Michael Jackson’s doctor has been arraigned this morning (January 25) on an involuntary manslaughter charge, it has been reported.
Dr Conrad Murray is accused of administering Jackson with a lethal dose of the anaesthetic propofol on the day that he died in June 2009.
''Michael is not with us today because of an utterly inept, incompetent, reckless doctor — the defendant Conrad Murray," Los Angeles County,'' Los Angeles County deputy district attorney David Walgren told MTV.
Dr Murray, who has pleaded not guilty, has admitted giving the King Of Pop the drug but said he did not give the star enough to kill him.
Dr Murray, who was working with Jackson ahead of his ill-fated comeback gigs, could face four years in prison if convicted.
