My Thoughts on the Innocence of Michael Jackson

It must seem like a beautiful morning today for old Wacko Jacko. I bet his breakfast tastes better than it has in months. I bet he got up and watched the sunrise. I bet he thanked God about a hundred times last night before he went to bed--for the verdict in his favor, for the circumstantial evidence, for the haughty and case-killing testimony of the accuser's mother, for the beauty of a poorly prosecuted case.

Our justice system is beautiful thing. If you can convince a jury not to trust the people who are after you, you're home-free. Nevermind that you are obviously a sick and twisted individual. Nevermind that you tried every lame excuse you could think of to avoid appearing in court. Nevermind that you admitted on television that you like to sleep with children. Nevermind any of that, just make the jury HATE the prosecution and you will be acquitted.

I believe that Michael Jackson is innocent in only one way--he is a stark-raving lunatic. In fact, that's the defense that should have been used anyway. It's the logical one. I can't imagine why he didn't plead insanity in the first place. Of course, this way keeps him out of the loony-bin a couple more years. I firmly believe that Michael Jackson belongs in a nut-house and listed below are my reasons.

• His childhood was filled with a strange kind of indulgent and abusive drama. For years, I believed that Jacko's father had him castrated at a young age to protect the golden pipes. To this day, I have my questions about the true paternity of his children. Aside from that, at the very least, the combination of world-wide fame and an abusive father would do monstrously bad things to your psyche.
• The number of plastic surgeries this man has had indicates not just an obsession with his looks but also an addiction. I believe this to be one of many addictions he habors. After all, this is not the first molestation charge that has been brought against him. If he is not presently addicted to some form of presciption drug, I feel sure he has been at one time. He is addicted to attention at the very least and that is what drives him to do some of the ridiculous things he has done in the past several years--i.e. holding his baby over the edge of a balcony.
• Neverland Ranch and the fascination with all things related to childhood proove that he is prone to delusion. This is further proven by the fact that he believes he could still have a successful career in showbusiness. Face it, there will never be another hit single for him at least here in America. He doesn't have a market here.
• This may not prove insanity, but the fact that he made the statement about sleeping with children, at least indicates stupidity. This fact is further emphasized by his attempts to avoid appearing in court. If you have nothing to hide, ACT LIKE IT.

I feel sorry for the jurors in this case this morning. To much of the world, they are the ones that let a child molestor go free. It really isn't their fault so much though. The only thing they are really guilty of is not demanding that Jacko get the psychological help that he needs. If this case had been presented well, you would see a different headline this morning. It's not quite the perversion of justice that the O. J. Simpson case was. But as one of my friends stated this morning, at least with the O. J. Simpson case, you feel reasonably sure he will not kill again. With Jacko, there will always be someone crazy enough to believe that their children are safe with him. And if not, he has children of his own.
