Jacko / Glitter

[chirpychirpy]

Superstars are turning out for Jacko's memorial which is being broadcast live globally. His dodgy past appears to have been swept under the carpet. Or does the fact that he was never found guilty mean he wasn't guilty? And does the fact that Gary Glitter was found guilty mean no-one will ever look beyond his chequered history? Chuck Berry is still a legend despite his criminal record. What should we conclude from all this?

Didnt elvis presley date a 14 year old , have sex with her on the 2nd date , and then move her into his gracelands home where he married her when she was 22?


I guess chirpy has a point to a certain degree.And dont forget bill wyman of the rolling stones and 13 year old mandy smith and yet gary glitter was publicly ostracised and wyman got nothing near to that ,that i can remember.

sp1814 When you have lots of money and the top legal people working for you it is amazing what never gets shown in court

However investigators reportedly found a "collection" of pornographic magazines at Jackson's home last year, and fingerprint testing later showed both the singer and the accuser's prints on those materials, sources told CNN.

Superior Court Judge Rodney Melville is expected to decide next month what evidence can be admitted at trial,

Totally agree with you ( apart from the bit about Madonna )

I think that MJ was guilty of nothing more than being a kid , in adulthood .

Some on here state that they have seen evidence of his guilt - well , please share this information with us .

Well done pink-kitten - finally - yes J Chandler has admitted it was a lie. There are 2 or 3 on here who only have the mentality to keep shouting 'paedo' - well it takes one to know one I suppose!!

Craig Charles is a rapist.

I mean he wasn't found gulty but no smoke without fire eh?

Is that what we're saying?

And of course he had that incident a couple of years ago with the crack and the porn mags in the car to Manchester - so he's clearly no angel.

So yes, Craig Charles has committed rape.

seems it was ok for elvis then ?


carry on folks thanks for that

[ummmm]

Has anyone got a link where the boy says it was a lie?

[SUSPECT]

The MJ fan club says he said it

I completely agree with Naomi's posts, he was misunderstood, not a proper grown-up at times, which obviously led him to do things, such as 'sharing his bed' which a normal-thinking adult wouldn't consider. This doesn't mean he abused anyone though, he appears to have had the mind of a child at times, so in fact, if anything he was more harmless than many adults. No one can be sure of what he hasn't or has done, but we do know that he had a really hard life/childhood so it's hardly surprising he didn't turn out to be a 'normal' adult.

Controversial or not, I can't help but like him/pity him/be completely confused by him.

I also agree with whoever said that about the parents of the allegedly abused boy, if they took a payout then they're half as bad as paedophiles themselves if they WERE so convinced of MJ's supposed danger to other children. Sick.
