Well first of all Larry, this notion that he sleeps with boys was a concution by the prosecution. What he said very openly was that he allows families into his room.

Now, his room is the size of a duplex. It’s two levels. He’s had mothers sleep there, fathers sleep there, sisters sleep there, brothers sleep there. The prosecution conducted this little saying about sleeping with boys cause they thought it would turn off the jury, and they failed.

But yes, we did have to explain who Michael Jackson was to the story. That he was a very creative spirit, a very gentle soul, a brilliant musician, a brilliant choreographer, and a very sensitive person who’s very concerned about the world and the problems in the world. And he has a very childlike spirit and essence to him, and he attracts children all over the world. We did have to explain who he was, but this is a country which prides itself on diversity, on the freedom to be who you are, and we never diverted our attention from who Michael was.
We never tried to make him look anything but himself, he never tried to dress differently for the courtroom, our whole intention was to show who Michael is and be proud of it and embrace it.

Little Michael fan outside of Motown’s Hitsville.


It was seeing the children like this that made the first few months of Michael’s passing a little easier to deal with.  Seeing the children of the world enjoying the magic of Michael made you realize he isn’t lost at all, he lives on all around us.
After all he went through in life, after all of the horrible things said about him - the children who he loved and adored were still in wonderment of the magic of this one little boy from Gary… and so it continues.

You are the book that I read each day, you are the song that I sing.
