what do you think?
do you think he's guilty?
I don't know but I don't think he is guilty, honestly.
why not?
I'm not sure that he's guilty, but the fact he's having to proove his innosence is really his own fault. You make yourself vulnerable it won't be long until someone exposes your vulnerability especially if you're famous.
I'm absolutely sure he's guilty look how he's using his health problems to delay the jury, if he had nothing to fear, he wouldn't need to use such a desperate tactic.
actually good point.
i never actually thort of tjat
I don't think he's guilty because firstly, I think he spends a lot of time with children because he feels he wants to live the childhood he didn't have. I mean, why would he do that and have his own little themepark going. And secondly, the person or people who said they were molested, well, I know the trials have been going on for awhile, but if it were true, why are they still going on? That doesn't make sense to me. And also, they make it look like just having a child in one's bed means he's doing anything to them. I used to sleep in other people's beds beside them when I spent the night at their houses; it doesn't mean we did anything together. My youngest brother had used to sleep with our mom or dad or my brothers and I slept in the same bed; that doesn't mean anything either. I don't know; I think they're just makeing a big thing out of something like that. And as I said, if the accusations of sexual abuse were true, I would think it wouldn't be taking so long to do something about it. Martha Stewart is also famous, and she did something wrong, and it didn't take too long for them to find her guilty on her thing, even though it was that she'd lied about some stocks or something like that. So anyways, I doubt Michael Jackson is guilty.

M.J. as guilty as sin.. Personally i hope he rots in jail for what he did to those kids. Did you show the emotional testimony the prosecution showed in closing of the boy's deposition to police? A 13 year old don't put o n a show like that. And the idea they slept in his bed all the time, he brought them milk and cookies, and all that, a 13 year old kid isn't into all that. When you are 13, you are energetic, always moving. MAybe I am crazy? But as for him actually going to jail, He will be found guilty of some, but guys, the guy will not be in a deep dark jail cell. He gets up at 6:00, eats, can go out sides, eats a bag lunch can go outside again, can watch tv, eats dinner, can go outside again or watch tv, has to be in his cell at 10:00 can watch tv and listen to the radio as much as he wants anytim of the day. People, M.J. will livve a better life in jail than many average people.
No he will be raped molested raped allowed to go outside molested have breakfast,a visit to the doctor to delay his next rape in between visits from his highly overpaid lawyer...
Don't know, it#s just because I followed the trial a little bit and many people said he's not. Earlier, as the trial began and nobody said anything, I mean, nobody who participated at the trial, I thought he was guilty. But I heard that so many people in the trial said he is innocent.
Tinkerbell may i ask a couple of questions? well i will anyway and you can answer them if you wish! *laughs*
firstly when you say that you spent the night in other peoples beds while staying over with friends do you mean that you were in your friends beds with them? or in there parents beds with there parents? there is a discernible difference between sharing with kids and with adults!
secondly, surely you must be able to appreciate the difference between sleeping in the same bed as your own parents and sleeping in the same bed as a relative stranger?
so far as i am concerned if i chose to bring young teenage boys back to my home and spent the night in the same bed as them, i'd expect to come under some pretty serious scrutiny at some point from the authorities! just because he's rich, famous and clearly a parking ticket short of a fine! doesn't mean that he shouldn't!
aside from anything else, if finding him guilty means that he won't release another shite album on the world then isn't that reason enough to lock him away?
lol Harp. I was thinking the exact same things when i read the posts. I as getting ready to say the same things before getting to your pst. So you said it for me. Couldn't agree more! smile- angel
Yes, I had to sleep in the same bed with my friends and family sometimes. And yeah, I guess you're right that there would be a difference between sleeping with family vs strangers. I don't know. It's crappy that we automatically think that there must be something sexual going on in the strangers' case, even if there's not. (I'm not saying for definitely sure that he's not guilty because I don't want to make assumptions on that in general by giving a definite answer.) But yeah, that's just how things are, and I'll admit you have a point on the sleeping part. as for his arrests preventing him from releasing "shite albums", that's really not a big thing to me personally because I like his music anyway. *smiles*

I think it'd be good if he was found guilty. I just want to watch all those tears which will fall from the faces of all his stupid fans who instead of getting on with their own lives have been holding viduals outside the court.
I agree that viduals seem like too much, and even though I'm a fan, I doubt I would go thru all that because I don't see how that would change anything. If I were really that into the trials, I would just pray about it on my own, but most of the time, I don't even intentionally follow the trial anymore. If it comes out on the news, I'll watch it, but otherwise, I just hope it ends fairly.

First of all, about Martha Stewart...If you can call 5 months a jail sentence, I don't know who you're kidding, but that's not a sentence. The reason she got off so easy is because she's rich and famous. The same applies with Michael Jackson. He absolutely is guilty. True, just because someone sleeps in the same bed as someone else doesn't mean they were doing anything sexual, but I see no reason for those kids to lie either. And even if Michael Jackson didn't have a childhood, then let me ask you why he joined the band Jackson5 at such a young age? I mean, wouldn't you think that you wouldn't be able to cope with fame and success at that age, and maybe that's why he didn't have a childhood? I don't think he should be getting off easy...But you watch. He will, because he's famous. I know someone who has autism (so he doesn't know any better and I'm certainly not blaming him) who had a Michael Jackson fetish for a time...Then when all this started he started getting harrassed about his "obsession". So people had to explain to him what it meant. Now today I saw him on the computer at my school and he was listening to some interview with him. Even though there's still people trying to tell him that being such an open fan of him might not be the best thing.
hmm being a fan isn't a bad thing necessarily, but even fans have to stand dup and realize when their "idols" have done something wrong. And as for martha stuart, different topic different time..
He is expecting a full acquittal.But if your man is so confident, why then, has he invested so much time in these obstructive delaying tactics. He's obviously very mixed up and in need of a great deal of help, which he will not recieve in jail, if he is convincted I sincerely hope they treat him like any other paedophile and not like a millionaire celebrity,because that would undoubtedly cause uproar in the nick...
Well, throughout this trial, all people have said is, he’s done it so many times before, therefore, he must be guilty. But the fact of the matter is, although alagations have been made, they have never gone to criminal proceedings, and why is that? It’s because on previous occasions, out of court settlements have been made, and large sums of money have been paid to the people who have made these alagations. Now we all know that money talks, and we all know that some people will do virtually anything for money. Now let me ask you something. If you were a parent, and your child was sexually abused by someone, how much money would It take for you to not press criminal charges against that person? I’ll tell you. As a parent, there is no amount of money in the world that would prevent me from seaking justice for my child if he had had to go through something like that. Because if he did it to one child, then he could do it again, and if I was the parent of a child who had had to go through that, I would want to make damn sure that no other child ever had to go through the same. Now I am not for one minute disputing the fact that Michael Jackson has some serious mental and emotional issues, and I am also not saying that it’s right to share a bed with young teenage boys, but the fact remains, that in reality, Michael Jackson still sees himself as a child, and therefore, he doesn’t see sharing a bed with other young boys as being wrong. In all the evidence that has been presented by the prosecution, virtually every witness has some sort of axe to grind, and would have reason to stand up against him. Actually I’m not sure he’s guilty, not of sexual abuce anyway, he needs help though, professional help, but sadly I don’t think he’d get that in jail.
