Court TV and the Jackson Case...

I've been watching Court TV a lot lately, the MJ trial coverage.
I particularly like Nancy Grace ( Hello, Friend!) and Diane Diamond.
It was funny because I heard something today, speculation, rumor.
They were discussing whether or not Jacko will make a run for the border
if he's found guilty, and that made me laugh. : )

Because think about it: Isn't it a little hard to NOT spot Michael Jackson
somewhere? Especially since he has taken to wearing this Kabuki- like
white face paint. It's masklike. Someone ought to sell those. White Kabuki-like
MJ masks for Halloween, with the jacked-up( pun intended) nose and everything.
Reminds me of the mask that Michael Myers is wearing in the Halloween movies.
The stark white William Shatner mask. Yep. Someone should sell those.

But my original point is that with the glaring white face on a tall, skeletal man in
a black suit with cravat and 500 lonnies following along as an entourage, he would
be a little hard to miss. All the loonies outside the courthouse would join the entourage.
Itwould be like a giant MJ juggernaut, rolling towards the border and picking up steam as it
goes. lol
THAT'S why it made me laugh when they were discussing whether MJ would run for
the border.

On that subject, there were things that they talked about on CourtTV, little details
and facts that weren't allowed in trial. Things that the jury wasn't allowed to hear
or consider. These things, had they known about them, would have swayed their
votes towards guilty, and whoa, oh shit, the jury is back with a verdict! It's 12:40pm
PST.
Hmm, we'll see what happens.
But to continue my line of thought...No matter WHAT the jury decides today, they
WOULD have found him guilty of the molestation charges, had they been privy to
certain bits of information. As it is,
I would find him guilty of the alcohol charges, and molestation charges, and not-gulity of
the conspiracy charges. I've been paying attention. Do I think he is guilty of the conspiracy
charges? Yes. But did they do a good job of proving it in trial? No.

Mesereau was clearly sharper than Sneddon. Sneddon had a lot of juicy stuff to work
with, and Mesereau didn't have squat, but he managed to spin enough reasonable doubt out of nothing. Even with a bunch of his witnesses actually making the prosecution's case
instead.
Oops, I gotta go watch and see what this verdict is going to be...
