#3 MJ is in the building. Whole family with him, wondering what they are going to do if their source of income goes to the slammer.

#7 What was that jury foreman line from "The Producers"?

Oh yeah -

"We find the defendant(s) incredibly guilty."

#10 Wow--they announced "not guilty" on ALL counts. The state must have had a pathetically weak case.

I can not believe the zany supporters he has--on Fox they were showing one lady release a dove as every "not guilty" was read out. Do these people have jobs?! Do they have lives?!

#15 So now I suppose we will get back to 24/7 coverage of that attractive white woman who ~~ran off with some locals~~ disappeared in Aruba again right? (never mind those people being tortured, raped, and killed in the corner... their only mud people...).

#16 My take on the whole matter is that the Santa Barbara County DA was getting reports of goings on in Neverland and finally decided to nail MJ. The only trouble was that parents that sent their kids to Neverland for overnight have got to be flakes. Flakes make weak witnesses, so the prosecution had to make a case with people that could be torn to shreds by a good defense attorney. Witness credibility (or the lack thereof) probably sunk this case for the prosection.

#17 I think my jaw dropped about NO inches in shock at this one. The DAs in Kalifornia couldn't convict Judas of handing Christ over to the Pharasies

#21 This, all of this farce, is depressing.

I need an endorphins booster.

Dr Steve - got a lithium regime or something you can recommend? A legal one, affordable by peons and working stiffs? Mebbe eating 5 bananas a day or something? You can post a response as Spemble something - to maintain your medical distance from such homebrew remedies... the AMA might jump ya, otherwise.

#22 You'd trust a Spem with a prescription pad?

#23 Heh. It's just cover, man, the guy's AMA card would prolly 'splode spontaneously if he offered something that didn't come from the PDR.

#26 So that's what did it, huh?

And here I was duped into thinking it was that they'd used a Stanley 12-205 jackplane to skinny it down instead of a fine Clinicon Diamond Laser scalpel. Silly me. ;-)

#29 Please, no more of those pix. It seems to be the teensy little schnozz that increases the creep-o factor.

#32 I really don't like the picking and choosing of jury members. It just winnows it do to the mentally challenged. Come on. Just spin the wheel and fill the members. A RANDOM not FILTERED AND SELECTED jury.

#33 I was once told by a very old and esteemed lawyer that he had spent decades carefully picking jurors but that, if he could do it all over again, he would probably just take the first 12 people who walked through the door. All human beings are wild cards.
