I haven't really been following this, although it is mildly entertaining at Michael's expense.

These are covered in counts 7-10. But I can just hear it now: "Jesus Juice all around, kids. We're celebrating!" I kid, of course.

No there wasn't. And no he didn't. A seperate civil suit was filed on the same grounds in 1993 by a different accuser. Michael settled out of court for an undisclosed amount (believed to be about $25 million). Mr. Jackson's attorney pointed out that this particular accuser (would calling him the flavour of the week be appropriate?) has until the age of 18 "before the clock starts ticking on a civil suit." So I'm inclined to think it's a distinct possibility. It all depends on if that family can take even more shame I'd say.
