- Notes
- - Caption label from exhibit Drawing Justice: Trial of Michael Jackson. In 2005, Michael Jackson faced trial in Santa Monica, California, on charges of molesting a teenager. He was found not guilty. After the trial Jackson said, "I haven't been betrayed or deceived by children. Adults have let me down." Artist Bill Robles found drawing at the trial a challenge he endured the "Melville diet" named after Judge Rodney Melville who scheduled only three ten-minute breaks and no lunch. Robles had barely enough time to meet the network news truck to film his drawings before returning inside to draw again.
