Michael Jackson has set up a website to defend himself with his press releases. I have taken the liberty of going through it and interpreting his statements. Anything inside the double stars (**) is my statement.…
"A sinister cabal of superior writers."

Michael Jackson is a great singer and entertainer - that's part of why this whole thing is so tragic.
27 - Sharon R. Boyd
I am writing this note in support of Michael and his upcoming court case. I don't believe in my heart that Michael likes children sexually or that he is gay. I believe that he has been marked by some people to be destroyed. I believe that people want someone else to take his place and get the fame. No matter what, no one could ever take Michael's place in the music world and in my life. I am a 55 year old woman and my grandchildren just love Michael. I only wish he could come to Detroit and Cininnati and see some of the under privledged children who wont take advantage of his good heart. We including me would love to see Michael Jackson in Detroit and interact with our children.

I'm saddened and really disappointed at the accusations against Michael, but then again, I must not be surprised. I've been and still are a big fan of Michael and the rest of the Jackson family. But when all I see is Michael with all of these White kids and having mixed babies as if he's forgotten who and where he came from, it truly bothers me. Stay black, we are the most compassionate people of all races. Whenever his butt is in trouble, no one speaks louder and gives more support, than we do. I don't say this as person that is racist, but just look at him. He practically changed his color to be something that he's not, white. I too have mixed kids and family members, but I would never try to bleach my skin or be embarrassed to have kids from my own. Especially if I didn't conceive them through natural sexual intercourse. I'm sorry, but I'm indeed perplexed by his total disconnect. Please come back to where you belong. You have fans all over the world rootin and tootin for you....Take a sabatical and come back with, "Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud". Now I don't hear or see this from you, Mike. You remember, James Brown and Sammy Davis Jr. (who to my dismay, also (according to his latest posthumous autobiography) had a problem with his skin color as well). Come back, man, come back.....we love you.
29 - Eric Olsen
Lee, though I don't necessarily "support" Michael in his current troubles - if he's innocent, great, if not fry him - I am very pleased to see someone address the matters you do. Jackson's cynical embrace of the black community in times of trouble, and only in times of trouble, is as opportunistic as it is obvious.

Dear Michael,
I grew up listening to you and I am totally appauled by what the Mafia has accused you of.
We all know why they are doing this......it is because of the Beatles Catalog! DO NOT GIVE UP OR GIVE BACK THE CATALOG! HMMMMM......TO PISS OF THE MAFIA.....SELL IT TO A MUSLIM KING ARAB OIL FAMILY!
WHOM EVER IT IS ACCUSING YOU OF MOLESTATION.....WE NEED TO HANG THAT PERSON.......THAT PERSON MUST COME OUT OF THE CLOSET AND SHOW HIS FACE SO WE THE PEOPLE CAN ATTACK HIM FOR ALL HIS LIES!
KEEP STRONG AND MAY GOD WATCH OVER YOU!
Sincerly,
Bouboulina

Why do you people not look at the facts? Where is your BRAIN? WE are supposed to be living in a free, just country, unlike other unjust terrorist, evil, countries. We are supposed to be not guilty until proven guilty. Why are you not REALLY concerned about that in the Case of Michael Jackson. Is it so much easier to accuse and Judge? It is really easier to love and not judge.. But you have judged so long and most people do-- right--and you kind of fit in then..YOU MAKE ME SICK!!! This man could be innocent. Let's look at some facts---He helped children for a long time---children he has never met and will never meet. He did that out of the kindness of his heart.He didn't have to. At the expense of millions of dollars to him. He truly appears to love people and that love draws people to him, because it is real love.
32 - HW Saxton Jr
OH Bouboulina!!!!!,those nice gentlemen
in the white jackets are here with your
medications and they would like to see
you just as soon as you're done talking
to that rainbow........................
UMMMM,let's see if I've got this thing
straight.Michael Jackson has pissed off
the Cosa Nostra by his refusing to give
up ownership of the Beatles catalogue.
So,to extract revenge upon him,the evil
forces that be have somehow concocted a
nefarious scheme to bring about charges
of Child Molestation upon him to teach
him a lesson?

