If I were MJ, I wouldn't waste more than an hour before filing a countersuit against the prosecutor's office.

The damage this has done to his reputation, career, and financial wellbeing are incalculable. And I'm inclined to believe 12 independent jurors when they acquit on charges like this.

[WestVirginiaRebel]

I have to agree....this was not the best witness for the prosecution-a woman who had falsely accused K-Mart security of molesting her in the past and who kept changing her story. This still reeks, though.

[KentTrappedInLiberalSeattle]

They can declare that freakish, boy-hungry homunculus "innocent" for every last remaining nano-second between now and Doomsday.

It won't actually MAKE him any more "innocent," however.

[Texaggie79]

If what they had isn't evidence enough to convict someone of child molestation, what is?

Perhaps a victim not clouded in fraud issues from before. Perhaps a victim with a better story?

[TAdams8591]

Very much agreed.

[NautiNurse]

He's is going to keep doing this to children

and Mr. Umbrella Man keeps his job too...what a world...

"They can't all be morons."

Sure they can... and these jurors were morons.

[plain talk]

Sorry about the typo. It's hard to type correctly when you're mad and banging it out with your fists!

[HairOfTheDog]

Wow... MJ was sedate.... I think his beeber's been stuned too.

[lmavk]

Now that is FUNNY!!

[Txsleuth]

Just make that check out to Free REpublic, thank you very much!!!

But, it isn't sweet victory--I hate that this pervert has been given a life time pass to screw little boys...

[Gardener]

Those are not the reasons I think he is guilty, I think he is guilty because there is more than one accuser over a period of many years which to me at least shows a pattern of behavior. He got off legally, that doesn't mean I think the jury verdict is right.

[Enterprise]

I haven't gone to the report, however when I have listened to his show I always got the impression that he thought this was a case of prosecutorial abuse. Now I'll go to the site and see if he's pissed.

[conservativebabe]

He's drugged up.

[dfwgator]

You know that Michael targets his victims, his handlers check out the families precisely for past events like this, so he knows their word will not stand up in court. He is very calculating, as most pedophiles are.

[tobyhill]

The MSM now has the newest victim, Michael Jackson. The terrorist at Gitmo have been dreading this day.

[MeekOneGOP]

Well, I'm back over to eBay I guess (see my profile page). :)

[hattend]

Well, hopefully he's going to travel to Thailand for his trysts now. He can't afford to bring little kids to overnights at Neverland anymore. Otherwise, he'll find his ass right back in court all over again.

"Yet again we find that blacks in this country can murder and molest (whites) with impunity. Never again do I want to hear that being black makes the justis system biased against you.

Geez!!! That's really offensive.

[Road Warrior ‘04]

Un-freekin-believable!!! He's as guilty as sin! Welcome to the insanity of California!
