Defense Drops Claim That MJ Orally Ingested Fatal Propofol
Defense Drops Claim That MJ Orally Ingested Fatal Propofol<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Dr. Conrad Murray's lawyer announced in court this AM that Murray is abandoning the argument that Michael Jackson accidentally killed himself by orally self-administering Propofol.<br /><br />Michael Flanagan said in court today that an independent study by the defense showed swallowing Propofol would not produce fatal results.<br /><br />Associated Press initially reported that Murray's lawyers were dropping the claim that MJ self-administered the fatal dose, but that is not accurate.<br /><br />Lead lawyer, Ed Chernoff, said in opening statements that they would show MJ self-administered the drug. Chernoff can still argue that MJ injected the fatal dose after awakening and becoming frustrated.<br /><br />http://www.tmz.com/2011/10/12/conrad-murray-michael-jackson-manslaughter-trial-defense-ed-chernoff-propofol-lawyers-drop-claim-singer-self-administered-fatal-dose-dead-dies-defense/?adid=hero1#.TpaTik-Rkyd<br />
