Before his trial began in January, Jackson stated, “As you know, the charges recently directed at me are terribly serious.  They are, however, predicated on a big lie. This will be shown in court, and we will be able to put this horrible time behind us.”  “Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons. The truth will win this marathon in court,” he added.