My dear lovely Micheal,
I am writing this note in support of Michael and his upcoming court case. I don't believe in my heart that Michael likes children sexually or that he is gay. I believe that he has been marked by some people to be destroyed. I believe that people want someone else to take his place and get the fame. No matter what, no one could ever take Michael's place in the music world and in my life. I am a 32 year old Men student in London and I just like Michael all my life. My King Micheal I need you help in my life I lost my mother and father so that now am inside difficult life for financial problem for my study and my life please help me(My name is Abdul Razak Ibrahim and account number is 00483757 and sort code is 110048)thank you my king Micheal God care of you. Kindly regards.

Craig Lyndall you are a fool. And you deserve to go to hell along with all the other people who try to slander Michael Jackson, although they don't know him.
Craig as far as I know you had a little thing for doing little boys yourself.
See how it feels to be accused of something that's not true Craig.
How dare u insert those insulting comments between the lines of Michael Jackson's statment to his fans on his website.
There is a God u know and while u may get away with your shit now . When u die u have to answer to God for everything u did.
35 - Ann
This is for Saxton Jr. I am a Catholic. Most priests do not molest children...Get the facts straight...
36 - Eric Olsen
My God, I hope "most priests" don't molest children, but a shocking percentage have - one is too many, and the policy of institutional cover-up has protected the guilty and perpetuated the behavior for what, hundreds of years?
37 - HW Saxton Jr
Ann,Where did I say that "MOST" priests
are molesters??? Don't put words in my
mouth.And my facts are straight,darling.
Given the amount of priests that've been
investigated,charged and also convicted
of molestation as of late and the great
lengths that the CATHOLIC church has
gone to to conceal and to protect these
sick ass boyfuckers(in the Southwestern
city that I live in, a priest convicted
last year on multiple counts of child
abuse & molestation had been having teen
aged boys pose as Jesus Christ on the
cross while he fellated & whipped them,
lovely scenario,isn't it?)I don't think
I'm going too far out on a limb by my
implying in a wisecrack (and that's all
it was,just a wise crack,not a sweeping
indictment of the Catholic faith)that
there are child molesters in the priest
hood.Obviously,the problem is not just
limited to the Catholic church.Just as
fucked up and equally disturbing is the
lengths that the Catholic church has
gone to to cover up and protect many of
these vile,mentally diseased degenerate
bastards.It seems to me that the church should want to weed these sick fucks out
rather than try to cover up for them,if
they were concerned about protecting the
"good name" of the church.Had Joe Schmo
down the street committed the same acts
he would have been very rightfully fried
faster than you can say an "Our Father",
yet so many of these priests were merely
slapped on the wrist and shuffled around
to various parishes and dioceses to do it again and again and again and again.
So you're "Catholic",so what? A lot of
people(myself included)were raised to be
"Catholic" but yet,they are still able
to acknowledge the fact that there is a
HUGE problem in the Catholic church and
that there are many priests who deserve
to be punished for these utterly vile &
filthy acts.Unfortunately,there are way
too many priests who will never face any
punishment thanks in part to the efforts
(highly organized efforts)on behalf of
the"Catholic" faith to cover these up
whenever possible.That said Ann,I have
just two words for you and they are not
"Dominus Vobiscum".

DEAR MIKE ,
I KNOW IN MY HEART THAT YOU ARE INNOCENT. BECAUSE YOU HAVE TOO MUCH LOVE TO GIVE AND TOO MUCH HEART AND RESPECT FOR OTHERS. AND YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD AND ALL CHILDREN OF GOD ARE LOVED IN EVERY WAY.
YOU ARE SPECIAL AND LOVED BY MANY. WHAT IS WRONG ITH THE WORLD AND SOME OF THE PEOPLE IN IT IS THAT THEY DONT UNDERSTAND THE THING S YOU DO AND HAVE DONE FOR THEM AND HOW WELL RESPECTED YOU ARE. AND THE KEY POINT OF IT ALL IS YOU ARE NOT LIKE THEM AND YOU HAVE MONEY THAT YOU WORKED HARD FOR AND EARNED SINCE YOU WERE A CHILD.
THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD THAT DONT WANT TO WORK FOR THERE THINGS, THEY WOULD RATHER AQUSCE AND INNOCCENT "BLACK" MAN OF A CRIME THAT THEY AND THE WORLD KNOW HE (YOU) DID NOT DO. BECAUSE OF WHAT "MONEY".
BUT AS THE SAYING GOES MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL. IN THIS CASE THE EVIL WILL BE DESTROYED.
BUT YOU MIKE WILL BE ALL RIGHT BEACUSE YOU COME FROM A STRONG BACK ROUND AND FAMILY WHO STICK TOGETHER AND MOST OF ALL YOU HAVE GOD IN YOUR LIFE AND GOD IS THE KEY TO EVERYTHING. HE IS THE ONE TO EITHER MAKE OR BREAK YOU. AND HE HAS NOT BROKE YOU YET, AND HE WILL NOT BREAK YOU, SO DONT LET THE EVIL PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD BREAK YOU DOWN.
KEEP YOUR HEAD UP AND KEEP ON PRAYING. YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WILL FOREVER ALWAYS BE IN MY PRAYERS.
GOD BLESS AND HUGS/KISSES
SINCERELY, T.CARTER

