Jermaine Jackson, the brother of American pop singer Michael Jackson and a member of the group The Jackson 5, has been accused of sexual assault. The allegations were made by a woman named Rita Barrett, who claims that in 1988, the artist broke into her home, used force against her, and subjected her to sexual violence. According to Barrett, she prayed to God and feared for her life during the incident. After committing the crime, Jackson left her house.

Barrett also stated that she informed Berry Gordy, the founder of Motown Records, about the incident. Gordy, who had friendly relations with Barrett's husband and collaborated with the Jacksons, did not defend the alleged victim and tried to cover up the case. The article mentions that the label founder received significant financial benefits from working with the Jacksons and that their reputation damage was not in his interest.

This accusation comes in the wake of other high-profile cases of sexual harassment, including the recent allegations against actor Vin Diesel, known for his roles in the 'Fast & Furious' films.
