Why Michael Jackson is glorified as a star even if we know that he was a child molester?

Johnson212 · 61-69, M Best Comment
For similar reasons that OJ Simpson was let off, he was guilty also.

If you don't think Michael did anything wrong think again.

There is no dispute that, at age 34, Michael Jackson slept more than 30 nights in a row in the same bed with 13-year-old Jordie Chandler at the boy’s house with Chandler’s mother present. He also slept in the same bed with Jordie Chandler at Chandler’s father’s house. The parents were divorced.

Five boys Michael Jackson shared beds with have accused him of abuse: Jordie Chandler, Jason Francia, Gavin Arvizo, Wade Robson, and Jimmy Safechuck. Jackson had the same nickname for Chandler and Arvizo: “Rubba.” He called Robson “Little One” and Safechuck “Applehead.”

Jordie Chandler drew a picture of the markings on the underside of Jackson’s penis. His drawings were sealed in an envelope. A few months later, investigators photographed Jackson’s genitalia. The photographs matched Chandler’s drawings.

The hallway leading to Jackson’s bedroom was a serious security zone covered by video and wired for sound so that the steps of anyone approaching would make ding-dong sounds, you need that when you are doing things with kids you are not supposed to.

Jackson had an extensive collection of adult erotic material he kept in a suitcase next to his bed, including S&M bondage photos and a study of naked boys. Forensic experts with experience in the Secret Service found the fingerprints of boys alongside Jackson’s on the same pages. Jackson also had bondage sculptures of women with ball gags in their mouths on his desk, in full view of the boys who slept there.

According to the Neverland staff interviewed by the Santa Barbara authorities, no one ever saw or knew of a woman spending the night with Michael Jackson, including his two spouses, Debbie Rowe or Lisa Marie Presley. Rowe, the mother of two of Jackson’s children, made it clear to the Santa Barbara authorities that she never had sex with Jackson.

The parents of boys Jackson shared beds with were courted assiduously and given myriad expensive gifts. Wade Robson’s mother testified in the 2005 trial that she funneled wages through Jackson’s company and was given a permanent resident visa. Jimmy Safechuck’s parents got a house. Jordie Chandler’s mother got a diamond bracelet.

In a 2002 documentary, Living with Michael Jackson, Jackson told Martin Bashir there was nothing wrong with sharing his bed with boys.

I am not buying it that he did nothing wrong.

Michael Jackson
Michael Jackson (1958-2009) was a famous singer and entertainer. Between 1993 and 1994 and separately between 2004 and 2005, Jackson was investigated by California law enforcement agencies for possible child molestation. [b][c=#BF0000]He was acquitted of all such [/c][/b]charges.

@MarmeeMarch Ok. Thank you. So to reiterate, you believe both Michael Jackson and Hillary Clinton are innocent because they were never convicted in a court of law for their alleged crimes.

Interesting. At least there is some consistency there.
@SumKindaMunster Sure why not I'm not a little baby that screams foul play I abide by what a judge or a court of law decides
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@MarmeeMarch Cool, thank you for clarifying.

People would rather overlook such inconveniences that hinder the view of their idol.
Warda · 31-35, F
@Carver I think he should be shamed not glorified, and screw people's idol
Carver · 31-35, F
@Warda I agree, but unfortunately, it's not up to us.
WeighedDown · 36-40, M
@Warda @Carver it's kinda a reflection of reality. in most cases there are those who will justify, excuse and ignore all the red flags so they can hold on to the image of someone they loved. It is better for them to believe a pleasant lie than to accept a morbid truth. If this was some random guy that worked at their kids school or a Boy Scout leader I have no doubt that they would condemn him..
What kind of parent allows their children to do a sleepover at the man's house ? oh that's right I know, if a man has deep pockets and the parents are dirt poor
WeighedDown · 36-40, M
@MarmeeMarch they did accompany them in some cases but they stayed in a different part of the house. He had motion detectors in his hallway that would trigger alarms in his bedroom to notify him if anyone was coming that is suspect bro. I don't mind debating you are arguing with you but I would rather you didn't insult me, over MJ
@WeighedDown OK so he had motion detectors installed probably part of a security system after all he was Michael Jackson so don't you think it's strange that a parent would see motion detectors in a house and not grab their kids and run I mean come on what evidence do you need video recordings?
WeighedDown · 36-40, M
@MarmeeMarch if Jesus himself came down from heaven and said Michael Jackson was innocent I would have to ask for ID
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
He was one of the most exciting and dynamic pop performers of all time. He was also probably a serial child molester and pedophile. Those things don't take away that he has written and performed some of the most classic and revered pop songs of the 20th century.
RylanTheHusker · 26-30, M
Being a pedophile, negates anything else significant, one has done.@SumKindaMunster
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@RylanTheHusker That's your own personal opinion. It is not a factual statement.

