FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

BetCBSports.com POSTS ODDS ON MICHAEL JACKSON TRIAL

(Zapote, Costa Rica, 19 November 2003)- Authorities issued an arrest warrant on Wednesday for the self-proclaimed King of Pop, Michael Jackson. The superstar singer of the popular hit, "I'm Bad!" faces multiple counts of child molestation, as the warrant was issued and bail was set at $3 million. The warrant is for violation of a California law that prohibits lewd or lascivious acts with a child under the age of 14.

"This case will be right up there with the Kobe Bryant trial," says BetCBSports.com CEO, Dave Johnson. "High Profile Criminal Trials catch the publics interest. Wagering on the outcome makes it more interesting."

District Attorney, Thomas W. Sneddon Jr., has said that the sealed affidavit, outlining details of the case, will be released in 45 days. He was quoted as saying, "At this point in time, Mr. Jackson has been given an opportunity to surrender himself to the custody of the Santa Barbara Sheriff's Department, within a specified period of time."

A spokesperson for Jackson declined comment, but has said a statement will be released late Wednesday.

Will Michael Jackson be found guilty? Will he serve prison time?

BetCBSports.com has posted the following odds on the outcome:

Yes, Michael Jackson will be found guilty -160
No, Michael Jackson will be acquitted/hung jury +120


(Betting YES on the above odds means the player has to bet $160 to win $100. Betting NO means the player can bet $100 to win $120.).

ABOUT BetCBSports.com

BetCBSports.com is a privately held, offshore, online, gaming company. It is fully licensed and is located in beautiful San Jose, Costa Rica, a major center of online gaming. It got into the business in a very deliberate and independent way. Nine years ago, several staffers, now management of BetCBSports.com, got together to review the state of the online gambling industry. They quickly concluded that there was extraordinary potential for success, and they also realized there was a clear need for a professional, secure and service driven facility for the growing numbers of online players.

Characteristically, the BetCBSports.com planners got off to a quick start. At first, BetCBSports.com created a modest Internet business that appeared to meet the perceived need. During the intervening years since then, it has continually proved it has the right formula, because it has grown and improved every year. Today, it is part of an expanding affiliate network that includes over fifty sports book companies.

BetCBSports.com now offers online and telephone sports betting, casino gambling, horse racing and Poker rooms. It specializes in propositional wagering, in fact, it appears to be setting the example and leading the way.

Behind the action and the play offered by BetCBSports.com is a knowledgeable and respected staff. They recognize the universal fact that players, i.e., their many guests, come first. Customer service, we are told, is more than a polite catch phrase; it is more like a way of life at BetCBSports.com. The staff continually strives to ensure the security, privacy, and quick service for all of their customers.

Ken:

Child Molestation charges are nothing to make fun or..

This goes way beyond bad taste.. it's fukking stupid.

Do these guys think before they do shit like this? Apparently not.

Tacky to say the least.

I suspect this offering will be pulled by morning.

Books will throw props on anything appealing to the public. To name a few a couple of years: who will get pregnant first Christina or Brittney?, or is Ricky Martin gay or straight?, or a friend told me this one will the us find osama or not? and so on. The books will come under heat if this gets out if not already, so don't let it bother you.

I agree it's in horrible taste but look at the publicity the book is already getting and will get in the future in this high profile case.

Raiders:

There are lines of taste that shouldn't be crossed, and CBS seems to crossed it here.

Maybe some jerkoff asshole will put up a killed in Iraq line.

Over 1 US Soldier Killed today -110
Under 1 -130

Remember when how many crashes would occur at a NASCAR race was on the board?

What makes me sick is the 80 cent line.....

OK. As a father of a 4 year old let me just say that if Wacko is guilty, he should fry (all child molesters should) but betting on a trial (while in poor taste) is not the 'guilty by association' desicion you're making out to be.

Just my opinion.
BTY - Let him fry!

GL all & GO DAWGS!

Raiders,

I got them all out for you buddy...

I thought the Department of Defence had the award for bad taste with their proposal to establish a market for political assasinations, outbreak of war and other foreign events that they had trouble predicting.

Of course this is in bad taste...why did you have to ask?

Shrink- Appreciate it, Thanks

SEC- I was on an RX vacation.

Is this M.Jackson prop getting any action? I want to find out what their price is to put up something like this.

Shrink,

your friend Markdel used to have odds on who would die first, but you didn't say anything.
