I just saw MJ being taken inside the sherrifs dept in handcuffs and I have to say it made me very sad to see him come to this. I thought the dept and DA handled themselves very unproffesionally in their press conference yesterday- joking around and making inappropriate statements along with factual errors. That's not just me- I have heard three different unbiased experts saying the same thing on CNN and FOX today..this does look personal in some ways.

The pop superstar stepped out of a car in handcuffs and was escorted into the sheriff's building, where he would be booked.
Jackson was met by authorities at the small Santa Barbara Municipal Airport, where he landed in his private jet from Las Vegas just before 3 p.m. EST (noon PST).
Santa Barbara County Sheriff Jim Anderson said Jackson was in custody and had turned over his passport. He didn't have any further comment.
During Jackson's booking he was to be fingerprinted, photographed and checked for weapons at the sheriff's office. The proceedings were likely to take a few hours, according to Fox News Senior Judicial Analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano. Authorities said they'd set bail at $3 million.
There has been a warrant out for Jackson's arrest since Wednesday.
Jackson flew from North Las Vegas Airport aboard a leased jet late Thursday morning, according to an employee of XtraJet, a Santa Monica leasing company.
The jet carried Jackson, his family and a bodyguard and parked in a hangar after landing so that passengers disembarking were hidden from view.
Jackson's high-profile attorney, Mark Geragos (search) ? who is also representing accused double murderer Scott Peterson ? reached a deal with authorities earlier Thursday concerning terms of the singer's surrender.
"I have made arrangements with the sheriff and the district attorney for Mr. Jackson to come back and confront these charges," Geragos told The Associated Press.
Reports of a Thursday surrender had been circulating since the previous night.
The 12-year-old cancer patient at the center of the Michael Jackson child molestation scandal may have confessed to his psychiatrist that the pop singer plied him with wine and sleeping pills when he allegedly molested him, sources told Foxnews.com's Roger Friedman.
Sources also told Friedman that Jackson's camp has been preparing to face such accusations for months.
They plan to hold the boy's mother up to severe scrutiny, and will likely argue that when Jackson tried to end his financial support of the boy and his family, the mother became, quoting a Jackson insider, "a scorned woman."
"She's very screwed up," said one source. "There's videotape of her acting weird, too. And Michael was very kind to her, even getting an apartment for her boyfriend."
Jackson's team's argument will be, according to sources, that when the boy's mother was told by Jackson's people that the free ride was over, she ran to a lawyer.
The "King of Pop" amassed a half-billion-dollar fortune over the past 20 years, but his former financial advisers said in a lawsuit last spring that he is saddled with debt and teetering near bankruptcy. Current financial advisers have denied that claim.
But another source told Fox News that the boy's family wasn't looking for any monetary settlement but instead wanted justice served through the court system. The family was said to be in seclusion, according to the source.
A family friend, Steve Manning, told a morning television news show Thursday that Jackson's family came to Las Vegas to support him.
"He feels he's been wrongly accused and he's going to fight this tooth and nail," Manning said. "He's at war right now and he's going to use any weapon he has to fight these charges."
His arrest warrant set bail at $3 million and Jackson was directed to give up his passport, authorities said.
The 45-year-old singer was in Las Vegas when dozens of law enforcement agents swarmed his Neverland Ranch compound Tuesday to serve a search warrant. The raid lasted more than 14 hours.
Search warrants were also served at two California film and video companies; still photographs and videotape of Jackson with children were found, Fox News learned.
During the searches, Jackson was filming a music video with R&B singer R. Kelly (search), US Weekly magazine told Fox News on Wednesday.
Jackson is charged by the state with lewd or lascivious acts with a child under age 14, punishable by three to eight years in prison, law enforcement officials said.
"Michael would never harm a child in any way," Jackson spokesman Stuart Backerman said in a statement. "These scurrilous and totally unfounded allegations will be proven false in a courtroom."
This is the second child molestation accusation brought against the pop singer in the past decade. The earlier charge, in 1993, was dropped when the 13-year-old boy refused to testify. Jackson maintained his innocence but reportedly paid a $20 million settlement the following year and the case became inactive.
Since then ? and because of that case specifically ? the law in California has changed regarding young victims of sexual abuse. Now they can be forced to testify. In this case, the victim is cooperating with authorities, according to Sneddon.
He added that multiple counts would be filed against Jackson "in a very short period of time" and noted that no civil case had been filed and none was expected, unlike in 1993.
Earlier Wednesday, authorities said they were negotiating Jackson's surrender with his lawyers, which Anderson said must happen within "a specified period of time." He declined to say how long that would be.
"I believe he's willing to cooperate with us," the sheriff said.
The arrest warrant is for a violation of Section 288(a) of the California Penal Code (search), which prohibits lewd or lascivious acts with a child under age 14, according to Sneddon.
If convicted, Jackson could face three to eight years for a single count of molestation, and two years each for any subsequent count adding up to almost 20 years.

In his own words, 'Leave him alone'. This is obvious extortion. The father of the 12 year-old boy who is accusing Jackson has already said that the boy's mother is behind this and that she is an unfit parent. The previous kid who accused Jackson a decade ago was also in the middle of a bitter custody battle. Frankly, it's just too easy to use MJ. He does seem to have some fixation on children, although this is probably innocent and stems from the adult-oriented childhood he had. Already there are loopholes in the accuser involving custody disputes as there was in 1993. All the charity he has done in better times and contemporary times like Heal the World seems to be completely oblivious to the media. I'm with BOBs. Michael Jackson is tha shit.
 Remember that night?
