One more, He was a pedophile!

Jacko is an extraordinary man. Good writing
Michael said that people should look at his childhood before they judge him and I think that people should look at his childhood.
I don’t look at Michael as child molester. I don’t know the truth but I don’t think that Michael could be harmful if he wasn’t so clouded by his past childhood pain. I think that those children and their family only wanted his money and they did.
One boy got $22 million dollars and living nicely. They had a recording of that little boy saying that he will destroy Michael and he will get everything. This is clearly a motive for money and who wouldn’t think money when they have an issue with Michael. He’s so wealthy and that’s why Lisa Presley said that those families were vampires.
Interesting! And well researched. I’m pretty sure thatare probably many more!

Micheal Jackson was a mesmerizing personality. I have grown listening to his songs and imitating his dance. If only I could give him a drive in my New SUV Mahindra Scorpio. It would have been the honour of my life. My new SUV would have felt so lucky http://www.mahindrascorpio.com
He was definitely one of a kind. No one will ever be as unique and influential as him. RIP MJ
