看得欲哭无泪，05年的官司彻底摧毁了Michael对所有人，包括孩子的信任，让他离开了Neverland，满世界的寻找一个能让内心安定的地方，直到……
不敢想象他是怎样经历这一切的……
这个时刻，最难过的还是他的家人吧
我们也少一点对他家人的猜测和指责吧，我相信，他们都是爱Michael的！
Tito Didn`t Doubt MJ`s Innocence "For One Single Moment"
(16-7-2009) In an interview to the British Mirror, Michael`s brother Tito talked about the very complicated time during the child molestation trial and how much the allegations affected Michael:
For Tito, the not guilty verdicts came as no surprise. Asked if he ever doubted Michael`s innocence, he replied:
“Not one time, not for one single moment. I knew exactly what was going on, what people were playing at, planning.
A few of the brothers knew what was happening. It’s a wicked world out there.
The whole thing was totally motivated by greed and money.”
Child abuse allegations first surfaced in the early 90s when Jordan Chandler claimed Michael Jackson sexually assaulted him. Rather than face a potentially embarrassing courtroom showdown that would have been highly featured in the press worldwide, Michael decided to pay off his accusers.
“I wished Michael never did it. But when you are in this business sometimes you don’t think for yourself. You have advisers and lawyers – all these people thinking for you and telling you why you should do this and that. They felt at the time the easiest thing for him to do was to give them money and make them go away – don’t drag yourself through a case.
I felt he should have fought it, but Michael is a private person and he did not want the media in his life and all these other things he would have probably had to go through.
He was advised just to give them what they want and get rid of them. I believe it was Johnny Cochrane, OJ Simpson’s lawyer, who told him to do that.”
The Jackson family feared the pay-off could tempt more accusers to crawl out of the woodwork. So when, in 2003, Gavin Arvizo went to police and said he had been sexually abused, Tito was not surprised. However, his belief in his brother did never waver.
“Michael didn’t have to say anything. He just walked up to me and looked at me.
I knew my brother, I could look in his eyes and see what he was thinking.
He said to me, ‘TT, I never did all these terrible things they are saying I did. I could never hurt a child’. He said this in the middle of the trial – that’s the one and only time he spoke to me about it. It was a couple of weeks before the closing.
I knew all along he didn’t do it, and he knew we knew it. It didn’t even need saying. People make up things.”
Tito also recalled how mentally strong Michael was throughout the gruelling 3 month hearing in 2005.
“I don’t think he was 100% during the trial because it was the strangest thing to go through. Michael didn’t know if the jurors were believing the stories that were being said in court. I remember at the time thinking, ‘Gosh, he is so strong. I could not go through this’.
Physically, I was always much stronger than Michael, but mentally he had to be so strong to go through that.“
When it was announced that the jury had reached a verdict, the whole family was at Michael`s Neverland Valley Ranch.
“We rushed down to the courthouse. I could tell Michael was a little bothered, a little nervous – that was only to be expected.
But he was more concerned about his children than himself. In the car, he told my mother, ‘If this doesn’t go right, take care of my kids. Make sure my kids are fine’.
It was a natural thing to say. He had to face up to the possibility that he was going to jail but he never spoke to me about his fears. I think he believed in the system, he wanted to believe in the system. He wanted it to work for him. It may have been on his mind but he was never terrified he was going to prison because as the case went on you could see that there was no validity in the allegations.”
Tito described the moment the verdicts were announced as the “worst time” of his life.
“As they read them out, it got to five not guilties – they just kept coming and coming. From the first not guilty, right through until the last, it was the most frightening thing.
The verdicts alone should tell the world that something was not right about the case. As Al Sharpton said, there was nothing strange about Michael. The only strange thing was what he had to go through.
After the verdict, we went back to Neverland. Michael thanked me so much for supporting him. He told me he loved me so much and said he was especially proud because I never wanted anything from him but love. He said to me, ‘TT, I have a gift for you’. I said, ‘Michael, you don’t have to give me a gift’. But he said, ‘No, I really want to give you something because you never ask for anything. He was really persistent and kept saying, ‘Come here, come here, come here’. He walked me over to his garage and he had two Bentleys and he said, ‘Pick the one you want’.
That’s the kind of guy he was. I chose the one that he had signed inside the car. It’s beautiful. I’ve still got it.”
Despite his upbeat mood following the not guilty verdicts, Tito said the trial ruined Michael’s life.
“Michael was never the same again. It changed him a lot. He became far less trusting of people, even children, because they had hurt him. From being so relaxed around them he became a lot more cautious. In some ways, the trial ruined his life. He left Neverland and went on this search to find a comfortable place – somewhere he could relax and get over everything. Sadly, I don’t think he ever did find that place. He was searching right up until he died.”
前面在说Tito对于Michael被宣判无罪一点也不惊讶，因为他知道弟弟什么都没做，整个事情完全是出于贪婪和金钱。Tito希望Michael从未付给那些人钱来摆平93年的官司，但是Michael是身不由己的，周围有顾问、有律师来告诉他该干什么。当时他们觉得这是最简单的办法。
Jackson家族担心这样会引来更多试图敲诈的人。结果也正是如此，所以2003年Garvin起诉的时候Tito没有吃惊，但是他对Michael的信念从未改变。
“Michael什么都不需要说，他只是走到我面前看着我。我了解我的弟弟，看他的眼睛我就知道他在想什么。 在审讯途中他对我说‘TT,我从没做过他们说的那种可怕的事。我永远不会伤害孩子’——这是他唯一一次向我提起这件事。那是在结案前几周。
我从来都知道他没做过，他也知道我们知道（他是清白的）。毫无疑问，有人在捏造事实。”
Tito 还回忆当时历时3个月的听证过程中Michael是多么坚强。
“Michael不知道法院能不能相信他的话，有一点不安，有一点紧张。但是他更关心的是他的孩子们。在车里，他告诉妈妈‘如果有什么万一，照顾好我的孩子，保证他们不会有事。’可以说他也曾面对着入狱的可能性，但他从未告诉过我他的恐惧。我想他相信法律体系，他愿意去相信。也许他也想到过可能入狱但是他没有害怕，因为众所周知那个指控完全站不住脚。”
Tito 说宣判的时候是他一生中最坏的时刻。
“宣读审判结果的时候，一共要宣判5条无罪，他们就一条一条读下去。从第一条一直到第五条，实在是最让人心惊胆战的事情。
单单是审判结果就能够告诉全世界这个案件很有问题。就像Al Sharpton所说，Michael一点也不奇怪，唯一奇怪的是他所要经历的事！
审判之后，我们回到了Neverland。Michael感谢我对他的支持。他告诉我他很爱我，而且他很自豪因为我从未向他要求过任何东西，除了爱。他对我说‘TT,有个礼物要给你’我告诉他不需要给我礼物，但他非常坚持‘我真的很想给你个礼物，因为你从来不向我索取任何东西。’他带我去了他的车库，里面有两辆宾利‘挑个喜欢的。’
他就是那种人。我选了里面有他签名的那辆，太漂亮了，我现在还开着。”
尽管被判无罪后Michael情绪很乐观，但是Tito说，那场审判摧毁了Michael的人生。
“Michael从此再也不一样了。那件事很大程度上改变了他。他对别人的信任远不及从前了，甚至是孩子，因为孩子也伤害过他。从之前的在孩子周围很放松到大为谨慎。 在某些方面，审判毁了他的生活。他离开了Neverland去寻找一个稍微舒服点的地方—— 一个能够让他放松，忘掉一切的地方。可悲的是，我认为他再也没找到那样的地方。他一直在寻找，直到离开人世！” |
