Also, he never really suffered from his civil conviction for the murders where he had to pay a large sum to the family members of his ex and her lover, since pensions are protected from this. So he has been living large of his big NFL 'pension' all these years even though he was still young enough for a normal man to be working.
Sure, he was put away in the end - but given ALL that, it's a freaking joke he wasn't in jail already right? Celebs may go to jail in the US, but they need to pull a whole mess of shit to do so.

Lately the whole thing had been in limbo with the occasional joke, and now that he died he's suddenly a freaking saint. As so often.
Personally, I always point out to people that he always settled for huge sums in those court cases with kids' parents. Sure, you can settle once to get stuff done, but every time? That stinks. Especially in the US, where celebrities don't go to jail.
For me, MJ is the funny difference between a child molester who works at McDonalds and a child molester who's an international superstar and (once) unmeasurably rich music legend. One has to inform his neightbours when he moves and is despided and hated by those around him, is hated even by fellow prisoners and will probably die in miserable conditions. The other settles court cases, has fans defending him, and dies a saint with half the world population crying for him. Mmm.
Humans beings have an uncanny knack for confusing financial success or any sort of genius with a sound and healthy personality, when the truth is that they often have nothing to do with each other.

Don't get me wrong, musical genius, but definitely a crack pot.
That being said, the pictures are fucking brilliant and creepy.
