    Michael Jackson didn’t go to jail, but it effectively ended his career. Cosby got destroyed. R Kelly eventually ended up in jail.

    Also remember the positive and negative of jury trials is that it takes one idiot in the 12.

      It’s so weird when y’all say cancel culture is just being punished for crimes you commit. “He raped someone and went to jail for it that’s cancel culture.” That’s a fucking weird statement.

      Also I don’t know why you think Michael Jackson’s career had been ended. He was scheduled to start a new tour the next month after his death.

      Interesting… So if you want to do a sexual abuse successfully it seems like you should try being white. I never expected this.
