And show business is rough. Generally the number one concern is money. And behind the scenes, it can be a very filthy, corrupt place. And while most grown-ups can tolerate it, children cannot. I don't think people should judge Michael unless something can be proved. Previous charges against him have been dropped in exchange for money. I find that suspicious. It leads me to believe that people send their children to Michael or allow their kids to spend time with him so that they can fabricate a story to steal a couple million off him. The reason he doesn't charge back or defend himself is because he's psychologically stunted. He still has the mentality of child and people take advantage of that.
If infact he did do something wrong, he can't help it. He's been mixed up and damaged. Give him some sympathy and just appreciate the wonderful things he's done with his talent.
