With half an hour to go before the verdict is read, I believe this slime will be found not guilty. It's terrible but this shall be another OJ. If by some chance he is convicted, I'm SURE we'll have to be subjected to all the Whacko fans crying "Foul" and that idiot Jesse Jackson calling it unfair ::)

How is this 'another OJ'?  Was Robert Blake 'another OJ'?  If Phil Spector gets off, will that be 'another OJ'?

If the jury has decided on the verdict, in my opinion he will be free from the main charges, but will still be guilty of supply alcohol to the children and having the pornographic magazine.

I deem them all "OJ" for the simple fact that I believe OJ got away with a crime. It's what many people label a verdict that frees a guilty person. I hope Spector fries, am sickened by the Robert Blake case and have given up that the United States cannot grab that slime producer Roman Polanski for raping a child and escaping to France ::)

Robert Blake isn't another O.J.Those "witnesses" were crooks who couldn't even get their stories in line.

Oh.  In the 50's they used to call those 'Klan acquitals'.

I agree they were crooks but I still think he did it :-\\

He has arrived!

I KNOW you're not calling me a white supremist? OJ AND this trial have NOTHING to do with race. OJ committed a double murder and Michael boffed little boys...BTW, I thought Scott Peterson was guilty as well ;)

What?  How am I calling you a white supremacist? I don't know if you're black, blue or green.

Sorry for misunderstanding. I got that from your 50's comment :-\\ I apologize...

The verdict that was supposed to be read 30 minutes ago but as usual Jackson was late showing up. Gee, most people late for court get some kind of fine ::)

Not guilty ::)

Not guilty on all accounts!

Not guilty on all accounts!
Just as I thought the jury would find him :D

Well I'm glad that it's over. Now he can get back to making music I hope.

I also hope that a certain someone doesn't come back and start shooting their mouth off about how right they were. ::)

I wonder how much of a following he will have now though? I mean, will people still buy his music?



Erin :)

Probably even more.  Scandal is always good for sales.  I thought they would get him on the lesser
charge of serving alcohol to a minor.  The defense must have done an outstanding job.

I'm sorry it didn't go as you would like Mark. But the sad truth is 1) the prosecution was weak and 2)it was a botched up frame job from the plaintiff's mother, who only cared for the bottom line (Jacko's money). I still think he's a perv, but at least in this case he deserved the benefit of a doubt. The real losers are the young Jacko fans whom might have been "touched" by The Gloved One himself. We'll never really :( know what actually goes on in Neverland Ranch.

Bravo Indy - well said! And since I am incredibly lazy, you saved me the trouble of saying it...  ;)

I knew it! they sooo can't hold that guy!

If the sales of his last effort were anything to go by, they already don't...

Yeah well, I don't have to eat any crow because I knew he'd get off ::) He may be not guilty to that jury but I  still think he's a nut :D I just wish they could've done SOMETHING, like only allowing young boys there with other adults around. I'm actually glad it's all over so he can go back to his ranch and be back out of the news :)

If the sales of his last effort were anything to go by, they already don't...
I won't even buy "Thriller" at the bargain bin ::)

Finally, the whole thing is over....  ::)

Finally, the whole thing is over....  ::)


Not quite...

There's still the little lawyer's 'bill' to pay...

Well I'm glad that it's over. Now he can get back to making music I hope.


I'm glad it's over too. But I don't care if he never makes a song again.. I just don't wanna hear about this again.. and I KNOW it'll show up in another 5-10 years. Oy..

Not quite...

There's still the little lawyer's 'bill' to pay...
And the jury and judge....kidding :o ;D

Wow. I must be the only one hear whose relieved that this child molestation sh!t (pardon my french) is over with    ???.

Let me first start by saying that I like Michael's music but I never cared much for the person. I believe that while he began super young in the music industry, his mind was robbed in the suggested case of arrested development. The poor guy, how can anyone not feel sorry for him? It's not like any of us have to deal with this child molestation allegations!

Does anyone remember the Martin Bashir interview in February 2003? Of course, like-minded individuals will agree that it isn't correct to allow prepubescent boys into bed with you but honestly, let's give MJ the benefit of a doubt, we all know that he isn't right in the head (ie-emotionally/mentally disturbed).  :o

What he should do know is sell the Neverland Ranch (who would want to stay there w/ terrible memories of being accused?!) & invest in some big-time therapy sessions to heal himself.

Now, Thriller or Invincible rather will probably re-enter the Billboard charts, I only own 3 of his records (Off the Wall, Thriller, & I stopped at Bad!) & he will most likely shun his naysayers by recording his last album & having it become a #1 hit (which will most likely happen!) But this just goes to show you that reputation fades (as Michael's has been permanently damaged) & no matter what, he will always have this accusation hanging over his head. (because face it: NONE of us except MJ know what happened in his room @ Neverland)

I believe it was a fair trial. 'Nuff said.

It's possible he'll write a biography OR make another record.

