...so do puppies and kittens.

It is certainly possible that his associations with children...and
having them in his bed...was totally innocent. I can believe
that...Moms and Dads do it all the time. But he did it to the
detriment of his career. And who knows the motivations for the
lawsuits and accusations. Unfortunately, his *perspective* was
warped...whether by his early life on child abuse within the Jackson
family. I suppose someone will write *the book*.
