That's true on so many levels, you're gonna have to specify.
What makes it weird is not the MJ verdict, but that as a wealthy person he can buy a defense that could get a jury to arrive at it.
I think I'd still rather see one guilty man go free than one innocent man executed, but I'm not one of Michael Jackson's little buddies--or their parents.

That's true, but that's always been true. I don't harbor any hatred towards Michael, it just seemed obvious to me, that he is a very damaged person. It would be better for all involved with him to keep him away from children. The parents of the children in this case were every bit as guilty as Jackson.
On a side note, his cult fan club members were truly...interesting.
Good point. I didn't follow the trial (at all!), but I can just imagine the money-sniffing that was going on, for greedy parents to allow their sons to visit a grown man like that--and then again, when they sued.
Ugly business all around. I've always felt very sorry for MJ. A brilliant creative mind, broken.
