Robert Conrad Murray Los Angeles, Jan 8 (THAINDIAN NEWS) According to reports, the Michael Jackson prosecutors will seek an involuntary manslaughter indictment of Michael Jackson’s doctor, Dr Conrad Murray. A law enforcement source says that Dr. Conrad Murray will be prosecuted on a theory of gross negligence, according to the Associated Press. The Los Angeles Police Department will do the formality of presenting the Michael Jackson case to the district attorney before an indictment can be sought against the doctor.

Dr Conrad Murray is Michael Jackson’s personal physician who provided him with the anesthetic propofol that the coroner’s officials say killed the pop singer, has remained the main focus in the investigation. However on his part Conrad Murray has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and insists he gave then-appropriate medical aid when he found Jackson distressed and not breathing on June 25. His attorney has stressed that Murray is fully cooperating with authorities.

After the autopsy was performed on Michael Jackson then the Los Angeles County coroner’s office determined that Jackson died from “acute propofol intoxication” combined with sedatives and labeled his death a homicide. And Jackson’s physician Dr Conrad Murray prescribed these medications to him. So on account of this, Murray was the main focus of the investigation.
