Jacko’s ex-lawyer takes the stand after arrest threat

MICHAEL JACKSON’S former lawyer took the stand at his child molestation yesterday after being threatened with arrest if he did not show.

Mark Geragos arrived at Santa Maria court, California, as ordered but was forced to endure a lengthy wait as another witness completed his testimony.

Judge Rodney Melville had issued a stern warning, telling him he must obey a subpoena like any other witness after one of his associates asked if he could reschedule.
