Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch Raided
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Published: November 18, 2003 (NYT)

LOS OLIVOS, Calif. (AP) -- Investigators conducting a criminal probe swarmed Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch on Tuesday. The purpose of the search was not disclosed.

........

As the raid was under way, Court TV reported that the warrant was tied to allegations brought by a 12-year-old boy. That could not immediately be confirmed by The Associated Press.

In a television documentary broadcast on ABC earlier this year, Jackson said he had slept in a bed with many children. ``When you say bed you're thinking sexual,'' the singer said. ``It's not sexual, we're going to sleep. I tuck them in. ... It's very charming, it's very sweet.''.

...........

Jackson caused an international uproar last year when he displayed his baby, Prince Michael II, to fans by dangling him briefly from a fourth-floor balcony in Germany, where he had gone to accept an award.
............

Jackson routinely keeps the children's heads covered with cloth while escorting them in public -- and he usually sports a surgical mask himself when out and about. He has said he wants to protect them from the public eye.
...........

Jackson has appeared weak and ghostly pale at many of his recent public appearances, and his own attorneys have said has been involved in nearly 1,000 lawsuits.
........

When he did finally testify, he giggled during questioning and made comical faces at people in the courtroom.

Nothing wrong with him. Nope, not a thing

Of course he did. He paid a fortune for that look.


More pedophilic innuendo from the Prince of peculiarities. What would the tabloids do without Michael Jackson...?

[subgenius]

Sure glad someone else started a thread.
Even if he's not a child molester, he's a bad enough father to warrant having those kids rescued.
The chickenscratch authorities have done it, and ruined families, on far less than his obvious mental illnesses.

Isn't he also a friend of Uri Geller?

Didn't he pay some shaman an obscene sum of money to slaughter 30 cows in order to place a curse on Steven Speilberg (and other Hollywood executives)?


So what though. Ronald Reagan liked him, and that's good enough for me.

Now that's taking freedom of the press a little too far, IMO

From http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/showbiz/3282773.stm

Jackson's friend, the psychic Uri Geller, described the singer as "extremely gullible and very naive".

I mean, he even fell for the old spoon bending routine.:D

[subgenius]

Court TV reporter Diane Dimond, who is on the scene, says a source told her that police not only had a search warrant, but an arrest warrant. Dimond told CNN's Larry King that had Jackson been at the ranch, the warrant would have been executed.

Odd fellow though he is, I can't help but wonder if money is at the root of these allegations. After all, he paid out a good chunk of cash on at least one other occasion after similar allegations were made.

[Brown]

CNN's web site also reports that an arrest warrant has been issued... but there is no story yet, just a headline.

I really don't think that "odd" is an adequite word to describe him.

Why not review this (http://anomalies-unlimited.com/Jackson.html) and then crack open the old Thesaurus and see if a better word can be found.:D

BREAKING NEWS!!

A news helicoptor has spotted Michael Jackson headed towards the Mexican border in a Ford Bronco...

:D

What a freak.

[SRW]

One reporter stated that the parents of the child are not looking for money and the Michael will probably be going down for this one.

[subgenius]

Hard to believe the idiot parents who put their children in this guy's reach.

If Uri Geller were driving the Bronco, it would make a perfect story.

Man.. the way Jackson looks these days.. its a wonder why hes not classified as an amusement ride.

[Mycroft]

Setting aside the child molesting issue...someone needs to do an intervention on that man.

I agree. Child Protective Services should open a case file on them. They need to be asked under oath, "what were you thinking?"

They better take MJ's kids away from him and the worse-than-scum's who sold their offspring to him. His third is from a yet unnamed "person."

STAR TRIED TO FLEE U.S.
By Stephen Martin

UNHINGED Michael Jackson went into mid-air meltdown and tried to flee America as he flew home to be arrested and handcuffed.

The singer, sedated by doctors but gripped by panic at child sex charges, demanded to be flown to a South America bolt-hole.

Trembling and swaying, he ordered aides to change his plane's flight path and spring him to a haven beyond the reach of US law.

EXPLICIT letters and poems said to have been written by Michael Jackson to his alleged victim will form the centrepiece of the sex-abuse case against him.
Police seized at least a dozen letters during the raid on Jackson's Neverland ranch last week.
"The district attorney is convinced these letters will be crucial to the case against Jackson," a source close to the investigation said yesterday.
"The boy told investigators about letters and poems and their precise location inside Michael's home. These letters were among the evidence seized, along with videotapes.
"They are very explicit and intimate and show a degree of familiarity. Basically, they appear to be love letters from Michael to the boy."
The accuser, 12-year-old Los Angeles cancer victim Gavin Arvizo, also told police Jackson's pet name for him was Rubba.
"The boy first told this to his therapist, then repeated it to police," the source said.
"He said Jackson called him Rubba because one of the games they used to play was called rubba rubba. The boy said, 'Michael told me he was my rubba rubba friend."'

That is enough cigars for Michael, for the time being.

[subgenius]

Well here's a morbid thought. He probably molested the kid with cancer figuring he'd be dead before he could testify.
