I watched her program and I am glad that someone is trying to get the rest of the story out there to counterbalance the negative media treatment of an innocent man.
Those of us who have backgrounds in psychiatry/psychology have shared the belief that Michael suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder from the Chandler episode;the strip search and photography were especially humiliating to a sensitive man.The way the legal team decided to solve the matter was also not good;they were more interested in the performer bringing in the bucks than the man clearing his name.Then Bashir and the Avizos further added onto the stress with that ill-thought,poorly produced special and more charges,false charges,yet again that led to Michael's arrest and trial.Michael was found not guilty of all charges but the media being what it is only wanted to paint him as a weird child molester.Aphrodite Jones was quite clear about why and how the media treated and still treats Michael in that way.The media are irresponsible,amoral,poorly reared bullies who can't admit when they are wrong.
Post Traumatic Stress further compounded Michael's sleep disorder.His stress from suffering the highly visible skin disease,vitiligo,and its companion skin-based lupus erythematosus, only caused more stress.That last trial just debilitated Michael;he was most likely clinically depressed as well.He was just breaking through the depression by coming back into show business,if just for awhile.Michael had plans;he wanted to perform still,but not tour,produce more music and perhaps movies as well.Michael had much to look forward to,but Post Traumatic Stress brought on by false accusations led to unsafe choices that killed him.
I was a little taken aback by Jones' saying that Michael had bed sores;I reread the autopsy report and looked at the drawings and no bed sores were reported.Michael suffered post mortem abrasions from lying on top of prayer beads.He had scarring and patches of dark pigmentation on his legs,but I saw no mention of bed sores.Can anyone look at the autopsy and find the page where it mentions bed sores? It is my great wish that those public people who defend Michael Jackson report the facts and get them right,because other media folks will point out the mistakes and say that Michael Jackson's fans are not willing to accept some truths,all while the same can be sad about them.Unfortunately,unless masses of people complain to these media folks,show proof,and maybe take some of them to court(which only the Jackson family can do),these media folks are going to continue on doing the same old wrong things.
