If prosecutors have their way ...Conrad Murray will stay locked up, even though an appeals court could reverse his manslaughter conviction in the death of Michael Jackson.
but prosecutors are quick to point out ... he has 7 kids with 5 women, which does not exactly make him the poster child of stability
Obviously CM was innocent because MJ's alive, but MJ's trying to prove a point with this hoax.
LOS ANGELES — A judge who presided over the trial of Michael Jackson’s doctor refused Friday to release him on bail, saying he would be a danger to any community where he might try to practice medicine. Conrad Murray’s lawyer asked for his release pending appeal of his involuntary manslaughter conviction, but Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor said he saw little chance that Murray would prevail in getting his case overturned. Pastor made it clear that his view of Murray had not softened since he gave him a tongue-lashing and the maximum four-year sentence in the superstar’s death. He suggested Murray hurt his own chances for freedom in a documentary interview broadcast after the trial saying use of the powerful anesthetic propofol in the home was appropriate. Jackson died in 2009 of an overdose of the drug that Murray administered in his bedroom as a treatment for insomnia. Expert witnesses testified they never heard of anyone administering the drug outside a hospital. “I didn’t tell Dr. Murray to give an interview for a documentary,” the judge said. “When he did, I listened to it and saw it and I was concerned about his attitude toward the use of propofol in the home. ... What he believes scares me.” Pastor also believes Murray, who was born and raised in the Caribbean, would pose a flight risk if he leaves jail. He said the doctor could go to a foreign country that might allow him to practice medicine, and anyone encountering him as a patient would be in danger.“He was raised in Trinidad and has seven children by five women in different parts of the country, which does not reflect well on his stability,” Deputy District Attorney David Walgren argued during the hearing. Defense attorney J. Michael Flanagan petitioned for Murray to be released on bail, his own recognizance or under house arrest with an electronic ankle bracelet. He and appellate attorney Valerie Wass said Murray should be free during his appeal. The judge, however, said the defense has not shown there is any substantial legal question likely to result in reversal of the verdict. “No trial is perfect,” the judge said, but nothing cited by Flanagan rises to the level of legal error. Flanagan and Wass said the appeal issues would include Pastor’s refusal to sequester the jury and his decision to allow broadcast of the trial. Pastor said he is confident those rulings and others were legally sound. He also said he would not reconsider the bail request in the future. “This is my last statement on this matter,” he said. Under current sentencing guidelines, Murray is likely to serve about half of his four-year term. Outside court, Flanagan said Murray had lost at least 30 pounds since he went to jail Nov. 7. He said he is held in a single, five-by-eight foot cell with few chances to exercise or go outside. Murray is considered a high-risk prisoner because of his notoriety. Wass said she visited Murray and found him in remarkably good spirits.Read more: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

Quote MMcParland Michael McParland A very fair documentary. It gave CM the chance to give his version of events in response to charge, and he manifestly failed to take it.
The media was putting out all those stories portraying CM as a loving good doc, while the trial 'proved' he was guilty of manslaughter.However, during MJ's 2005 trial, the media was putting out stories portraying MJ as a bad guilty person, while the trial proved he was innocent.
I could almost swear to God, that these two pictures are not of the same Murray!! My mother always tells me that the nose is the best impersonator detector! Even the ears look different in both photos!
This situation does seem to take us back to the 2005 trial, again. And wasn't MJ considered a flight risk too?
