Guilty......

entwisi · 10-03-2005, 00:39

Personally, I think he will be found Not Guilty. I believe he is a poor individual who through money and fame has never even seen the 'Real world'. I think that he is a child in a mans body, someone with an emotional age far below that of his accuser. It just goes to show that money is not the answer to all problems. When children play together there is no sexual connotation, that is purely adult. He is a child. He may be guilty of performing the same acts that children often do in 'Doctor and Nurses' games, but I believe he doesn't know them to be inappropriate for a person of his age.

So, Not Guilty for me.

In postscript, I actually feel sorry for the guy. He doesn't have any understanding of the world around him. He would be safer locked up or closely monitored for his own benefit.

I can't give you any Karma at the moment - need to spread it around, so I'll instead say that I agree with you as well!

If he is guilty of performing the same acts children do when they play "doctors and nurses" he cannot be deemed to be not guilty. If he has done something inappropriate he shouldn't have done it no matter how he sees it.

He sees nothing wrong with sharing his bed with a child. If I were to do the same thing I don't doubt for one moment that you would be appalled and quite rightly.

I think you are right Ian, he doesn't have a normal understanding of the world as the rest of us do because he has never lived in a normal world, but that doesn't make it right for him to abuse a child or children if this is what he has done.

jackson didnt do nowt in my opinion and i am very much against perverts and nonces

he should have never paid that other kid off, he was a liar and so were his parents and it was proven with tapes of his father trying to black mail jackson by saying he would deliberatly set out to ruin his career and use any method he could to do it
, a whole load of other stuff i cant recall now but it definatly put tha kid and his parents as liars and theives

i suppose jackson didnt want the bad publicity of a trial and more harm to his career but paying that jordash boy just invited more fake claims and hes ended up in court anyway but jacksons defence isnt having to work too hard at destroying the oppositioin because its obvious to anyone those kids are lying

the dont recal anything

they mumble when giving testomy when questions get tough

that girl is 18 and at 18 if anyone had sexualy abused my brother i would have no trouble standing up in court and saying in a loud clear voice that there was the pervert who molested my brother

I really don't know which way to vote on this one, so I am going to abstain for now. If he is guilty then he should be punished they same way as everybody else. People often comment on his childlike nature, but ultimately he is an adult and should know right from wrong. MJ clearly has enough psychological issues to keep a mental health professional busy full time. Maybe some of his money and energy should be directed not at children but at getting himself some form of psychiatric help.

A man who admits to wanting to look like Diana Ross, a man who portrayed himself as a Christ like figure at the BrIts the other year, a man already tarnished with child abuse claims, a man who fathered children [supposedly] with a nurse he has no contact with.

Not sure of his guilt or innocence, but not who l'd get to babysit!

As of now, it's a 50/50 split poll.

Hung jury, we'll have to have a retrial!

WillowTheWhisp · 10-03-2005, 09:12

Interesting how we can have such opposing points of view isn't it? I imagine that whatever the verdict there will still be some people who feel that it's the wrong one.

janet · 10-03-2005, 09:14

I am not 100% sure yet, so i wont vote on the poll.

garinda · 10-03-2005, 09:20

l was on a jury, l didn't sleep all week and it was only a woman who'd knocked over a camera woman, l thought she was innocent the others didn't. l had to stand up and say we'd found her guilty by a majority verdict. l'm glad us lot aren't Jacko's jury!

I have also done jury service at burnley court, would not like to do it again.
