"What? You have GOT to be kidding."
Read some information about the accusor and his mother. They aren't exactly cridible witnesses. His mother appears to be a con artist with a history.
There's no real physical evidence of what they're accusing him of doing.
The kid once made false charges against his mother of abuse to the Department of Child Services.
Read up on the case a little bit.
If Jackson did molest boys, I hope they come forward and he gets sent to prison for it.
However, this particular claim doesn't seem credible.
I suspect that Jackson will win the case, and then go back to being shunned by most everyone because he acts like a freak.
Okay, I'll pursue this with you a bit longer. But I'm not going to continue the debate.
The child told the police where Jackson kept his pornographic material -- in 3 different places in his bedroom and lounge. The police looked -- and they found the porno, exactly where the child said it was.
I guess it was a lucky guess. Wrong. Jackson is a child molester. He gives them "Jesus juice" which is alcoholic, and he shows them porno material and he masterbates them.
He will be found guilty. He wasn't able to "buy his way" out of it this time. The law has been changed so that even IF the parents didn't pursue the charge (no matter how much money Jackson gave the parents), the government could still charge him with abuse. That is exactly what has happened.
It is true there are parents who, under these conditions, might try to exhort money from Jackson. It stands to reason that only unscrupulous parents would turn their children over to Jackson, in the first place.
But no matter the character of the parents -- it does not excuse Jackson's behavior, nor protect him from being prosecuted.
If the parents are found to be complicit in the abuse, so be it. I have no problem with the parents being charged, also. Disgusting to think of this child having to endure this treatment, whether or not his parents were involved.
I'm just curious. Are you in the camp which thinks that O.J. was wrongly charged with murder?
