If you’ve followed Michael Jackson’s trials and tribulations and have made the informed decision that he is guilty, you’re entitled. I’m not trying to change your mind. If you’re just a hater who wants to make trouble, I don’t really care. The world would be boring if we didn’t have dynamic diversity, and someone to stir it up every now and then.
But if you’re on the fence, or you just don’t know, or you think he’s guilty of the allegations because someone told you so, I would like you consider 10 simple facts. My hope is they might enlighten at least one person.
1. Before the first allegations, Evan Chandler didn’t have custody of his son, Jordan Chandler. He owed his wife $68,000 in back child support.
2. When Jordan Chandler became friends with MJ, Evan Chandler encouraged their relationship, allowing MJ to spend the night at their house and in his children’s beds.
3. Evan Chandler invited MJ to build an addition onto Evan’s house so MJ could stay there. When he couldn’t get zoning permission, Evan Chandler asked MJ to buy him a new house.
4. Eventually, MJ stopped taking Evan Chandler’s calls, but stayed friends with Jordan. This is when Evan Chandler, with the help of “nastiest son of a *edited* I could find,” embarked on his plan to destroy Michael Jackson. Jordan’s mother, June Chandler, is the one who brought the extortion tape to MJ’s private investigator.

5. Evan Chandler hired a sketchy technician to administer the psychoactive drug Amytal to his son. It is NOT a truth serum; it is a drug that makes the patient highly suggestible.
Quote:
It’s a psychiatric medication that cannot be relied on to produce fact. People are very suggestible under it. People will say things under sodium Amytal that are blatantly untrue.
– Dr. Phillip Resnick, noted Cleveland psychiatrist
Quote:
I would never want to use a drug that tampers with a person’s unconscious unless there was no other drug available. And I would not use it without resuscitating equipment, in case of allergic reaction, and only with an M.D. anesthesiologist present.
– Dr. Kenneth Gottlieb, San Francisco psychiatrist
6. Instead of going to police with his allegations, Evan Chandler met Michael Jackson in a hotel room, where he took out an envelope and read Jordan Chandler’s drug-induced “stories.” Later that same night he demanded $20 million.
7. In their negotiations, MJ’s camp offered Evan Chandler, an aspiring screen writer, a $350,000 script project. Evan Chandler countered, demanding three script deals.
** HELLO? ** If you’re pursuing justice and charging someone with molesting your son, would you ask for script deals?
8. Despite their best efforts, police could not find any other boys to come forward. They approached 30+ boys with lies such as “we have naked pictures of you” when they didn’t. The boys all upheld by MJ’s integrity.
9. The members of Michael Jackson’s staff who claim to have witnessed inappropriate behavior, not one went to the police. They did, however, sell their “stories” to the media for tens and hundreds of thousands of dollars.
10. Michael Jackson did not pay Evan Chandler $20 million. His insurance company did, against his protests. They overruled because it served their best interest. http://whoismichael.com/insurance-pay-out.htm
