12 Year Old Boy Sues Michael Jackson For Not Molesting Him

The family of a 12 year old Southern California boy have launched a $28 million law suit against the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. Parents for the child in question contend there was a real and presumed threat that when they allowed their child to sleep in Michael Jackson's bed, he would be molested.

Martin Goldenstein, the lawyer representing the family claims Jackson's lack of sexual interest in the boy has caused them undue financial hardship.

"If, as presumed and understood, Michael Jackson acted normally and molested my client, there would be grounds for a multi-million dollar out of court settlement. In this case, Jackson is guilty of not acting himself, and has in effect broken a contract to molest", says Goldenstein.

Mark Geragos, the lawyer representing Jackson describes the law suit as frivolous, without merit and character assassination."These claims brought against my client will be proven false in a court of law. We have absolutely no plans whatsoever to settle this case out-of-court. I can tell you without any doubt whatsoever, Michael Jackson will fight this to the bitter end", said Geragos.

An anonymous source close to the Jackson defense team says they have an ace in the hole that will prove his innocence. The source indicates Jackson's defense will place the burden of proof squarely on the victim. "Everyone knows Jacko drugged his victims before any act of molestation, keeping that in mind, how could anyone claim Jackson didn't molest them?", said the anonymous source
