Family Kept Away from Jackson by Assoc. during Crucial Timeline – MB#268
Family Kept Away from Jackson by Associates during Crucial Timeline – MB#268 MAY 20 2005 — Defense witness Azja Pryor testified yesterday in the Michael Jackson trial. She was Chris Tucker’s girlfriend at the time they knew the Arvizo family. To suggest that Pryor’s testimony was simply a ‘help’ to the defense is an unbelievable understatement. Not only did the defense get to knockdown the “hostage”/”conspiracy” charge, but they also got to address the molestation allegation through Pryor’s testimony. Pryor testified that in early March 2003, Janet Arvizo complained to her the Arvizo children were actively being kept away from Jackson by associates of Jackson. This is an enormous bombshell because, if you remember, the prosecution is alleging that this is the time the alleged “molestation” was supposed to have happened with the accuser sleeping in Jackson’s bed and the brother allegedly witnessing it. The obvious conclusion to draw is how in hell could Jackson have molested this kid if they were being kept away from him? That’s a question pro-prosecution pundits have absolutely avoided thus far because it directly attacks the molestation allegation.

Accuser’s Disturbing Behavior, Lying Under Oath, Coaching Kids – MB#267
[b] Accuser’s Disturbing Behavior, Family Lying Under Oath, Mother Coaching Kids – MJEOL Bullet #267[/b] MAY 19 2005 — The defense continues to blaze through the prosecution’s “case” by hammering away at the credibility of the accusing family; showing that not only have they lied in the past, but they have also lied under oath to the jury in this “case”. Through witnesses, which included an adorable little cousin of Jackson’s, Rijo Jackson, and actress Vernee Johnson, the defense is painting a much different picture of the two Arvizo brothers than what prosecutors wanted the jury to see. Witnesses taking the stand yesterday included actress Vernee Watson Johnson who testified that she met the Arvizos and visited the accuser in the hospital. She says she didn’t trust Janet Arvizo. She testified about the children calling her and telling her they wanted to visit her, and she could actually hear the mother telling them what to say in the background. Another stunning revelation is that Johnson says the mother would coach her kids to request sleepovers at her house, reports the Santa Barbara News-Press in an article titled “Actress Wary of Accuser’s Mother”. From that article:
Ms. Johnson, who met the children through her acting class in Los Angeles, told jurors the woman coached the kids to request sleepovers. “(The brother) would call, and I could hear (the mother) in the background saying, ‘Tell her you love her, tell her you love her.’ And then he’d ask to spend the night. I heard her telling (him) to ask me.” (see Actress wary of accuser’s mother)
