ALL MICHAEL JACKSON. com LATEST NEWS Jan 31st MICHAEL JACKSON RELEASES VIDEO STATEMENT Michael Jackson today released a pre-prepared video of a speech approved by Judge Rodney Melville. The statement comes in response to leaked documents concerning grand jury transcripts a couple of weeks ago. Below is Michael's entire speech: "In the last few weeks, a large amount of ugly, malicious information has been released into the media about me. Apparently, this information was leaked through transcripts in a grand jury proceeding where neither my lawyers nor I ever appeared. The information is disgusting and false. "Years ago, I allowed a family to visit and spend some time at Neverland. Neverland is my home. I allowed this family into my home because they told me their son was ill with cancer and needed my help. "Through the years, I have helped thousands of children who were ill or in distress. "These events have caused a nightmare for my family, my children and me. I never intend to place myself in so vulnerable a position ever again. "I love my community and I have great faith in our justice system. Please keep an open mind and let me have my day in court. I deserve a fair trial like every other American citizen. I will be acquitted and vindicated when the truth is told. Thank you." -- Michael Jackson |
