Michael Jackson doctor charged with involuntary manslaughter

After spending the past eight
months since Michael Jackson's
death building a case--and the
past week playing will-they,
won't-they with the public--Los
Angeles prosecutors finally
believe they have enough
evidence to lay the blame on Dr.
Conrad Murray.
Not to mention finally managing
to keep a court date.
The district attorney formally
filed a misdemeanor count of
involuntary manslaughter against
Murray today, blaming Jackson's
personal physician with
overmedicating the star with the
powerful anesthetic propofol.
The charge carries a maximum of
four years in prison.
The court alleged that Murray "did
unlawfully, and without malice,
kill Michael Joseph Jackson...in the
commission of an unlawful act,
not amounting to a felony; and in
the commission of a lawful act
which might have produced
death, in an unlawful manner, and
without due caution and
circumspection."
