Michael Jackson Found Not Guilty on All Counts

Email this article Print this article Send us a tip

It's over. Michael Jackson was found not guilty on all 10 counts in his child molestation case. After deliberating for close to 32 hours, the jury, which ranged in age from 20-79 and included no African-American members, found Jackson not guilty of charges including conspiracy, child molestation, attempted molestation and administering an intoxicating agent to a minor. Though cameras were not allowed inside the courtroom, cameras were able to capture Jackson and his family - including sisters Janet and LaToya, brothers Tito and Marlon, and father Joe - entering the courtroom. A visibly shaken Jackson wore a simple black suit and tie as he entered the courthouse. The verdict brings and end a saga that began in February 2003 with the airing of British journalist Martin Bashir's documentary, "Living With Michael Jackson."
