Are those body parts he’s collected while vacationing in Tanzania?

Oh really? Is that because you were convinced of how flawless the judicial system was after the OJ and Robert Blake trials???

I may be in the minority here… but I think that the jury’s decision, if the question posed to them was “Did the prosecution prove it’s case against Michael Jackson?” did make the right decision. From what I saw and heard of the trial the prosecution did not have a clear, concise case– it went in a bunch of different directions and incorporated too many irrelevant conspiracy theories, etc. that clouded what could have been a clear strategy. I think Michael probably did it… but the jury, even if they agree in their hearts that he probably did it, was instructed not to come to a verdict based on that. They had to come to a verdict based on whether or not the prosecution proved their case beyond a reasonable doubt. I am worried that all the comments from the jurors about how they didn’t like the finger snapping and all that bullshit means they were jurors who were idiots and couldn’t decipher irrelevant things like finger-snapping from the extraction of facts. That does worry me. But even with all tha aside, I don’t know that the prosecution did prove their case. I don’t think anyone gave a flying fuck how Michael would fare in prison. They would have given him special privileges and his own little cushy cell anyway. They tend not to put “high-risk” prisoners in with the rest of the population.

Dawn??? Girl… think about what you’re saying! “If the parents of these children allow them to be around him then they get what ever comes at them”? I agree that you have to be mentally off to allow your child to go spend the night with any grown man, Michael Jackson in particular because we all know he was suspected of child molestation before and because it doesn’t take a NASA CIO to get that Mr. Jackson is completely off his rocker… but that definitely doesn’t mean that the children, who are the innocent victims in all this, deserve to be molested. It is the responsibility of the parents to protect their kids. It is the responsibility of Michael Jackson to not molest kids. The kids should be able to rely on their parents’ judgment to make decisions for them– decisions that will not put them in harm’s way. I think the parents who let their kids stay over at Jackson’s should have their heads examined, but in no way does that justify what happened to these kids.

I agree that this is all about money. Either the parents really don’t care if something bad happens to their kids because there are dollar signs at the end of the tunnel, or they become so infatuated with money and celebrity status, that their logic goes out the window and they don’t even think about the fact that they’re sending their children to stay over at a grown man’s house. Either way, this once again proves that a lot of the people in this country should simply not be parents. I feel bad for the kids too, and wonder as well how a parent could put anything over the welfare of their child.
