Michael Jackson Verdict Watch (Live Thread-[Update-Not Guilty ALL Counts])

Court TV; MSNBC; Fox ^ | June 3, 2005

[Howlin]

Bayliffs being sworn in, alternatives have been sent home!

This circus is about to be in the hands of the jury!

Bets? Predictions?

[redangus]

From everything I have seen in the interviews with the jurors, they didn't like the mother so MJ walks. It turned out that he was never the one on trial after the mother snapped her finger at one of the jurors. Case closed, she's unstable so a pervert walks. I agree with AIT this country is swirling faster everyday. If any of us had been in MJ's place, with the evidence presented, we would be introducing ourselves to Charlie Manson right about now, but if you're a rich celebrity you walk.

[BigSkyFreeper]

I have no idea how they're going to live their decision down in their conscience. Deep in my heart, I had MJ down as guilty as sin, but the fact he got off scot-free did not surprise me in the least.

[Born in a Rage]

if you're a rich celebrity you walk

It sure appears that way. I'm sure there are many people in prison who were convicted on less evidence than there was against MJ.

It's sickening, really.

[BigSkyFreeper]

He feels that "MICHAEL JACKSON has probably molested boys"....oh sweet lord.

Obviously in the eyes of Juror #1, pedophilia is "A-O-K".

[Born in a Rage]

What kind of country are we living in where you get threatened with rape and HIV in prison (the prison system needs to be reformed too, but that's a different story) for driving on a few beers while child-molesting, psychotic filth gets to run free.

The United States of America.

Hard to believe, isn't it?

[Doe Eyes]

I assume some of you guys saw the female juror who said she "couldn't imagine how a mother would allow a young son to spend the night with Jackson."

Well, WHY NOT?? BECAUSE HE MIGHT BE MOLESTED, you CLUELESS IDIOT!!

I'm not following your logic.

[Syncro]

You're right.

Jackson wasn't on trial, the Mother of the victim was.

Once the Defense got it turned around so that Jacko wasn't the one on trial, it was all over.

The jurors convicted her, so they had to let Michael go. A shame. Not that she was a saint.

That being said, I believe it is Keith Olderman that had the Jackson Puppet theatre on his show. Tonight it was interesting.

His Uncle Jesse comes to quart to speak up for him. His spiritual advizor don'tcha know...

Trump comes by to tell Jacko that he has fired the Mother of the accuser

Larry King does a drive-by...

McCaluly MacCally Calcun is still a freaked out 12 yr old...

In the ride home, Jackson realizes he can take off his mask

Unveiled as Billy O'???

[Miss Marple]

My logic: She didn't think he was guilty, yet she thought no woman in her right mind would let a son sleep with Michael Jackson. This is a huge disconnect, if you ask me.

[Earthdweller]

I'm so glad we don't have to watch this cr@p on the news any more!!!

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Well, I guess after hearing all those big celeb character witnesses from Hollyweird, the jury chickened out. Probably had some hardcore holdouts. Fingerprints by both Jackson and his alleged victim in a kiddie porn mag, plying the minor with alcoholic beverages, telling the public he sleeps with little boys-- even after having to settle a molestation suit before. Witnesses of face-licking allegedly discredited. Massive evidence of mental instability. Most people with all that evidence on them would get convicted or be locked up in the psycho ward in any state but Taxapukus, perhaps even there.

But we have our kamizars in the US today. Just like Bill Clinton is some 'wonderful guy' after all the junk he was caught doing, such as pardoning a crack dealer for cash, Michael Jackson is a member of the kamizar class.

[veronica]

WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS WHAT I THINK OF THESE RUBES!

Three of them have graduate degrees.

[Guenevere]

#4151...and your point is?

[the Deejay]

Apparently, the jury does not believe he is innocent.

[the Deejay]

The good thing is that the jury of public opinion has convicted him, just as they did OJ. I believe this.

Right. And "public opinion," carries a lot of weight.

[the Deejay]

Are you watching these wacko's arguing about the results of the trial on Hannity and Colmes?

I think I OD on the wackos making their rounds on the fallout.

aacckkkkk!!!! LOL

[the Deejay]

Geraldo is acting like he won the case himself.

He bombed in Aruba, b/c LE doesn't think Geraldo is the be all/end all he thinks he is.

Aruba wasn't about to give Geraldo any info. Whether they have info or not.

[spectre]

So Geraldo took his toys and went home. No story, nothing to break.

I pray Michael Jackson just disappears off the radar. This freak show makes me ill and I've heard enough of him.

I pray that case in Aruba gets resolved.

The Michael Jackson case is a lost cause.

[the Deejay]

Geraldo took his toys and went home.

Yep.

" No story, nothing to break."

Nothing.

Total waste of money for Fox to send him down there.

Rick Leventhal is still down there.

Matter of fact, it appears the Natalee story isn't moving at all.

It seems to be at a standstill..

[the Deejay]

I pray Michael Jackson just disappears off the radar. This freak show makes me ill and I've heard enough of him.

Me, too.

I've never liked him. Except when he was about 6 yrs. old. He was cute back then, but turned himself into a freak show.

He's never gotten a cent of my money.

My kids never cared about MJ, either.

[the Deejay]

graduate degrees.

Does not equal common sense.

As a juror, one does not leave common sense at the door.
