This prosecutor did a reasonably decent job. But trying, in California, to win a conviction against a flaming fruitcake like Jackson and his $50 million defense is like trying to drop a six inch putt in the teeth of a 200 mph hurricane.
It's looks easy, but it ain't.
I'm a former prosecutor. Although I suffered only one outright acquittal in all my years as a prosecutor, I know full well how difficult the job is. I am not quick to find fault with most of them.
I don't trust the government, period.
Prosecutors can't choose the victims. People come in, having been the victim of a crime, and MJ chooses dysfunctional familes carefully..
