Conrad Murray Ordered To Testify In Michael Jackson’s Wrongful Death Suit

Disgraced doctor Conrad Murray has been ordered to testify in Michael Jackson’s wrongful death lawsuit.
In 2010, the tragic star’s mom, Katherine Jackson, filed a lawsuit against chiefs at AEG, the company behind her son’s doomed comeback shows in London, claiming they were negligent in ignoring life-threatening health concerns that were going on behind closed doors at the Thriller hitmaker’s rented Los Angeles mansion.
Now a U.S. judge has agreed to let Murray testify in the case following comments he made about a handful of concert promoters, and the King of Pop in a TV documentary that aired in America just before he was jailed.
The disgraced medic claimed AEG owned “the toilet paper he (Jackson) wipes his a** with” and “the f**kin’ popsicles that his children are sucking on”. He also stated that promoters had placed a great deal of pressure on his weak patient, adding they told him, “if he doesn’t get the show done he’s over.”
Jackson died shortly before the first of a run of This Is It concerts was scheduled to hit the stage in London.
The jailed physician, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for administering the fatal dose of Propofol which cost Jackson his life in June, 2009, is set to take the stand next month, according to TMZ.com.
Murray originally fought the call to testify, but he has been subpoenaed to appear in court.
Jackson’s mother hopes Murray’s testimony will help her convince a jury that AEG bosses played a part in her son’s demise by hiring the reckless doctor to care for him.

Conrad Murray ordered to meet with Katherine Jackson's lawyers
By Alan Duke, CNN
February 21, 2013 -- Updated 1847 GMT (0247 HKT)
Los Angeles (CNN) -- A judge has ordered Dr. Conrad Murray to meet with Katherine Jackson's lawyers next month for a deposition in her wrongful death lawsuit against concert promoter AEG Live.
The lawsuit, which is set for trial in April, accuses AEG Live of causing the death of Katherine Jackson's son, Michael Jackson, by pressuring him to prepare for his 2009 comeback concerts while he was in fragile health.
The suit, filed on behalf of Michael Jackson's mother and three children, says that AEG Live executives hired and supervised Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in Jackson's death.
Murray lawyer Valerie Wass, who unsuccessfully objected to the deposition, said the decision disappointed her. Wass said she would advise Murray to invoke his Fifth Amendment right to not answer questions.
"But Dr. Murray has a mind of his own," Wass said. "If he decided to answer a question, those parties don't know what he's going to say."
The videotaped deposition is set to take place on March 18 in the Los Angeles County jail where Murray has been serving his sentence since November 2011.
Murray, who was the pop superstar's personal physician, has never been questioned under oath about Jackson's death. He did not testify at his trial.
