Michael Jackson’ doctor trial: the jury has reached a verdict
The twelve jurors in the trial of Conrad Murray have completed their deliberations and reached a verdict that is set to be announced today.
The verdict will be announced in the Los Angeles Superior Courtroom at 1 p.m. local time on Monday.
The seven men and five women of the jury agreed on the verdict on the second day of their deliberations.
Dr. Murray, a cardiologist, 58, was charged with involuntary manslaughter. If convicted, he risks up to four years in prison.
In the six-week trial, the defense claimed that Jackson had injected the fatal dose of propofol himself.
The prosecution tried to convince the jury that such a scenario was unlikely and that Murray recklessly administered the powerful anesthetic.