I hear Ted Bundy and Adolf Hitler have huge supportive fan clubs also. Adolf was a pretty good painter. Does a creative talent in any way absolve a person of their crimes? Just because you like someones work doesn't mean you know anything about them. Get that through your heads people. See Occam's Razor. (the simplest answer is usually correct)
44 - Craig Lyndall
These people are all insane. I am glad they don't know me. I would hate to run into one of these people at the grocery store. I am sure they would corner me and yell at me in their crazy rampages which are broken by the distraction of their strangely intense emotion for a guy who probably hasn't done nearly enough to earn this amount of devotion. Plus, what happened to the old adage of "what have you done for me lately?" Why does this not apply to Michael Jackson?
45 - Ann
To Mr. Saxton--Not a nice Attitude for someone brought up Catholic.We are called to forgive 70x7--to be like God ,even if a certain priest is not good like he is supposed to be.You nor I or innocent Catholic Priests will be judged by God for the sins of priests who did wrong. I have met many priests who heard my confession and forgave me for sins that I feel I would have gone to hell for. Those who are forgiven much--love much. Not one priest ever acted immoral to me or in front of me.
46 - Ann
PS Mr.Saxton I'd rather you not refer to me as"darling" neither the 2 words you wouldn't say. Freedom of Speech--equal rights.
47 - Dwaine AKA Scooter AKA D.J.
Yo, to T.Carter and all you fucks who think Mikey Jack-the-kids is innocent: Just look at this black-white pussy. Did you see the ABC interview? Did you see him dangle his son over a balcony? Look at this nigga(I can say it. I'm black.), look at his nose! He has to be the weridest rich guy on earth! I hope the faggot rots in jail and then we can put his nose up for auction on eBay or somethin'.
48 - Craig Lyndall
Oh dear. Have you ever had someone on your side in an argument, and you wished they were on the opposite side because they weren't very helpful at all? That is how I feel now.
49 - HW Saxton Jr
Ann,In as far as the amount of priests
that have been,are & most likely will in
the future be embroiled in molestation
cases I feel that as a non-practicing
Catholic that I have as much right,if
not more than most to criticize the
problem.This is certainly nothing new
to the RC faith and should seriously be
examined to ascertain what can be done
to help solve this and the other serious
problems facing the church currently.
Perhaps,Catholic priests should be given
the option to marry.I feel this could
only be of great advantage for both the
parishes and parishioners.If RC priests
were allowed to marry,I feel that the
many insights, not to mention virtues
such as selfless love,patience and the
openmindedness that come with marriage
& the raising of children could be of
benefit to them.Certainly it could not
hurt.As for forgiveness for priests(or
anyone else)convicted of the crime of
Sexual Molestation,most absolutely not.
I personally feel you have to draw the
line somewhere in regards to these men
and I just can't forgive them under any
circumstances.God may forgive them,but I
am not god and I can't.

