    So now we judge people based on their actions instead of the evidence?

    All this "witness testimony" and his past actions are just being using to throw allegations of paedophilia at him. Without a single bit of evidence or proof just wild speculations that cannot be proven to be true.

    The Jackson fanatics willfully ignore this, even though it's been explained ad nauseum. Generally Jackson fanatics know the guy is guilty too, they just have a hard time explaining away the mounting circumstantial evidence, so default to narrowing the parameter's down to only discussing a court's "not guilty" verdict. Of course, until something similar would happen to their own son......

    It’s not wild speculation. It’s a long history of allegations backed up a wide variety of witness testimony, and very strange behaviour by MJ himself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,067 ✭✭✭✭fryup


    To be clear I am talking about the totality of allegations from the late 70s until his ignominious death in 2009

    and what are the totality of allegations from the late 70s??

    ...4

    ...2 of which have been dispelled, and 2 currently spouted by two proven liars

    But is it speculation since the allegations are speculating that abuse happened.

    Speculation by definition is: The forming of a theory or conjecture without firm evidence.

    This is exactly what has been happening in this thread alleging and speculating that abuse has happened.

    Chandler's was not dispelled by any means. A substantial pay out was made once it became apparent that he could accurately describe marks on Jackson's penis. That screams guilt in my eyes.

    So if your own son said the same happened to him? Just speculation? Would you tell your son to go and apologise to Bob the nonce and spend another night with him after the court says Bob's not guilty due to a lack of evidence?

    Do you personally think it's appropriate for a grown man to sleep with young boys in an unsupervised setting?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,016 ✭✭✭tylercheribini


    Whatever about two incredibly acted lies, the wives,mothers and siblings would also have to be in on the conspiracy,with not one ever slipping up and giving equally convincing performances too.I had my doubts about the accusers motives down through the years but by the end of part two of Leaving Neverland I was convinced these two victims and their families were telling the truth.

    a substanial payout was made cause MJ at the time just wanted to get on with his life....he subsequently regretted not fighting it

    no i don't

    But my honest gut feeling about MJ is that he was a harmless, immature, naive fantasist ...i don't think he was capable of harming anyone - man, woman or child.

    thats my opinion on MJ

    *His management should have been more forceful and told him not to do it

    I'd believe my son because i don't think he's a liar. Therefore, I would know it is not speculation.

    Whereas there is no evidence to support the claims that MJ was a paedophile in this case.

    How many have come out with allegations? 3? 4? Is that not enough? Why does there have to be many more victims before he can be considered an abuser?

    Is your argument really that there needs to be a minimum amount of victims?

    5 have come forward. 4 have huge credibility issues as has been gone over several times on this thread. 1 was paid off by the insurance company.

    Credibility of witnesses is key. Would you trust the word of a compulsive liar for example? I certainly wouldn't. Not if its a his word v his word situation.

    The proper place for all this is a courtroom trial where evidence and witnesses can be interrogated and cross examined.

    But you don't know whether your son's a liar, other than your own speculation to choose not to see him as a liar. Kinda similar to how you berate others for choosing to believe those speaking out about Jackson, no? And further more, what evidence would there be to suggest Bob the nonse is a paedophile? He only like's sleeping with kids because his childhood was robbed and the court found him not guilty? So he's not guilty then surely? Seems like you'd change your tune if this "speculation" was to come closer to home. Hypocrite one might say

    Guess what if you molest one child you’re a child molester.

    It dumbfounds me how people expect someone to have proof of being abused .

    Jackson is dead, he can neither be held accountable or have his day in court.

    It doesn't matter either way, the allegations contained in the lawsuit are against people who are still alive who are alleged to have operated a sophisticated pedophile ring, the most sophisticated the world has ever seen apparently.

    That can be tested in court, if only someone would make a criminal complaint.

    But as of yet after nearly 6 years, nothing.

    Wonder why that is?

    I would know whether my son is a liar or not because I’ve raised him to tell the truth and be honest. So there would be no speculation involved in this instance since my son is telling the truth about the abuse.

    I haven’t berated anyone for choosing to believe those speaking out against Jackson. I have simply asked for evidence to substantiate the claims that he is a paedophile which hasn’t been provided. Fairly ironic considering you’re the one berating me for not believing their allegations :rolleyes:

    Sleeping in the same bed as kids doesn't make a person a paedophile, I’ve known plenty of parents that have slept in the same bed as their kids on occasion does that make them paedos?

