L.A. prosecutor says defense will claim Michael Jackson killed himself in trial for Dr. Conrad Murray
Defense attorneys for Dr. Conrad Murray will argue Michael Jackson killed himself, Los Angeles County prosecutor David Walgren claimed today at a hearing, according to an Associated Press report. Walgren and Murray’s lawyer J. Michael Flanagan were in court arguing over testing residue from syringes found in the pop star’s bedroom. ”I do think it’s clear the defense is operating under the theory that the victim, Michael Jackson, killed himself,” said Walgren. ”They don’t want to say it, but that’s the direction in which they are going.” Flanagan declined to comment. A preliminary hearing for Murray’s involuntary manslaughter trial begins Jan. 4.
Kelsey Grammer comments on engagement to Kayte Walsh: 'We are in love'
Kelsey Grammer, 55, spoke to People about his engagement to girlfriend Kayte Walsh, 29, saying, “Kayte and I are marrying because we are engaged, and we are engaged because we are in love and see no reason to postpone our happiness any longer.” Though he did not say when the two will marry, he added, “We are planning something we wish to be a private affair among several of our friends. Anything else is conjecture and false. Kayte and I are the only reliable source for this story. End of story.”
Over the summer it was announced that Walsh, a British flight attendant, was pregnant with Grammer’s child, but in October she released a statement saying she suffered a miscarriage some six weeks earlier.
Grammer is in the midst of what is reportedly a very costly divorce from third wife Camille Grammer, who stars on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. The couple have been married for 13 years and have two children together, daughter Mason, 8, and son Jude, 6. Kelsey also has two older daughters, Spencer, 27, and Greer, 18, from previous relationships.
