Jackson's Family Says He's Innocent
NEW YORK - Michael Jackson 's parents say he's innocent of the child molestation allegations against him, and have offered to adopt his children if they're taken away from him.
"Some people are trying to accuse him of being a pedophile, and that is not true," Katherine Jackson said in an interview airing at 10 p.m. EST Friday on ABC's "20/20."
"You know he was strong, he said, 'Mother, don't worry, it's not the truth,'" Mrs. Jackson said. "But I told him you don't know these wicked people, the people are just mean and wicked."
"Knowing Michael, as a father, I know that he doesn't do things like that," Joe Jackson added. "His mother knows it, too."
The pop singer was booked Nov. 20 on suspicion of molesting a boy at his Neverland Ranch outside Santa Barbara, Calif. He has denied the allegations and was released on $3 million bail. He has not been charged.
In the interview, which is part of a documentary airing Monday night in the United Kingdom on ITV, Jackson's parents said they hoped authorities wouldn't take the singer's three children away from him.
When asked whether they would try to adopt the two boys and a girl if that happens, his mother answered, "Oh yes. Oh yes."
Joe Jackson added, "Well ... they're my grandkids. I have to."

Yeah, of course the family backs him. He probably will get away with it. But, as his latest record is stiffing fairly badly (at least, bad enough to not actually MAKE any money) it could very well be the last record he makes. Of course, he could always tour Sth Korea, Uruaguay, Sth Africa, Phillipines. Funny how he doesnt tour U.S. though. And hasnt done for quite some time. My fingers are crossed he necks himself in his shrine to Macauley Culkin on Christmas Eve. I drunkenly put $10.00 on it with a mate. |

Be careful of his new record. They say there's subliminal hypnotic messages on it. |
