Yep. But maybe not for the kiddie-fiddling stuff.

The build up (I've been watching for the last hour) may be comedy gold, but remember this is a serious case in which the possibility of childrens lives have been corrupted beyond belief by an adult they trusted or Jacko fiddled with children a sick offense.

I am tending to think he will get off because the whole thing is such a circus a certain and impartial verdict is not realistically attainable.

He will probably get done for a lesser charge like giving alcohol to the kids.

Yeah, Riiiight :lurk:
:angel: ?
Only the jury think he's innocent - it doesn't mean they weren't true. No smoke without fire. Miscarriage of justice etc.

They've just said that for every child that said he'd abused them, the defence produced one that said he didn't. That doesn't cancel out the ones who were abused. If five houses are on fire and five aren't, that doesn't mean the first five aren't still burning. Whatever, I don't believe the verdicts.

How do you think this will affect his career now? And will he still hang out with kids? Now that he's 'innocent'?

Jetfire, it's clearly suppose to be a white woman.

Still can't believe the sick s.o.b. got off on all cases... ...twice now apparently.

Muchas gracias to Mob for the Sig, proving why he's called 'King'.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.

Well the mother of the kids who said he fiddled them has a history of lying to celebs to get money and using her kids to do so I believe (Just heard off the BBC)

It could be a case of 'crying wolf' - just 'cos it may not have been true the other times, don't mean it ain't this time.
Now he'll think he can get away with it again.

Hey, several person's opinion of who has the better lawyer sounds good on paper. Oh wait...

To my dying day I'll never think him innocent.

I'm also going to be watching for news on suspicious jumps in account balances of the jury for the next year or so.

On the count of being a normal individual we find the defendant ..... mad as a brush.

.
So it's "safe" or "okay" for radio DJs to continue playing his music again.

.
Innocent or guilty, those obsessive MJ fans are scary people. Hilarious and frightening posters they're holding too.

I also think he was innocent. He's weird and sleeps with kids, but he's not a child molester. He's asexual.

They cry so easily. I don't care enough about stuff like that to break into tears about it. I never could understand why people cry about football, bunch of dump that it is.

I suppose MJ will have a few minors around to 'celebrate' tonight. He'll hire a video. Something by Disney. Perhaps he'll get 'a lad in'.

His musical career is probably over now, his last few records were pump so you could argue its been over for a while.

Didn't he end this trial horribly out of pocket though? Would be strange if he want bankrupt..

Brilliant.
This joke was around during the last molestation accusations about ten years ago. Along with 'Why doesn't he have some children? Oh, he HAS 'had' some children." :p
Glad I didn't have to wait TOO long to use these jokes again.

No doubt he'll release some crappy 'Thank You' song for his fans. :roll:

At least its over. I was tired of hearing about it.

Sadly though he's not going to jail.

Maybe he'll get hit by a schoolbus, you know, irony and all.

what I keep asking myself is.

Hes been accused of this before, this time he had was it 8 seperate charges of molesting a kiddy against him, and some other things too.

Now if this was just 1 thing and he beat it, fair enough. but for the police to bring 8 charges against him, thats alot of 'made up lies' or un true evidence to take to court.

Just seems alot of stuff for it all to be made up?

oh well, innocent, so i guess he is.
