I don't mean to be sensationalistic, but just y'all wait: once the shock dies down, there's going to be rumors that this was faked in order to allow him to withdraw completely from the spotlight.

Farrah's poster sold more than 12 million copies, breaking an old Marilyn Monroe record, I believe.

He was never the same after that... nor was his public opinion. While we'll probably never know the whole truth, given everything we know about pedophiles, he never quite fit the typical profile. In the end, he was a multi millionnaire who never really matured emotionally passed the age of 12.

Sad sad news. He was a musical genius,A world class performer and a phenomenal dancer. Also remember that he was never convicted of any of the charges put against him. Don't let all the negative publicity that he had during his life time taint all the good he had done in his life.
