The title says it all, He was loved by some hated by others. But he was huge in the world of music.

RIP

 

Sorry I hope he finds no peace.

I'm not a child molester fan and I refuse to honor his passing in any way.

Well that makes all the difference I guess.

NOT!

I'm with flts on this one as much as it scares me.

Is Joe still alive? That's the SOB I'd like to see dead for screwing up every kid he ever had. I can't imagine what life in that household was like.

 

No he settled out of court for 20 million dollars with one of the kids he abused. Then the case was dropped.

He bought his way out.

criminal cases can't be dropped because of a payout -

i guess if you beleive the tabloids more than actual court cases i can understand but unless you were there OR have specific evidence than what's the point

no matter what the guy did - he was a legend in the music industry ..

 

Sorta like Ike Turner - or Phil Spector?

Ask Tina and Ronnie about the legacy.
