I can't understand how anyone can support this man.... There is a lady letting doves out of damn cage as the verdict was read. How can someone be so dumb let alone an entire state of fuc***g morons. I will never go to CA in my life have no desire to be surrounded by idiots. This may be a little out of line but we should sell CA to Hollywood cause laws obviously don't apply to all of the celebs in the state. Also ashamed of Jay Leno and any other celeb who defended this man I hope you all feel great. PERV DEFENDERS OF CA UNITE!!!!!

Nobody listens to MJ anymore anyway. Nobody listens to his kind of pop. They want rap.

[CheneyChick]

LOL - I was waiting for that....

I thought they'd nail him on the Jesus juice. But apparently, they had more info than the media bothered to report.

[spectre]

Drudge is a sick-o. I'm glad he doesn't link to FR. I won't give him a hit and go and look.

[finnman69]

No offense, really, but you seem to have an inflated idea of how much even "good" defense attorneys can achieve with a guilty client.

You sure about that?

[CFC__VRWC]

I think they still like him is southeast Asia, however. Go figure.

Let him go live there then. He can diddle all the little boys he wants there and they'll just look the other way. And if he happens to play with the wrong one and come down with AIDS, too friggin' bad.

[roses of sharon]

If I had just let a child molester off, I wouldn't meet with the press either!

[prairiebreeze]

LOL!

[Saundra Duffy]

I'm sorry but I agree with you. The prosecutor had a sick ventetta - it was an ego thing IMHO. The boy's mom is a con artist IMHO. It was all about money. Jackson is weird but I never thought he was that evil.

[Smogger]

Oh well gee if someone disagrees with the jury they are all obviously idiots.

[george wythe]

I do also think that the mother of the boy totally destroyed the case for the prosecution

When the jurors are interviewed later tonight, they will probably say exactly that.

The mother was not a likable character at all.

I feel sad for the boy; he has to go back to a dysfunctional family, while the pedophile walks.

[WeddingPlanner]

Agreed.

[You Dirty Rats]

I guess the "experts" who drew conclusions from the observation that the jurors were looking at the judge and not MJ were not as smart as they thought.

[Not A Snowbird]

So giving Jesus Juice to little boys is ok w/you? THAT was proven.

Didn't the one flight attendant recant under cross and say she didn't actually see it? That's enough for reasonable doubt.

[MadIvan]

It follows that if one part of the case was obliterated because of doubts about the accuser, all of it was obliterated.

Regards, Ivan

[bannie]

New precedence.

[johnb838]

France.

[onyx]

Exactly right. The jury had to weigh the family's believability, and they flunked.

[Peach]

California has a problem convicting celebrities. Or maybe you hadn't noticed.
