Michael Jackson the Victim: The Untold Truth

SHARE:

Adjust text size:


The truth is finally coming out: Michael Jackson was innocent
Enlarge picture
On June 25, 2009, the final chapter in one of the most controversial histories of present times ended: Michael Jackson died from an overdose of the anesthetic Propofol, as his autopsy would later reveal. Two years after the shocking but, for many fans who’ve always believed in his innocence, perhaps not that unexpected, event, we have begun to clear the name of the King of Pop, as the untold truth comes out to light.

Late last week, Katherine Jackson, Michael’s mother, spoke to Matt Lauer about what it was like to stand so close in court to the man she believes is responsible for her son’s death, Dr. Conrad Murray, Michael’s personal physician who was with him on the tragic day.

She also said that the biggest misconception about Michael was that he was a molester.

This, in turn, led to more stories (but not nearly enough, given how much weight they bring to a case Michael himself had been making since 1993, when he was first accused of improper behavior with a minor) popping up online, uncovering documents dating back to the molestation trials which, in fact, confirmed what the general public and the media would never acknowledge: Michael Jackson was innocent.

Love is all the world needs, Michael would say

Michael Jackson. Best selling artist of all times. The King of Pop. The Gloved One. Jacko. Wacko Jacko. Freak. Pedophile. Monster

We are often told true talent always shines through and genius never goes by unnoticed, which is why we should learn to make the difference between the artist and the person s/he is in real life.

Clearly, that never applied to Michael Jackson, arguably the most talented pop artist ever to come out, and undeniably the most popular and successful: for nearly two decades, his last years of life, the media and the public deliberately chose to ignore the truth because scandal was a much more profitable business than actual fact.

We killed Michael Jackson.

Maybe it wasn’t you or me or the guy who lives next door, with who we cross paths occasionally when we come out to get the paper. Maybe it wasn’t X tabloid or Y celebrity magazine, or even Z journalist. But we did it together and we did it slowly and painfully, deliberately, by ignoring facts and focusing on the sensationalism of Michael’s life.

Facts

In 1993, when his personal life had already become tabloid fodder and not a day went by without at least one Jackson story, Michael Jackson was accused of molesting a child. 13-year-old Jordan Chandler and his father, Dr. Evan Chandler, went public with the story, prompting authorities to launch an investigation into the claims.

In December that same year, Neverland Ranch is raided by police: documents and other items are removed from the premises, and Michael is submitted to a 23-minute strip search that leaves him feeling so humiliated he will never recover from it.

Because of inconclusive evidence, the jury is disbanded and Michael is never prosecuted.

At his lawyers’ recommendations, Michael settles with the Chandlers outside of court even though, as Katherine said just recently, he didn’t want to because he knew that would make him appear guilty.

Facts

In May 2002, Michael decides to do something he’d never done before: very shy and fiercely protective of his personal life (not that anyone can blame him, though), he agrees to allow BBC journalist Martin Bashir and his cameras into his life for the chance to tell the world his story, unbiased, unedited and brutally honest.

Bashir had previously achieved international acclaim after a very revealing and groundbreaking interview with Princess Diana – it was Di who convinced Michael to do this because she trusted Bashir, which would explain why the singer never saw what happened next coming.

“Living with Michael Jackson” aired in the UK in March 2003, 10 years after the first molestation allegation was made. One particular scene shows Michael holding hands with Gavin Arvizo (13), as Gavin leans his head on the singer’s shoulder, and they talk about their sleeping arrangements for when the boy spends the night in Michael’s bedroom.

In the footage that the public saw at the time (heavily edited), there was no doubting Bashir’s intentions, as he repeatedly tells Michael it’s not normal for a 44-year-old to sleep in the same bed with other people’s children, asking him if he at least understood why people may see something wrong with it.

Innuendoes are, at times, more efficient than the strongest poison.

Unaware of what is being implied, Michael smiles throughout the whole “interrogatory,” saying there’s nothing wrong with it, that children need “touching” and “hugging,” and that love can heal the world - while stressing he and Gavin only shared the same room, but not the bed.

The public was shocked by what it saw: the apparent admission of a guilty man who, most importantly, laughed in their worried faces while admitting he did, indeed, sleep with children in the same bed.

Authorities acted accordingly, with Santa Barbara District Attorney Tom Sneddon out to get the public their guilty man: Michael was indicted for four counts of molesting a minor, four counts of intoxicating a minor, one count of abduction, and one count of conspiring to hold the boy and his family captive at Neverland.

