No. But he is pretty much on record with the Police. This kid and his mother were trying to scam him out of money. Mez won't let Leno box him in. He'll validate his statements before he gets up there. Also, its a pretty good sign that the DA didn't put Leno up like he did with Coleman and the 3 comedians in a failed attempt to steal MJ & Mez's thunder.

Oh. OK then. Thanx u!!!

Of course it's beginning to seem obvious(at least to me) why the defence does not give information about who they will call next and what they will testify about in court. If they did, there would be all kinds of run-off-the-cliff speculation and negative press going around, which in this case, is not a good thing.

Former Jackson Employee Disputes Charge By TIM MOLLOY, Associated Press Writer
8 minutes ago



A former employee of Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch took the stand Monday to dispute the testimony of a maid who claimed the pop star inappropriately touched actor Macaulay Culkin and other boys.

Francine Contreras, who worked at the ranch from 1991 to 1993, said that while working with maid Adrian McManus she never heard her say anything bad about the singer.

The testimony began the first full week of the defense case, which has already featured two young men who testified last week that as children they slept with Jackson and were not molested. Their mothers said they trusted the singer enough to let their sons sleep in his bed.

Jackson arrived shortly before testimony resumed, escorted by an aide carrying an umbrella, and accompanied by his parents and brother Jermaine.

McManus testified for the prosecution that she saw once Jackson kiss Culkin on the cheek while his hand was on Culkin's bottom. She described similar scenes with other boys.

Culkin, a regular guest at Neverland in the early 1990s, was expected to be among defense witnesses, though there has been no indication when he might be called. The "Home Alone" star is now 24.

McManus' credibility was attacked by the defense, which showed that she and her husband were found to have defrauded three children of more than $30,500. In another lawsuit, she was assessed $30,000 for stealing a sketch of Elvis Presley by Jackson and selling it to a tabloid.

Contreras also said McManus took some toy squirt guns from Jackson's home.

But the prosecution sought to challenge Contreras' character by asking if she had been prosecuted for stealing at her subsequent job at a department store. Contreras said she was prosecuted for trespassing, not stealing.

Jackson, 46, is accused of fondling a 13-year-old former cancer patient, plying him with alcohol, and conspiring to detain him and his family so they would rebut a documentary in which he is seen holding hands with his accuser and saying he allows children to sleep in his bed, though he says the sleepovers were non-sexual.
 
I wonder what's going to happen today? lol, I'm clueless. But ALL I can is that Michael is looking mighty fine...he does look sad, I wish I can do something for him to cheer him up.

On Friday, defense attorneys presented the boys' mothers
Jurors looked uneasy as the two mothers described taking gifts and trips while their sons shared Jackson's bed, even if – as they insist – no abuse occurred, reports CBS News Correspondent Vince Gonzales.

Joy Robson and Marie Lisbeth Barnes praised Jackson from the witness stand Friday.

"I've known Michael for a long time. I've spent many hours talking to him about everything. I feel like he's a member of my family. I trust him. I trust him with my children," said Robson, whose 22-year-old son, Wade Robson, told jurors earlier that he was never molested by Jackson.

"He's a very special person," she added. "He's not the boy next door. He's Michael Jackson. He's very unique. He has a very pure personality. To know him is to love him and to trust him."

"You're asking the jurors to take a leap of faith; if they don't take that leap with you, Michael Jackson will be convicted," said attorney and courtroom observer Jim Moreht.
I don't care weather or not they agree with kids sleeping in his bed, that is not the issue at hand & they cannot convict him on that. These people went up there & said he did not molest them & that is what should matter. I just knew the media would try to twist even the positive testimony.

Could be his back. I know I wouldn't be smiling if I had to wake up at the ass crack of dawn and sit in those hard ass chairs everyday. God, I feel for him, if that's the case.

Of course, I'm only speculating.

It could be just tiredness too.
