Michael Jackson's Death Ruled Homicide: Micheal Suffered From Insomnia and was Given a Dangerous Sedative



On June 25, 2009, Michael Jackson suffered a cardiac arrest at his home in Los Angeles. Paramedics tried to save him, although once they reached the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, he was sadly pronounced dead. It wasn’t long before investigators started to wonder what really caused the death of this 50 year old legend.

Michael Jackson’s physician admitted to giving him a series of sedatives to help him sleep. After finding that the strong set of drugs were not working successfully, his doctor administered a powerful anesthetic called Propofol.

The Death of Michal Jackson Was Officially Ruled a Homicide

On August 28, 2009 the press released an announcement that the cause of death was in fact ruled a homicide. The Las Angeles County coroner’s office ruled that Michael Jackson’s death was primarily caused by both Lorazepam and Propofol.

One of these two powerful drugs (Propofol) is often only used in an operating room or Intensive Care Unit. The drug is mostly used to cause patients to be unconscious for surgeries, it is said that this drug is to be handled only by a professional Anesthesiologist. It also requires closely monitoring, at all times. It is unheard of for this type of sedative to be used for any type of insomnia.

The Las Vegas Cardiologist, Dr. Conrad Murray, has been interviewed by police officers, yet has not yet been charged for any type of crime. Although the ruling of homicide is now making this Las Vegas doctor a prime suspect for this manslaughter investigation.



It was said that Dr. Murray told investigators that within a time period of six long hours, he had injected Michael with two separate doses of Lorazepam, as well as Midazolam. After 10:40 a.m., Michael Jackson demanded that the doctor give him the powerful drug called Propofol. The doctor admitted to giving this potent sedative to Michael every single night for a total of six weeks, although he claimed to have diluted the Propofol with a drug called Lidocaine.

Doctor’s Convicted of Manslaughter

During the past several years, more and more doctors have been convicted of manslaughter. In order to successfully prosecute a doctor, it is essential that attorneys prove the act of recklessness and negligence against their patients. With the coroner coming to the conclusion of homicide, this may make it more easy for the charges to be successfully filed against Dr. Murray.

MJ Will Be Missed

Michael Jackson’s death was a tragedy and he will be remembered by the entire world.
