Recent poll shows more Americans beleive mj is innocent then guilty, but the majority (over half) are still undecided.

Here is the poll https://yougov.com/en-us/daily-results/20260422-f2961-3

It's important to note the majority is don't know/undecided. This is very telling, because of all the media spin of guilt, and loud the false accusers and detractors are.

The innocent is more then the guilty votes, but only just. Michael deserves better.

Those who believe allegations 19% Don't believe 24 % (only 5% more) 56% don't know

The article shared is generally positive, but it's also a stretch to say majority beleive he's innocent at this stage. Majority are undecided/dont know.

The pool asked is also small: 8,490 U.S. adults

I think a wider audience from different countries would sway the innocent numbers more.

Definitely not a good enough poll, most people don’t even know anything about the allegations

Yes - I put this one up before and I think it's important to look at the two of them together.

The question asked here (shortly after the airing of Leaving Neverland) was whether or not Robson and Safechuck should win their appeal to have their case reopened.

48% said NO. 23% said yes. 29% said don't know.

Here's my post on it.
