his entire house did not look like that, and even if it did, none of you had to live with him so who cares. Let him rest, please, you guys helped victimize him in life, just let it go!

51. This man's brain was not functioning properly due to the drugs. A lot of addicts will look at these pictures and know that this is how THEY live. Any psychiatrist or addiction specialist could look at these photos, the evidence of drugs in the house and know an addict lved there. Why didn't the D.A. look into this? Why didn't the cops say where the heck was this man getting his drugs? Didn't anyone investigate? They were so focused on making MJ look like a perv they just chose to ignore all of this. Disgusting. Had ANYONE stepped in, he could have been helped.

52. Give me a break. All the "mess" looks like it's confined to a single room. Other photos show a neater house. I can imagine the messy room is nothing more than a junk room. A place where stuff just got thrown. The messy room doesn't imply or prove anything. In fact, publishing these pictures is nothing more than an invasion of privacy possible only because of the raid. TMZ should actually be ashamed. TMZ must be staffed by as***les.

53. no wonder he didn't want to return there. I remember in the trial they even ripped his mattress apart. they tore this place apart!

56. Whoever is saying that the place was only messy because the police searched it are wrong. Look around those rooms. There isn't anywhere to put all of that stuff. No shelves, no desk, not much of anything. Oh, and police don't take pics of rooms when they're done with them, they take pics *before* they touch them.

57. It doesn't seem like those pictures were really relevant to the case either. It looks more like they were interested in harassing and gawking.

58. that mannequin is not a boy....it's a girl dumbasses (check the make-up, the girly clothes and pink running shoes)

59. Damn, you'd think Jackson would have fired the maid for not keeping a clean house. I thought those were photos after the police went through the place looking for evidence.

60. ". Most of this evidence hasn't surfaced until we combed through tens of thousands of documents and photos."
yeah right as you looked for anything disparaging, you are the scum of the earth.