I believe it was a fair trial. 'Nuff said.
I respect your opinion but don't share it :-\\

What if he had gone to jail,his career might have been over. ::)

Wow! Too bad this wasn't done yesterday. That was the 10 year anniversary of OJ murdering Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. The prosecution screwed that case up as well and another criminal walked ::)

The prosecution screwed that case up as well and another criminal walked ::)


That's what it all comes down to, the prosecution being so sure of itself and not doing all it takes on
a case like this. Llook at the family they decide to go ahead with.  They were so obviously out for a payoff, and they thought this trial would assure them a bigger take. Maybe MJ will retire to Neverland.
Anyone who allows their child to be left in his company should be the ones who are prosecuted.  He may begin to feel himself invincible and pull all the stops, or maybe he is scared to do anything more, either way I wouldn't want to be the one to test those waters.

So now what's going to happen with MJ's music career? ???

I think the family were jerks as well. Yeah, hopefully he'll FINALLY learn to stop putting himself in that position...common sense is not something he has ::)

Well, I don't what others think of his "Music" but I haven't bothered with him for years. Of course, I never thought he was all that anyway :P

There was talk on the radio of him doing cabaret at Las Vegas, or even selling off the rights to the circa 200 Beatles songs he owns, for he is at a shortfall of around $19m.

Hopefully Paul and Ringo can get the rights back so thier songs can no longer be used in commercials, which was the Fab Four's wish. That is just another of the many reasons I can't stand the little creep >:(

I'm not surprised that Michael was aquitted.I mean,Janet Arviso and her son Gavin swore that Michael wasn't the type of person who would molest a child.Then they turn around and say he did.maybe Michael jackson really does call wine "Jesus juice',but it sounds a little fanciful to me.Also,it seemed Janet Arviso kept coming up with more far-fetched stories about what went on.it just seems more people would have known about it,sooner,if it all happened.Janet didn't come across to the jurors as being likeable--they all hated her,apparently,and she seems to have a history of filing siuts.can anyone say "Anna Ayala"?I think if the prosecution investigated further,they would have easily found out what a jerk janet Arviso is.

I agree Marian, that family and the others are a joke, clearly on the make. I still don't feel any clearer though as to  what go's on at Neverland and I never will.

But my prediction is he will make a come back - BIG TIME and he will regain massive popularity.

I do think Michael is pretty weird,but that isn't a crime.It may be possible for anyone to be a pedophile,but the Arvisos were not the people tp prove it.I kind of think Gavin will publicly retract those statements when he's legal age and free from mommy's pursestrings--or when she gets busted for fraud and no longer controls him.

I agree - but I cannot ever get that creepy image of Gavin leaning in a very camp way next to Jackson in that Martin Bashir doc' it made my flesh creep - but you know something I reckon he was 'schooled' to do that by that scumbag he calls his mother.  Oh who knows.

If he's really a ped, being around so many kids all the time, it's kinda hard to believe some credible evidence wouldn't surface by now.  Only kids with greedy unscrupulous parents somehow have the courage to tell their story?  Hard to believe.

Yeah, the Beatles are sacred anti-commercialists.  They donated all their earnings to charity.  ;)

No, the Beatles agreed they'd never have thier songs used in commercials....since Whacko got a hold of the rights his cashing in, THAT is all I meant..but whatever http://community.the-underdogs.org/smiley/misc/rolleyes2.gif

i know what you mean.  it's just that selling the songs for commercials is made out like it's some morally disgraceful thing just because the beetles didn't want to use them that way, but he bought the rights and made money with them as he saw fit.  that's all I'm saying.  if they wanted to control the use, they should have kept the rights.

but i guess they wanted the MONEY.

it kind of made me think Gavin was kind of a little weenie,but yeah,his mom may well have coached a lot of stuff for him to say.

..yeah especially as she knew it was a specially made documentary for the BBC and she knew it would go to 'air'

She's have the perfect pose of them together - to be seen by millions.

Actually the Beatles recieved no money. MJ got the songs through an auction that was attended by Yoko, who was supposed to make sure they were able to keep them. I think it's a shame that after all those wonderful songs were written, they are now being used to make a molester more money. I agree with you that it shopuld've been handled differently. Paul was friends with Jacko in the 80's but after  he got the rights he refused contact from Paul. All McCartney was trying to do was to make an offer for them. It's sad all the way around though :-\\

I just thought this was so funny! ;D

Well, I don't understand that, between Yoko and all the guys still around at the time they must have had enough money to keep them around.  I also don't get how they all backed off and left it to Yoko to make sure they're legacy was protected.  They all barely tolerate her and suddenly they leave her responsible for protecting their interest.  Just another excuse to make her out to be the bad guy, I guess.  It's all a crock.

It was a bad decision...they made a mistake and they're human. MJ on the other hand has no reason to shut out Paul McCartney. Jackson is the only crock in the whole thing. He made millions with someone else's music and though it may be a good businees pratice, it is still cold, calculated and just plain mean.

That doesn't make sense.  :P

Sad he wasn't on trial for past molestations...as some jury members said they definately felt he has molested other young boys in the past >:(

That doesn't make sense.  :P



I meant cause he looks so ugly.
