Neverland Ranch -- The Raid Photos

The Santa Barbara County Sheriff's deputies who raided Michael Jackson's home in 2003 at Neverland Ranch had their hands full -- the place was a mess.

Neverland Ranch -- The Raid Photos
All these photos were taken inside the house, as deputies faced the daunting task of sifting through all of MJ's stuff.

By the way, most of the evidence involving drugs was never admitted at trial, because authorities felt it was not relevant to the molestation charge. Most of this evidence hasn't surfaced until we combed through tens of thousands of documents and photos.

61. What really concerns me and I'm shocked that nobody has brought this up yet is the fact that his 3 kids have been growing up with all these drugs and this mess in this house! I mean if everyone is saying there were drugs everywhere...then why on earth would you let Michael raise 3 kids in a house full of drugs? If the cops knew he had so many drugs everywhere and then did nothing to stop Michael from having his kids...they are also guilty of child endangerment! Then this mess to top it all off! How on earth could you let someone who is hooked on drugs and lives like this raise children! I'm pissed nobody did anything to protect those kids!

63. I can't really say I'm a Michael Jackson fan but if you ask me it looks like they took 51 pictures of the same room from different angles. You can see alot of the same things in multiple pictures just in different locations. Maybe this was just a storage room. If someone took multiple pictures of my attic people would probably think the same thing of me. I will admit the maniquins of children are a little freaky.

65. #45 - you need to remember that the kids were actually being raised by a staff and by nannies. Not by Michael. I'm sure they were kept away form drugs and away from Michael while he was high. It wasn't a conventional domestic situation by any means. You can't look at it from a "normal" perspective.

67. Oh wow, what a great father. Why didn't he hire a freakin' army of maids or something? These kids could have had everything in the world, instead they got a drug addled father and lived in squalor. I'm sure to them he was a great father... spent the time when he was doped up with the nanny, and when he was less doped up they got to do all of the great stuff like going on the merry-go-round and whatever else Michael had on his creepy ranch, so I'm sure he seemed like a lot of fun to them, but this just ain't right.

69. I can hardly wait for the moment an obit is published for a tmz writer. Your family will reap what you have sown and I'll do my part to blow out of proportion every bit of scum in your crummy little lives.

70. The police made this mess. Not Michael himself. Look: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1197565/Sheriffs-raid-Michael-Jacksons-Neverland-Ranch.html

72. LOOKS LIKE THE ROOM OF AN OVERGROWN KID. I WILL RESERVE ANY ACCUSATIONS ABOUT HIM BEING A PERVERT IF AND WHEN I SEE SOME INDICATION OF IT. WHERE ARE THE SUPPOSED COPIES OF BOOKS AND MAGAZINES ABOUT YOUNG BOYS? YOU'D THINK THEY WOULD HAVE TAKEN PICTURES OF THIS.

73. I guess those could have been his "junk rooms". I mean....I have a walk in closet that has looked pretty bad at times. The spiderman lunchbox or the frankenstein head really wouldn't go with the ritzy main decor, I'm sure, so he would open the door and give it a toss in the junk room. Maybe the mannequins were playmates for the kids, since they weren't allowed to be social with kids in the neighborhood. If that is the case...we will have a whole new set of problems in about 5 years.

74. You idiots. They did this when the raided his home. It Was Not like this before they came. Why don't you guys take a look at the 60 minutes interview he did when all these things went down. They trashed his place NOT HIM.

75. Someone posted that one of the drugs found was used in hospitals when you have a colonoscopy. I have had a tube down the throat and was given this drug.
It causes AMNESIA You are not asleep but do not remember a thing.
IT has never crossed my mind that drugs were used on children but it is something the LE should have thought about. I always presumed GA testimony was ropey becuase he had been given alcohol but maybe it was more than that.