On July 13, 2005, a jury finds Michael not guilty on all charges.

Also fact: Throughout the entire trial, the media deliberately reports only on the sensational claims made in court, ignoring testimonies and evidence that prove said claims are bogus, in what Charles Thomson of The Huffington Post aptly names “the most shameful episode in journalistic history.”

What We Were Told

It’s easy to dismiss the media plot to present the Michael Jackson trial in a skewed light as just another conspiracy theory because, you know it, that’s one of the appeals of a good conspiracy theory: to have it dismissed.

Nevertheless, there’s no denying that there was an intentional attempt at covering only the salacious and revolting aspects of it, especially since most of the media had already settled for a guilty verdict even before the jury was presented with the case.

The fact that Michael denied all charges counted very little. The fact that most testimonies proved false and that countless witnesses for the prosecution either ended up testifying for the defense or were found guilty of perjury counted even less.

While witnesses took the stand in court to speak in Michael’s defense, the media chose to have the public looking at something else: his court outfit, did he wear a wig or was that his real hair, didn’t he appear whiter than before – that must confirm he’s bleaching his skin, would he ever make music again, how does he look at himself in the mirror!?

In their crazed dash for ratings, the media forgot that its duty was to report objectively. Of course, we’re not talking about tabloids here, but about representatives of the media that boast of their unbiased coverage of all events: CNN, BBC, ABC, THR, and so on and so forth.

With it, the public forgot that once, this was a man who had brought so much joy and hope into their lives with his music, his dancing, his charity work, his honesty – and gladly took part in his lynching.

What We Did

By the time the jury returned with the unanimous verdict that Michael Jackson was not guilty on all charges brought against him, it didn’t even matter anymore: we had already made up our mind.

For the remainder of his life, Michael Jackson was branded a child molester even though he’d been through hell and back to prove that he was the exact opposite of that. For the media and the public opinion, the mere fact that he’d been found not guilty was proof of just how good he was – at hiding his true nature, that of a monster.

Michael Jackson: love

“A poll conducted by Gallup in the hours after the verdict showed that 54% of White Americans and 48% of the overall population disagreed with the jury’s decision of ‘not guilty.’ The poll also found that 62% of people felt Jackson’s celebrity status was instrumental in the verdicts,” Charles Thomson writes in the aforementioned piece.

“34% said they were ‘saddened’ by the verdict and 24% said they were ‘outraged.’ In a Fox News poll 37% of voters said the verdict was ‘wrong’ while an additional 25% said ‘celebrities buy justice.’ A poll by People Weekly found that a staggering 88% of readers disagreed with the jury’s decision,” he further informs.

That Michael Jackson had been found not guilty was, most ironically of all, proof that he was, because that was the most profitable story to sell. Even more, it was proof that he could get away with it.

With this, we ended Michael Jackson’s career, broke his spirit and tainted his image for eternity. And, yes, we killed him.

Today, so many years after all of the above, documents about what really happened are starting to make the rounds online. Fans – the only ones who have never doubted Michael’s innocence – are lamenting that it’s a little too late to make any difference, but that’s not entirely true: Michael’s children can still grow up knowing that the entire world does not think their father a monster.

And there’s still hope that the truth will eventually prevail.

Yes, we know all those things all along. We, the people who fallowed the story and not the media sensationalism, know all this and we were screaming at the lies and the negative reporting. I think now is too late to change things. A whole generation grew up thinking the worst about this man. Now is just too late...

Comment #1.1 by: bre on 22 May 2011, 15:52 GMT

no
i do not agree..we didnt kill him..i love him

Comment #1.2 by: Hallie on 16 Jan 2012, 02:54 GMT

Sadly, I am part of the generation of which you speak. Once a 7 year old girl a victim surrounded by circulating jokes aimed at him and, sad to say, my parents and grandparents both gave me seemingly good reason to believe this crap was true. I never knew his music. My parents weren't big fans. Now I'm 14, I have the facts straight, and I couldn't even tell you how sorry I am. All I can feel is utter shame. Only now do I see these things: Michael was Wicked talented. Most talent I've ever seen in one person. And, now I know why it was given to him. It doesn't take even meeting him to see how kind he was, and the Lord knew Michael would use those skills to completely change the world forever. And what did I give him? Hate and ridicule. I'm not even going to bother mentioning my age when these rumors came. I had a choice and blew it. I am deeply sorry.

