Jacko Innocent After All?
DECEMBER 9--A confidential investigation by Los Angeles police and child welfare officials concluded earlier this year that allegations Michael Jackson sexually abused a cancer-stricken boy were "unfounded," according to an internal government memo obtained by The Smoking Gun.
The probe's findings were based, in large part, on interviews with the alleged victim, his two siblings, and the boy's mother. According to the memo, when the child was questioned in February by a social worker assigned to the Sensitive Case Unit of L.A.'s Department of Children & Family Services (DCFS), he "denied any form of sexual abuse" by Jackson and said that he never "slept in the same bed as the entertainer." While not specifically named in the DCFS memo, the 45-year-old Jackson is referred to repeatedly as "the entertainer."
The memo notes that the boy, now 14, and his 12-year-old brother--who also denied sexual abuse--expressed "a fondness for the entertainer and stated they enjoyed visiting his home, where they would often ride in the park, play video games, and watch movies." The pair's sister, now 17, told a social worker that she accompanied the boys on "sleepovers at the entertainers home," but had "never seen anything sexually inappropriate between her brothers and the entertainer."
Go ahead and throw stuff at me, but I can't help hoping that he really is innocent. Though even if he is publicly exonerated, a great many people will believe he got away with it.

I also get the sense that he doesn't have too many people around him who are telling him that what he does is weird... That he tends to isolate himself so that his children's masks, the sleepovers with kids, the neverland ranch and other oddities aren't questioned before they make it into the news. And by the time they do, he's already convinced they are rational and reasonable actions. Which, who knows, sometimes they might be.
Throwing stuff at you
You can BEAT IT, but be careful about it.
If the police suspected that I did drugs, it would probably be a bad idea for me to hang out in a crack house. Know what I mean?
Sometimes, people get punished just for being stupid and that may be some kind of justice after all.

I'm sorry he had a bad childhood, but it doesn't help that he has so much money and so little impulse control. A bad childhood mixed with fame and fortune is a lethal combination. One thing is certain, MJ should get some psychological help and help children from a distance for a while.

I hope that he finds love, as well.

Why are they after him over nothing?
