do i think he had some very weird ideas about what was normal behaviour around children? absolutely. do i think part of that stemmed from his own fucked up childhood? hell yes. do i think he was trying to live a new youth well past the age where people should have been? obviously. do i think that actually extended to child rape? nah

(Anonymous) 2021-11-06 01:49 am (UTC)(link)I don't see why. And I think this clearly isn't something we can take as a reasonable general standard, for many reasons. In particular, one important distinction is that courts are attempting to prove people guilty of particular legal crimes under particular legal constructs of proof and guilt. Our moral reasoning doesn't have to follow the same standards of legality or responsibility.

It's one thing to disagree with a verdict if it's a provable fact that the accused did the thing they're accused of but got the not guilty verdict because of unjust laws, legal loopholes, or biased jurors. It's another to decide that actually you, an unrelated party who read about it in the papers/on the Internet are more qualified to decide if something happened or not than the people who have access to all the existing evidence.
It's like the people who are being horrible to Madeleine Mccann's parents because they've decided they know what really happened better than the people actually investigating the case. The court of public

I don't know if MJ was a pedophile, but since he was never proven to have done sexual thing to children, I choose not to act like he was.