Thank you for this article. I am glad to see a journalist pointing at the right direction.


Comment #5 by: Naty7 on 14 May 2011, 16:47 UTC reply to this comment

Thank you for reporting the truth. Michael was always innocent. He devoted his entire life to make the world a better place, helped thousands of people with his philanthropic work, but unfortunately this admirable human being was a victim of media and suffered countless injustices throughout his life. But, even it takes a little, the truth always prevails in the end.


Comment #6 by: tabccb on 14 May 2011, 18:20 UTC reply to this comment

Thank you, Ms. Gorgan, for such great reporting and commentary. The media's culpability in the lynching of Michael Jackson is disgusting. I was always a fan of Michael Jackson's music but didn't really know much about his private life...not even the 1993 and 2004-2005 accusations. Upon his passing, I began to research his life and it became quickly apparent to me that the press had not done their job properly in reporting on Michael Jackson for a good portion of his life. Even now, a story about the DFCS report in both the 1993 and 2004 cases stating they found no wrong doing on the part of MJ is not being picked up by mainstream media. I despair of them ever admitting they were wrong about this amazing man.

In addition, the media seems to be helping the defense of Conrad Murray in its effort to discredit Michael Jackson further in preparation for the upcoming trial in September. We must brace ourselves for more lies and sensationalism to be perpetuated in the media. Recently, Jane Velez-Mitchell's comments on a story about autopsy photos of Michael being allowed in court were most unprofessional and tabloidish. These comments focused on his skin color, nose, and appearance that the "public" so much wants to hear about. A professional woman who will be reporting on the trial of the man accused of killing the victim, Michael Jackson, goes into the assignment with an attitude like that. I am not sure who the media thinks their audience is with this kind of behavior. It certainly is not the nearly 33 million fans of Michael Jackson's facebook page.

THANK YOU Helena Gorgan. At last we read and see the TRUTH about Michael Jackson.
I hope other journalists join you and restore the truth for ever.

My name is Karen and I am part of the CADEFLAW GROUP that is trying to get the law changed in Ca in Michael's name for defamation of the dead. I am so glad this article and a couple of others have finally come out. We always knew Michael was innocent, he was a man with a childs heart and would not hurt a fly. This is why we are fighting so hard to get the law in Ca changed for the people who are being defamed after they are dead.
Please join us in our fight, we have hired an Atty in Ca and have been working on this project for over a year. Come to our website and join in our fight. Thank you, and God Bless you Michael. CADEFLAW.COM.


Comment #9 by: Gunngirl on 14 May 2011, 19:06 UTC reply to this comment

It hurt so much to read about the strip search and the raid. No wonder he couldn't sleep at night. It is also hurtful to read about the polls and how people were chomping at the bit for a guilty verdict--despite evidence. The thing is is that at the time a lot of the evidence in his favor wasn't even made public so most people believed him to be guilty.

I want to believe that with time information will be made public and opinions about him will be overturned. It is not right he be branded a child molester who 'got off'. This is where his celebrity hurt him. Michael went through such hell during this, I don't think I realized just how brutal this was for him. He is really a strong, strong person.


Comment #10 by: believediana on 14 May 2011, 19:14 UTC reply to this comment

thre truth must prevail, we are fighting for this and we won't give up Michael was Innocent and was not a child molester we must support his mother and help her it is now time for the truth


Comment #11 by: DarkChild on 14 May 2011, 20:21 UTC reply to this comment

"Innuendo's are, at times, more efficient than the strongest poison" is exactly correct. Most of the time we can recover from poisons, if discovered and treated with the proper anecdote in time.

However, recovery from innuendo's are usually never down sized or completely vanished. There's always going to be that percent who will always wonder whether there is any truth to the story; instead of accepting the facts as truth. But we all know the "Truth" doesn't excite but it does and will "Prevail".

Thank you for this article. Your last article was quite informative, also. Thanks for supporting @cadeflaw and the other advocacy groups. Together we can make a difference and "Michael’s children WILL grow up knowing that the entire world does not think their father was a monster."

