Michael Jackson's Legal Troubles and Defense
That could mean life in prison, and cases like this can
depend on the testimony of the child accuser.
In general, uh, the child will be able to recall and
recollect with some detail the incident, and that is persuasive to a
jury, even if it is the only testimony that
is available.
Michael! Jackson gave a wave when he was released after
booking. He's scheduled for arraignment in January.
Michael's been a longtime resident of Trump Tower, and last night, The Donald
strongly reiterated his defense of Jackson with Larry King by going after
the accuser's mother.
She's had plenty of experience at going after people, and she goes
after him viciously and violently, and I saw a story, and
I read another story about some of the things she's done, and I
don't believe it.
But you know what it's like when an indictment comes down.
It's tough.
There's presumption.
He's tu- It's tough. It's tough to win, but I have a feeling he's
gonna win, Larry. The interesting thing is I've known Michael from
many different standpoints, and Michael would spend a lot of time with
my
kids. I have beautiful kids, and at the time, like at Mar-a-Lago,
and even in
Trump Tower, the kids were very young.
Michael would come play with the kids.
He just loved children. He was not a child molester,
and I am certain of that. He loved children.
He'd play with my son Eric and my son Donald, and he'd just
play with them forever. He loved children, but he was not a child
molester. And you know, that whole final saga of
Neverland and the police and what they did was, I think, a
very, very, a very, very bad part of Michael's life.
