I just saw "leaving neverland", the 4 hour documentary about michael jackson and his alledged sexual abuse of little boys.
And though i do not want to speculate about his possible guilt or innocence, i must say that one thing does stand out to me....that whether he is guilty or innocent, the justice system failed big time here, regarding this case. Because:
-if he is innocent, then the american justice system has facilitated a very mean and ugly smearcampaign of realy horrible lies, only to squeeze some money out of an innocent man.
-if he is guilty, than his lawyers have done a little more than just defending him in court. Because then they have been facilitating the systematic sexual abuse of little boys, for well over a decade. By buying people off, by letting parents sign "i won't sue" contracts, by forcing people to give false testimonies.
In either case, the, in this case, american justice system is corrupt to the core. Not worthy of the title "justice system", because not having anything to do with justice anymore, but only with money.
And it has to be one of those two. There is no harmless scenario here. It is either facilitating slander, or facilitating rape....without a care.
