I hate the entire concept of televised trials.

Innocent until proven guilty? Not if your name and picture has been published and broadcast with the words "Suspected Murderer/Kiddie Fiddler/Rapist/Fraudster". No-one hears the "Suspected" or "in connection with".

It pisses me off. Although MJ is clearly a fruitbat and does cram his digits up young boys back doors, I still don't think anyone should know anything at all about it until the end of the courtcase. Especially when you hear of trials being disbanded due to media content prejudicing juries.

Pile of wank.

And anyway, he clearly fucks kids, cos I read about it in the paper.

or maybe

Do they just re-enact the trial, or do they show the abuse as well?
Posted by Alfie_DUPE1, around May 2005:
 
The abuse too, but they use midgets instead of children.

For legal reasons.

Plus the midgets need the money.

And they had constipation, so it was a winner all round, really.

And they look a bit like children, so Jacko was happy too.

Plus the work dries up when it's not Panto season.


For the midgets too.
Posted by Brock, around May 2005:
 
And I have it on good authority that midgets all partake of the Buggery plant anyway. That's why they don't breed very well, they're too busy fucking each other in the "up the bum, no babies" hole.

Allegedly.

"It has to be said that the use of the qualifying adverb allegedly has as much recognition in English jurisprudence as the use of the qualifying adverb 'not' in the film Wayne's World." - Ian Hislop.

Who is in the Guinness Book of Records for the 'Highest Ever Libel Award' for losing £600,000 in damages to Sonia Sutcliffe. This was a particular achievement since, unlike other tabloid editors, he had managed to lose out not to a popular celebrity but to the wife of a mass murderer.

Cool. So, iamcal is off to a big bang with a Karolina Sprem worshipping midget child porn. Might as well put a big advert up on the furry sex forums saying "Mortal enemies in sight, commander, Go fight the good fight!"

As long as we don't mention that Malachi Cush character, we'll be just dandy.

Malachi Crush? Isn't that the new name for Fanta?

I thought he was that pianner player who was marginally more annoying than the Crazy Frog.

Apparently, when Michael Jackson dies they're going to melt him down and mold him into toys, so children can play with him for a change. :P
