7 minutes ago by TMZ Staff

Judge Michael Pastor ruled earlier this month that there is enough evidence to force Murray to stand trial.

Today's brief arraignment is part of the process.

The trial date is set for March 28.

If convicted, Murray faces a maximum of four years in prison.

By the way, we promised you we'd go live with the arraignment, but the technical wizards at KABC TV in Los Angeles couldn't find the right cables to plug in.

    Now they did not find the right cables to plug in... hmmm.
    Shouldn't happen to professionals, should it?

    Of course Murray is innocent! <!-- s:D -->:D<!-- s:D -->

    The trial date is set for March 28th...I thought it would take longer for that to get going. At least the summer - maybe it'll end in the summer.

    TMZ changed the article in the meantime including that "I am an innocent man" and "not guilty" phrases, emphasising that CM pleaded not guilty?

    Dr. Conrad Murray just pled not guilty to involuntary manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson ... telling the judge, "I am an innocent man."

    When the judge asked Murray for his plea, he said, "Your Honor, I am an innocent man," adding, "I therefore plead not guilty."

    Judge Michael Pastor ruled earlier this month that there is enough evidence to force Murray to stand trial.

    Today's brief arraignment is part of the process.

    The trial date is set for March 28.

    If convicted, Murray faces a maximum of four years in prison.

    By the way, we promised you we'd go live with the arraignment, but the technical wizards at KABC TV in Los Angeles couldn't find the right cables to plug in -- they cover L.A. like no one.

    The "innocent man" remark reminds me of the Billy Joel song "An Innocent Man"

    Some people stay far away from the door
    If there's a chance of it opening up
    They hear a voice in the hall outside
    And hope that it just passes by

    Some people live with the fear of a touch
    And the anger of having been a fool
    They will not listen to anyone
    So nobody tells them a lie

    I know you're only protecting yourself
    I know you're thinking of somebody else
    Someone who hurt you
    But I'm not above
    Making up for the love
    You've been denying you could ever feel
    I'm not above doing anything
    To restore your faith if I can
    Some people see through the eyes of the old
    Before they ever get a look at the young
    I'm only willing to hear you cry
    Because I am an innocent man
    I am an innocent man
    Oh yes I am

    Some people say they will never believe
    Another promise they hear in the dark
    Because they only remember too well
    They heard somebody tell them before

    Some people sleep all alone every night
    Instead of taking a lover to bed
    Some people find that it's easier to hate
    Than to wait anymore

    I know you don't want to hear what I say
    I know you're gonna keep turning away
    But I've been there and if I can survive
    I can keep you alive
    I'm not above going through it again
    I've not above being cool for a while
    If you're cruel to me I'll understand

    Some people run from a possible fight
    Some people figure they can never win
    And although this is a fight I can lose
    The accused is an innocent man
    I am an innocent man
    Oh yes I am
    An innocent man

    You know you only hurt yourself out of spite
    I guess you'd rather be a martyr tonight
    That's your decision
    But I'm not below
    Anybody I know
    If there's a chance of resurrecting a love
    I'm not above going back to the start
    To find out where the heartache began

    Some people hope for a miracle cure
    Some people just accept the world as it is
    But I'm not willing to lay down and die
    Because I am an innocent man

    I am an innocent man
    Oh yes I am
    An innocent man

    OMG that Billy Joel song has this entire adventure written all over it. It mirrors the way things are going between Non BeLIEvers and BeLIEvers and also it hits on our feelings for loving Michael and caring about how this entire show plays out.

    And he will be convicted for manslaughter. But not homicide. Then defense will appeal, another time to wait.
    But if we believe Michael is dead, then it should be homicide, not manslaughter. But no one will dig that far, unless prosecution appeals. AND IF MICHAEL IS ALIVE, then he should appear right there with his story and camera tape?
    If Michael does not appear, then I don't know what to think. Then when? Maybe never.

    Oh my gosh...this takes us back to the first court proceedings with the taxi, etc. Now, we have the white bunny (magic). This is great. I also saw in the TMZ picture that there is a poster in the chair...what is on that poster? Is it of an airplane? The colors are red and yellow <!-- s:) -->:)<!-- s:) -->

    After seeing Ms Katherine's interview, this has lifted my spirits. Blessings!

    Michael Jackson case: Dr. Conrad Murray pleads not guilty [Updated]

    Michael Jackson’s personal physician described himself as “an innocent man” during a Los Angeles Superior Court hearing Tuesday in which a judge set a March date for his trial in the pop star’s death.

    Asked how he pleaded to the charge of involuntary manslaughter, Dr. Conrad Murray began, “Your honor, I am an innocent man -- "

    “What’s your plea?” Judge Michael Pastor interrupted.

    “Therefore, I plead not guilty,” Murray said.

    The physician, who faces a maximum of four years in prison, surprised the judge by invoking his right to a speedy trial, meaning the case would have to begin by March 28.

    Pastor remarked on the rarity of a defendant invoking his speedy-trial right but set jury selection for March 28. The judge said his “inclination” was to allow television coverage of the trial, which the defense said was likely to last two months.

    Jackson died June 25, 2009, from an overdose of the surgical anesthetic propofol, which Murray told police he had been using to treat the singer’s chronic insomnia.

    Murray’s attorneys said at a preliminary hearing earlier this month that there was evidence Jackson injected or drank a fatal amount of the drug when the physician wasn’t looking.

    [For the record, 9:49 a.m.: A previous version of this post incorrectly stated the case would have to begin by March 2 for Murray to receive his right to a speedy trial.]

    [For the record, 10:15 a.m.: An earlier version of this post incorrectly reported the date of Jackson's death as June 29, 2009.]

  • hi, fellow beLIEvers, I thought one think:

    A pink panther at court it reminds me of the INSPECTOR CLUSEAU’S CLUES by DOVE <!-- m -->http://mjawakening.wordpress.com/category/clues/<!-- m -->

    and the parallel coincidence of:
    25/01/11 Murray at court says: I AM INNOCENT MAN

    25/01/10 when DOVE announces his final message: THE GREATES SHOW ON EARTH!

    Remember, a while ago, lyrics, handwritten by Michael surfaced, titled Innocent Man.

    I'm at work, so I can't find them- but I will do so later.

    Omg- the Barnum Connection just put me on my butt!!!

    And the bunny...what a day!

    They sure are fast. They have had lots of time for practice in making hoax vids.

    This is what is odd to me also: When the judge was reading the charge he started to say on or about... but didn't finish his sentence and give the date of June 25th 2009.

    Murray did not stand up nor did his attorneys when addressing the court while pleading "Your honor I am an Innocent man"... Every time I have appeared before a judge I always stand and so does my lawyer, it is a sign of respect.

    Peace
