A MOTHER'S LOVE

Amongst those delighted by the Jackson verdict, of course, was his mother, who otherwise would have had to endure regular visits to chokey and try baking a file in a cake. She's been trilling away about her feelings following the verdict. She's not gloating, of course, she just feels so sorry for the Arvizos:

Katherine Jackson did not know what she would say to Gavin Arvizo and his mother Janet if she met them, she said.

"I feel sorry for them, and from what I hear about their past I feel sorry for their future if they don't change their way," she told NBC's Today show.

We've all learned, and moved on, haven't we? Jacko's learned not have any kids in his bed... or has he?

She added that Jackson would change his friendships with children, no longer allowing them to share his bed.

"I'm sure he's not going to do that now because twice he's been accused of doing something he hadn't done," she said.

Yeah, share your bed with kids and get called a kiddie fiddler once, shame on you. Share your bed twice... how does that go again?

Ma Jackson seems to have come away with a different view of what the trial verdict means for Jackson:

Katherine Jackson told the US TV network she believes her son's name has now been cleared beyond doubt.

"He's been proven not to be a child molester and they know he's not. He's not a child molester, he's not a paedophile, and he doesn't give liquor to children. These kids were bad kids," she said.

Hmmm. He's not actually been proven not be anything - apart from not touching those kids at those time; even some of the jurors came away with the impression that there was something hella fishy going on. If the family Jackson think he's cleared his name, they might be in for a bit of a shock. Only a half-detached person would believe that.
