As expected, Dr. Conrad Murray, the former personal physician of the late Michael Jackson, has hired a criminal defense attorney to help with the potential manslaughter prosecution after giving the pop icon too many harmful drugs.
The lawyer, Michael Flanagan of Glendale, has been involved in a similar case where a nurse was charged with manslaughter for administering the same drug thought to have killed Jackson: propofol. She was acquitted.
The trial date is still up in the air. In fact, the district attorney's office has stated that no decision has been made in Murray's case, although the doctor is listed on filed search warrant documents as the target for a manslaughter probe.
As for a jury? Murray's lawyers said that if one had been chosen yet, they haven't heard of it.
