Yet another example of Wacko Jacko.
I'm mad about this, but can't really put it into words. Perhaps this exerpt will help me focus:
Michael Jackson (news) wants "a celebrity exception to the First Amendment" which will keep much of his child molestation case secret, a media lawyer argued in a motion filed Tuesday.
Theodore Boutrous Jr., answering a defense motion defending secrecy and deriding press coverage, accused Jackson's lawyers of engaging in a "misguided tirade" against the press while displaying "insensitivity to basic First Amendment values."
Boutrous challenged Jackson's claim that he wants the same rights as other defendants.
"What he is really seeking is a blanket celebrity exception to the First Amendment that would turn the notion of public access upside down," said Boutrous, who represents a coalition of news organizations including The Associated Press.
Oh yeah. That's right. #1- don't do the crime, if you can't do the time. #2- all people are created equal in the sight of the law, supposedly. Do you really think that if I were a child molester, that I would be able to suppress the details of my charges from the media? No. And I shouldn't be able to, because no one else can.
Enough on that.
