Los Angeles, California

2. Close-up TV monitor and verdict being announced
3. Reaction from customers
4. SOUNTBITE (English): Greg Slusher, Voxpop:
"Money talks Michael walks, that's all I see."
5. SOUNDBITE (English): Greg Tyler, Voxpop:
"Well, I'm glad for him, but I hope that he realises that some change is needed in his life, and this should be a wake up call, that's it."
6. SOUNDBITE (English): Winona Smith, Voxpop:
"No, I do not think he was guilty but as a mother, if someone was accused of doing something I would not let my child be there."
7. Various shots of Jackson CDs on rack
8. SOUNDBITE (English): Melinda Newman, Billboard Magazine Los Angeles Bureau Chief:
"It could have a very positive affect on his career in that, this is very, very, different from the previous child abuse cases, in that, those were settled, so there was always an issue of was he innocent and he just settled to make them go away, or did he settle because he was guilty. In this case a jury has found him not guilty, and so he's been exonerated."

10. Couple taking photos of Michael Jackson's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
11. SOUNDBITE (English): Ricky Schultz, Voxpop:
"I'm so happy about it. I love Michael Jackson, he was my first favourite pop star as a kid, and I write music too, because I want to be kind of like that, so I think it's great and I think it's all a bunch of rubbish just to get his money or whatever."
12. SOUNDBITE (English): Michael Brown, Voxpop:
"Actually, I don't feel too good about that, I would have thought at least one of the charges would have stuck, I mean, to me it seemed like the alcohol, the children, there seemed like there was evidence on that, but I guess it just didn't stick, so I guess more power to him for getting off on it."
13. SOUNDBITE (English): Kimberley Ogas, Voxpop:
"I can't believe it, I'm flabbergasted, I just heard a couple of minutes ago and I'm just shocked. But more importantly, I hope that the people who are around him, the Michael Jackson group, the machine, will keep a close eye on his activities now and, if it was true and yet it was said to be innocent, I hope that people around him will do things to take care of him and children that might go to Neverland from now on."

New York, New York

15. Reactions to verdicts being read, some cheering, some gasping
16. SOUNDBITE (English): Donna Graves, Voxpop:
"It's the biggest miscarriage of justice since OJ Simpson, and he's going to keep right on doing it."
17. SOUNDBITE (English) Courtney Witz, Voxpop:
"I think we have an excellent legal system so if they found him not guilty obviously that's excellent for all of the Americans, we look up to him, he's an idol, and I just think it's great, Michael Jackson is innocent, this is a great thing."
18. SOUNDBITE (English): Samantha Sheehan, Voxpop:
"I think if it was anybody else, he would have been guilty, if it was somebody on the street, he would have been guilty. Because he's Michael Jackson, he bought his way out of it."
19. SOUNDBITE (English): Javon Jones, Voxpop:
(NOTE - bite starts with Jones cheering Jackson): "The only thing he did wrong was not being smart and hanging around people that want to steal his money. Next time, concentrate on making music, and do what you do best, that's it."
