Jackson boy's family 'did not raise alarm'

The family of Michael Jackson's accuser never complained about being held captive during trips away from the singer's ranch, his trial heard.

Gavin Arvizo, his brother Star and mother Janet were taken for dental and beauty treatments during the time they claim to have been held against their will, the Santa Maria court was told.

A string of witnesses testified that despite being away from Jackson's minders, the family never raised the alarm.

Beauty therapist Carole McCoy said she had given Mrs Arvizo a full body wax and that at no time did she appeared to be worried.

The trial continues.
