Not proven guilty and innocent are two very different things...

He is hardly innocent.

Each road you travel should be just a bit better for having had you pass.

We are only entitled to our opinions on this one, Karl. Those in a much more informed position found him not guilty of ALL charges. Innocent until proven guilty as far as I'm concerned.

Bill, that pic of MJ on the Seg is great! We should have a thread dedicated to celebs (or other influential people), caught on Segway's (so to speak). In the UK, Richard Branson, Alan Sugar or a member of the Royal family would be great! I'm sure I read somewhere on BAE's site that Prince Charles has been on one!

I don't believe that's MJ..

Right, they found him not guilty, but "not guilty" != "innocent". In fact a defendant can't be found innocent, so perhaps the quote should be "Innocent until tried" or "Innocent until found not guilty or proven guilty." It seems like a bargain pretrial, you get to be innocent for a while. Hmm...maybe that could be a poem. Ah just for fun here's one for MJ, it's no ode but then I never promised a rose garden.

You're innocent for only a while,
Before they take you off to a trial,
and the jury comes in
finds you guilty as sin
Then there's never a reason to smile.

But the witness had made a mistake,
Your lawyers cried foul, she's a fake!
the jury agreed
and you have been freed
Just avoid setting up a remake.

And there is nothing wrong with Tom Cruise because he knows all about psychiatry, and he said so because Matt Lauer knows nothing.

Where goeth I, goeth my Segway.

As I recall, Jackson was found not guilty of that specific series of charges for that one time period/child/family. He was found not guility more because the mother of the accuser was thought to be a liar. If the mom had been more credible, the outcome might have been different. (And I'm not saying whether it should have been or not.) This is more a case of the accuser's mom being found guilty, I think. (Of a crime she wasn't on trial for.) The criminal justice system in america is .... interesting. IMHO - but yes, he was found not guilty of molesting that child. There was at least one jury member (and maybe more, I just remember an interview with one) who said they thought he had probably molested children, just not that one, because they didn't trust the mother not to have put the child up to a false accusation.

Tom Cruise surprised me. He may have studied "psychiatry" but I doubt that he's studied neurology. If he hadn't been quite so fast to interrupt and basically shout down Matt Lauer, I might have had a little more respect for him. I hope that his little Katie doesn't come down with post-partum depression. That's a little cauldron waiting to explode.
