“I urge you all to ignore the trash and the parasites who make a career trying to slander my father.”

She continued: “The most pure people are always torn down. It will continue to be proven that my beloved father has always been and forever will be innocent.”

The song Scream by her father was a track against media coverage, which branded Michael “Wacko Jacko.”

It also addressed sex abuse allegations he faced in 1993, for which he was not charged.

In the song he says: “Tired of injustice, Tired of the schemes. The lies are disgusting, So what does it mean? Kicking me down, I got to get up. As jacked as it sounds, The whole system sucks.”

Amongst them were pictures of men and women in bondage, as well as videos and books, scenes of same sex sadomasochism and erotic images of young men and teenagers.

Michael was investigated due to a young boy claiming he had been sexually abused and assaulted by the singer.

He was acquitted of molestation charged in 2005.

The singer’s estate said in response to the materials being published, it was just another way Michael's “good name” was being dragged through the mud.”

Paris has always been a staunch supporter of her father – just last month she had a new tattoo on her arm – which was a depiction of the cover of Michael’s 1991 Dangerous album.

Posting a photo of the work on Instagram she captioned the shot: “Never forget your roots, and always be proud of where you came from.”

Michael died at his home in Holmby Hills, Beverly Hills, aged 48.

His daughter Paris was eleven at the time, her brother Prince was twelve.

They both saw people attempt to resuscitate Michael, whose cause of death was ruled as propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication caused by drugs prescribed to him by Dr. Conrad Murray.

He was convicted to four years for involuntary manslaughter in 2011, but released in 2013.
