Now that Micheal Jackson is dead, people have been villanize him more than ever. Here is my take on things:
Child molester or not, he was truly sick and could not be held accountable. He should have had some serious therapy long ago.
Truth is, I don't want to believe that he molested any children. However, i could believe it if he truly did and I was presented with evidence. But I think his situation was different than most, and he would have been better suited for psychiatric treatment than prison. Of course, if he had gotten the help he needed before all that happened, it might not have happened at all.
I think one reason I don't want to believe it is because I find it sick for parents of the children to go after or even take his money. Greed knows no bounds, I guess and everyone has a price. But were I a parent in that situation, no amount of money would satisfy my vengeance (yes, I think he was sick and needed help more than prison, but if it happened to my child, I would probably think differently). I think it's an insult to the children for their parents to see dollar signs when something so traumatic happens to their kids.
He was a great entertainer, but the lengths he had to go through to achieve what he did broke him completely long before any accusations surfaced. He was pushed too far, and as much as I loved his music, it makes me sad to know what he had to go through for it.
Bottom line: He was a human being too. Leave him the hell alone and let him rest in peace. He's dead now, get over it.
