Why were policemen brutal to Michael Jackson?

Answer 1

Because they did not like him. That's the bottom line. They were working for the government and were trying their hardest to look for something to pin on him. Putting him in handcuffs and photographing his genitals was a way of making him look like he had really done something wrong, especially with the media focusing on him so much. Believe what you want, but the facts are straight, he was under the spotlight in every direction, every angle, the FBI were monitering him. So if he has done something wrong, I doubt they would let it slip away. Their intention was to bring him down, and they were unsuccessful because Michael Jackson was innocent all along. The laws of justice would not allow him to be taken down by lies.
