There is certainly the scent of vendetta when you send 70 cops and a port-a-potty to search a place.

But here's another twist. As someone mentioned earlier, the guy is seriously in debt. He has a huge loan that if it goes unpaid, Sony gets the rights to the Beatle's songs that he owns.

So, getting paranoid here, if you were a highly paid Sony exec, wouldn't it make sense to ruin MJ's chance of making an money at all by seeing that the raid on his house happens the same day his new CD is released?

This doesn't change the fact that I think that there is something seriously WRONG AND DISGUSTING with the man and even more WRONG with the parents that allow him to have unchapperoned "sleep-overs".
