First I want to make it clear I'm not a M.J.fan at all and I belive most likely he did this, but as to the parent being quilty of something for letting their child stay with him, I have a different view.

As easy as it is to say they where bad parents to let their child stay with him, I have to look at it this way. I have a friend, years ago that was accused of the same thing.......all charges where droped though. Their are people that to this day don't trust him still and I understand why. But I've known him for years and trust him 100% so just maybe these parents also trusted M.J. and honestly belived thier child was safe. (don't flame me for this guys, I just like looking at all angles)

For what ever reason they let their child stay with him, I can't say they are bad parents, maybe they trusted him, maybe they just wanted help so bad for their childs cancer that they where willing to do anything to get him help. Desperate parents will do almost anything for thier child if they belive it can help and being that desperate sometimes you lose site of things. They will have to live with thier choice for the rest of their lives and that is enough punishment.

Who I'm anger with is the parents of the child 10 years ago, if it wasn't for their gread maybe M. Jackson whould have been stoped 10 years ago and all these other children would never have been hurt by him. How any parent can take money over getting justice for thier child and all furture children, I will never understand. If ever my child was hurt there is no amount of money that could buy me off. I'd want who ever hurt them to be locked behind bars for a long time. I could never live with myself knowing that I let a sicko go free to harm other again. How they can, angers me.
