About 400 friends, family and fans of Michael Jackson attended a post-trial party at the Chumash Tribe's casino on Friday.
The tribe beefed up security for the event, attended by several Jackson family members but not the pop star, who was found not guilty of child molestation charges by a jury. The media was not allowed inside and tribal police ejected at least one reporter who tried to get in.
Jackson's Neverland ranch is near the tribe's reservation. Jackson's brother Tito sometimes performs at the casino. Some family members stayed at the casino hotel during the trial.
