Now someone should sue the courts for a frivolous prosecution.
All that's needed is to prove the prosecution acted with reckless disregard and actual malice towards Jackson, or that they knowingly suppressed evidence that would exonerate Jackson and went to trial anyway.
A bungled case by the prosecution doesn't even come close.When all else fails, blame brown people. | Hire a teen, while they still know it all. | Trump-Palin 2016. "You're fired." "I quit."

Yes, with those accusors there was plenty of room for reasonable doubt.
We'll see how they do in the civil suit.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

A question to those who understand the American legal system.
Jackson was found innocent, so the charges were made up. Therefore, the accusers gave false testimony. AFAIK, giving false testimony in court is a crime. Is there now going to be a case automatically against Jackson's accusers?Solver, WePlayCiv Co-Administrator

No, they won't be charged. There testimony could have been true. Just the jury decided there was doubt.It's almost as if all his overconfident, absolutist assertions were spoonfed to him by a trusted website or subreddit. Sheeple

"Not guilty" does not mean "innocent" - it means that the prosecution didn't meet the standard of proof to convict.
There's no connection to giving false testimony - the jury not believing the testimony as credible doesn't mean it's false, it just means the jury didn't believe it.When all else fails, blame brown people. | Hire a teen, while they still know it all. | Trump-Palin 2016. "You're fired." "I quit."

well simply stated it will now be easier to say that it is more likely then not that this happened for the civil suit. Which is why i believe the mother went as far AS she could in the crimminal trial. I dont think he did any of the things they accused him of but since he is a freak people want to lend in to the fact he didWhen you find yourself arguing with an idiot, you might want to rethink who the idiot really is.

What about "the prosecution acted to promote themselves and make themselves celebrities". That's what I had in mind.

As I remember, juries consist of of the accused's "peers"...
Who exactly are Jackson's peers?
I haven't held the US justice system in particularly high regard after I heard that one DA left a murder trial to her subordinates, to prosecute in a shoplifting trial... for Winona Ryder. ()
