Why can't MJ party hes a free man?
MJ can also do whatever he wants?
So i'm not understanding your rant
I am just ranting. LOL. That is all. I do not know if MJ partied after he was a free man. I do know that after the vindication, MJ went home and ate a turkey sandwich, according to Jermaine.
and some of u may remember, there have been many r(ah) threads started on this board yet they've always been closed and deleted b/c it turns into an r kelly vs mj argument OR people go off on a tangent for no reason
That is why I stated that MJ should not be discussed on this thread. However, now that we know the verdict in Kels trial, I do not mind some comparision. Just do not go overboard. I am just curious, Supersition, did you even follow the MJ trial and if you did, why do you "need to know" some things? There is an achiove section on here all about the trial. You can read about it. Just asking.
have the jurrors said much else except for the bit on tmz?
There is an MTV.com article that I read on thatGrapejuice.net:
CHICAGO -- The jurors in the R. Kelly child-pornography trial didn't doubt whether it was the singer on the tape — they just doubted whether it was the girl prosecutors said it was.
"I thought it was R. Kelly on the tape," juror #9 said after the verdict was rendered. "I just wasn't 100 percent on the girl."
The five jurors who agreed to speak to the press following their not-guilty verdict
said they felt the state hadn't presented enough evidence and that having the alleged victim on the stand would have made the difference.
"The key problem was the identity of the female," juror #23 said. "Her absence was a major lack."
"The family was too divided," said juror #9, who in the preliminary votes had voted for a guilty verdict. "So you had to discount the family testimony either way."
This didn't mean that the jurors bought all the defense arguments wholesale. The missing mole, for instance, was a non-issue, they said. They didn't want to examine the video any further, either.
"I've seen that video way too many times," juror #21 said. "The first time was too many."
Being sequestered — and the prospect of remaining sequestered over Father's Day — was not a factor in their quick verdict, they said.
"We wanted to go home, but we knew what we had to do," said juror #21. Nodding in agreement was juror #40, who just earlier that day had asked to be relieved of duty.
Had he — or juror #40 — been relieved, the vote would have gone very differently, said the three alternates who were dismissed earlier in the day. Jurors 65, 73 and 72 said in a separate news conference before the verdict was rendered that they were leaning toward guilty. "
My opinion leans towards that it is him with the girl in the video," said juror #65.
Things might have also gone differently had evidence of Kelly's marriage to a then-15-year-old Aaliyah or the criminal sexual conduct lawsuits against him been part of the case, the seated jurors said, but that was not what they were given to consider.
"I didn't even know about that," juror #23 said. "But as jurors, we have to act within the confines of the law and what is legally presented."
"It's all just speculation," juror #21 said. "Who knows what we would have found [otherwise]?"
*shakes head*
