Jackson 'killed by drug cocktail'

The use of a cocktail of drugs on Michael Jackson as he struggled to fall asleep was a “recipe for disaster” and ultimately caused his death, a sleep therapy expert said.

Dr Nader Kamanger described Dr Conrad Murray’s treatment as “unethical, disturbing and beyond comprehension” at the trial of the cardiologist accused of the involuntary manslaughter of the pop megastar in June 2009. Murray denies the charge.
