Michael Jackson's doctor personal doctor Dr. Conrad Murray is in some serious trouble with law enforcement officials.

Murray was with Michael on the day he died and is the apparent focus of a manslaughter investigation because he reportedly injected with Michael Propofol just hours before the singer died.

According to sources at TMZ, Dr. Murray gave Jackson an IV drip of the powerful anesthesia. Police believe Dr. Murray simply wasn't paying attention when the singer's heart stopped beating.

"Authorities believe Dr. Murray may have actually fallen asleep during the time the drug was administered and may have awakened to find Jackson already dead from heart failure," reports TMZ.

The L.A. coroner's pending toxicology report, which can ultimately hold the fate of Dr. Conrad Murray, is expected to be released this week.

"We anticipate releasing it this week," said Los Angeles County Department of Coroner Chief Investigator Craig Harvey on July 27. "We still have details to work out."

Just last week Dr. Murray's Houston office was raided by police and he was identified as the target of a manslaughter investigation in court records. To put it simply, Dr. Murray is in some serious trouble! Do you believe he was responsible for Michael's death? Tell us your thoughts!

UPDATE:
Dr. Conrad Murray’s team has spoken out about the most recent allegations. Tammy Kidd, a spokesperson for Murray’s lawyer Ed Chernoff, said in a statement: “It’s a waste of time responding to all these timed ‘leaks’ from ‘anonymous’ sources.”

"I have no doubt they want to make a case – for goodness sakes, its Michael Jackson - but things tend to shake out when all the facts are made known."

"Everyone needs to take a breath and wait for these long delayed toxicology results.”

The doctor was to blame just as soon as he dissappeared when the sh*t hit the fan. Everyone knows this...now they should track down Elvis's and Anna's doctors.

The promoters stated that Michael had a complete physical, and was in perfect health. Well with all the years of drugs, sleepless nights, and weight problems, how could this be true? This doc (Murry) just added to the many problems. So the promoters are just as much to blame.

Any Doctor prescribing such strong drugs, should be locked up for a very long time. Conrad Murray was there at the time of MJ's death, he must know what truly happend. Why doesn't he own up to his part in the death.

I have heard so many rumors started by the media. It is hard to know what is true and what is not true anymore. I agree we should all wait for the toxicology reports.

If this is really true, and he really did this - I hope he gets the fullest punishment possible - he killed the King of Pop.

Until we see the full reports from the medical examiner, we're all just guessing and pointing fingers. Wait for the facts and then pounce on the correct culpable person or people.

I said it here the minute I found out MJ died. The doc did it. He was there all along, so he most likely caused his death. And no one wanted to help MJ, only get his money, just like Elvis.

Not only was he responsible but so were the people who put him in charge of Michael and were paying his salary. I believe the tour promoter's are just as responsible as they would have done anything to keep Micheal going in order to get those 50 performances out of him. MONEY THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL! That is what killed poor Michael; too many vultures around him.
