    Was he ever convicted of anything?

      No. On the other hand, you don’t pay $15 to $25 million for no reason.

        Well, one reason might be that he’s had enough of being dragged through the courts?

            Of course you do!

            For example: Kevin Spacey was accused of A LOT of heinous shit and in at least one case the charges were so ridiculous that HE got awarded recompense by the court.

            Then you have THIS. Just in 2010s you have 28 cases of people wrongfully convicted (convicted - they went to prison while being innocent)!

              Pretty sure Spacey is also guilty.

            Yup, no innocent person has ever been to court.

              Big difference here. MJ paid NOT to go to court.