Because he is both
indyjoe · 56-60, M
The truth is it is public opinion as to whether he actually did it or not and nothing was ever proved nor disproved (when something is put out there on the news and especially in the popular social medias , public opinion forms very quickly...especially when someone famous is involved). Do I believe he was guilty or innocent? I cannot say one way or another because I didn't know him or any of his "victims" and I haven't seen any of the evidence for or against. That said...What he did or did not do in his personal private life had no (and still doesn't have any) bearing on the music and entertainment he put out there. Add to that, the man is dead and that incident was years ago, it makes no sense to keep rehashing it.

Simply because people refuse to believe the truth as he was never convicted of a crime.
Warda · 31-35, F
@SW-User and he hated his race...
SW-User
@Warda he was a strange person in so many ways, and marrying Lisa Presley, ugh, he actually met her first when she was a child😱
Warda · 31-35, F
@SW-User🤦‍♀️
SW-User
Being a star and being a good person doesn't go hand in hand. Even tho I absolutely hate his music, I can still admit he was a great performer with a massive talent.

John Lennon is hailed as a great talent too, and even a spokesman for peace, while in real life it's no secret he was a wife beater (among other things) Still doesn't change the fact he made a great impact in the music scene. (And no, I don't like him either, but his talent is still undeniable)
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@SW-User Like what kind of music do you like. 😂
SW-User
@Zonuss Elvis Presley is my no1 ☺️
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@SW-User Oh goodness. 🙂
deadgerbil · 22-25, F
It's crazy. Some people choose to ignore unsavory aspects about him.
Warda · 31-35, F
@deadgerbil true he was a disgusting human
deadgerbil · 22-25, F
@Warda just like R Kelly

Yet so many people support him
Warda · 31-35, F
@deadgerbil yeah and R kelly seems to be confident when defending himself..

Good question.
He was talented, a good dancer and performer. Oh, and he was black - transitioning to white.
I guess when he had all that going for him, some people will look the other way when molested kids.
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Zonuss No, not like that at all.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Budwick Yeah sure. Its always that way when you dont wanna talk about someone who you admire right. 🙂
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Zonuss I never said I admired Jackson. I said 'He was talented, a good dancer and performer'.
Was he actually found guilty? I thought he was accused but acquitted of all charges.
@WeighedDown You do realize that thriller is still being played today......And screw you I don't know your personal history.
WeighedDown · 36-40, M
@MarmeeMarch I wouldn't want you to soften your blows because of it, In all honesty I shouldn't even be involved in this conversation, I truly believe I'm right and MJ was a child molester, but he is dead and is not worth the thought or text you and I are giving him, and from the bottom of my heart screw you right back
MasterLee · 56-60, M
Beautywithin · 36-40, F
In your opinion, to me he had a childs mind, I've followed the case for years he was found not guilty, a grown man having young boys around was always going to cause a stir and in no way Is it right but I dont believe he did what he was accused of, MJ was a troubled soul but no way was he a molester
SumKindaMunster · 51-55, M
@Beautywithin So did you actually watch it? Based on your response, it sounds like all you did was read the counter propaganda put forth by the Michael Jackson estate and felt that was all you needed to draw this conclusion.

I think in the end the picture was that he was fucking weird - but didn't actually molest anyone. And the scandals took a huge dent out of his popularity.
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
Same reason we don’t talk about Whitney Houston being a crack head, or Prince being a pill popper.

People believe what they want too.
texasdaddydom · 51-55, M
how is it known he was never convicted. i think he was messed up in the head and had like peter pan complex I dont think he was molesting children.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
Where is your proof ? 🙂
@Zonuss Read my reply the FBI reports that there is no proof
Zonuss · 41-45, M
I wonder if you are a Trump supporter. He sexually assaulted hundreds of women. ☺️
Budwick · 70-79, M
@Zonuss
Oops - sorry, that's Biden.
Zonuss · 41-45, M
@Budwick Yes. Biden. too . See I don't take sides cause I'm smarter than you. 🙂
