Nice write up, well said! :thumb:pablo wrote:There is no question that his personal life crossed the line of morality and the court case did nothing to prove or disprove the allergations. Why was he not charged with a lesser offence if they couldn't prove the main charge.
The only innocent parties in this were the children, even some of the parents have questions to answer. If my child came to me with allergations of sexual abuse there's no way on gods green earth that I could be paid off. WTF. I would want that person dead....to be blunt.
He inspired a lot of people with his music videos and dance only to repulse them with the person he came.
I grew up with his music and my lad was a massive fan until all this came out. We didn't talk about it or him for years, after all how do you explain to your kid that his idol is quite possably a peado. and how do you come to terms with these allergations against someone that you yourself admired, when you are working as a youth worker.
The day all this came out is the day Jacko died, only no one buried him. When I see pictures of who he became it fills me with sorrow, anger and hatred, but when I hear some of his earlier music it does trigger happy memories of family and friends, yet it feels wrong.
If I had never been into his music I wouldn't have these memories, that's the problem. I dispiese what he became and what he did, but I love the memories of my lad trying to moonwalk.
Well he's dead now.......so back to the important things, is that bloody car working.
