Re: [Discussion] Wade Robson files claim of sexual abuse against MJ-Estate
I do not find it extremely wise either that he openly attacks the Estate lawyers at this point. He should wait with that criticisim until a settlement happens IF it happens. On the other hand I have my reservations about the Estate lawyers as well and yes, I share some of Mez's opinion and concerns that they are chicken when it comes to defending MJ against these allegations. How many times was it some frustrating cop out answer that either Branca or Weitzman gave when asked about the allegations and not a real, strong defense? Mez would never do that. He always defends MJ with conviction. And that attitude is something I do not see in the Estate lawyers and as a result I can see where Mez is coming from with his worries. But I agree that it's probably not wise to publicly share those worries now.
Court cases are won inside of the court room, not in the media.
Sometimes I hope executors would splash out all the dirt they have on JS and WR and defend MJ more stronger ways, but then I come back to my senses and think that it is definitely not the best way the handle the case.
They should keep what they have under the wraps and unveil it when and where it really matters - court room. Once the case is either dismissed or won, then they can go on media and say what they have on those gold diggers.

Wow!
I only now read that petition!!!!!
"We, Michael's fans demand that Mr. Branca employs Thomas Mesereau and Ms. Yu because they are professional Criminal Defense attorneys."
Strong start! "We fans demand" :bugeyed
"As the people who have a vested personal and financial interest in the Estate of Michael Jackson"
:bugeyed
"We strongly urge the Executors as a sign of good faith and a willingness to clear Michael Jackson of these charges and a desire to see a healthy Estate is handed to his children upon their majority, make any and all money and resources necessary available to Mr. Mesereau for the proper preparation to defend Michael Jackson and his Estate. We also ask that upon appointment Mr. Mesereau is given any assistance necessary by you the Estate Executors and Attorney, and all discovery evidence. "
Oh boy!!!!
If the estate hires other than TMezz, does it mean that these fans believe executors are not willing to clear Michael's name? Do I sense a hint of blackmailing there too as well as some orders to the executors?
I understand that fans means well and have only Michael's best interest in their hearts, but do we have a right to dictate how they run the estate and to who their should hire?
What is the point to start these petitions now? First executors try to get these cases dismissed, and if (for some reason) either of the cases goes on trial, would it be over a year when it really goes on trial (re-CM and AEG cases). Executors have plenty of time to find suitable lawyer to handle the case, or they may have already someone picked whether it is TMezz or someone else.
I definitely think that Ivy's suggestion that TMezz should have called to the estate was the best way the handle this. Telling fans not to listen what they say so is wrong and he doesn't do any favours to himself by saying so. TMezz feeding fire with fire is no good, and he should know better.
