he was mentally stunted

pretty sure he believed he was a child

i saw a really good thing that defended him, that was what convinced me

i cant remember what it was called though

He was a pedo.

He paid out millions in hush money though.

no

hush money is not proof of anything

By the way, you can't usually "prove" pedophilia. You just have kids claiming that it happened. There isn't much by way of external evidence, unfortunately.

that's not how it works Sarah

you pay hush money to stop people ruining your career, whether or not their claim is true

that's like saying hiring a lawyer means you are guilty

True. I didn't say it was proof.

I said he was a pedo, then I said he paid out hush money.

Never said one was proof of the other.

haha

if you make a claim, then state something else related to it, that usually means you are trying to use it as proof

practicing to become a politician?

No, I'm serious. I have little doubt that he was a pedophile. The hush money is only proof of accusation.

Not of guilt.

why do you think he was a pedo?

But his mannerisms and affections to children, the way he saw himself as a child, his attempts to garner their trust, etc. Combine that with credible accusations...

It kind of paints a picture.

a lot of people with the ability to settle out of court do it, because it's cheaper and less time consuming

As I said, in pedophilia cases, there is little more than the word of the kid(s) and a profile of the accused.

credible accusations?

like what?

Macaulay Culkin never had a bad word to say about MJ

even after his death

But you look at pics like this, wherein the kid later accused him: https://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2015/04/05/20/274ED67D00000578-3026714-image-m-9_1428261260063.jpg

James Safechuck?

seriously i wish i knew the name of that video, it went really in depth into every aspect of his life, and after watching it i could no longer think that he was actually a pedo

shoebill stork

I guess it doesn't matter now since MJ has passed, but I wouldn't leave a kid with him.

frick off with your stork

I also would not leave a kid with him, but not because of any belief that he was a pedo

The man could hardly look after himself

Then why? Cos he might hang the kid off a balcony?

Ah. Okay.

He had plenty of psychological issues, not least because he was denied any sort of real childhood
