The doctor who treated Michael Jackson prior to the pop star’s death will keep his California medical license, a judge in L.A. ruled Monday, according to Reuters. Dr. Conrad Murray was charged with involuntary manslaughter following Jackson’s death last June; the coroners in charge of Jackson’s death reported that the singer’s death was a homicide caused by an overdose of the surgical anesthetic propofol. (Murray admitted administering the propofol to Jackson.) The California Medical Board had requested that Murray’s license be revoked; the judge ruled that since he already was barred from administering sedatives, “any further restraints must come via an appeal to the initial ruling and not from a new decision.”

I understand why the judge ruled as he did, but regardless this clown should lose his license and be put in jail. Anyway you look at it, it was he who got MJ the stuff and whether he administered it or just observed, he’s guilty of violating his duties as a physician.
well, now it’s becoming more clear.
hoax, hoax, hoax, hoax, hoax!
people, do your research. MJ is a genius.
Anyone that would use this clown as their physician deserves what they get.
