Just in time to distract from the Protests in London the Presstitutes now have their excuse to not cover the London Protests. Interesting Timing.

Arrest Warrant Issued For Michael Jackson

11-19-3

LAS VEGAS (Reuters) - California police have issued an arrest warrant for pop star Michael Jackson and are negotiating with his lawyers on the terms of his surrender, a Las Vegas police spokesman said on Wednesday.



The spokesman said that California authorities had contacted the Las Vegas department because Jackson was staying in the gambling resort city preparing a music video.



Spokesman Jose Montoya said the Santa Barbara Sheriff's Department did not specify the charges in the warrant against Jackson.



There have been widespread media reports that the 45-year-old singer is being investigated on allegations that he molested a 12-year-old boy who stayed at his Neverland Ranch about three months ago.



Santa Barbara police have scheduled a news conference for 2 p.m. EST. About 60 police investigators have been searching Jackson's Neverland Ranch compound in central California since Tuesday, hauling away dozens of boxes in the so-far unexplained probe.
