Michael Jackson Case
I just wanted to see what everyone thought of the circus surrounding the Michael Jackson case. I caught some of the coverage at the gym today, and I can't remember such a commotion about a court case since OJ. I'm trying to work through the sociological aspects of it, but I can't seem to find my way out of a massive pile of data currently.... once I find my way out, I'll post a comment. For now: thoughts/comments?

Another aspect of this is the movement from well-regarded celebrity to social deviant. Michael Jackson is one example, but there are many others, whether their "deviance" is in the form of drug or alcohol abuse, sexual scandels, etc. I would also like to see the demographics of the fans outside the courthouse. I think both the age and sex of the Michael supporters could be of interest.
By the way, Valerie, thanks for info about celebrity trials, including the info on the book...quite intriguing!
