Faster than you can say "It's a beautiful thing to share your bed" the Michael Jackson trial has a jury selected - weeks before anyone thought it was possible.
According to the report at msnbc.com the jury contains four men and eight women, seven of them are white, four Hispanic and one Asian. No blacks, which means Jackson will have a trial by his peers -- middle-aged white women.
Jackson has a few things going in his favor: the word is that the young 15-year-old accuser has been a horrible witness in the mock trial questioning done by the prosecution side (which means he might do the same and fall apart on the witness stand), plus the fact that the teen accuser once accused his own mother of abuse to the police.
And going against Jackson is that most of the jurors are parents themselves and immediately know its damn weird for a 45-year-old man to sleep with little boys. When a single rich guy trolls for little pre-teen dudes -- and not babes -- it's time to wonder.
, At least now if Jackson is convicted and has to go to prison (and I'm NOT saying he's guilty or anything), he won't have to worry about being allowed to wear his nose-tip prothesis to cover up that third nostril. His last surgery by Dr. Werner Mang, a German Plastic surgeon, took some cartilage out of his ear to give his beak a new tip and it looks pretty good. But he should leave the Mary Poppins umbrella at home.
