courthouse

LOS ANGELES — Dozens of Michael Jackson fans are rallying outside a Los Angeles courthouse where the pop star’s doctor has a hearing in his involuntary manslaughter case.

The fans, singing “We are the World,” wore T-shirts emblazoned with Jackson’s picture and the slogan, “Justice for Michael.” They also carried placards demanding stronger charges against Dr. Conrad Murray in Jackson’s death.

Some fans say they came from as far as the Netherlands and France and brought a huge banner signed by fan club members in Europe. They say they remain devoted to Jackson’s musical legacy and will not be satisfied unless Murray goes to prison. If convicted, Murray could face a maximum of four years behind bars.

The court agenda Monday included assigning a judge for the case.

    This group must comprise mainly of the unemployment people in the US. I still think there time would be better spent, retraining themselves.

    I wish people would get over it already. Your acquitted child-molester hero is dead. He’s not coming back, and 12-year-old white boys all over the world are safer because of it. Take comfort in that…

    Why are they trying to blame Conrad Murray for something he was paid to do?
    MJ wanted that medicine.
    MJ wanted to take the medicine.
    Why blame Murray for something MJ wanted to do to himself?
    If anything, why not blame the family for not being there with him and for him as they should have. With all due respect to Janet she stated that they tried an intervention with him- apparently they didn’t try hard enough.
    Leave Murray alone and go after the family for allowing this happen to him.
    MJ will NEVER be looked at as a child molester in my eyes- he will always be the best and the greatest entertainer in the world and the history of music.

    @ II Chronicles: I can ssure you Mike didn’t pay Conrad Murray to kill him.

    Conrad Murray is to blame because as a Doctor, he is charged with knowing and understanding how to properly administer Propofol. Like most patients, if your doctor tells you it’s ok to use a drug a certain way, you tend to rely on his/her advice…especially if you happen to be in despair for whatever reason (in Mike’s case, his inability to sleep).

    CLEARLY DR. MURRAY DID NOT KNOW HOW TO PROPERLY ADMINISTER OR USE THIS DRUG.

    I don’t really blame Mike, as much as I do the Doc. Dr. Murray should have never recommended the use of propofol, or should have refused any request by Mike (if any was made), to use this drug for the purpose of sleeping or resting. He was supposed to be the expert, the one with knowledge of the drug, now Mike.

    @LastManNotStandingTallAtALL:the only thing worse than a child molester, is a person willing to falsely accuse another of the same. Thousands of pages of FBI doc**ents from Surveillance on Mike confirmed what the Santa Barbara Jury concluded. No evidence whatsoever of child molestation. Just evidence of cowardly greed and persecution.

    Lazy mindedness is never an excuse. The facts are more than available, so there is no justification for not knowing the truth at this point. Your decision to repeat this known falsehood, makes you part of the lynch mob. Make no mistake about it…

    LastManStandingTall that statement you made was down right ignorant. If anyone in your family ever died like that, would you say “just get over it already their dead.” Yes we get that you weren’t a fan but my god have a heart for the people who are. All people want is justice for a man that influenced their lives in one way or another. I hope to god that no one ever chastise you or degrade or call you names because they think you did something you never did. Don’t throw stones cause you never know when it will be thrown back at you. Peace.
