The Jackson Trial Continues Day 4
Dr. Richelle Cooper made it clear in court today that when Michael Jackson arrived to the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center he had signs of a dying heart.
Dr. Cooper stated that Murray informed him of Jackson’s arrest came after he gave him two doses of Lorazepam, a sedative, Cooper testified.
He did not mention any other drugs, including propofol, which the coroner ruled played a major role in Jackson’s death.
Prosecutors argue Murray, who was Jackson’s personal physician as he prepared for planned comeback concerts, was criminally responsible for his death because of medical negligence and his reckless use of the surgical anesthetic propofol to help the pop icon sleep.
The coroner ruled that Jackson’s June 25, 2009, death was the result of “acute propofol intoxication” in combination with sedatives.
