Dr. Murray's Medical Comeback After Jackson's Death

0:00It's April 25th, this is entertainment and celebrity news, AI-powered stories from the world of fame. I'm Cory with the story. Dr. Conrad Murray got convicted of involuntary manslaughter back in 2011 for his part in Michael Jackson's death from a fatal dose of the anesthetic propylfall. He served just under two years in prison and got released in 2013 for time served, even though his sentence was four years. Murray first met Jackson in 2006 through a friend who needed help for Jackson's daughter Paris in Las Vegas. They hit it off and by 2009, Jackson hired him as his personal doctor for the vices at tour, paying him $150,000 dollars a month while Murray faced money troubles at home. The trial painted Murray as grossly negligent for giving propylfall without proper gear and delaying the 911 call by over an hour. He always said Jackson gave himself the dose, but the jury didn't buy it and his licenses got suspended or revoked in California, Texas, and Nevada.

1:03After prison, Murray kept pushing to practice medicine, filing appeals and even doing free consults in Florida. Colleagues in the U.S. shut them out, so he headed back to his home country of Trinidad and Tobago. In May 2023, he finally opened the DCM Medical Institute there after fighting local medical board issues and practicing at a nursing home. He's still calling himself innocent and committed to helping patients, showing no signs of quitting the field anytime soon.
