Jackson Abuse Charges Still Stand
2008-01-14来源:
现年46岁的迈克尔·杰克逊涉嫌对幼童性侵害案，双方律师日前已正式进入法庭展开庭讯，下一场听证会将被推迟到11月4日。据悉，他将于明年一月份正式受审。The judge in the Michael Jackson case has rejected the singer's attempt to have multiple child abuse charges thrown out of court.
Judge Rodney Melville ruled there was enough evidence to warrant the charges. He also rejected a request from defence lawyers to exclude evidence seized from Mr Jackson's Neverland ranch and a private investigator's office. Mr Jackson, 46, has pleaded not guilty to 10 child abuse charges. He is due to stand trial in January. The judge has put off until the next hearing on 4 November a defence request to have the chief prosecutor, Santa Barbara County district attorney Tom Sneddon, removed from the case. Mr Jackson's lawyers allege that Mr Sneddon has a vendetta against the star dating to a 1993 abuse inquiry that did not result in charges.
