Some of us, and I'd hope most of the population.
Just like to balance things and fully explore all and particularly both sides.

I have one of the most suspicious minds imaginable, however that works both ways too.
I am suspicious of both accusers and accused.

Words are easy to say and anything can be said either way too.
However when it happens that for near decades someone has said and sworn one thing.
Then changes their minds years after that sends my suspicious bells ringing.

These 2 were around at the Chandler issue and the other charges brought against MJ.

They saw no one go to prison.
So saw they could speak out.
To do so when who they are accusing is dead and adding a claim for money.
That has really fired up my suspicious mind, to the point I don't trust them and don't believe their testimony can be trusted.

It is serious to abuse children, it's one of the worst crimes.
It also is equally serious to accuse someone of it too.

To do so.
After never doing so all the time the person was alive to put their side, is worrying.

I know, and have come across groomed and sexually abused individuals.
Of all of them,.I have yet to find one who even wanted to keep anything that reminded them of their abuser, never mind doing so.

I weigh all up.
I would be the first to say MJ was really strange.
Even that I consider it inappropriate to share a bed with children.

However, that in itself does NOT prove he molested them.
All the investigations in the rooms they were in,the thorough checks done, all produced no evidence of sexual abuse.

So that's why I do not believe these 2 now and stay with the not guilty verdicts on all charges at his trial.
Where he, Michael Jackson defended himself and was submitted to cross examination as to his defence.

Something these 2 are never likely to have to do despite their changed minds and their accusations now.

I for one, just like to explore all sides and hear what all involved say, in any of these cases.
As to accusers and the one/s accused.

We've heard here and elsewhere, this is why sexual abuse cases fail because the accusers are not believed.

On the other side, the point is as I've come across, so many cases are rooted in false accusations at times too.
Which often can have equally devastating effects on the accused, even at times too after acquittal.
