Freakshow - Michael Jackson edition

Michael Jackson is in the news again. He seems to be moving out of Neverland. To the Arab nation of Bahrain! From Reuters:
Michael Jackson: Nevermore in Neverland?
Michael Jackson has been summoned for jury duty in California but won't be serving because he no longer considers Neverland Valley Ranch his home, court officials said on Thursday.

It was not immediately clear where the pop star would be hanging his famous black hat, although he has been in Bahrain for much of the past few months.

Jackson, who spent four months of this year in a central California courtroom before winning an acquittal on child sex abuse charges, was randomly called for jury duty as a resident of Santa Barbara County, court spokesman Gary Blair said.

But Blair said Jackson attorney Robert Sanger called court officials to notify them that the 47-year-old entertainer would not be able to serve because he would no longer be living at Neverland full time.

"Our jury services supervisor spoke with (Sanger) a couple of days ago and he notified her that Mr. Jackson was in Bahrain and that he would be changing his permanent address to somewhere other than the ranch," Blair said.
He might just fit in well there. After all, one of Mohammed's wives was nine when he married her. Posted by DaveH at October 20, 2005 9:34 PM | TrackBack
