I watched what was videotaped of MJ’s trial. Watched every video/documentary for and against him. Listened to people who loved him and people who did not support him. After all of that, i see him as an innocent man. Won’t convince me otherwise. Least important, i was born same year he was. Grew up w/ his music in my ear. I loved his music and his great talent. I want to share one other experience i had. Just a few nights ago i fell asleep w/ tv on. An MJ video must have come on while i was dreaming. In my dream, my heart was breaking. I woke up and saw a video still on (no music playing) about MJ. I felt such overwhelming sadness, trying to shake myself out of it. I realized there was probably one of his many beautiful songs playing and thats why my heart was breaking. I can’t remember though which song it was. Rest in Peace Michael and thank you for the music. ❤️❤️❤️

[@janealace]

This is really good. Thank you. Michael was loved by so many. Genius. But vulnerable. Kind and gentle. Empathetic. I love Michael.

[@kikka7391]

Thanks God there were and are still people believing Michael s innocence ! But what a terrible time he had to go through! Michael Jackson was too good and too honest! He just was too trustful and seeing only good in people.

Why he gave the boys Jesus juice 🥤 and dirty magazines ❓🤔🧐

I never got a chance to meet you in person, and we were only 4 years apart in age, I grew up with you and your brothers in Indiana as you see, I was born there too 🤰🤱🧑‍🍼When my dad got transferred to Ft. Bliss Texas, we left Indiana and I have never had a chance to go back home , and besides they are all dead and gone by now 🕊️ ⚰️🪦⚱️🏺🕊️ Im going to be 70 this year and I still listen to your music 🎶🎵🎶 and it takes me back home sometimes to let my memories unfold and get in touch with my inner childhood and see the few times I was truly happy ❤ Thank you my homestate bro, I love you ❤

[@lavernsutherland6833]

I've not watched this yet, however, I just wanted to say that, Michael was a gentleman, I never knew him personally, I'm only a fan, but he was a good person, and I miss him a lot 🌸

[@janetpatterson7915]

I agree. Bless his heart. I miss him too. I was a huge fan in the early 80s. It’s just so sad that he didn’t want to grow up or except the way he looked. I think that is what killed all of his relationships and in the end it’s what killed him.💔

[@Wowwwzaaa]

If you dont know him personally then you don’t know him!

[@lavernsutherland6833]

[@lavernsutherland6833]

​@@janetpatterson7915I think he was battling with a lot of things, internally, Michael Jackson reached a level of fame never seen or achieved before, the height of fame that he had was quiet literally insane, to be that incredibly famous on that scale from childhood until adulthood was and still is unprecedented. No one, could ever understand what it would have been like, to have that kind of fame, to have that kind of star power, to have that kind of lifestyle, you also have to understand and consider the type of era that he was in and how that would be a factor to why I don't think, fame like that will ever be seen or achieved again, I strongly doubt it happening again. I cry often, thinking about what happened to him, he was tortured, tormented, used and abused and taken advantaged of, he had such a unique soul, genuine, kind, sincere, a giving nature, well mannered, standing up for injustices, helping other people, and giving back, being a good person and doing good things, he was built to be that way, he did so many good things, in the buisness that he was in, there's no doubt that he was one of the good guys, there's a lot of dark things going on, he was up against so much, jealousy, envy, greed, hate, for some reason some individuals can't cope when someone becomes successful, Michael worked so incredibly hard for his success, but it's human nature for some individuals to tear into others, to try and drag other people down, generally speaking, some will even go far enough to try and destroy other people completely, especially when someone climbs up high on the success ladder, and boy, did Michael climb up high, I think foul play was involved with his departure, and it's so deeply sad, heartbreaking, no one deserves that to happen to them, no one, I wish that more people were kind, I wish people celebrated other people more for when other people are happy and successful, I wish more people were more supportive of other people, I wish that more people were honest and truthful, and one thing I'll always respect Michael for, is that he never ever once retaliated, in a nasty way, I can relate to him on that, when someone hurts you, you don't go down to their level and hurt them back, he always remained dignified, he was always humble, he was a man with class, he had so much wealth and he gave so much of it away, he easily could have isolated himself away from everyone, and keep all that fortune to himself, his final words that says it all, what was in his heart and what kind of man he was, honestly, what Michael went through, he didn't deserve that, it makes me cry, at least now he can be free from those who hate him, for all who love him, we are the ones who know, what kind of man he was and he'll always be remembered and adored for what he achieved, for what he accomplished, for all of the good things that he did, for Michael just being Michael, he came, and he made his mark, his legacy is his legacy and he'll always have that 🌸

I feel so sad for Michael Jackson. It’s too bad that people had to misunderstand him and be so cruel and mean. My mom had that disease, and she was white to begin with, but she got whiter and whiter.. He had such a big heart he was such a sweetheart..❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@susielee8101]

The tragedy of Michael Jackson teaches us we should love people while they are still alive. The world is still mourning for this extraordinary human being with huge talent and a soft and generous heart but it’s a bit too late to cry now that he is gone. Not too many of us were by his side when he needed a friend. He has done so much charity for our planet but all he got was judgement and misunderstanding. Poor Michael. You are with our creator now and all your sufferings are no more.

[@hokees58]

He was in touch with the divine but he was human. Just thinking about 45 years of fame at his pace exhausts me. RIP MJ. You gave us your best and God took back HIS best.

Sadly a men took his life away. Un attempted..no supervisor of medicine. Or clinical check up. Plus yes as explained the traumas of his childhood. Over doctor Murray an his father two increases night mare

[@omaidareyes2761]

Listen as a child abused by my father with a belt and by my mother a whipping with she would take the wire off the off the back of the TV And beat me with the wire so I know what he felt from his father whipping him . Is not a fun thing especially wit a tv wire it really hurts and burns. Is not fun she used to lock me in the closet and put a chair agaist the door. So I couldn't get out. So I understand his 👑🌏🌏🌏🙌🏾🙏🏽❤❤❤❤❤😥
