Report: Michael Jackson's Doctor to Be Charged With Manslaughter

Breaking news in the case of Michael Jackson’s physician, Dr. Conrad Murray. According to a new report, he will be charged with manslaughter within the next two weeks.

A law enforcement source initially told Fox News that the arrest could be made as soon as next Wednesday, but investigators have decided to wait so that they can execute another search warrant, supposedly at a Los Angeles pharmacy.

Murray is not the sole focus of the investigation. Michael’s longtime dermatologist Dr. Arnold Klein will reportedly be charged with medical malpractice. Investigators are still building their case against Klein, and sources say his arrest will come shortly after Murray’s.

Despite these claims, the LAPD is still keeping their investigation under wraps. A spokesperson for the LAPD Jane Robinson said in a statement, “Until police complete their investigation and bring it to our office, there is no way to know what charges may be filed and against whom.”

In related news, Dr. Murray’s YouTube video that surfaced yesterday is being called a publicity stunt. Former Broward County prosecutor Kenneth Padowitz said, “This was a total PR stunt. I think what they’re trying to do is humanize him, trying to make him seem like this is somebody that maybe you could know and this is not a bad guy—that’s what they’re trying to do. And for that limited purpose, it probably was effective….Is it a transparent attempt to get feelings in his favor? Yeah. It’s a gimmick.”

We’ll have to stay tuned in the next couple weeks, but things are likely to start getting very interesting in this case!
