Michael Jackson’s FBI File Revealed: It’s Creepy!
On Tuesday the FBI released their file on Michael Jackson. I guess enough time/distance has gone by since Jacko’s death where the moment is right to pull out his dirty laundry. The 333 page published on the FBI’s website mostly focus on the various child molestation allegation against the gloved one, stemming from 1992-2005.
The FBI case files were made public following Freedom of Information Act requests filed after the pop star’s June 25 death. According to CNN, such TMX-style tidbits include a Canadian social worker:
The woman said she was on a cross-country train trip when she “heard questionable noises through a wall.” Michael Jackson was in an adjoining compartment in the train, she told investigators.
Take a gander of the doc and let us know what you think of Michael Jackson and his questionable noises:
Noises through the wall? Er...right.
It amazes me that in these supposedly sophisticated media-savvy times, people don't realize just how easy it is to allege something about someone, and how that then gathers its own momentum. Reading between the lines, it's clear that Tom Sneddon wanted and needed FBI endorsement of his investigation, to add gravitas to his deeply personal and careerist pursuit of Michael Jackson. It is perhaps understandable why people struggle to relate to Mr Jackson even now. He was different to most. He believed in giving children the real affection he, himself had been denied. Naive, maybe - but he was no molester. The problem, was a matter of perception. People found, and still find it difficult to believe that someone who looked the way Michael did - could be 'innocent.' And by the time the media had distorted the hearsay heavy allegations into sordid sensationalism, no-one was paying attention to the fact that there was no substantive basis to them. Despite its inflammatory title, Aphrodite Jones's book - 'The Michael Jackson Conspiracy' is a serious read with real information. Don't let the fact that Michael undeniably had self-image issues prejudice your search for the reality behind the headlines.
Because the truth is, something beyond vicious was done to this man, and three young children are now paying the highest price possible for our -'entertainment.'
Dogmatic Jacksonists
"Noises through the wall" is an anti-argument...?
Jackson had a textbook about the sexual maturity/stages of puberty of boys, and much more generic porn under his bed. He shared the porn and drank alcohol with the children he (allegedly, if you must) molested. The booze and smut weren't even contested. They are recognized as facts by anyone who followed the case. Alone, this evidence is not conclusive, but it sure doesn't look good...
Dozens of witnesses have testified against Jackson over the years. When another one surfaces, and someone reacts with something like "Another allegation? That PROVES he was innocent!" that person is a dogmatist. That means they've decided to believe something (i.e: that Jackson didn't rape children) against any and all evidence to the contrary. They believe it is true simply "because it is true".
Holocaust deniers use similar anti-logic. I've read statements from them like, "Now some organisation of Polish and Hungarian Jews are claiming they have new evidence proving their families were murdered by the Nazis. It's so obviously not true..." No counter-argument offered. Just evidence-impervious, thought-free certainty.
The "man" (or "piece of garbage" - my pet name for Jackson) had a troubling childhood, certainly. The same can be said of Charles Manson. Obviously, neither can be excused for their evils with this whiny cop-out. It's sad that many murderers and rapists like Manson and Jackson had difficult childhoods, but I can't help but feel a LOT more sympathy for their victims.
I hope more evidence is released, and that some of Jackson's more thought-capable supporters may pause and reflect upon their well-meaning, yet ignorant and close-minded, praise.
There are plenty of dead, talented musicians who WEREN'T repeatedly in courtrooms on charges of sexually molesting children, nor attempting to surgically alter themselves so as to look less like minorities (and more like brittle, sickly, aliens perma-dazed on hard drugs).
I highly recommend that fans choose another idol to venerate.
