Do you think MJ is a pedophile?

[hitch0403]

While I don't necessarily outright disagree (but I probably do disagree somewhat) with those who say he should just be left to rest in peace, I wonder if people would feel the same way if MJ was not a rich and famous pop star while alive, but instead was some well to do but non-famous person who was accused by many of molestation and ruining lives.


What is it that makes you feel he should be left alone? Just the fact that he has died? The fact that he was wealthy and someone now might try to take advantage of that for a payoff when he can't defend himself?


If he was not guilty of what he has been accused of - he most definitely should be left alone. But if he is guilty of what he has been accused of, does his death and his contribution to pop culture make it okay to ignore years later when the alleged victims are no longer children and are beginning to fully realize what was perpetrated against them?


It's not an easy issue, because there is always going to be somebody who is just trying to make a dishonest buck.  But if someone truly has been harmed by a horrible act, they absolutely deserve something whether it is money or something else - I'm not prepared to say. But to be forced to shut up and go away without any closure is doing a huge disservice to them.

He was tried in a court of law and found not guilty.

I am not gonna convict MJ cos i dont know.But i do know that court decisions ARENT final either.Let God judge him as he will with all of us.

Blind justice doesnt affect many of us unless we or our loved ones are involved.

I cant even say i know OJ was a murderer even tho it looks more like he was.I dont know.What i do know there was 2 people WERE brutally killed.Someone i would think should pay for that.

And it all comes down to this....

To earthling man his way doesnt belong to himself.He is walking to direct his own step.Correct me o God Jer 10:23

You make a valid point, but there are still quite a few guilty people living free and quite a few innocent people living in prison.

[paints]

Not any longer...he's dead.

In no way am I condoning the alleged behavior of Michael Jackson. However, I honestly believe his childhood was instrumental to the questionable behavior he displayed to children in his adult years. Again, I am not using it as a crutch or an excuse, just providing a possible explanation.

[rraper]

whether he was or not, who really knows for sure. nobody is supposed to speak ill of the dead. but i bet since he had money the same as bill cosby. my bet is somebody is trying to get that cash by maligning him.

[alaskah]

I'm not going to say he wasn't weird, but I don't believe the boys that are accusing him now. The only reason is because they said MJ did nothing to them when it went to trial before. So were they lying under oath then, or are they lying now?

[king4cash]

He is now dead and gone, move on with the living..

[mrisha]

Now you bring up a man who has been dead for a long time!!!!!  Was he a pedophile?  Who really knows.  Get with the 21st century.

NO Michael Jackson didn't molest those children. MJ went through a lot in his own home and was not able to have a childhood. People just wanted to milk him for all his money and stress him out. He never had a childhood and he should have been more careful in his dealings with kids but I don't believe he did that. I love MJ and still listen to his music. He's an ICON.

[vp44]

No I do not believe so I believe these are attempts to get money and publicity. Michael has crossed over and is not here able to defend himself let the man rest in peace.

I agree with you. Just let him rest. Greedy people will always tell lies to get money.

[amyDAST]

From the interviews he had done before and after the trail if he didn't do it he certainly was not all right in the head. The comments he had made about the kids he loved and shared his bed with and proud being able to get undress with them was beyond scary and down right creepy.
We only know what the media released to us but the interview with Michael Jackson was beyond horrific for any parent to hear.

[Mizzkizz7]

No, Michael Jackson was not a pedophile.

[stevensm4]

No, because a pedophile is sexually attracted to kids and Micheal said his attraction was not sexual.

[Badbaby89]

I didn't believe he is one. I think he was just a child at heart. That's why he lived at Neverland. He never wanted to grow up.

[teresa3200]

I loved and still do love MJ's music. I feel if he was a ped it is just as much the parents of the kids fault, they kept taking their kids there after he was accused.
