Poll question: If convicted, do you think Michael Jackson will go to prison?
Edited on Sat Feb-26-05 10:30 AM by CanuckAmok
I mean... I think prison would ben an unusually dangerous place for him. I can see a judge agreeing with any defence argument that he would be singled-out for harm, the way Jeffrey Dahlmer was.

So... what do you think will happen to him, if, in fact, he is given a prison sentence?

edit: added the "fleeing" option.

1. No sympathy for poor Michael. Not for those crimes...
But don't worry for him. He will have no trouble finding someone to protect his sorry white ass.

And thats only IF he is convicted.

2. I think he'll flee the country
if convicted - and I think he will be.

7. He'll either flee
or kill himself. I can't see how he could survive it.

8. He can hang out with * and Ted Nugent.
Of course, that's less than 100 miles from me - I'd hate to have such a dangerous sexual predator so close. </sarcasm>

9. he will do an album called " Dough Ray Me "
a concept album about a tortured man child who abuses greedy parent's pimped out kids so the parents can be close to the celebrity of myth they never had. It will sell 29 billion units,Wonderland Ranch will be franchised and moved to Bancock and run by Haliburton.The money from kiddy porn slaves will be subverted to the neocon facists take over of the galaxy and they will call liberals evil.
If and when Jackson does time,I want his dad and the parents of the kids that sent thier kids to play with uncle Mikey to do time too.Everyone yes man around uncle Mikey should pay thier karmic dues .

11. More like Woody Allen
Polanski, although what he did is reprehensible, is not a notorious, serial diddler.

13. Huh?
Polanski was accused of raping a 14-year old girl.

Woody Allen had sex with an 18-year old, then married her.

16. Ummm,
do you remember the allegations of sexual abuse? I mean Mia Farrow is a bit nuts, but really.

17. Yes I remember them
I believe they were entirely unfounded. The fact that somebody in the midst of such a tumultuous break-up would make some claims isn't evidence for their truth.

Neither the police nor the courts gave the allegations any credibility.

And yes, Mia Farrow is a bit nuts.

12. I wonder if he knows how many fathers there are in the joint?
They don't take kindly to child molesters; their own crimes are beside the point, as far as they are concerned.

14. LOL, womens' prison... if Michael gets jailed, he'll be given the same
treatment as Andrew Cunanan and Jeffery Dahmer.

15. I don't think he can flee though, can he?
He surrendered his passport, did he not?

21. He cold still, in theory, flee without his passport
The practicality is you don't need a passport to leave the country by private jet or ship.

In theory, if he could get to a African nation with no extradition treaty with the US, they'd admit him, and their own press would derscribe him as a victim of a frame-up, to pacify the local people.

18. I am really thinking that this is a man who should be on suicide watch.
That is just my thought. If he's found guilty, I doubt he'll last the day.
