So bottom line , pay 15 million or pay 100 million and have your personal life exposed.. whats it going to be.

I agree with your assesment, it was definitly discussed and was part of the equation but was not the primary reason for settling.
100 million in 1993? dont think so but Jackson at that time had the money to prove his innocence and woudve done so.
You have a minor who described what jacksons cock looked like, there are pictures of jacksons cock as evidence and they match the descriptions so you sure as fuck dont go to trial you settle.
And being that Johhny Cochran was Jacksons lawyer, he sure as fuck wasnt going to defend a case that was going to lose.
