Read the title.

So don't blame Michael Jackson for walking free. Hell, I'm not even a fan of the guy(?) he's just a freakish freak.

But it would surprise you how many filthy rich people literally walk away with murder. Or they get, like three or four years for MURDER. Like the murderer of Dominique Dunne, daughter of Dominic Dunne.

Imdb Bio

"John Thomas Sweeney, Dunne's killer, was 26 years old at the time. After being sentenced to 6 years in prison for assault and unintentional manslaughter, he was freed after only two and a half years."

"Unintentional manslaughter," hah! He dragged her outside and strangled her.

Why should people care so much about celebrities? They're just regular people who have much more than they need (and in some cases, deserve). I couldn't care less whether Michael Jackson was found guilty or not, I just thought he didn't deserve all the attention he was getting.

I am thankful that they didn't broadcast the trial on network TV like they did with the OJ Simpson case. Speaking of OJ, he got off for two reasons: he was black and his lawyers accused the prosecution of racism, and he was a celebrity.

Ofcourse rich people get away with murders since they can afford good lawyers

In America, MONEY = FREEDOM

Gives a whole new meaning to "Land of the Free," doesn't it?

Speaking of that Queen Of True Evil, Martha Stewart: Safe Now
