This didn't take place in a Batman comic. The American Legal system, flawed as it may be, isn't as corrupt as you might think. There are so many people involved with cases, especially high profile ones, that the whistle would surely have been blown by somebody in this instance if Michael Jackson was paying for an acquittal. The fact that a case with close to no evidence at all can be brought against someone like it was in this instance is the biggest flaw I see here.
Yeah, sleeping in the same bed with under age boys is stupid and weird. But he was a weird guy. That doesn't mean he did anything sexually with them. And knowing a bit about his background (particularly sharing his former religion) just makes me doubt he did anything. I've always felt that way, dead or not dead.
