Jackson Doctor Denied Bail
(AP)— A Los Angeles judge has refused to release Michael
Jackson's doctor on bail while he appeals his conviction for
involuntary manslaughter in the pop star’s death.
Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor rejected Conrad
Murray's bid for bail Friday. Murray was not present.
Pastor says Murray is a flight risk and would be a danger to
society if he tries to practice medicine again.
The judge says he was scared when he heard Murray say
during a documentary interview that he thought it was permis
sible to give the anesthetic propofol in a home setting.
Jackson died of an overdose of the drug in June 2009, while
in Murray's care.