My comments are gone. 'Craig stepped in it' and '???' are hardly grounds for removal methinks. Did they just get swept away in a general cleaning of a thread that had gone down the toilet?
51 - Mac Diva
Oh, one is back.
52 - Craig Lyndall
Speaking of which, what exactly did you mean when you said I stepped in it, MD?
53 - Mac Diva
That you opened the door to all that followed, Craig. Michael Jackson isn't me or some other obsure blogger for Chrissakes. If you are going to write something like this about him, expect fallout. Things get even stranger on the other Jackson thread.
BTW, you all, I was browsing Atom Films last night and came across this doozy, "Michael's Lost Interview."
I am not endorsing it, but believe the producers zeroed in on why Jackson may be his own worst enemy.
54 - Craig Lyndall
Got it. We used to say someone must have stepped in shit if they got lucky, meaning that they had payed their karmic dues and their fortunes must be on an upswing. Anyway, the Michael Jackson topic is way more of a big emotional mess than I ever would have imagined.
55 - Dwaine AKA Scooter AKA D.J.
Yo, Craig Lyndall, my fault. I am a civilized person, y'know. It just feels good to let off all of your aggressions over the web.
56 - Jamie Neary
hi Mike,
it's Natalie, darsylle and Jamie again we still beleave that you are innocent, we have been going on your website for ages and it just seems better everytime we go on. We hope your ok and aint getting to stressed over all of this, cause you have no reason to because you are innocent.
Anyway i can't write no more today cause
im in lesson at school.
nuff love to all the MJ fans out there

Michael you are innocent!! michael jackson news

its interesting!

i think micheal jackson is a man to reckon with,,,,,,,he is one in a million. keep it on.....
61 - Eric Olsen
I would say he is closer to one in a billion
62 - Jose
I dont believe that micheal Jackson did that to theose kids. If he Really did do that things to those little kids dont you think that they would have found out and convited him already. i dont want to believe that he did and i wont belive it because i really like him and he is and will always be my favorite singer i am 16 male and i live in INDIANA.
63 - Aaman
You're lucky Indiana is so far from Neverland.
64 - Eric Olsen
although he puts in the occasional visit to the ancestral home for court appearances and the like
65 - Craig Lyndall
Aaman, don't you mean INDIANA.
Seriously though, if you haven't read Eric's profile of Michael Jackson and his oddity-filled life, you should go read that. I can't find the link right now, but I think Eric also did it for MSNBC.
66 - Eric Olsen
thanks Craig, there are all kinds of Jackson posts linked from the current master post here. It goes back aout a year
67 - Jordan Smith
I was just wondering, as a Canadian trying to understand the American judicial system, is ther not a charge of sexual interference of a child on the books somewhere? I does not neccesarily need to involve actual molestation but certainly covers blatant inappropriate behavior.
68 - Melanie
Hello Micheal,
I am very happy for what the outcome has been. I do not know if you will ever read this, but I own a Dance School. We have recently held our Recital and it was dedicated to you. All of the girls were so happy to perform to your music.Even though they had not grown up with your music they sure loved it.
If you read this please know that even in Canada we believe, and are there for you.
69 - Craig Lyndall
Even in Canada? Wow.
70 - Eric Olsen
and here I just read something about Canadians being even less interested in Jackson's music than Americans

HI MICHAEL IAM MOHAMMAD I SAW YOU IN YOUR DOUTHER BIRTHDAY CELBRITE IN DUBAI AND I TAKED PICTURE WITH YOU ..........DO YOU REMEMBER ME!!

i'm not english, i'm french. But i love Michael Jackson, like you. It doesn't matter if we speak french, english, deutsh or other languages, the major thing is we all support michael. I would like tell to those ones who hurt Michael with their bad words that they take a look at themselves before !!! michael have never hurt you,so just leave him alone !! thank you !
73 - javontae
i love michael jackson i'm like your best fan
74 - Rachel Martinez
I think that Janelle - #15 is just jealous of what Michael Jackson has. She is so judgemental. Janelle, Do you even know Michael? I have had experience with Michael and I know that he is not a child molester.
"Before I would hurt a child, I would slit my wrists" ~ Michael Jackson
Michael is a devout christian and will never think of hurting a child. You may be thinking, "How do you know?" I know because Michael is a very honest person. Why would Michael lie? And Janelle, How would "you" know that Michael is guilty? Do you have proof? Would you say it right to Michael's face? I doubt it.
Some people think that Michael Jackson is gay just because of his high voice. I have a high voice, am I gay? No!
Michael loves everyone, no matter what they say about him. You guys need to quit saying apalling lies about Michael? Have you ever thought that you might be believing in a lie? I would think before I say and act? You might be laughing at me and Michael, but someday Michael is going to have the last laugh.
I will always believe in you, Michael! I want you to know that whenever you feel down or hurt, always remember that you still have us (your fans and friends) that love you.
Michael, I love you because you first loved me!
Jesus loves you!
God Bless You,
Rachel Martinez
