Doctor Conrad Murray pled not guilty today when he was charged with Involuntary Manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson at his arraignment hearing. Involuntary manslaughter carries a maximum of 4 years in prison.
Dr. Murray will be booked into jail today, and bail was set by judge at $75,000, which is three times the normal bail schedule, but much less than the $300,000 the district attorney requested. The judge ordered Dr. Murray must surrender his passport to the court, restricted Murray’s medical license whereas he cannot use anesthetic agents such as propofol or heavy sedatives that would be given by an anesthesiologist to put a patient to sleep.
Murray appear again before the court on April 5, 2010.
