When I'm ready, I plan to adopt. I still believe in family.

I've always wanted to adopt kids ever since I was 16 years old. I always said I'm going to adopt, I'm going to adopt. There's too many kids in the world that need love and attention, I can give it to them.

I realize now I didn't really want to die. I just wanted to stop the hurt and pain.

You do learn from what you've done in the past.

The end of the trial and the 'not guilty' verdicts on all counts, clearing Michael of all charges, mean that he can now concentrate on the future and his art.