If we start now, in the present time, we can change the next generation's opinions about Michael and what he really stood for. It's never too late. Every day we have the opportunity to clear the slate and start again. Don't give up on hope. It's the only thing we've got. Justice For Michael


Comment #13 by: Ms. The Truth ! on 15 May 2011, 01:26 UTC reply to this comment

"We" does NOT mean "ME" ! From day one I didn't have to even question, there was NO doubt in my mind that Michael Jackson was Innocent ! Thank you for this story so it can go all around this world. This is another piece that will penetrate the minds and hearts of those who added the hurt and pain he endured... They NEED to continue to Know ! I'm sure many feel so bad now of how they thought, what they they believed to be true back then till now. This story needs to rubbed in all their faces so when they wake from their nightmares... they'll go running to the Man In the MIRROR !


Comment #14 by: Maggie on 15 May 2011, 02:01 UTC reply to this comment

This is the truth. Clear and simple. I hope we never get anyone like Michael Jackson on this planet again, no one should have to be tortured to death like that.


Comment #15 by: Theresa Gallagher on 15 May 2011, 02:11 UTC reply to this comment

Thank you for printing the truth about a magnificent human being. Shame on our culture for passively allowing the media to lead us around by our collective noses. Michael was a victim of greed. He was a gift to a world that just did not deserve him. Michael fought an uphill battle all of his life. Image if his road would have been easier. Imagine if the world would have treasured and took care of his amazingly beautiful and creative soul. Imagine what great things we would have seen from him. Now we'll never know. I agree, the truth always prevails and that is what gives me hope that someday Michael's reputation will be fully restored. I am certain that someday, "the most shameful episode in journalistic history," as Charles Townsend wrote, will be touted as an example of what NOT to do by journalism professors at universities all over the world.


Comment #16 by: luella on 15 May 2011, 05:15 UTC reply to this comment

I feel bad that I was one of the ones who originally believed he was guilty...

Comment #16.1 by: Susan on 15 May 2011, 07:20 GMT

Me, too...I'm sure there are a lot of us who simply believed the press and took things at face value, and didn't look any deeper. It was just so ironic that he would be accused twice of the same crime. It seemed so hard to believe someone would be accused twice if they weren't guilty. And I was lazy, and didn't look into the matter.

I feel horribly for the way the police treated him, as well.

He was, indeed, very, very strong. Some people believe he did himself in on purpose with the Propofol. Believe me, if he had been the type of person to give up and do himself in, it would have been long before June 25, 2009.


Comment #17 by: annie on 15 May 2011, 10:48 UTC reply to this comment

I'm a long life fan of Michael,never for one minute belived in all the garbage said about him,i was then,and even now ,i feel so hurt on hearing such continues lies,asking myself,WHY,diong and giveing so much pain to a person like Michael,he gave so much love of his owne to help others all over the world,he did not derseve all that pain,and WE are all to blame, for all the suffering that he has gone throu,us fans have shouted out for years ,that he was not a monster,like the media was trying to make the world believe,but a person that was trying to help this insane world, full of hate and voilence,trying with all his strenth to make this world understand that LOVE is important,without love we are complettaly lost,and we have lost the only person that could have and would have brought LOVE back to the world.but others did not permit him to do so. I feel so guilty and hurt,for all the ingustice that Michael has gone throu,Michael IS and always will be, forever ,INNOCENT...Thank you Michael for shareing your love to the world,and in the name of all ,please FORGIVE us.Love you Michael, always.

Comment #19 by: Magsy on 15 May 2011, 11:42 UTC reply to this comment

Thank you Ms Gorgan for a concise and yet comprehensive account of what happened to Michael Jackson. What is most significant for me is that through the many trials and tortures he had to endure, he remained a man of great dignity, rarely caught in a moment of anger. Despite everything, his message was still that of love for the world. Let's hope the truth continues to permeate the public consciousness so that everyone can enjoy the wonderful legacy he has left us and Michael can finally rest in peace.

This is a great article. Thank you so much. It should be thrown at people, whether they like it or not. The fans already know and always knew. It is the general public, those who were confronted with the mass media insinuation during the last 2 decades that has to be confronted with articles like this. And it should be on TV as well. Thank you for writing this.

Why is Tom Sneddon not in GAIL yet...What is the LAW waiting for to throw that RATTIE SNAKE behind the bars...What prof does the law need to show that he was after Michael, putting lies on top of lies just for the sake of money.Thers nothing that can pay back all the ingustice that Sneddon put apoun Michael ...If the law is correct,and will admit that Sneddon was the cause of Michael's ingustice...The law's duty is to throw Sneddon in GAIL without a trail,because Sneddon is guilty for all the ingustice done agianst Michael...That Beast does not deserve to be a free man.....Gustice 4 Michael.


