So, they done freed Michael Jackson

So, this whole Michael Jackson thing has finally ended. All I really want is for MJ to leave the kids alone as far as the sleepovers. It just doesn't look right.

Secondly, I can't say that I wasn't a little happy about Mike being free. I think this case had too many holes in it to convict him beyond a reasonable doubt - the mother lied under oath before, the boy lied under oath before, and the prosecution just could not get anything that related to this case to work for them. Additionally, anytime a famous Black person is on trial there is always some interesting drama surrounding it. I think that folks are never as outraged by white people being acquitted, but Black folks not going to jail gets people up in arms.
This whole case was really freaky. I hope Michael just disappears for a couple of years and stays out of trouble. And then, hopefully, he can make good music again.
