I read somewhere that the type of crime that MJ was charged with was a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine santa barbara and other parts of the usa. The law was changed to trap MJ and the punishment was changed too. That is what I inderstood.Child molestation is NOT a misdemeanor in America! It is a crime and was a crime long before Michael was first accused. Datsmay, you need to read the penal code of most states in America before making such a statement!
And let me say this....a confession from Jordan will not change the minds of people who WANT to believe that Michael is a child molester. That is what they want to believe. It will, however, change the minds of people who want the TRUTH. And that is the only good that can come out of a confession.
On another note, what I would like to know is what ever happened to that court issue that Jordy had with his father up there in New York....you know....when Chandler hit Jordy upside the head. Anyone got an update on that?
That type of crime that MJ was charged with, (section 255a), unappropriate touching, which could be anywhere on the body, including the shoulders or the arm, Used to be misdemeanor,but Sneddon upped it with MJ in mind, cause that was the only way he felt he could get MJ, it was designed to trap MJ. All Sneddon needed was the boy to say that he felt uncomfortable. The whole case was hinged on the boy's testimony being believable. You cannot build a society on a law like that, cause they will end up having everybody in prison. It also undermines and make children who are subjected to REAL sex abuse more vulnerable. When everybody can be easily accused of sex crimes, it takes away the impact of the crime .
It's like someone going to prison is no big deal anymore, cause so many people go these days, they almost brag about it. It loses its shock impact.
People who falsely accuse innocent do a disservice to real victims. peopoe who refise to check the trith also do a dioservice to real victims and to themselves as well as society. We leave society exposed when we refuse to accept the truth.
