The saga continues
The verdict in the trial in the death of Michael Jackson has been in a little more than a few weeks old and now there is new drama. For now Dr. Conrad Murray is on suicide watch!
I watched, with a large portion of the world, the trial of Conrad Murray, the personal physician of Michael Jackson. The prosecution built an unshakable case which lead to the only logical concussion, guilty! Murray breached the medical conduct of care and put into motion the runaway train that killed Jackson.
Along with listening to all the facts surrounding the death of Jackson, I watched the demeanor of Murray. He looked like a deer caught in headlights. Even as stoic as he was, I felt as he listened. it finally hit home just how badly he had messed up.
The really telling moment was after the verdict and once the judge refused him bail, it all came down on Murray. His life as he once knew it was over. Really over. He is now a convicted felon and will soon lose his prized doctor’s license. Everything he had worked so hard for, for so many years has been lost.
I am sure this past week he feels there is no way out. Sitting on the medical ward on a death watch, Conrad’s life is in shambles from which there is no return.
