🔥 Michael Jackson was investigated, tried, smeared, and hunted by the media for decades. If the story were true, the evidence would be overwhelming by now. Instead, the same accusations keep falling apart.
@Aleatorio101211 In 2026, you just have to be damn stupid.. to continue crossing his bullshit! And the worst thing in any case is that you just have to do some research to see that most families want to extort Michael. Well, I'm not here to educate idiots
Frankly I no longer have the patience to educate all his assholes finished in Pisa .. do your research and come back to talk later.

@BFMTV Alors vous rester en dehors de ça bande de merde déjà les médiats vous l’avez tuer et fini en 2009 ! Mais la stop. Il a était innocenté rester ou vous êtes c’est à dire nul part
4 of them were in the Netflix MJ doc:
• Prosecutor Ron Zonen
• His wife Louise Palanker (Arvizo family friend)
• Diane Dimond (obsessed with Michael since day one)
• Stacy Brown ( Jackson Family backstabber)
Journalistic integrity at its finest 😂
Sooo you’re telling me these three people are all featured in the new Michael Jackson Netflix documentary?
@LouisePalanker, married to prosecutor Ron Zonen and close friends with @didimond.
Funny how the same crowd with a clear agenda against him keeps showing up…
Too little, too late. When M. Bashir admitted ' LWMJ' was just a smear campaign ( 2009) :
" The truth is, that he was never convicted of any crime, i never saw any wrongdoing myself. And whilst his Lifestyle was a bit unorthodox, i dont believe it was criminal"
