There is one thing I don't understand about this Michael Jackson case.

See, when someone comes forth and alleges that a Catholic priest abused him, usually a few other people come forth and say "me too", right? Especially if said priest has been getting away with it for a long time.

With Michael Jackson, this did not happen, either in the previous allegation, nor this one (yet).

Why would multiple allegations surface against a priest, who lives in one community for a very long time, but only isolated allegations against Michael Jackson, who meets busloads of kids at his amusement park home every week?

Am I right, or am I out "BICYCLING"?

Dead, green presidents.

Jackson is likely paying a lot of people to be quiet.

And not one of them has the principles to refuse the money and come forward anyway?

Nor do any of them have the gall to accept the money and come forward anyway?

Consider the sample selection bias here. You're talking about parents who willingly put their kids in the man's hands knowing what a freak he was.

Remember that I'm applying this standard to the allegation in the 90's as well, when this whole Neverland thing was just "quirky". Though maybe I remember the time more innocently than it really was.
