I've never believed Michael Jackson was a child abuser, and I never will. This is the way I see it.
If there was any validity to the claims, there wouldn't be smoke and mirrors. People can talk all they want about the latest and past accusers, but the solid facts are that there is no hard evidence that ties Michael to anything ever happening. If there were, I would have to stop listening to his music.
Let me compare Michael to R. Kelly. Kelly has a lot of hard evidence that has tied him to years of sexual abuse against various underaged women. There is no denying anymore that he's done at least some of what he has been accused of. However, when it comes to Michael Jackson, it's just a bunch of finger pointing and "well, this happened", with no actual evidence.
I do believe there is sex abuse that occurs within the entertainment industry. I just refuse to believe that Michael Jackson was ever a part of that. If there was, he would have gone to jail.
