i agree with you dave.. he made the mistake of paying chandler off by $20million, and like a fool, he left the door right open for others to follow suit. i personaly believe he's not guilty. lynnxx

Jacckson was not found 'Innocent' He was not found 'guilty' a completely differnt thing. Please will those who have their caps lock on please tuern them off, it's very annoying. David

How many times have we seen celebritys targeted in this country, to make money either out of 'publicity' or in court cases. If you have got no money you havent got nothing to lose by taking a rich person to court they will pay whaever the outcome. David Beckham is a prime example he may have had affair with Rebecca Looes but she is a rich lady and minor celebrity now from a nothing,and so will the people who have pressed charges against Micheal Jackson even though they have lost they will be rich through media storys etc!

Davo my dictionary says innocent means 'not guilty' please explain your version of it!! why is it entirely different thing I am puzzled. Dave

Sorry Dave, I don't aggree with you. Any grown man who sleeps with boys is a Perv, whether anything else happened or not. When I went on a child abuse course, we were told that it is abuse to make a child eat something he doesn't like. If that is so then sleeping with young boys must be. Dave S x

Hi Dave When we were at school we were told that you are not found innocent, only that you were not PROVED to be found guilty. Dave S

i'm sorry davo, but the only real evidence they had from neverland, was a PORN MAG. does that make every man/woman perv's?

Davo so it is wrong for a loving Grandad or Dad to give his young grandson a cuddle on a Sunday morning please dont make it out all sordid.I agree Jackson should have not had young boys in his bed he was a fool and very naive.But anybody that gives his son or grandson a cuddle is not a perv and you have made a very sweeping statement. Dave

Davo that still doesnt explain your statement please expand?

Davo.....you did make a sweeping statement............ But I do understand what you mean...... Explain again in words we can understand!!! Stel.

I have followed the reconstruction daily on TV and listened to all of the evidence that was televised over and over again... the accusing family were liars... out and out liars... the children were coached into saying what they did. This was proved by Jacksons lawyer many times... the accusers mother was a benefit cheat and tried on numerous occasions to weedle money out of celebrities, as was testified by them. Jackson was so childlike that he was taken in by this family, they set him up for a big fall, and the Authorities couldn't get him the first time through lack of evidence, so this time they said they had the evidence... every shred of it was lies and inuendoes. I Know he needs some sort of help for his unusual behaviour at times, but I do think the outcome was the right decision... just my view!! Anne :)))

Anne Not just your view, many others view it the same :-))) Wonder what the future will bring, not a very happy one I suspect. Pat x

Maybe not Pat, I know he has been a little naive and stupid, but I think the way he has been treated all his life is disgraceful. Well done for not smoking girl... why don't you air your views about how you feel on the Smokers thread... you will be most welcome. Anne :)))

The families of these boys knew that their children were sleeping in Michael Jacksons room, and never questioned any ill-doing.... not until Michael stopped funding them... then the accusations started. If anyone has been following ALL the trials and accusations... they would realise that the accusers just used him. Anne :)))

If M Jackson was Black he would have got 40yrs.!!!!!!!??

Cliff LMHO you are warped you know that don't you Diana Pink says so, and I am too. Michael has gone through the courts they say he is INNOCENT hopefully he is and he will prove himself to be so. Pat x

Honey Anne I have posted on that thread,but it will be only rarely I talk about the weed not the usual conversation, I don't find it very interesting talk for me as I want to forget the wasted years. Pat x

Let us all hope that in the future Jackson will have the sense not to do this again, im sure there are enough bedrooms at Neverland that his guests can use. The one thing to come out of all this is it has highlighted the fact that a man in his 40s is sleeping with young boys,being inoccently or not, it is not exceptable, and hopefully it will deter him from doing it again. Who knows . I have to say as much i am not a fan of Jackson, i would not wish him to be harmed, as i do not believe that serves any puppose at all. Shirley.

Hi, This seems to be the only MJ thread I haven't added to. Being found Not Guilty does not mean he is innocent. OJ was found Not Guilty as well. I didn't believe that either. I hope the US version of Social Service makes sure he never has access to young boys again. Gwynne

He will definately think that he is invincible and above the law now! Wont be long before it happens again! I have read all the other comments and am sorry to say that I still think he is guilty! The problem is in cases of child abuse there is not always tangible proof! So it usually ends up the word of the accuser against the perpetrator!! Just a case of who do you believe!! Once again I feel that the jury were swayed more because of who Jackson is!! He has been in the media for so many years that people feel that they 'know' him... as they did in the OJ Simpson farce!! Just my opinion!! Bev x
