Guess maybe he couldn't live with himself.

Does anyone here know him personally enough to really know him. On the outside, he's a freak, a far cry from the sweet little kid in The Jacksons. But I really feel that he's innocent of evil deeds even though he is truly f****d in his head. Musically and as an entertainer, he was brilliant.

Very True, OM. A vicitim of circumstances perhaps?

i notice you are referring to him in the past tense. of course we don't know him personally, but when you live in the public eye you will get opinions. i believe he's a child-molesting pervert based on the prosecution case.

You just have to ask yourself if he REALLY wanted his nose to look like that? Is it cosmetic surgery gone wrong or has he had it changed so many times that the latest change looks all messed up?

I kind of feel sorry for the guy. Thrown in the spotlight at the tender age of 5 and living under a microscope for his whole life.

And it seems to me that if he was a pedophile, there would be so many more victims then ummm, 2. And I find it a bit odd that those two had the same lawyer. But hey, I am not entirely convinced that he is innocent either. Either way, some serious therapy is needed.

But do you have actual evidence of this. He may be wierd and like hanging around with kids, but I don't think he ever grew up mentally. I don't think he would harm a fly. On the other hand, but for his solicitors, he was easy prey.

Yes, I am using the past tense because the last case finished him. I sensed his spirit leave him, so to speak. He's had enough.

Michael Jackson's worried family fear he is hooked on prescription drugs - and are planning an intervention.

The eccentric star's relatives are said to be jetting to his Bahrain hideaway - where he has been living since being cleared of all charges at his child sex trial in June - because they fear he is popping pills.

A source told America's New York Daily News paper: "The family is in a state of emergency. They consider it a life-or-death situation"

Michael's brother Randy has allegedly urged the family to rally round after Jackson's nanny, Grace Rwaramba - who cares for Prince Michael I, Prince Michael II and Paris - called him for help. The source claimed: "Michael is bingeing again. Grace basically said she can't handle him alone. The family is in a tailspin"

it sure is strange that he paid out millions in hush money. and the prosecutors had a lot of evidence. just another celebrity blinding a jury IMO.

In most cases, I would agree with you, but this guy had a publicity phobia he could only control on stage. I don't think it was paid to cover up guilt. He fears being in public. A type of agoraphobia. In the end, he had to face it anyway.

Strangely enough, although they do have a lot of rubbish, I have

noticed that sometimes they do get the drop on something.

I'm too busy to look for the thread right now, but I posted a while

back about being around him in a work sitch, and this is mid-80's

and the guy had a little boy who traveled with him, he was described

to us as "Mr. Jackson's lillte friend... they play games and stuff" yeah,

RIGHT.

Leaving my Christmas persona for a moment, let me post this photo... and I know you're going to say "but he sees himself on stage, that doesn't count." The man is always on stage, he lives in a fantasy world. And latest news reports say there are "boys" coming out of the woodwork to file charges now that he's left the country. He's a pedophile.

OPENMINDED, I understand what your saying, and for the most part I believe your right. This is one troubled soul that really doesn't know how to conduct himself unless he is on stage. If this rumor is true may his tortured soul rest in peace.

Do I believe he is capable of hurting children... YES, YES, YES.. just by the fact that he doesn't see it as a problem is a clue to me that he just doesn't get it. His behavior is despicable and should have never been allowed.

Is he a brilliant artist of course, is, has, and always will be. We he ever be able to recover from this last case no, and nor should he... He is a man child your right, who is beyond deeply troubled.. !! I can't defend his action period, he is a pedophile in the worst way...!! :-5

I see where you're coming from Carla.

If it weren't for his circumstances, he would probably be locked up in a loony bin somewhere. A mental child with the urges of an adult. I don't know. I don't think he ever intended harm in the way common paedophiles do normally in that they force children. But I wasn't there, so I can't really say.