Comment #23 by: Bubbles on 15 May 2011, 19:58 UTC reply to this comment

This story saddens me to no end. The media picked Michael to persecute and thank God, the jurors saw the truth. It sickens me that the judicial system as well as the media make wrong decisions and fruitless accusations when, if they looked a bit deeper, the real TRUTH would be discovered. Alas, garbage sells. Believe me when I tell you that I know from experience what a wrongful conviction can do to a person's soul and spirit.


Comment #24 by: FirstBeKind on 15 May 2011, 21:04 UTC reply to this comment

Thank you, Elena. Excellent research and written with respect. It will be a great day in America when the media has the courage to finally stand up and say....."We got it wrong. We systematically and pitilessly destroyed the life of an innocent man". The apologies will come, eventually, but just like the moving song, "It's too late to apologize".

Yes, we all played a role. Remembering the words of Martin Luther King, Jr..... "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter". Too many of us looked away. We chose to be silent. My heart will never be the same.


Comment #25 by: MJFEVER on 15 May 2011, 22:41 UTC reply to this comment

This is indeed a great article. My one concern is with the statement regarding the settlement in the 1993 allegations. Michael's concern was not that the settlement would make him FEEL guilty, but that it would make him LOOK guilty. I would hope perhaps that statement could be corrected for those who have not yet read the article. Small details like this can often sway people away from what the real truth is. Thank you to anyone who can look into this matter.

Comment #25.1 by: J. Leone on 16 May 2011, 00:45 GMT

Yes, I noticed this too. It should be "LOOK".

Comment #25.2 by: Elena Gorgan on 16 May 2011, 06:52 GMT

I am terribly sorry for this, "look" is what I meant, definitely not "feel." A correction has been made, thank you so much for pointing it out to me.

Best,
Elena


Comment #26 by: J. Leon on 16 May 2011, 00:03 UTC reply to this comment

Thank you, once again for printing the truth about Michael Jackson and how this kind and gentle genius was systemmatically destroyed by the media. Even in death, those who have made their career on bashing Michael Jackson continue to feast on him like vultures. Our forefathers who gave us the gift of "freedom of speech" had no way of knowing how it would be used to destroy a person's life merely for sensationalism and profit.


Comment #27 by: nutsbutnice on 16 May 2011, 16:28 UTC reply to this comment

Thankyou for a very in depth account of the TRUTH!!!...may I differ slightly on something please?....Michael DID NOT admit to sharing a bed with Gavin or indeed any other minor....Michael admitted to sharing a ROOM, eating cookies, watching Disney etc, he also had the permission of the Parent who was staying in the room next to Michaels. I'm not at all suggesting that you 'mislead' anyone as I can tell you have so much love for Michael & the injustice that he so regretably suffered. I'm sure in the interview concerned what was said was something along these lines;
Michael wanted Gavin to have the bed & him to sleep on the floor but seeing as it was Michael's bedroom Gavin wanted Michael to have the bed & for him to sleep on the floor. They laughed & joked awhile & then Michael said to Gavin "If you love me you will sleep in the bed."
That's what Martin Bashir edited to make it sound as though Michael was saying to Gavin, that if he loved him then Gavin would sleep in the bed WITH MICHAEL. Which Michael did say at all or imply. Please check both interviews both the edited Martin Bashir one & the unedited Michael Jackson one..as I am writing this from memory & am willing to take this all back if my memory has let me down.
Again thankyou so much for spreading Michael's love & supporting him xxxx

Comment #27.1 by: Elena Gorgan on 17 May 2011, 06:17 GMT

@nutsbutnice, your memory serves you perfectly, this is exactly what happened, I saw both interviews. You're also right in saying that me not mentioning that part about Michael sleeping on the floor could be seen as an attempt at misleading on my part: rest assured that is not the case.

A correction has been made to the article to leave no room for doubt anymore. Thank you for pointing this out to me, you're a true and wonderful fan. :)

Best,

Elena

Comment #27.2 by: Nina on 17 May 2011, 22:11 GMT

You may think I am being picky, but it is important; didn't you mean after 'WITH MICHAEL', 'which Michael did NOT say or imply'?

