I’m not surprised. We’ve known for years that Michael Jackson is the strangest inhabitant of this planet. So when cops raided Neverland Ranch, it wasn’t much of a shock. It did seem unusual, since the raid coincided with the release of a collection of Jackson’s number 1 hits. But this can’t be a mere publicity stunt to get Michael’s name on TV. Nobody’s that crazy. He may be a falsetto-voiced baby-dangling black man who looks like a white woman, but even Michael Jackson isn’t that nuts. Right?

There’s got to be a reason for the search, although that reason wasn’t made public at the time of this writing. The Santa Barbara County District Attorney had to have some evidence to convince a judge that there was probable cause to issue a search warrant. I’m sitting here laughing because it’ll be a few short weeks until this will be ripped from the headlines & dramaticized on Law & Order: SVU.

The real story may lie behind the Pelican. The Pelican is Anthony Pelicano, Jackson’s private investigator, who was sent to federal prison on Monday for possessing illegal weapons. Pelicano is now being investigated over illegal wiretaps. Could it be possible that the Pelican rolled on Michael as a plea bargain or, perhaps, immunity on the wire taps charge? Only time will tell how this story will unfold. We all know about Jackson’s financial problems, which should derail possibilities for a settlement, like after his molestation charges from 1993.

Oh the fun we’ll have when all the facts come out. Let’s face it, most of the population has thought Jackson was a pedophile since it was first revealed he’d have slumber parties with children. Time to see if Mikey No-nose can dodge bullets twice.
