It all comes back to one thing
Jurors in the Michael Jackson child abuse trial will have to decide whether his teenage accuser is a credible witness after viewing the boy’s videotaped testimony.
With evidence that included phone records and adult magazines and testimony from more than 130 witnesses including Macaulay Culkin, Chris Tucker and Jay Leno, the case may come down to whether jurors think the boy is believable.
Testimony ended on Friday after prosecutors showed the panel Gavin Arviso’s videotaped interview with sheriff’s detectives in July 2003. Jury deliberations could come as soon as next week.
“Bottom line, if they don’t believe the accuser, the jurors end up voting not guilty,” said Jim Hammer, a trial analyst and former San Francisco prosecutor.
