Yes, the first time he reached a settlement with the accused family for $20 million I believe.
The second time (in 2005?) a jury acquitted him of charges due to weak evidence.
What kind of parents take money to close their eyes when (and if) their child was indeed molested anyway? I'd never sell out my own child this way.

PS: I've never heard of Farrah until the report of her death, but I do believe she was talented (and certainly beautiful).
PS2: What strikes me the most is how beneficial the death of the musician turned for the Iranian government. The world's media attention totally shifted in a matter of minutes. The less riot coverage, the less motivation the people of Iran will have to continue protesting.
