Michael Jackson killed himself

According to Dr. Conrad Murray, he didn’t administer the lethal dose of Propofol that killed Michael Jackson, Michael Jackson administered the lethal dose of Propofol that killed Michael Jackson. TMZ proposes that the defense strategy will go like this:

– At around 10:50 AM, Dr. Murray gave Jackson 25 mg of Propofol from a 20 ml bottle — that’s only about 1/8 of the bottle.

– The dose Dr. Murray administered would keep someone asleep for only 5 to 10 minutes, but the Propofol, along with the Ativan and Versed that was already in MJ’s system, had a synergistic effect that put Jackson to sleep for a longer period of time.

– For the next hour, Dr. Murray stayed in the room and was on the phone for much of the time. Dr. Murray didn’t leave the room to make the calls because MJ liked activity in the room, regularly sleeping with the lights on and cartoons blaring on the TV.

– At around noon, Dr. Murray left the room for approximately two minutes to go to the bathroom. While he was gone, the defense believes Jackson suddenly awakened and was frustrated he had spent nearly 9 hours trying in vain to sleep. The defense theory — Jackson took the 20 ml bottle of Propofol and self-injected the remaining contents through the IV, causing a massive overdose that stopped his heart.

– Dr. Murray walked back in the room and saw Jackson with his eyes open and pupils dilated. Dr. Murray dropped the phone (he was speaking with his girlfriend) and began administering CPR.

Murray is accused of hiding bottles of Porpofol before paramedics arrived, but the defense will argue that if that was the case, there wouldn’t be that last empty bottle of Propofol on the floor. To convince the jurors, the defense will also include an artist rendering of what happened. It’s basically a stick figure picture of Michael Jackson holding a bottle of Propofol with a needle sticking out of his arm and he has X’s for eyes. There’s also a tank in the background because tanks are rad.
