Jeffrey Borer, the man accused of setting up cameras and secretly filming Michael Jackson in his private jet, was found guilty yesterday.

Borer, 60, will have to pay $10,000 (£5,300) and spend 6 months in home detention

Borer, who at the time owned private jet firm XtraJet, ordered employee Arvel Jett Reeves to buy and install two cameras on Jacksons plane. Borer planned to “sell these recordings to the media for a large sum of money”, the court was told.

Unfortunately for Borer, the recordings were made without sound due to Reeves not purchasing the correct microphone connectors.

In July Reeves was sentenced to eight months in prison whilst Borer avoided custody as he has to care for his ill wife.
