Are they still picking the jury on May 4th?I really feel there will be no trial...I think MJ will BAM suddenly in the next couple of months.
Read this article on the trial..Trial of Michael Jackson doctor delayed until SeptAPBy LINDA DEUTSCH, AP Special Correspondent – 58 mins agoThe long-awaited trial of the doctor charged in Michael Jackson's drug death was delayed Monday for four months, with a judge saying defense lawyers needed additional preparation time to effectively represent their client.Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor said he was more concerned with justice for Dr. Conrad Murray than with the speed of the proceedings.Murray, who had insisted on a speedy trial, waived that right and agreed to start jury selection anew on Sept. 8. Lawyers estimated opening statements would begin Sept. 20.Attorneys for Murray filed a motion Sunday complaining about the last-minute addition of expert witnesses to the prosecution case and saying they needed at least two weeks to find experts of their own and have them prepare reports.They also are trying to get raw footage from Jackson's posthumous concert movie, "This Is It." Prosecutors plan to use clips to show Jackson was in good health just before he died.Pastor said he did not think two weeks was sufficient for the defense to accomplish its goalsSo the judge gave them more time..way beyond the 2 weeks they ask for. Looks like our team is needing more time for "their witnesses" .Prospective jurors who filled out questionnaires and were to return to court Tuesday will be thanked and told their services are no longer needed, the judge said.Couldn't find jurors, then the ones they DID find, they now let go!!"The court is very mindful of judicial efficiency and the expense that has occurred in this case," Pastor said. "But first and foremost is justice ... The continuance in this case is absolutely essential."Exactly..first and foremost is justice!! ....lala...Pastor said he didn't like the idea of picking a new jury but said it was "preferable to having this continuing drama."LOVE this...continuing drama!!! Pick a new jury over continuing drama?? So, they'll have to find a NEW jury and then the drama continues...Deputy District Attorney David Walgren said he had no objection to a delay. He had been urging a later start date all along.Murray has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter. He is accused of negligence in administering the hospital anesthetic propofol to Jackson in his home. The superstar singer died June 25, 2009, of an overdose of propofol coupled with other sedatives.The Murray defense has posed the theory that Jackson, who was desperate for sleep, swallowed more propofol than the doctor gave him. The drug normally is administered intravenously.The prosecution presented new reports last week from two experts who say it's impossible to overdose by taking the drug orally because it would not be absorbed into the intestines.Murray, who had been adamant about wanting a trial within 60 days of his preliminary hearing, was asked by the judge if he was giving up that right to allow his lawyers to effectively represent him."Yes," Murray said. "I believe it's in the best interest of all parties."And we can just now guess who all his interested parties are!!"But do you feel it is in your best interest?" asked the judge."Yes," said the defendant.Pastor said he planned to keep the case "on a short leash" and set a progress hearing on June 3.Just what is a short leash? I'm watching you???___

Quote from: "GINAFELICIA"Quote from: "Kristina4LOVE"Great! Just Great!Now we have nothing else to do than solve TS's puzzles. pale/ They delayed the trial because we couldn't solve the puzzles crash/Thant's what i think. But it's not like WE ARE THE REASON THE TRIAL WAS DELAYED, but i think there is a little something to it.I remember TS saying somewhere that during trial he will not be bothering us with all his questions and theories to debunk, because we'll have much important things to follow and talk about. And when today he gave us a new puzzle to solve "The Sting" even though we didn't have any solid conclusions on previous levels, I thought that something is wrong. Because trial was supposed to be on May 9th, in less than a week, sure it's not enough time to solve all these unanswered questions of his. And when i saw the delay of trial, i was not even a little bit surprised, i knew that something was going to happen. suspicious// It sounds VERY CRAZY even in my own head, but that was my first thought. GOD PLEASE HELP US!!! bow/

What if they postponing the trial cause it never meant to be happen.....It seems quite that, how much time did they need to accuse Murray in the first place? More than a year, if i remember right, but please help me out if i'm wrong here. And since the beginning he plays the totally innnocent guy, walking around and even working freely and happily.... I'm looking forward to this July or summer anyway, not too much cause it can happen nothing on Earth again....Then we have to wait September out and who knows how much more so..... confused/ I guess there's a reason why we have to learn this much patience. But for now i'm beginning to feel the trial won't going to happen.
any response from the family on this?
we share the same frustrations in seeing the trial delayed until Sept -- it is a hindrance not a set-backour focus remains on the horizon where we see justice, not the clocks on the wall. thank you for your prayers & support
