Jackson doctor trial to focus on phone records

Prosecutors in the manslaughter trial against Michael Jackson's personal physician are keeping jurors focused on the doctor's phone records from the day the King of Pop died.

Authorities aim to show that Dr Conrad Murray was trying to juggle his medical practice, personal life and superstar patient all at once.

Evidence yesterday centred on calls Murray made and received on June 25, 2009, with witnesses ranging from the cardiologist's patients, a colleague and a woman who had dated Murray.

Jurors have yet to hear from two other women with whom Murray was romantically involved, though both could testify as early as today.

Murray has pleaded not guilty. Authorities contend he gave the singer a lethal dose of propofol and other sedatives.

Murray's lawyers claim Jackson gave himself the fatal dose.
