I read a very interesting profile of pedophiles written by an expert psychiatrist. He stated that, as they get older, they become more insatiable and depraved. Nobody could cover that up. Eventually it comes out. Just like it did for Gary Glitter when he decided to get his computer repaired.

I hope you have read the court testimony. If not, check out www.thesmokinggun.com.

You are correct that it was the insurance company that chose to settle the Chandler case. The reason was that the civil trial would have preceded the criminal trial. The prosecution could not run the criminal trial due to lack of evidence, so they were prepared to keep it open until the statute of limitations expired and hoped to find evidence before then. MJ and his legal team wanted to go to court and did not want to settle. The insurance company did because of the perceived harm to his career from the prolonged litigation = limit earnings. The settlement document stated it was not an admission of guilt and did not prevent future criminal prosecution. The litigants chose to withdraw. I know this has been said several times, but wouldn't you want to see your child's attacker in prison and prevent harm to other children? Remember Ron Goldman? He wanted to see OJ fry.

Make sure you read all about how Jordy Chandler's dad gave him sodium amytal in the dentist chair to elicit a confession by asking leading questions, then tried to state it was used for anaesthesia. No, it is not. It is a psychiatric drug which induces a hypnotic state and has been associated with elicitation of false repressed memories. Nice thing to do to your 12 year old son, huh?

I wonder how that would have come across in court?

Don't forget the psychiatrist who gave Evan Chandler a letter stating he believed molestation had occurred after having heard only a hypothetical series of events from Chandler over the phone. He had not met the child, let alone conducted a clinical assessment. There's your expert witness, Your Honour.

Chandler then requested a meeting with MJ, gave him a hug when they met and then presented this letter to MJ to outline his case for compensation. Because I would hug a man who I thought had sodomised my child, wouldn't you?

This is all documented, witnessed by lawyers and was going to be presented as evidence for the defence. No wonder they ran with the money.

I'll break the fucking sarcasm detector.

Michael Jackson had no more problems than millions of other abused children. Case closed. Whether he was able to move on from that was the rest of that story. To say that he was nothing but a victim of his circumstances is basically to demean all those other victims.

And if there were no molested children, why did Jackson's handlers settle out of court with so many, for so much money. IF there was no molestation then why? Because of the appearance of molestation? Well why did it appear that way? Because JAckson arranged to spend nights sleeping next to young boys that he had admittedly gotten drunk on wine?

WELL THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. GOL DARNIT.
