    I believe that the greatest evidence that Michael is innocent of paedophilia is the fact that no-one has come out since he died. After his death I expected a deluge of revelations and there have been none. It was better for Mike that he went to court during his lifetime, and tried to clear his name.
    A priest, who was a witness at the Chandler trial has now admitted he was abused by Jackson, he didn't tell the truth at the trial (as a child) as he didn't want people to think he was gay.

    There was no trial with Chandler. Do you mean the Arvizo trial in 2005. If he was a child in 2005 he can't be that much older now, seven years later. Can you name him and give a link to where you read this testimony? There is an awful lot of so-called evidence about MJ on the internet which gets passed around, and when you get back to the original source it's actually wrong. If you can give a link to your evidence I would be grateful. Thanks.

    At least Michael was tried in court when he was alive. He did a lot for charity (supposedly like Saville) but Jackson made some superb music and was amazingly cool. Saville isn't and is a nasty piece of work, he's almost viewed in the opposite way to MJ. When Saville was alive I feel the fact he was a weirdo was brushed over and (and certainly he wasnt viewed as a paedo) his charity work/TV persona was focused on, now his true character comes out.
    When MJ was alive the press hounded him with the "Wacko Jacko" tag etc but now come out with what a great performer he was.

    I seem to remember a lot of reviews saying Michael still had "it" but also looked rather 'out of it' and 'thin'.

    I recall a website 'This Is Not It' (?) said to have been set up by fans who said they had been at the rehearseals who expressed deep concerns about MJ's state of health and they were brushed aside.

    Did those fans choose to be annoymous for fear of the reaction of Michael Jackson fans and the PR machine?

    Would anyone that had gone public about Jimmy Savile had been dismissed by the public and have come under a barrage of insults and Savile using lawyers and the courts?

    The 'Wacko Jacko' tag was generated by Michael Jackson and his team.

    There is a PBS film made in the early 90's where a former editor of National Enquirer revealed the story behind the Oxygen chamber pictures. They came from Michael's team didn't mind what story the magazine put with the pictures as long as the word 'bizarre' was used.

    Jimmy Savile created a 'bizarre' image of himself blonde hair, colourful clothing anything to get in the press. Even in 2000 when he injured his leg he was on the phone to a mate to get his picture in the press.

    If millions saw nothing wrong with Michael Jackson sleeping with children as young as seven, did they have the same attitude towards Jimmy Savile being surrounded by hordes of young girls?

    Did the people who found Savile 'creepy'be the same people who found Jackson 'creepy' ?

    In MJ's mind he clearly saw himself as a child, who never grew up. I never got that vibe with Saville.

    yes great post mate...



    the whole wacko thing was a charade to cover up his sick pedo instincts.
    a truely disgusting individual who simply had that much money he could buy off his accusers and buy off his privicy to molest children....a truely evil man every bit as bad as saville...i also believe jackson music is utter trite..completely overated a bit like his 'stolen' un-original dance moves...rock n roll legend he is NOT...sick weirdo one trick dancer he IS.

    It gets even more bizarre, Jimmy Savile's long time PA talking about him....
    “He was always photographed with what he called dolly birds because he was terrified of growing old or being seen as old. Image was vital to him.

    He was like Peter Pan, forever surrounding himself with youngsters. It was his elixir.

    How many people have come out and said they or their children were abused by MJ after he died though?

    None AFAIK. Which suggests Jacko was just having friends over for a sleepover (very weird but not illegal) whereas JS was into something more sinister.

    Not every paedophile has the same MO. Jimmy Savile was a molester who could not and did not resist the temptation to abuse as many people as crossed his path. Michael Jackson was an altogether different type of abuser who nurtured relationships and may even have felt something akin to love for the boys whose innocence he robbed. He certainly made them dependent upon him

    For those of you who have not yet done so, please read www.mjfacts.info. This site is extensively researched and it is difficult to dispute any of the arguments put forward, However, the writer puts some excellent counter arguments forward which totally dismiss the defences used by Michael Jackson fans.

    My feeling, having read as much available evidence as is possible, including the trial transcripts and more, is that Michael Jackson was undoubtedly a predator. However, we can only ever have opinions. The truth lies with the boys.

    he went on trial and was found innocent. anyway you should research the full story and you too will realize that he was innocent if you haven't then you have no right to comment


    He went on trail and was found 'not guilty'. There is no such thing as an' innocent' verdict.

    Of course Michael Jackson's case was helped by the 5 million dollar lawyer he employed to discredit the accusers, and by his own reluctance to take the stand.

    Sadly cases can be won and lost on the sharpness of the acting attorneys. Michael Jackson had the money to pay the every best of the bunch, and he didn't let him down. I find it interesting that after the case was over, 2 of the jurors said that they had wanted a guilty verdict but had their voices drowned out by a vociferous head of jury - the same head of jury who was out partying with the Jackson team later that week.

    Things that make you go hmmm.....

    Oh I wondered how long it would be before MJ was brought into this. Here's the difference, I say it again, in 1994 two seperate grand juries examined the evidence and rejected it, according to one there were so many contradictions and story changes by the accuser, in 2005 after months in court a jury found him not guilty, for the same reason. If anyone was abused it was MJ.

