Entertainment US Jackson - Charges expected later against pop superstar

SOUNDBITE: (English) Diane Dimond, Court TV reporter: "I think that as far as the gritty details, I think the titillation factor will be kept down in the papers that we see filed today. Lewd and lascivious acts, multiple acts, we already know that, the District Attorney has said that. But I might also say to look for charges of endangering the welfare of a child, contributing to the delinquency of a minor. As you indicate, there are these allegations that Michael Jackson himself gave this 12 year old cancer patient both alcohol and sleeping pills while they were having this relationship."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Diane Dimond, Court TV reporter "Well I know the prosecution wants him to come forward and testify - will he do that? I think it is doubtful. They could force him, they could subpoena him, but how would that look for the prosecution having a reluctant victim on the stand and someone who took multi-millions of dollars from Michal Jackson. I can imagine that Mark Geragos would jump all over that young man." APTN File - Los Angeles 9. Close-up Michael Jackson getting out of car 10. Various views of Santa Barbara County Sheriff's website announcing news conference Thursday and where charges will be published STORYLINE: Prosecutors in Los Angeles say they will file criminal charges against pop star Michael Jackson on Thursday. Sources familiar with the case also said that the District Attorney Tom Sneddon had agreed to delay the arraignment a week to January 16 and return Jackson's passport to allow him to travel overseas. Jackson, who has declared his innocence, is free on three (m) million US dollars bail. The charges pending against Jackson are expected to detail for the first time allegations involving a boy with cancer, now 14, who slept over at Neverland several times. The boy appeared with Jackson in a British documentary that aired on American television in February. At a news conference last month, Sneddon appeared jovial, made wisecracks and appeared to revel in the attention surrounding the case. Soon afterwards someone leaked an official memo showing that Jackson was cleared by Los Angeles County child welfare investigators last February of molestation claims involving the same boy. Sneddon said he knew about the memo but didn't consider it important to his case. This week, the prosecutor's office brought in a Hollywood public relations firm to handle media enquiries. The case has been in the headlines ever since a battalion of sheriff's deputies swooped down on Jackson's 2,600-acre (1,040-hectare) estate with search warrants and spent hours carrying off boxes of evidence. News reports immediately recalled a 1993 case against Jackson involving another boy. That case collapsed when the boy received a reported settlement of 15 (m) million to 20 (m) million US dollars and refused to testify against Jackson. Court TV reporter Diane Dimond says although the prosecutors would like to have the second boy testify, it would be difficult seeing as he had reached an out of court settlement. Jackson is expected to return to the Neverland Ranch this weekend, the first time in over a month.

Entertainment US Jackson - Jury resumes deliberation for seventh day, fans continue to mass

SOUNDBITE: (English) Diane Dimond, Court TV Correspondent: "It takes a jury time to get to know their rhythm. They have been together for 14 weeks, but they weren't allowed to talk about any of this. So to me, after a 14 week trial, this is not an overly long deliberation. Having said that, I'll tell you, only the Robert Blake case in recent memory, has a jury gone this long and actually acquitted, so I would think the state's probably feeling pretty good right now. However, if it goes on too long, the state's going to get worried about a hung jury." 8. Shots of fans and protestors outside courthouse 9. SOUNDBITE: (English) Stacy Philliips, Jackson Fan: "I hope the jury comes in today, because I would really love to be here for it, but I just want the jury to take their time and really give a fair trial here." 10. SOUNDBITE: (Swedish) Janet Manbrink, Jackson fan from Sweden: "Michael, I'm sorry we haven't learned anything in two-thousand years." 11. Various shots of Jackson protesters outside courthouse STORYLINE: Jurors in Michael Jackson's child molestation trial resumed deliberations Monday, their seventh day of talks on the 10-count indictment against the pop star. The jurors had already spent more than 28 hours behind closed doors since getting the case on June 3. The panel has deliberated on weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. (1530 GMT to 2130 GMT), with several brief breaks daily and two shortened days. Following a news report late last week that jurors have asked several questions and requested to have portions of testimony by Jackson's accuser read back, a media attorney asked the judge Monday to release records and to allow access to any future proceedings. The news report by CNN was attributed to unidentified sources. It indicated there have been at least three meetings between attorneys and the judge. Early in deliberations there was one announcement by the trial media pool coordinator that there had been a jury question, but there was no word on what the question was or its resolution. A media protest filed at that time will not be heard until Thursday. Court-TV reporter Diane Dimond (DI-mond) said in her estimation, seven days is not an "overly long deliberation, " but added that, if recent history is any indication, the prosecution is probably "feeling pretty good right now." A dozen or so fans returned to the courthouse, carrying signs and chanting "Jackson is innocent." They were joined by a handful of Jackson opponents, as well. The 46-year-old popstar is charged with molesting a 13-year-old boy in 2003, giving him alcohol and conspiring to hold the young cancer survivor and his family against their will to get them to rebut a damaging television documentary about the pop star.

