Can Michael Jackson be subject to both criminal prosecution and a civil lawsuit?

ANYBODY can be subject to both criminal prosecution and civil lawsuit. Check Mr. O. J. Simpson, one of the leading moneymakers for Court TV since it began. If it had not been for both the criminal and civil trials arrising out of the some sort of event: the alleged killing of his former(?) wife and her friend, both the production company and the broadcasting company would have earned a lot less money that year. Shareholders and traders like murder, maham and really vile human behavior. It's good for the entertainment businss. See: XXXXXX Why would you bother with a particular person? ANYBODY can be subject to BOTH criminal procecution and civil lawsuit(s) and in just about any state. Not just California, which has good production value, however. (Another thing about California, there is a lot of loose behavior which rises to both criminal and civil litigation, thereby, making content for production companies. Californians are not known for their forbearnance with the lawsuit, it appears.)
