Accused != guilty.
For the record: I think MJ never meant to hurt any kids. I think he never did anything with them out of malice, or out of sexual deviancy. I think he truly loved kids the way he said he did, and because his own maturity level was stunted by being abused and then by being the most famous person ever, he really did just relate to kids "on their level" and that perhaps would explain his interactions with them.
That said, I believe that within the boundaries of the law, he was a pedophile. Good intentions and stunted maturity do not excuse that he was an adult and mentally capable of knowing better, and yet he got naked w/ kids. I'm just not going to hold it against him the way I do towards actual predatory molesters.
