Jackson jury starts deliberations
The case of Michael Jackson’s doctor was placed in a jury’s hands after contentious legal arguments over who was to blame for the superstar’s death - the celebrity who craved sleep at any cost or the doctor accused of providing the drugs that killed him.
In final statements delivered in a packed courtroom, a defence lawyer cast Dr Conrad Murray as a victim of Jackson’s celebrity, saying he never would have been charged with involuntary manslaughter if his patient was someone other than Jackson.
