Michael Jackson's Doctor Conrad Murray Will Likely Only Serve...

Two Years In Jail Or On House Arrest

November 29. 2011

Conrad Murray, the doctor of pop singer Michael Jackson at the time of his death from a Propofol overdose, has been sentenced to 4-years in jail in California. Due to overcrowding issues, experts estimate Murray will only serve half that time, while TMZ states he will get house arrest, due to being a first time offender.

Murray deserves more time in jail, actually prison, as someone has died in his care, under preventable circumstances, based in recklessness and negligence, which any doctor or scientist should know would induce death. You just can't give someone that much medication of that class (drug designation) in one go. Murray is no fool. He should have known.

Judge Pastor gave Murray the maximum sentence he could mete out under state law, which the singer's mother, Katherine Jackson commended. The rest is up to the jail system. Pastor cited Murray's shocking lack of remorse and refusal to accept responsibility in the singer's death, which is true. In a letter to the judge requesting leniency, Murray's mother expressed more contrition than he did, when she was not the one that committed the crime. All the signs are there Murray obtained potent pharmaceutical drugs in the wrong medical setting for a quick payday and fame by association.
