7/4 Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 It's interesting how while we're waiting for the results, CNN has live footage of SUVs racing down the highway to the courthouse. Looks kinda familiar... When's my take out arriving? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I hope that her phalanx of attendents keep a sharp eye on Liz Taylor in London to make sure she doesn't fly into a frightful tizzy and start popping fistfuls of downers if Michael gets sent to room with an ex-Hell's Angel in prison for 3-5.

Christiern Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I think he is guilty but that he will get away with it. We should have had a pre-verdict poll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Just spun the dial, and all the networks are carrying this live (saw a couple minutes of the helicopters following Jackson's entourage on the highway), as are all the 24-hour news stations (of course). Even MTV. Excuse me, but other than Jackson's notoriety as a celebrity, what is even remotely newsworthy about this case -- that it deserves even one 1,000th of the coverage its gotten?? Frankly, I don't give a rat's ass about knowing what the verdict is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christiern Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 (edited) I knew he'd get away with it. I wonder how much they paid this jury. Edited June 13, 2005 by Christiern Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christiern Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I think the fact that they did not even find him guilty of giving alcohol to kids is very telling.. This jury was not playing it straight. So now we can all glorify child molestation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 Wow, I didn't think it possible to find a jury even more clueless than the OJ jury.... but they found 'em. Jacko is a fucking monster. Literally and figuratively. What really scares me is that there are people out there who will willingly let their children spend time with Jacko, without a second thought, because they will see this trial as evidence of his innocence. Unfuckingbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a joke. ← It gets him out of debt! ← Shit, I was talking just about the jury members. I hadn't really thought about it, but hell yes this will be good for Jackson's bank account. I wonder when we are going to start seeing California prosecutors request change of venue to a different state when attempting to convict a celebrity? I'm guessing it's not possible, but it sure seems like it's become necessary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christiern Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 They are saying that juror #5 has already negotiated a book deal. Business as usual--hell, who needs justice when we have a regime that doesn't know the meaning of the word. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
