"I heard a comedian make a joke about Michael Jackson that was so true: he said we love michael so much we let the first kids slide."

The show was: Chris Rock - Never Scared. Its absolute classic stand-up stuff. I recommend it to everyone here!

MJ is definately stupid for leaving himself open to these accusations. If I was him, after the first case, I would have closed up Neverland to kids, or lined the place with chaperones.

But I'm not 100% sure that he's guilty. The boy and his mother has already pocketed $137 500 from out of court settlements. According to them, they tried to steal stuff from JC Penney's (a US retailer) and the boy got beaten, while his mother was sexually molested. JC Penney settled out of court. This family is either really unlucky, or a bunch of out-of-court settlement chasers.

"Its about time the courts make him accountable for his actions and stop ignoring them because of his money. Ok one of the kids might have been leing, but when you have multiple kids filing the same charges, what does that tell you?"

From experience, not very much. I know someone (he's white, so this wasn't a racist thing) who's father had a job that put him in contact with a lot of women on his own (I'm being deliberately vague, in case they read this post one day) - he was falsely accused of indecent assault by a whole bunch of them. Most of the accusations were blown apart in court, but the jury believed one of the witnesses. So he lost his job. We love to quote that "there's no smoke without a fire" but that thinking doesn't always work when you have a prosecution that slings as much mud as possible in the hope that some of it will stick.

"The only reason why michael is still walking the street is because he is rich."

No - the reason MJ is still walking the streets is because the case hasn't been decided yet. I want to hear all the evidence against him, and his own defence before I come to a conclusion about his guilt. Fortunately, so do the courts.

@ Conscience Sis - I'm not going after you, I promise - I might disagree with you, but the topics you're posting are interesting!
