Michael Jackson's doctor set to be charged over the singer's death

Michael Jackson's doctor set to be charged over the singer's death


 Celebrity website TMZ.com claims Dr Murray could be charged with involuntary manslaughter within the next few days.

Authorities are ready to charge Dr Conrad Murray in the death of Michael Jackson, according to a new report in the US.

Celebrity website TMZ.com claims Dr Murray could be charged with involuntary manslaughter within the next few days.

After a lengthy investigation the Los Angeles District Attorney's office believes Dr Murray caused the King of Pop's sudden death.

The physician has already admitted injecting Jackson with the powerful sedative Propofol in the hours before his death and investigators allegedly believe this gross negligence was to blame for the tragedy.

Jacko died of a heart attack caused by "acute Propofol intoxication", according to the Los Angeles coroner, who ruled the death was a homicide.

TMZ.com now claims Los Angeles County District Attorney Steve Cooley is ready to go ahead with criminal action against Murray.

The 50-year-old doctor denies any wrongdoing and his lawyer said Murray wanted to hand himself in to police if charges are pressed – rather than face a humiliating arrest.

Jackson died last June after allegedly requesting an array of sedatives from Murray after returning home following rehearsals to get ready for his shows at The O2 arena in London.
