Sean 6,333 Posted June 27, 2018 I am torn on Joes legacy.He beat his kids but I remember him saying that in a rough neighbourhood you had to discipline your kids harshly to avoid gangs and drugs which l can appreciate was a concern and all of his kids were incredibly successful except the illegitimate daughter. Also he stood by Michael during his sex abuse trial despite him slagging him off in the media beforehand.Yes he was a brutal father but that was not the whole picture clearly.He appears to have been a far more complex character than just a disciplinarian who scared and beat his kids.I used to think that he was responsible for Michael becoming deranged but when you look at his other kids they all turned out ok which makes me wonder whether Michael's psychological issues were a product of intense fame as opposed to his tough upbringing?I reckon it was both but can't help but conclude the immense spotlight was the ultimate factor in his mental decline.For the record Joe was still an arsehole.

Sean 6,333 Posted June 27, 2018 But how many brutal Dad's have 9 kids who were hugely successful artists who have a place in popular history? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe you should consider joining all your ideas in one post, my friend. Also, I wouldn't consider LaToya or Tito successful. Justin Bieber is an avant-garde artiste compared to them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theoldlady 2,306 Posted August 18, 2018 David Rothenberg, the 6 year old boy sat on fire by his own father in the 1983 in Buena Park, California has died in Las Vegas at the age of 42. Michael Jackson visited him in the hospital and they became friends until Michael`s Death. David spoke at the funeral. David`s mother wrote a book about David`s ordeal and recovery after being able to survive being burned over 90% of his body. David changed his name to Dave Dave to erase his father`s last name and became a well-known artist in Vegas. His fuck-head father was sentenced to 13 years but got out after about 7 years. Fortunately he was arrested for other crimes and due to the 3-strikes law in California he is sentenced to life - However due to his age he is up for parole 6/2020. He too changed his name to Charley Charles and is in protective custody at Mule Creek State Prison. The prick is 78, no burns, and enjoys 3-square meals a day, free Medical care and a cot to sleep on. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What's worse is that you could probably find people who've done worse things who are free today in California. The justice system is a joke that puts criminals first and frequently neglects victim. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
En Passant 3,742 Posted August 18, 2018 Aye (and see other threads...take that @redrumours..), that well known suburb of LA that's listed on the old lady's avatar..... Norway. It's appalling that this guy could be free yet you could also find people locked up for life without parole for shoplifting, 3 strikes is a ridiculous ruling that worked out well this time. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
