Well said DTC
Hey look a sequential post!
Michael Jackson never got it. On a different note, neither Uri Geller.
I’m being sexually harassed!
The first thing I thought when I heard about this was, “Thank God, now they’ll take his three kids away from him. I hope.” They’re young enough that maybe there’s a chance they could still grow up to be normal, if they were in a normal environment.
Then I thought, “God, what if some other member of the Jackson family tries to get custody?” (Since the mom clearly doesn’t want them.)
Does anybody out there have any idea what will happen to his kids? Is it a sure thing that they’ll be removed from his custody pending trial? Where would they go?
He’s also obsessed with kids, Diogenes. I was reading an article at Crime Library about pedophiles and the profile they gave fit Michael to a TEE.
He talks about children as sent from God, innocent, pure, wonderful-it’s so freaking CREEPY.
No offense to DtC, but I should point out that lots of adults sleep with kids already – namely, their children. Maybe Michael’s just so messed up in the head that he sincerely believes that him sleeping with little kids is as nonsexual and noncontroversial as that?
Now, if we’ve got recordings of Michael Jackson asking his little playmates if he can touch them “in that special way,” that’s a different matter…
The problem is he’s sleeping with their children as well, which last time I checked was illegal.
How the heck did he descend from being the world’s most beloved entertainer to a demented pedophile bearing a strong resemblance to Lon Chaney in the 1925 Phantom of the Opera?
A friend just e-mailed me a pic of Jacko sporting a snappy new pair of bracelets - it must have been taken within the last few hours.
Some have suggested that Jacko was so traumatized by his father that he’s trying to be the exact opposite.
wavy lines… wavy lines… wavy lines…
Michael Jackson perched high atop Elizabeth Taylor, wildly waving a gun and shouting to the police, “Made it Ma! Made it to the top of the world!” Then he fires a bullet into Elizabeth Taylor, who goes up in a tremendous fireball . . .

. . . I was going to use the final scene in Public Enemy when I remembered that one of the characters puts on a record of—I am not making this up—“I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles” . . .
I see him ending up in a mental hospital.
Seriously.
I said “fathers excluded” in my post.
If Michael Jackson was a garbage man would anybody let him sleep with their kids?
Depends if he gets jailed this time. If he gets a long sentence that will screw him completely. if hhe gets off with it he will continue as if nothing happened and it was just some mad person trying to get money from him.
Jail could be the best thing to happen to him—maybe he’d finally get some psychiatric help, and away from his yes-men.
I’m with Diogenes.
I don’t know that “similar charges in ordinary cases” are often false. If this was GD, I’d ask for a cite there. False accusations against celebrities happen, but given Michael’s history, I don’t think you can just chuck this out the window. He apparently settled the other case for $15-$20 million because the kid in question correctly described him naked, which was a real bad sign.
No, I think the reasoning is “this doesn’t even seem to be out of character for him, so he might be guilty.” Given his public comments about “why is it so wrong for me to sleep with children,” I don’t find that surprising.
Ding! Ding! Ding! Though I would amend that statement to read that any parent who would leave his or her kid alone with ANYONE THEY DIDN’T KNOW AND TRUST 100% is looking for trouble, let alone someone who has publicly admitted to sleeping with children other than his own (and STILL thinks there’s nothing wrong with it despite the sage advice to the contrary from his own friends), who builds a kid’s fantasy place called “Neverland,” who has had more plastic surgery than Pamela Anderson, who has paid millions to settle prior allegations against him, who dangles infants from balconies, and who walks around like the Elephant Man with a sack cloth over his head.
I honestly don’t know if Jackson is sexually inappropriate with children. I do know that he is abnormally preoccupied with them and that I would no sooner let my child stay with him than with with Anne Heche.
That’s all I need to know about these people. Your child’s cancer goes into remission so you ship him off to a freak’s house. Makes perfect sense to me.
Michael Jackson may be a child molester, and that would be horrific. But there is one category of people who fall lower on the morality scale and the plaintiffs are it. I hope the millions of dollars they will ultimately get from Jackson is worth their son’s dignity and privacy. I’m sure this media blitz is doing wonders for their son’s health.
What’d Anne Heche do?
If Michael Jackson wanted to have sex without consequences with young boys he should have become a priest.
He is a garbage man.
She told me she loved me like a brother. She was from Arkansas, hence the Joy!
She’s a certifiable nut.
