Oh the mystery of "The King of Pop!" The verdict is in & will be revealed at 4PM. Don't you know that Michael is nerveous, because his life is hanging in the balance. I know that I'm nerveous and it has nothing to do with me, except I've admired his talents, just not his life-style. I started this thread, thinking that some would like to share their feelings here about it. Oh well, the world shall soon know. As Texan just shared, this could be Micheal final walk in freedom, as he walks into the courthouse holding him umbrella. One thing about it, there won't be an umbrella needed in prison...ouch.

I heard on the news that he had 60 suites made so he could wear a new one each day in Court..wow. But, he's not alone when it comes famous people doing this. I know of a lady minister on TV that buys expensive suits to wear only once, then discards them. Yes, it's her money given in support of the ministry, but this is such a wast. It's not right for all those members on social security or families on low income, to do without, while does this. OK, I got off the subject....sorry! Now, back to Michael, yes they say he's in debt, and with no new single to be released. This really hurts financially. As far as him moving out of the US, maybe it would be wise to move where he has a huge following of fans. I watched "Larry King Live," when he interviewed Lisa Presley, which was during the trial, but she never said that he was guilty or not....just left one thinking he could be. I've wondered why she wasn't called to testify. Does anyone know why?

I think you can relax Baron...lol. Actually, last night on "Larry King Live, he was interviewing Michael's brother, and he said that Michael will be moving to, "Switzerland", I think he said, because he needed to rest and so on. Anyway, earlier on my reply above, before I asked a Moderator to delete it, I had mentioned that Michael had 60 new suits created for him to wear each day in Court, which was a waste..lol. Oh well, that's his business, but one reason why he's broke. Well, enough out of me for now...lol.

My goodness, talk about looking retarded..lol. In my assumption that all messages were deleted, I rementioned MJ's suits. Oh well, I wonder what will become of Neverland? Hopefully, an organization will purchase & keep it open for the children. OK,I'm done.

*throwing Marcus an open umbrella* I must say I think John Hale is most likely right but like skyler said only what you can "prove" not what you know. *motioning to Marcus to duck* Look at O.J. seemed guilty but how many times were they stabbed??But who else could have or would have done it right??I do know that he owed tons to some mafia type gangsters. What would they have to gain??Besides like the man said earlier what can you prove?? In America the legal system is abused I mean that the premium has been put on winning or not losing and screw being honest or telling the truth. I don't mean to bash or blame people but lawyers who look at it as they have to defend their client even when they are sure client is guilty they should be obligated to the law and pursuit of truth not winning!!Unless they are defending me of course!@!

I think that Ichiban is hitting the reason here, why I decided to no longer practice law. I could play the law game well. But I personally had issues with the difference between law, and justice. Quite often, though law is served, justice is not.

If in the MJ trial justice was served. I really don't know. I don't know anything about the evidence. I have heard a lot of people say, that the testimony of the victims was shotty at best. They kept changing their story. When this happens someone should not be convicted. However, this could still mean justice is in part not served. As the problem is, victims often give shotty testimony. Due to trauma, mixing up the account, memory, the time between them being victimized and the trial, and the pressure of the court room and a defense lawyer.

A defense lawyer, if he plays the game well. Can confuse a witness so much, that their testimony ends up being shotty. The love of that game, gave me some personal issues in terms of looking at myself in the mirror.

So, I became corporate senior management instead. I quite disillusioned now. As it is also a dirty world. And again I find myself in a place, where being a good manager, doesn't mean being a good person. I again, have to make some decisions, and give up a good pay check. Lets be honest, I like to keep my house. :(
