What sort of legal system takes up to a month to choose 12 jurors for a trial from a list of about 750 (according to reports). What are they going to be asking them? "Do you have a copy of 'Thriller'"? How much money is going to be wasted?

We'll get a chance to see how much better your system is in a few years . MJ will most likely flee the country and be a jet-setting fugative like Polansky . You'll get a shot at trying him after he molests some kid over there .

A justice system divided for those who have millions of dollars and those who don't have squat...🙄

That's it in a nutshell why the death penalty should be abolished in the good old US of A; the rich people can afford lawyers who will actually stay awake at the trial.