A very caring MJ advocate.

a true angel sent from god, i never doubted his inocence ever i always suported him and stuck up for him when i heard the bad things they were saying, its to late now for them to repent the wrong they did to this lovely loving man. i will love you always michael r.i.p x


Comment #29 by: Jordan on 20 May 2011, 16:23 UTC reply to this comment

The truth runs in marathons as Michael said himself.

I agree with the fact that the media and the tabloids killed Michael, I knew this all along when I heard Michael died, I said it's the media's fault he's gone and not just the media, the accusers and those stupid MJ haters out there they've also killed him. The media turn the truth into lies that feeds people that kind of crap and make people stupid to accept and handle the truth, which is why I always say "Opinons are nothing but a biggest excuse from not listening to the actual truth." People who think Michael does abuse kids are just the most stupid kind of people on this planet, it's their fault he's gone. PERIOD!

As for the authorities did to Michael in 93' and 03', was unacceptable, telling kids to lie about that Michael did this and that to them and brutally cuffed him that gave him injuries, authorities are just a big liars and scumbags as the media and haters are, they cannot be trusted. PERIOD!

God knows, I know and we all know Michael is always innocent, he loves kids, even his own. PERIOD!

Michael has been through hell for years because of lies, now these people who gave Michael hell should rot in hell for what they did to Michael and killed him.

Learn from my quote "It's not an opinion. It's the truth."

Michael Jackson will always be the best and I love him always.

Dear Elena, thank you so much for spreading the article with the truth.


Comment #32 by: whitespider on 24 May 2011, 01:34 UTC reply to this comment

Michael suffered a great deal, because of media lies. Martin Bashir whose documentry Living With Michael Jackson, that was a deliberate attack on Michael. As we all know it was the catylist for the charges of sexual abuse of a minor. We know that Michael was never guilty. What was done to Michael was a crime. Michael clearly is the victim. Some will continue to be influenced by the media, others are wakeing up to the fact that the media, dosen't always tell the truth. The music industry is corrupt as it always has been. People are for the first time seeing the truth. I pray there is some justice for Michael Jackson.

Any and everybody that hurt Micheal new that they were wrong. If alot of people wouldve appritiated the one king of pop then the true one wouldve possible been here today. For the ones that locked him up and put him in a cell of crap should be done the same way.

This isn't going to be a popular opinion.

Our society did at the very least contribute to his death because we tend to lash out against everyone and anyone that seems different. And? So what?

Our society kills a lot of people every. single. day. Gay teens that can't cope with being alone, victims of drunk driving, smoking, innocents around the world that die due to hypocritical foreign policy that creates starvation...Michael is just one victim, and he isn't any more of a tragedy than anyone else that dies because of our greedy, selfish society that attacks those that are different. He's just more famous.

I think it is unethical that people invest and care so much about the fate of celebrities (or those immediately around them) while simultaneously ignoring the rest of the suffering planet. If people cared about those without a voice as much as they cared about celebrities, this planet would be a lot different, but stuff like that isn't fun and entertaining. We like to say that everyone is equal, but we definitely don't mean it.

Blame yourselves: that media sensationalism everyone seems to hate is what people demand; TMZ isn't around because its ratings suck. You want objective, factual reporting? Too bad the masses think facts are too boring and news companies are fueled by profit. This is the circus people want.

Finally...why the heck do people even form opinions about guilt or innocent during a trial? Unless you're sitting in the court room, you don't know all the details of the case, and passing judgement on some guy you pretend to know about an incomplete case you're almost completely ignorant of is inherently foolish no matter the trial or individual. Unless you're a member of the jury, your misinformed, premature opinion on guilt or innocence is not relevant. Let's try to remember that during the next stupid celebrity trial...

Do you realize what a difference he made in this world? 39 charities. Visiting hospitals on every stop of every tour. Countless others behind closed doors. If this isn't a tragedy, I don't know what is.

There is so much to say about Michael's heart and love. Godly Love, which was proved by the hatred toward him in this world, which all the messengers of God went through. We blindly let them kill our profits while we stand aside and look. But I want to understand why these children have not yet stood up and apologize to the World. Who knows what kind of threats the government poses to them if they do come clean, after all this is a great conspiracy, but they need to come clean despite worldly consequence. This thing is so much bigger than we can even dream of, Michael knew something about high corruption in parts of the government, MJ was a huge threat, they successfully eliminated it. But the truth will come out, hopefully in our life.
