Doctor wants 'highly prejudicial' autopsy pictures out of Jackson trial

Dr Conrad Murray wants to prevent photographs from Michael Jackson’s “gruesome” autopsy being admitted during his trial.

Lawyers for the accused medic - who is due to stand trial for the involuntary manslaughter of the 'Thriller' hitmaker, after he died of acute Propofol intoxication in June 2009 while under the physician's care – have asked the judge to allow only an oral description of the post-mortem examination because the pictures are “highly prejudicial”.
