Michael Jackson's Death Ruled a Homocide
August 25, 2009
The Los Angeles County coroner ruled that the death of Michael Jackson was indeed a homicide, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press on August 24, speaking on condition of anonymity because the findings have not been publicly released.
The homicide ruling was based on forensic tests that found the anesthetic propofol combined with at least two sedatives in Jackson's system.
This could result in criminal charges for his doctor, who told investigators that he administered a mix of powerful drugs to treat the pop star's insomnia hours before his death.
Although the evidence does not prove a crime was committed, it means more likely that Dr. Conrad Murray, the Las Vegas cardiologist who was caring for Jackson when he died June 25 in a rented Los Angeles mansion, will be brought before the courts.
Murray released a video last week saying, "he told the truth and I have faith truth will prevail."
Jackson will be buried on September 3 instead of August 29, which would have been the entertainer's 51st birthday. He will be laid to rest in The Great Mausoleum at Forest Lawn Memorial-Parks and Mortuaries.
