OK, DO we know this about Michael Jackson? You don't think that b/cuz he's a celebrity, you are jumping to your OWN conclusions about his alleged guilt? Obviously, the guy has got some problems with appropriate behavior involving children, and I do think that he is in some serious need of therapy to work through his Peter Pan syndrome. But I don't know that he actually molested those kids. He may have shown them pornography, which is entirely inappropriate, but I don't know about the rest, so I reserve my judgment about the severity of his guilt. I definitely think there is something twisted going on over there, but it is very possible that, b/cuz he IS a celebrity, that he was an easy target for these kinds of allegations to be made about him.

My general rule of thumb: Unless you were there to witness it, don't make declarations of someone else's guilt. Benefit of the doubt is something that I feel should be observed more often.
