This review is from: Michael Jackson: The Untold Story of Neverland (DVD)

I never believed that Michael Jackson was guilty of child molestation. Not because I’m some over the top or obsessed fan who believes that an icon can do no wrong…because that’s not who I am. I’m just a 42 year old woman who grew up listening to some Michael Jackson tunes once in awhile. I loved some of his songs, and I hated some of his songs. But I was never one to follow his every move, nor did I watch every music video, or try to catch his every appearance on TV. I was however always intrigued and captivated when I did see Michael on the screen or hear his music. He had a talent that commanded attention, and a passion for helping others, especially children, and I always admired him for that.

So I remember standing in my living room when I caught a glimpse of Michael on TV, as he spoke out against the horrible crimes against a child for which he had been accused. Just looking at the pain in his eyes and listening to the power of his voice, I did not see a child molester. Whatever they were accusing him of, I just could not believe to be true, because I could not see one trace of guilt on that man’s face, nor in his voice as he pleaded with the world not to condemn him for something he did not do.

But the media sure seemed to paint a different picture of Michael Jackson, one that seemed to convict him early on. And it was so insane to me that so many people suddenly looked at him and talked about him differently, as if it was just so easy to believe he was guilty. Because after all, if a man likes children, he must be a pervert too, right? And when he agreed to settle with the accusers for a large sum of money, that seemed to make everything worse. To many people, that made him guilty.

When the second case came along, it definitely didn’t help Michael in his efforts to rebuild an image that had become so badly tarnished. And for many who had their reservations about his innocence before, the new charges erased any doubt. But not for me. My very first thought was, someone wants money–they saw him pay off the last family, so surely he’d pay again. Easy target. And as the trial unfolded, I watched with sadness as this once energetic and magnetic personality seemed to withdraw even further within himself, inside a cocoon of obvious pain. He was acquitted of every single charge, but he was condemned in the minds of many people and viewed as some freakish form of evil (his obsession with plastic surgery only seemed to add fuel to this fire). And you could tell when it was all over that Michael Jackson had become a different person, a shell of his former vibrant self. I can only imagine how betrayed he felt by his accusers, and by those who would believe the most vile of lies about him. No wonder he left the country!

When I found this DVD last week, I ordered it right away and couldn’t wait to watch it, and it definitely confirmed to me what I have believed this entire time: MICHAEL JACKSON WAS INNOCENT! As was noted in the DVD, if he was guilty of anything, it was only bad judgment. But he sure paid a high price for that, in so many ways.

I only wish that this video had aired on TV long ago, to help combat all the lies and negativity that followed MJ even long after the acquittal. More people need to see this DVD. More people need to know the truth–that Michael Jackson was a talented, compassionate, and caring human being, who had flaws just like the rest of us. But he was not a child molester; rather, he was a victim of lies and outright extortion, and of the tabloid journalism that would follow him until he took his very last breath.

I can’t help but wonder how differently things might have turned out, if this video had been broadcast on national TV sometime after the acquittal. Surely, it would have had a positive effect on how people viewed him. And that could have had a major impact on the course of Michael’s life over the last few years. Who knows what might have happened, had Michael not felt the need to run away from the spotlight after the trial, and from a public that seemed only too happy to vilify him. But we’ll never really know, will we?

This review is from: Michael Jackson: The Untold Story of Neverland (DVD)

This documentary shows the True Insight into a present day “Salem Style” type Witch Hunt. The Target? A world famous Star and Humanitarian accused by a deceptive family, coaxed by the Law Enforcement, and manipulated by rating hungry world media Networks and their reporters…..
It’s An Honest open minded look behind the Beautiful Gates of Neverland Ranch, MJ and lets you see what the Media and Sheriff’s Office did not reveal, or want you to know. I loved this documentary and watched it twice upon it’s arrival, and you will want to too. In addition, I appreciated Larry Nimmer taking the time to contact me about a possible delay of delivery and the new updated ending that was added with the Jackson Memorial services. I Still received it very Quickly and way before estimated delivery date !! Thank you for such a Great DVD !!!