    Saville is dead, he cannot refute these allegations which the media are only too pleased to assume he is guilty of. I think he probably is but we don't know until these stories are investigated, people kept quiet for years and only came forward when a TV documentary was being made, that has to make you wonder.

    In all of this nobody mentions how Elvis moved a fourteen year old Precilla into his home, everyone accepted there was no inappropriate behaviour, and maybe there wasn't but I bet underage sex was as rife amoung stars since ever they existed. If these allegations are true there should be action taken against people who allowed it to continue, but let's not start bringing other unproven accusations against other people into it.


    As a point of note, Priscilla was 18 when she moved to Graceland.

    there is a guy called terry george from leeds who said they had a phone friendship then he asked him to do things.
    If you know what I mean touching etc he was 13 jackson was 21 and then the friendship stopped but years later he called.
    And the guy in question said he believed michael was innocent over child abuse claims I do personally believe he was trying to make up for his lost childhood.
    I also believe michael was bi-sexual and possibly due to his background jehovah witness was not able to express this side of himself I also might add that evan chandler was a screenwriter who wanted to make a name for himself.
    And when michael refused to give him some money that's when he turned jordy was also estranged from his parents for many years michael may have been strange but I don't believe he was a proper pedophile.

    The case files stated the mother in question's evidence was actually hilarious. But due to the severity of the accusation it was taken seriously as we'd expect. The media didn't even report the trial properly. I think he was probably asexual and innocent too. He wasn't ever a real sexual person IMO. He was a very special person. If he did it, he'd go down, there surely would be enough evidence. Jordy Chandler even said his father lied, and the kids whose mother sued him said they had meetings about what to say. In court the kids stories were different and varied upon cross examination. It makes perfect sense. Pay someone off to shut up. But they got greedy and wanted more. He had a decent legal team, (I do law at uni) I've seen the amount of uk only files against the media here. It is collosal. I was shocked, (they're all for libel mostly) at the amount. There was a comment made by the father of Jordy saying :' I hate MJ, I'm gonna get that ******'. It's clear he did it out of pure hate.

    Jimmy on the other hand...well, he just abused his position. And used charity to cover it up and to get closer to kids.

    Jordan never said that his father lied. That in itself is a lie. As for the comments from Evan Chandler, are you aware that the tape from where those comments came was heavily censored and pieced together by Anthony Pellicano, one of Michael Jackson's henchmen?

    As for the kids stories wavering on the stand, yes they did, but I think that yours and mine might do too if we were faced with one of the US's best lawyers and his ability to put you under pressure. He was just a little boy recovering from cancer. Even if MJ didn't sexually abuse him (we will never know with certainty) there is no doubt that he physically abused him by plying his recovering body with alcohol. Those are not the actions of a loving and protective adult.

    It is possible to make a penis erect whilst a person sleeps you know. Men get them all the time during dreams naturally (hence why they wake up with them). That proves nothing. He was cleared of the drugging charge, which would've required bodily evidence. It was a court case based on a lie, a badly constructed one at that. Easy to believe due to the situation, but under cross examination all 20+ charges fell apart. You get done if there's evidence beyond reasonable doubt, which can be easy to prove in these kind of cases.


    Why would a grown man share a bed with a teenage boy and sleep in the nude? Come on, you are really reaching with that excuse. And there were 14 charges, not 20+

    How do you define a proper pedophile?

    you're right and given the media interest in JS, I would imagine they'd be equally rubbing their hands with glee at exposing MJ. The fact they have not reported anything, makes me wonder (possibly naively but I don't think so) if there really is nothing to report.

    Have to say I agree that I don't think MJ was a child molester.
    I have done a huge amount of research on it over the past few years and read all the court transcripts. So much to support his innocence. Tom Sneddon absolutely had it in for him. A few things that convinced me MJ was innocent was the recording of Evan Chandler (who later commited suicide) saying he was going to destroy Michael Jackson's career and win big. Also the Arvizo family had also tried to extort other celebrities in the past. There is plenty of other things that suggested to me he wasn't a pedophile but I won't list them all. The journalist Aphrodite Jones' book is fantastic. She started out thinking he was guilty like a lot of people did but after studying the trial came to the conclusion he was innocent. Obviously there's no absolute proof he didn't do anything untoward, I have to admit if he was still alive and wanted my son to go for a sleepover I would have to say no lol but I don't think in my opinion MJ and Jimmy saville are in any way similar.

    Michael was nothing on Jimmy. Michael was king and proven innocent. His 'victims' came forward and said they were lying. Sadly it was too late, this would be the beginning of the death of Michael Jackson.

    I believe he did but that doesn't make him a child abuser. Didn't the court find he did sleep with them in his bed but there was no intimacies! Just someone who was extremely naive and very badly advised by his entourage.

    I agree MJ was a weirdo but judging by the stories coming out (his kids weren't conceived by sex) He didn't like to be intimate with anyone except kids and then it wasn't sexual. Of course this is all my opinion

    I think MJ was desperate to relive his lost childhood hence the fairground and zoo in his garden and having kids over to play (innocently!)

    Preach! I have said this since day one.

    Not one of Wacko's victims has ever recanted. Stop lying.
