5 PR cases [*]

PR-01 Alice Liddell: “He was the kindest friend a child could have.” 
In a BBC-documentary, Vanessa Tait, great-granddaughter of Alice Liddell says, “My understanding is that he was in love with Alice, but he was so repressed that he never would have transgressed any boundaries."

PR-02 David Hemmings: He was incredibly warm to me 
"He was incredibly warm to me, yes. Was he infatuated with me? Yes, he was. He was a gentleman; there was no sort of overt sexuality about it whatsoever. It was a very kind and very loving and very gentle relationship."

PR-03 David Steinberg: “There was a special energy about her.” 
As a teenager, Steinberg had a platonic bond with a high school teacher. "We all knew that there was a special energy about her and we enjoyed being near her so we could feel the radiance of it, share it, reflect it, imitate it to some degree"

PR-04 He was a good pedophile - by Anonymous
"He was the nicest man I had ever met! He was a good pedophile, and we were very good friends. I loved him and he loved me! But there was nothing sexual about it! There's nothing wrong with that at all."

PR-05 Khash 
He was a good man and he treated me as a friend.... not an object and not a sex partner but a friend.

Note from the author:
One case of a platonic relationship, that of Macaulay Culkin who shared his experiences with a platonic relationship with Michael Jackson has been removed from this section, because of new allegations about serious misconduct of Jackson, as discussed in the documentary Leaving Neverland of 2019.
The point is not that Michael Jackson probably had sex with boys, but that he also quite probably misled and manipulated those boys, which would have caused them considerable psychological damage. Among other things, the former children speak of strong feelings of confusion, shame, and guilt.
