In his first interview since his arrest on child molestation charges, Michael Jackson tells Ed Bradley it"™s still ok to share his bed with children in a report to be broadcast on CBS News' 60 Minutes, Sunday, Dec. 28 at 7 p.m./ET, 6 p.m./Central.
The pop star says, "Of course. Why not? If you"™re going to be a pedophile, if you"™re going to be Jack the Ripper, if you"™re going to be a murderer, it"™s not a good idea. That I am not."
But he vehemently denies the charges against him. An impassioned Jackson says, "Before I would hurt a child, I would slit my wrists," in reaction to a Bradley question about the charges brought against him that he molested a young boy.
Jackson also says that the police search of Neverland Ranch was overdone and so violated his privacy that his home will never be the same.
He tells Bradley, "I won"™t live there ever again. It"™s a house now. It"™s not a home anymore. I"™ll only visit."
He also discusses his time in police custody, talking about the injury he says was inflicted on him by the police when they handcuffed him and other details about his arrest.
The interview took place Thursday night, Dec. 25 in a Los Angeles hotel. The pop star has been charged with performing lewd acts with a child under 14.
