Michael jackson was killed by his doctor

Well-supported — high-quality sources agree

What we can confirm

Authoritative medical and legal records show that Michael Jackson’s personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, administered the anesthetic propofol and other sedatives to Jackson in a home setting, leading to acute propofol (and sedative) intoxication, cardiac arrest, and death; the Los Angeles County coroner ruled the death a homicide, and Murray was subsequently convicted of involuntary manslaughter for criminal negligence in his treatment, so in the legal/medical sense his doctor was held responsible for causing Jackson’s death, though not for intentional murder.
