Now he can get back to making crappy, dated albums that no one will buy and blaming it on the record company.

wait until the civil suit hits, he will owe that family so much money he will have to sell Neverland and room with OJ in Miami in order to avoid paying the judgement.
Now he can spend his free time finding the real molester |

Wow. I figured he'd at least get charges which would prevent him from being alone with a minor without supervision of some sort. |

Of course it was acquitted-it plead not guilty

Doesn't he still own the Beatles catalogue. He can't be doing that badly. |

Actually, he was found not-guilty.
Kind of goes against the guilty as hell thing.
Though not a fan of Michael Jackson I see this case more as an example of bias and racism than anything else.
Just shows that the vast majority of white americans still cannot stand to have a black (or once black) man become rich and successful. |

Yep, bias I guess. Affirmative action maybe?
But I did think that MJ was now broke and unsuccessful? |

According to one of the lawyers on TV the Beatles songs are owned jointly by Michael and someone else. The deal is that by Dec. 5 one of them has to buy the other one out. MJ doesn't have the bucks.
There's also a reason why he may have to sell Neverland. I didn't catch it.
There is also some other money owed to someone.
According to the lawyer, MJ's people are talking to The Donald's people about a long-term high price run in Las Vegas. Another possibility is a tour of Europe and Asia because he still has a following in those places (which kind of tells you something about why they are not pop culture centers yet.) |

I'll go you further. Some of these trials make the accused into celebrities.
What a world ... |

wtf are you talking about? I could care less what race he is.
And you're going to tell me OJ isn't guilty as hell either? |

So, if you don't care what race he is, why bring up OJ?
Why not bring up Robert Blake?
Or any other person (celebrity or not) who was acquited of the crimes they were accused?
But all that aside, he was found not-guilty in a court of law.
Thus, like O.J. (a less-than-appropriate comparison) it really does not matter if he did or did not do it.
He was found not guilty in a court of law.
Thus, like O.J. it does not matter if he is innoccent or not (as innoccent and not guilty are two seperate and unrelated state of affairs).
If race is not important than where is the uproar for the three young civil rights activists who were murdered in Mississippi over forty years ago?
If race is not important than where is the uproar over Edgar Ray Killen and his ill-gotten freedom? |

Well let's see, they did make a movie out of the 3 activists death. That not enough for you? And out of the 18 arrested, 7 were sent to jail, including a county sheriff. AND they had an admitted segregationist judge. Given those circumstances and era, i'd give a lot more props to that jury than any of those morons on the MJ case. |

Michael Jackson was on trial? When did this happen? I wish the media would devote more time to these kind of things.
Guilty until proven wealthy, I say. |
