Public doubts Michael Jackson's guilt
WASHINGTON -- Fewer Americans believe Michael Jackson is guilty of child
molestation even as California prosecutors ready charges against him, a new
poll shows. According to the Dec. 11-14 poll, 54 percent said the sexual abuse
allegations are either "definitely true" or "probably
true." That is down from 62 percent in a similar poll conducted Dec. 5-7,
USA Today reported Wednesday. The 8-point drop could be a result of revelations
that seem to bolster Jackson's case. A confidential memo leaked to
TheSmokingGun.com last week indicated Los Angeles child welfare officials
cleared Jackson of any misconduct during a February investigation involving the
same boy at the center of the current investigation. Other reports attacked the
credibility of the accuser and his family. Santa Barbara County officials
accuse Jackson of molesting a young cancer patient at his Neverland Valley
Ranch. Charges were expected to be filed on Thursday or Friday in Santa Maria,
Calif., Santa Barbara County District Attorney Thomas Sneddon said.
