I agree. Also, he was acquitted on all counts.

Not only was he one of the best performers, he was also an incredible composer. He heard “Beat It” in his head so clearly, he recorded a demo of the whole song using an 8 channel mixer and cassette.

I'm not interested in getting into a deep thing here, but IMO acquittal doesn't mean shit. He was one of the most famous people of all time, I don't think there was ever a chance he would be convicted if he was guilty or innocent. Hell, even non famous people get off because of jury nullification and various other things when there's good evidence the person committed the crime.
