Book Reviews of Michael Jackson Conspiracy
Book Review: Can't even read it...
Summary: 1 Stars
I have not read any work by this author previously. Her use of punctuation is so distracting to the flow of writing that I cannot continue reading. She has more commas in the first chapter than an entire book might have. The first two chapters are mainly about the author. She reiterates her perceived status in her career to the point of nausea. Enough about you already, just get to the subject of the book! Book Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
If you want to get inside the courtroom, this is the book to buy. This tells a truthful story of what REALLY happened. She even gives you some extra details that weren't in the transcripts. The author gives you a closer look of the outtakes of the Martin Bashir interview with Michael Jackson. I recommend this book to all. Book Review: ms. jones is an excellent crime writer!
Summary: 5 Stars
She takes you right into the courtroom day by day as if you're watching tom sneddon and tom mesereau cross-examining people on the stand. She also shows michael as a very giving person going thru the most difficult obstacle of his life. In no way is she disrepectful and in my opinion, provides a fair and balanced synopsis of the michael jackson trial.
I'm absolutely baffled at the disinterest by many of our u.s. media personalities like oprah and montel not giving ms. jones the opportunity to show the OTHER side. The side of michael jackson whose not a child molestor and as a decent person. She reveals many things not told to the american public regarding the neverland raids, the arvisos, the prosecutions mishandling of this case (inflammatory comments by sneddon given to media outlets), etc. I highly recommend this book not just to fans, but ANYONE that wants to know more about the case and esp. the TRUTHFUL way michael jackson was being mistreated. Both as a defendant and also as human being.
Book Review: Surprise! Surprise!
Summary: 5 Stars
Having followed the trial closely as it unfolded, I learned quickly that I could not depend on the media for an accurate view of what happened. I was hearing totally different accounts from the news than I was hearing from acquaintences of mine who had been in the courtroom. So I relied upon the published trial transcripts for all my information. Because of this, there were no real surprises for me when I read this book.
However, for those who did not seek out the truth on their own, there will be lots of surprises. Jones has it right when she says that a majority of the media reporting from Santa Maria were either too caught up in the feeding frenzy, or to afraid to buck the system, to report on this event with accuracy or fairness.
Jones has taken care to do so in this book, and I am glad that there is documentation of what really happened - documentation that is an interesting and readable form and readily available to any interested party to read. Jones writing style is engaging and her reliance upon actually trial transcripts helps to bring the story to life while it remains a testament to the truth.
If the media had reported this trial in a more objective way, there would have been no surprises when 14 not guilty verdicts were read out in that courtroom. Instead we must depend upon an alternate source, rather than the very industry that has the resources and the power to keep us informed. If the media had done its job, people would have been able to ask the big question: Why was this case ever prosecuted? Thank you, Ms. Jones, for doing their job for them.
Book Review: At last, a truthful account.
Summary: 5 Stars
For anyone interested in truth and justice, then this is the book for you. Jones has spent two years researching this book, spending many hours looking through actual trial transcripts.
I was able to spend a week in Sants Maria and lucky enough to get into the court four out of the five days. Everyday, after the court session had ended I would watch that days media coverage. I remember watching and thinking to myself 'were any of these people actually inside the courtroom' because what was reported had absolutly no relevance to the days testamony.
Thank you Ms Jones, for showing the media up for the bias and pack mentality that they showed.
