XXXXX DRUDGE REPORT XXXXX WED JAN 26, 2005 16:24:38 ET XXXXX

BRING IT: JACKSON WANTS SNEDDON TO PERSONALLY TRY CASE!

**Exclusive**

Michael Jackson wants his nemeses Santa Barbara County DA, Tom 'Mad Dog' Sneddon, to personally try the case against him in open court, top legal sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

"Don't hide behind your office, Mr. Sneddon!" a top Jackson source challenged.

In a dramatic high-stakes move, Jackson wants Sneddon to personally make opening arguments, claiming the case "would never have been brought without [Sneddon's] 'vendetta.'"

"Let Mr. Sneddon live or die by his own sword," the top legal source explained.

Sneddon still tries cases himself in court. "I love trials, and it’s good to get out of the office and do something I enjoy so much," Sneddon says.

"I also think that in an office my size it’s important for the lawyers to be able to see that the boss can still try a case, so that when people come to you and ask whether this or that should be done, they know that you’re not just a bench jockey and that you know what you’re talking about.”

Sneddon is serving his sixth and, he says, his last four-year term as DA of Santa Barbara County.

Meanwhile, FOXNEWS's Geraldo Rivera [who has secured an interview with Jackson to counter any damage of leaked grand jury testimony] claims: "The case will be revealed in the days and weeks to come to be so fatally flawed, you will wonder why it was even brought to begin with!"

Geraldo, interviewed late Tuesday night on top Los Angeles talker KFI, said: "Wait until you see the case against Jackson totally fall apart. Michael Jackson did not molest this kid. Period. The charges against him are fake.

"They have been created by grifters to cash in on a beleaguered and besieged guy. He is being railroaded here by a district attorney who is out of control, who is about to retire."

I have to admit, iam really looking forward to the trial.....

Is Chris Tucker really gonna testify?

But when Michael gets through this trial (if of course, he doesn't go to prison)
will he have a new album? he bloody better have!!!

Plus theres always a new jacksons album rumour.....Janet said there was a new album back in 1997 i think?

LaToya might actually have a decent dance record coming out. Plus she's what you'd loosly label a survivor. Plus the commotion she caused a few years back bordered on genius.

If Michael gets out of this trial alive here is what he should do-

1. Go on National TV and give a big "Fuck you" to the sensationalistic media outlets and Tom Sneddon.

2. Go on a world tour with Janet.

The first thing he should do is run for DA.

Honestly?

I don't know whether any of them are believable. We're less than a week away, so we'll see how this plays out. On one hand, Sneddon's been waiting a decade to go after MJ, and he wouldn't bring this case if he didn't have something. On the other hand, the key witnesses are either incapacitated or suffer from serious credibility issues.

This story says what?

1 - That MJ & his lawyers want Tom Sneddon make the opening statement.

Well maybe they would like him to wear a tutu also.
Defendants don't dictate to the DA who makes the opening statement.
This is idiotic.

2 - Geraldo says he thinks the case will fall apart.

This isn't news its just Geraldo's opinion.

I posted this on another MJ thread but I think its more pertinent here.
Sorry for repeating myself but I'm so proud I managed to make a link I just can't stop myself.

I recently rediscovered MJ's talent. I literally forgot how good he is. I hope that ,if he is innocent,he gets out from under this mess and makes some really fun music.He should just go buckwild with creativity and do some real celebratory jams and collaborate with all types of artists, except rappers.I mean,do a cut with Velvet Revolver,sing a duet with Chris Cornell,cut a jam or breezy jazz tune with Prince,do some Stevie,some Blind Boys,some Kraftwerk,john legend,stanley clarke,radiohead,u2,fiona apple,etc,etc. He could blow the world away again.

lol,Geraldo goes nuts over high-profile cases like this.Remember during the OJ trial,he was talking about it almost everyday on his talk show! He was obsessed with it,making it the focus of nearly every show.I think he gets bored whenever there isn't a celebrity on trial,lol.
