[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why about Macaulay? He has constantly defended him as these accusations came to light.[/quote]

I thought this too, but maybe MJ knew the bigger names like Macaulay and Corey would be a bigger risk. If he kept them as close friends, he could keep abusing his side pieces while looking like an innocent manchild.[/quote]

NP. This is a very good point. People assume that a molester is going to try to molest EVERY child in his orbit but that's not true. And having some "innocent friendships" that also looked like show-biz mentoring would be a logical cover and distraction from the relationships that were sexual. Plus the press would have been quicker to pick up and run with any whiff of molestation alleged by either of the young actors. Not so much with kids who, though they'd been in a commercial or imitated Jackson on stage, looked like mere, cute hangers-on.

I can't listen to Jackson's music any more. I wasn't a fan in the sense of having any records but his songs were the soundtrack to my HS and college years, always on every radio, at every party, etc. Ubiquitous. Still ALL over nostalgia radio, in stores, etc. today. I can separate artist from art in many cases but not his--no one can, I think, especially as he wrote or co-wrote so much of his material and sold his image so heavily. I only wish the comeuppance had happened while he was alive. [/quote]
