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?

[Hildy]

No, he walks because the State did not prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt. This is America, correct?

[Dansong]

Are not child molesters found guilty everyday and everywhere with no other evidence than the word of the accuser?

[kidd]

I predict that Micheal Jackson will get off.

What the jury decides is another story...

[boomop1]

He walks, "if da glove don't fit", and other lies.

[Howlin]

Yes, I do. Don't ask me why, but I do.

The reporters are saying whatever happens, the court closes today at 2:30 PDT.

[scott7278]

That pretty much narrows it down. Hey, who is gonna play Michael in the movie about all this? OJ?

Joan Rivers.

[Former Proud Canadian]

So who is the kid on the left?

[Renegade]

Is that a "well hung" jury??

[pnz1]

I thought I heard there were no black jurors?

[Max Flatow]

Where's Rita Crosby when we need her? She's the only one who will be able to interpret the decision for us!

[alisasny]

He should be convicted but I highly doubt it.

Its a sad sad day that a man can molest a child with no consequence. Lets hope I am wrong.

[MrLee]

Now on to Phil Spector. Innocent or guilty?

Another weirdo, but not a murderer.

[pnz1]

I think he'll have to take another trip to the hospital before the verdict is in.

[Veto!]

The jury's hung? Isn't that a bit risqué to post on Free Republic?

The virdict will be guilty. It won't take long.

[scott7278]

Good set up, huh?

[kcvl]

Jackson looks awful!

[job]

What prosecutorial mistakes, Mr. Darrow? And what is your background to judge such "mistake?" (Law & Order episodes don't count.)

[kromike]

Agreed.

Someone should start a Suicide Pool. Normally, that's in very poor taste, but with Wacko Jacko...ehh, who cares if it's in poor taste.

[tfecw]

Perhaps you were paying closer attention. I don't know how it didn't get thrown out. Got a good link with a rundown? I admit i didn't follow it with my magnified glass and a law degree. From what I can tell we've got a bunch of liars accusing another liar/freak of doing something.