    He is innocent though since he hasn’t been convicted of a crime not matter how loud people in this thread shout or how many toys they throw out of their prams. The man will always be innocent simple as that and nothing can or will change that.

    Wades own mother definitely thinks he is a liar, she said that he could win an Oscar for lying.

    Then again what would you expect from the self titled "master of deception".

    So your son would not be lying because you say so? That's the height of your logic here. Now seeing as you can't be objective with the speculation your son would come out with, the irony is lost on you. You only want to deal in cold hard facts and court rulings? Then your son's word means fcuk all I'm afraid to say. Either court rulings state someone is not guilty beyond doubt, or it doesn't. Being objective you can't pick and choose when it suits. Therefore, if the victims here are liars, then you must also view your son as a liar if Bob the nonce is judged "not guilty". Otherwise your a hypocrite

    Anyone can make an allegation about anything. I could make an allegation about Mother Theresa for example.

    You need credibility to be believed and not have some ulterior motive.

    To me Robson comes across as an obsessive MJ fan who couldn't cope with the fact MJ and later the estate turned their backs on him. And if MJ was such a compulsive paedophile why would he turn his back on them but not abuse other kids he befriended subsequently.

    Some people are intent on attributing malevolent motives to everything MJ did. He or his companies should be treated as innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

    No I'm assuming that the abuse has actually happened in this scenario and therefore he is telling the truth. Therefore, it is not speculation it is the truth which makes the allegations of abuse subsequently facts because it actually happened.

    Where as in the case against MJ it is all speculation and no truth because there is no evidence to support the allegations.

    I agree his management were extremely negligent, as were the parents of these children. This does not negate the fact that a grown man, as removed from reality as this particular one appeared to be, would have to be stupid to the point of of extreme ignorance not to be aware how sleeping with young children may be viewed. He did it anyway. Why?


    I watched a documentary recently on Netflix titled 'Abducted in Plain Sight', which told the story of how a paedophile 'seduced' his victim's family to gain their trust to the point they served their child up to him on a plate and allowed him to spend the night in their child's bed and to take their child away on prolonged trips together. They, too, thought he was harmeless; a nice guy. Predators can be really good at that stuff. Textbook grooming.


    We all know MJ had an awful upbringing. He was denied affection and valued only as a commodity. His father was frequently abusive, both physically and mentally. This had a life-long effect on the guy and gave him a craving for an affection he never had as a child. I believe he got that affection from other young boys, boys he may have seen as a version of himself as a child. He was obsessed with children, especially boys.
    I believe these displays of affection began to manifest themselves as harmless at first, then as the friendships grew closer and he gained the wider family's trust, became sexual in nature. I honestly think many paedophiles believe the sexual 'affection' they perpetrate is enjoyed and reciprocated by the victim. Many victims believe the actions of the paedophile are a display of love and affection too because that's what they're told by the perpertrator; that no one else understands our special love, they wouldn't understand etc.


    Sorry to have harped on so long, but this is what I believe. I believe you have to understand the dynamic of a damaged person towards their victim, not just see a celebrity for their outward appearance, but what drives them inwardly, stemming from an extremely damaged childhood, which manifested itself in adulthood as an extremely damaged human being.


    I found this article on sexual abuse victims very interesting: https://theconversation.com/michael-jackson-as-an-expert-in-child-sexual-abuse-heres-what-i-thought-when-i-watched-leaving-neverland-113160

    No but if someone alleges that the were abused:

    That automatically means that there alleged abuser is a paedophile?

    This is what many people are claiming in this thread without a single piece of evidence to substantiate the allegations.
    "Without a single piece of evidence" well thats not true.
    Just watch the last 20 mins of the Bashir documentary it is pretty compelling evidence.
    This is not just out of the blue testimony if that was the case I would agree with you.
    But you know as well as I do no one is reaching opinions just based on this one documentary. It is cumulative effect of well documented evidence in the public domain along with these latest allegations.
    You can still reach your own opinion thats fine. Others may differ.
    For me personally the latest doc is largely irrelevant all the previous evidence is damaging enough.

    His own sister suspected he was a paedophile which IMO wasn't a great sign of his innocence.
