Jackson was smart. He wouldn't do anything to people who were going places. He knew nobody would believe those other kids. (Which is true, millions of people don't believe them) But if Culkin said anything, people would believe it right away..

reply

Are u just speculating this theory or is this a fact?

reply

Just mental gymnastics to explain away how obvious it is that Jackson never did any of those things.

reply

It's completely laughable to think people still believe he didn't molest kids.

reply

What would be laughable if it weren't so sick & demented is how some people just REALLY, REALLY want to believe the molester narrative despite no credible evidence to support it and lots of evidence that contradicts it.

reply

This argument is also very silly. If a woman is brutally raped by 5 men in an alleyway, and then tells people who did it, you wouldn't believe her because there's no "Evidence". I mean, whaddya expect her to do, ask her rapists "hold on a sec, lemme record this with my video camera... for evidence."

There's no "evidence" because shit took place in a room without cameras. Two people came forward in the documentary, along with OTHER kids who never had this "money" motive. It's all up to interpretation. My interpretation is he molested kids.

reply

Unfortunately the burden of your apparent limited capacity or willingness to understand a what constitutes credible evidence pointing towards one's potential guilt or innocence in these cases is on you.

And there are no "OTHER" kids/parent accusers who didn't have a clear financial motive. That's a flat out lie. %100 percent of the accusers had documented financial motive.

It's only "open to interpretation" to those who choose to ignore the overwhelming evidence that discredits these PROVEN liars. Really makes me wonder about the kind of mindset of some of these people who simply "PREFER" the narrative of children being molested on the basis of "Evidence? What evidence? Who cares? Open to interpretation i say!"

reply

Well to start with if a woman is raped by 5 guys there is going to be evidence, not just DNA evidence from the guys that raped her but also from the damage to the woman's vagina which would show evidence of forced sex.

Now apply that same reality to the boys that have now claimed MJ molested them. Well to begin with you should have some evidence. Even if you don't have the DNA evidence you would still have damage to the anal tissue from being molested. If you don't have any physical evidence then you where are the police reports that should have been filed as soon as little boy X got back to his parents. The fact is those accusations didn't happen until way down the road from when it supposedly happened. Well that brings up a significant amount of doubt and you are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. In non of the instances is was anything proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

Was MJ weird as hell? Yes. Did he molest kids? I don't know, nor do you know. MJ knew, and the accusers know. So you can go on and accept the word of those kids now that they waited years after the supposed act happened, but frankly I don't give a lot of credibility to anyone that wait to come forward with an accusation.

reply

If Jackson was molesting children, Culkin would be a bad victim choice. Way too high profile.

reply

Yet some some people are still deluded enough to believe that he would be molesting a kid in a family of proven lying grifters AFTER both being featured in a highly publicized, & negatively spun documentary. That's about as high profile/high risk as it gets. Basically in order to believe this nonsense you have to believe that the man was simultaneously a diabolical, criminal mastermind who never left a spec of compromising evidence & also a complete retard willing to commit these crimes with a spotlight directly on him.

reply

Lol yep.

reply

And another thing. In minds of those still clinging the molester narrative & that Jackson simply didn't do any of that with or even around Culkin is because he was "too high profile " I'd like to ask if Jackson's motivation for hanging out with young boys was to butter them up and groom them for molestation then why waste so much of his personal time (more than with anyone else) with Culkin at all only to have to "deny" himself and be on his absolute best behavior at all times around him? In fact whom he developed the closest & longest lasting friendship with.

All that for what exactly? It has to take some serious mental gymnastics to try to make sense of that.

reply

Threadkiller, you're missing the obvious:
in the Jackson the evil genius world of things, our mastermind would be hanging out and wasting time on Culkin in order to create an alibi in case he needs some character witness.
It's part of his diabolical plan: I'll fuck these kids right here, but I'll leave these others here untouched and unsuspecting, just in case the former sue me the latter will save my ass!
That's an obvious plot device for every evil geniuses (they usually are only found in cheap thrillers and pulp novels, but they might also exist in real life).

reply

You mean the simultaneously diabolical evil genius/completely incompetent retard he would have to be for the entire narrative to work. So diabolical, patient & clever to spend years developing an innocent but fake friendship as "cover".... but also mind numbingly retarded enough to go on to molest a boy in a family of lying grifters AFTER the boy was featured with him in a highly publicized & negatively spun documentary.

Bad fiction. Not real life.

reply

And then it didn't work. Michael was deeply disappointed if not devastated that Macaulay did not come forward during his first accusation or later trial, but only spoke out later.

reply

It's very convenient that Jackson is an evil genius for most of this theory and then becomes an idiot when occasion arises.
So he befriended Culkin only to have him as an alibi. But he didn't come out as a witness. So which one is it? A genius or a guy who wasted all this time to befriend a kid for no other reasons than have an alibi that never panned out?

reply

My personal theory is Michael Jackson had very bad habits such as not paying his employees. When grifters and gold-diggers came along making up stories, disgruntled employees were all too happy to lend them credence. He did weird stuff such as slumber parties with kids but I don't believe he hurt any child. The baby-dangling thing was bad, though.

reply

ASk yourself, would I have to do something crazy to become a singer?
Not if you stay independent. He didn't have to do it but he did.

reply

And ? What’s your point ?

reply

Parents of kids that actually get molested generally do not put a price on their child.

MJ is innocent.

reply

I personally think it's likely that Both MJ an MC were abused horrifically by people from within the Industry

There are stories of Joe Jackson letting young Michael go of with random men

We all know the Poltergiest whispers, Shirley Temple, Judy Garland the two Cories

I always thought once MJ got to Superstar status and starting having a bit of a go back( he's said loads of shit about the evil within the industry and made a few cryptic songs) that they say right we've had enough of you now you're not the cash cow you once were and a potential risk

So they get to work at destroying the image and credibility of a potential Bombshell

And if they really need to they will end up in a bathtub

reply

Macaulay's logic is "He didn't molest me, therefore he never molested anyone."
