REP. PETER KING, R-NY
"Let's knock out the psychobabble," Congressman King said in a video, which was posted by his campaign. "He was a pervert, a child molester; he was a pedophile. And to be giving this much coverage to him, day in and day out, what does it say about us as a country?
King said "there's nothing good about" Jackson."
No one wants to stand up and say we don't need Michael Jackson. He died, he had some talent, fine," he said. "He may have been a good singer, he did some dancing. Bottom line is, would you let your child or grandchild be in the same room with Michael Jackson? What are we glorifying him for?"
I see this guy, who's really a lowlife, and he's being treated like a hero of civilization."
Whoopie Goldberg, appearing on television’s The View, was quick to pipe in most emphatically that she would let her child or grandchild be in the same room with Jackson. What else would you expect that "leftie" to say?
As for me, to Rep. King’s remarks I say, Amen!
LAPD CONTAMINATED THE "CRIME" SCENE
Defense attorney Harland Braun, who has represented celebrities including Robert Blake, Roseanne and Gary Busey, charged that LAPD allowed the scene of Jackson’s death to be contaminated. The investigating officers did not secure the scene and allowed the Jackson family to remove several truckloads of Jackson’s belongings. LAPD did not obtain a search warrant until four days later. Braun believes that any forthcoming prosecutions will be severely compromised because evidence could have been removed or planted during the interim.
True enough. Every police officer is taught to respond to any death as if it were a homicide. But in this case I am going to defend the LAPD officers. When they arrived on the scene a doctor and paramedics were attending to Jackson, he had not been pronounced dead, and there was no evidence of any foul play. Under the circumstances, what the officers saw was a medical emergency, not a crime.
I remember a homicide case I participated in where the crime scene was not secured. A neighbor of the victim, a widow in her eighties, called our department to report that he had found her dead sitting in a rocking chair on the front porch of her house. The responding officers did not see any evidence of foul play. The body was removed by the medical examiner’s office.
Not until the next day did the medial examiner notify us that the autopsy revealed the victim had been shot behind the ear with what appeared to be .22 cal. bullet. Tbe entrance wound, which had been hidden by her hair, was so tiny that it scabbed over immediately.
There had been no blood at the scene and there were no other signs of any foul play. Even the medical examiner who came to the scene saw no evidence of a homicide. Thus, after the body was removed, the crime scene was left unattended and any evidence that might have been on the porch or inside the house was contaminated.
By canvassing the neighborhood for witnesses, we lucked out and learned that someone had seen a sailor near the victim’s home close to the time of death. By checking with all the naval bases in Southern California for sailors on leave, we came up with a suspect who confessed to shooting the victim as he was robbing her.
So, even when police officers respond to a death call as if it were a homicide, under certain circumstances the most experienced officer can conclude that there was no foul play. And that’s why LAPD should not be faulted for failing to secure the scene of Jackson's death.
SARAH PALIN’S RESIGNATION
With all the speculation over why Sarah Palin resigned as governor of Alaska, leave it up to my wife to come up with a jewel of an explanation. She said that Palin was so overcome with grief over the death of Michael Jackson that she just couldn’t go on. And being the good Christian family values conservative that she is, Palin would never admit that she was grieving for a child molester.
God bless the old battleaxe! For 55 years I've been blessed with her quick wit and great sense of humor.
