What is your view on the Michael Jackson Trial?

Innocent, guilty or not sure?

Im not sure to be honest, I think the family who are accusing jackson may just be leeching him for his money but with evidence of porn mags and pics being foudn in jacksons house it seems a bit suspicious but then again who doesent watch porn?

apparently child star macauly culkin will be taking the stand, the kid from home alone who starred in jacksons black or white video.

what are your views on the case, the family accusing and MJ himself?

i think he is innocent, he had such a warped childhood, he never had a chance to grow up, all he is doing is trying to live his childhood. And he does that by spending time with children.

I think he's innocent but probably Insane due to a troubled childhood.

Jackson Trial update:

Accuser's Family Never Planned Law Suit

The lawyer who first interviewed Gavin Arvizo, Michael Jackson's accuser, testified in the pop star's child molestation trial that he never was asked to file a lawsuit against the singer.

The prosecution yesterday called Larry Feldman as part of its explanation to the jury of how the alleged molestation came to the attention of authorities.

But the defence used his appearance to pursue its contention that Arvizo and his family were out to get money from Jackson.

Feldman acknowledged under cross-examination that the boy could file a civil lawsuit against Jackson until he turns 20 years old. The accuser is now 15.

Jackson's lawyer, Thomas Mesereau, grilled Feldman about whether a conviction of Jackson on child molestation charges would make it easier for them to get a financial judgment against the pop star.

"If Mr Jackson was convicted of felony child molestation in this case, (the boy or his brother) could use that case to win a civil case alleging similar or same facts against Mr Jackson, is that correct?'' asked Mesereau.

"That's correct,'' said Feldman. District Attorney Tom Sneddon asked Feldman whether he was contemplating a lawsuit at the time that he referred the boy and his family to prosecutors.

"There was no lawsuit and there were no plans to file a lawsuit,'' said Feldman. "It was up to you to investigate.''

Feldman said that although he met with Arvizo's mother many times after he ceased to represent her officially, "I have never been asked to file any lawsuit against Michael Jackson.''

During an afternoon break, a handful of Jackson fans yelled "liar,'' "tell the truth,'' and "you're making money off the backs of these people'' when Feldman walked outside the courthouse.

Feldman repeatedly defended himself from Mesereau's accusations that he left it to prosecutors to bring the criminal case because he knew that if they won, he would be assured of victory in a civil suit.

Feldman said he didn't want Arvizo, a cancer survivor, to go through two trials.

"It's almost inhumane to have a cancer patient go through a criminal case and then go through a civil case,'' he said.

The trial continues.

[Tim Surway]
