JDN,

Celebrity prosecutions are pretty tough. Everyone loves a celebrity and attacks the victims.

I wonder if its even possible to convict a celebrity in California. Its as if when you get a Star in Hollywood you get a 'get out of jail free' card as a side benefit.

Personally I hope he is bankrupted by this and the civil suits sure to come. As with OJ - whole different standard of proof.

John

The prosecutors picked the wrong wronged family. Jurors found the mother even more disgusting than wacko Jacko.
