I suspect none of us on here know for sure whether he done anything indecent with children but because of his persona, created by Michael himself and the media a lot of people choose to believe that he did.
I certainly do not know where the fact stops and the fiction starts re the Michael Jackson "life" story.
I don't think much of his father that's for sure. I don't think Michael was that fond of him either, some say that's where all Michaels "problems" stem from, that and his fame from a very young age.
There is no doubt he was talented maybe his music was not to everyones taste but he did have talent and he could dance. I think his gigs in London would have been awesome.
Still x amount of days after his death the pantomime that surrounds him the is still very prevelant (secrets, facts, fiction) and this time round the guy is dead so he can't be blamed.
Maybe Gladys Knight is correct that we are all to blame for his life and his death.
