And that is, you know, I say in the article that I think the jury's verdict was reasonable.
They could have gone the other way, but acquittal was appropriate under the circumstances because there are so many holes in the prosecution's case because of these witnesses.
Well, I believe she was on the stand for something like five days.
And the reason she was important is because the prosecutor had sought to upcharge the child molestation allegations by also saying that Michael Jackson and his employees had essentially kidnapped the family and forced them to stay at Neverland Ranch to make these exculpatory interviews.
And that was a bad mistake by the prosecution because, you know, Janet Arvizo took the stand.
She snapped her fingers at the jury.
She lectured.
She went on long, rambling excursions.

And so she was completely non-credible and Mesereau painted her as sort of a grifting con artist willing to do anything.
to extort money from the Jackson estate.
Now, it's true she didn't sue him before the criminal trial, but as we both know, had Michael Jackson been convicted, then the civil judgment against him would have been just a matter of pure form.
