I don't know ifI am the only one, BUT every time I see Tom Mesereau I think of Atticus Finch. A man who put his reputation on the line to protect another mans reputation. What a great man! Not only in his work with Michael but his pro bono work in alabama aswell. It's all wonderful. I so love the fact that to this day, even with Michael gone Tom will defend him. & Tom even left his church to go to a new one because of their opinion on MJ. That is a true friend. God Bless Tom Mesereau.

Please, Mr Mesereau, will you keep an eye on what's going to happen next Tuesday, so it doesn't turn out to be a disgrace, once again ?

WHY DON'T YOU GO BACK WHERE YOU CAME FROM!" I'd be telling her that if i were him. L.O.V.E.
