I knew if I continued reading this thread that someone would get to the point that seems lost in this whole mess. Why is it a good idea to allow your child to spend time alone with this guy? Bedroom or kitchen or anywhere...why is this a good idea?
If Jacko calls me on the phone and says "Hey ... would you mind if Timmy came over for a sleep over?" Uuuuum...no Whacko ... Timmy is going to be busy for the rest of his life as far as you are concerned. No need to call back.
For the record I have no children so perhaps I'm not the best source for judgement calls like this but it seems to reason that if you put your child in harms way to a certain degree you have the right to expect he or she will get hurt. Maybe....just maybe that's what the parents were hoping for in this case. Jacko is a walking freak show and that's note new news. Maybe the next trial that should happen is for these parents to be charged with negligence.