SOUNDBITE (English): Juror number 1: "I can't really point to any one specific item right now, I mean, there were tons of evidence to consider, to pick one item out is really difficult. I would just say that we considered all of the evidence and of course, since it was a criminal trial, it had to be beyond a reasonable doubt and in looking at all of the evidence and not just one specific item, that's the conclusion we arrived at.

Close-up of Santa Maria Times headline "Michael Jackson Not Guilty" JACKSON REACTIONS After months of deliberation and courtroom drama, people in the US and the all over the world were transfixed on Monday as the jury announced the verdict in the Michael Jackson case. Jackson, looking drawn, walked out of court minutes later to shrieks from fans, waved weakly and blew a kiss before being driven home to his Neverland ranch, as applauding fans chased after his convoy as it disappeared behind the bunting-decorated gates. Jackson went to bed "trying to get back his strength," his father, Joe, said later as he greeted and thanked fans for their support. Joe also lashed out at media analysts Nancy Grace and Diane Dimond saying they "were not good to us at all." At a Los Angeles record store, some customers stood angrily in disbelief while others cheered and clapped. And from New York's Time Square, people watched from the large screen as the verdict of "not guilty" was read out for each of the ten counts brought against the 46 year-old pop star. Michael Jackson was found not guilty on all 10 counts by a Santa Maria Jury of eight women and four men. Jackson was accused of molesting a 13 year-old cancer survivor at his Neverland ranch, vindicating the pop star who insisted he was the victim of mother-and-son fraudsters and a prosecutor with a vendetta.

Wide shot of fans gathered outside Neverland ranch STORYLINE: Michael Jackson was optimistic Tuesday as he awaited a decision by the jury in his child molestation and conspiracy case, Reverend Jesse Jackson said. The pop star's friend spoke to reporters gathered outside the courthouse in Santa Maria, California. Inside, the jury of eight women and four men completed a second full day of deliberation without announcing a verdict on the 10-count indictment against the singer. A verdict in the Jackson case will end not only the hugely publicised trial but also the noisy and colourful gatherings of fans who stand outside court to shout their support for the pop star. They come from both near and far. They dance to Michael Jackson's songs, write their own lyrics proclaiming his innocence, date each other, even lose their jobs for the cause. It has been a four-and-a-half-month-long gathering. One woman led a line of about 12 children dressed in black trousers, white shirts and black ties who performed a song that included the line, "We came to support Michael Jackson." Another opened a box of white doves as fans chanted "Innocent" and set the birds free. She hoped to do it again when the verdicts come. The 46 year-old singer is charged with molesting a 13 year-old boy in 2003, giving the boy alcohol and conspiring to hold his family captive. It is alleged he held them captive to get them to rebut a documentary in which Jackson appeared with the boy and said he let children into his bed but for non-sexual reasons.
