[West Ender]

This is obviously a man with severe mental problems. His self-mutilation is witness to that.

Jackson has never denied that he slept with children. In his childish naiveté he did not, however, consider the implications of the euphamism, "sleeping with". I think there probably was some impropriety, it's what little boys do and Jackson seems to have the mentallity of a little boy, but I never believed that there was any sexual corruption or predation.

It is my opinion that rather than facing a trial, brought about only at the instigation of complicit parents looking for financial gain, Jackson should have been referred for psychiatric treatment. Any trial should have been reserved for the parents who, willingly, allowed their children to be exposed to the possibility of abuse then screamed for Big Bucks when the opportunity arose.
