If you look at the details of the last accusation you would never believe he is innocent of child molestation. No wonder he paid $20M to get himself out of that one.

So what is Neverland Ranch?

Lots of us have some sort of perception as to what it is... not much of that is based on knowing much more than 'it's a big house with an amusement park'.

Thought you'd like to explore. It's several things.
- remote
- huge
- remote
- opulent

I can't find the house... maybe you can. It's a mansion (near the ponds I think) that has a large round floral clock in front of it. You can see the gate and the road at the bottom of this image. You see that on CNN a lot these days with the nutcases camped out there. The amusement park is at the top. There's one more level of zoom available. have fun.

John,

The point that I have been trying to make all along is that I DON'T believe he is innocent of child molestation.

I don't, however, believe that the prosecution put together a case strong enough to convict him of the charges that were actually levelled against him in this case. The witnesses were not credible, and the prosecutor should have realised that before he even started the case.

Don't forget that for a criminal conviction it has to be "beyond reasonable doubt" (well that's what the English law says - and I am sure it is similar wording in the US).

Just the background of the family would give some reasaonable doubt IMHO.
