    It took me way too long to work out who MJ was.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,515 ✭✭✭LH Pathe


    Guess who was born yesterday..

    MJ means Mick Jones.

    Mick Jagger?

    I also wondered what MJS was? I thought it might have been some sort of new shopping centre.....

    Not guilty... Jackson knew what he was doing. Agreed, Murray succumbed to the money, but I don't think he should be held responsible for Jackson wanting to be 'numb'... Drugs to get up, Drugs to function, Drugs to sleep, was bound to happen eventually...

    Stop him being a doctor, no jail, timed served with revoking of licence.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 252 ✭✭tr0llface


    I only just realised Michael Jackson. And I personally believe that he did it without thinking that this would happen, and he did it because MJ asked him to.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    It was his duty to refuse Michael extra medication, but meh, who knows what mitigating circumstances there were.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,048 ✭✭✭Da Shins Kelly


    Like everyone in Michael Jackson's life, he was probably just another 'yes' man who just agreed with whatever he was told to do because he was getting paid well for it. I don't think he did it deliberately, but he's definitely guilty of negligence. I reckon he'll go down for it anyway.

    He didn't want to be numb as you put it, he wanted to sleep.

    What Murray did was totally wrong sure even the doctor for the defence had to admit he would never leave a patient alone that had been given Propofol, and it was unheard of to give it to someone in their bedroom.

    No blood pressure machine or heart monitor, plus he gave CPR when there was nothing wrong with MJ's heart, he just couldn't breathe.

    Definitely guilty of gross negligence for a start, the defence would not even go there.

    Had he just said NO to the Propofol we wouldn't be discussing this now.

    He's BAD!

    Used as a scapegoat so the family will feel better about themselves that they'll have someone to blame, when in reality they didn't give a **** about Jackson when he needed them most.

    I see what you mean and I hate the media/fans take on him as some sort of twisted angel of death, but at the same time, a doctor is bound by a professional and ethical code - why didn't he comply with it? Pressure from Jackson isn't a good enough excuse I'd assume.

    Surely anticipation of accusations of racism would shield the good Doctor so?

    Celebrities, because they have the power, they always get what they want...
    Agreed Murray should have said no, but he didn't...
    What was Murray to do, stay with jackson 24/7, that is what propofol requires a doctor to do.... Sorry I don't agree, Jackson was a clever man, as seen in many interviews... He would have been aware of the consequences of using such a powerful sedative. He requested the use of this drug to go to sleep!!! How many issues does one have to have to want to be put under to sleep??? I stand by my opinion, drugs to sleep/wake/function/sleep/wake (repeat to fade) literally

    I say strike him off, he is deserving of that, as I have said already...
    Jail, no, I don't think he deserves jail, taking his licence will stop him from doing something like this to someone else, but in all fairness, I think, Jacksons case was fairly unique... No likely he (Murray) would come up against this again.

    ironically, had he called the ambulance, he probably still, at least, have suffered brain damage, and eventually would have died, and Murray would still be in the same situation as now.

    yeah. His fame was preposterously big in pop cultures peak it could only happen again if it were contrived. like for a world record attempt or something so put it to bed already kids... For no-one will bat an eyelid.

    Then you would be in the same boat as Murray, other doctors at the trial admitted he was wrong, the fact that you don't agree does not make you right.

    I would go so far as to say they know what they are talking about,no?

    He trusted Murray knew what he was doing, and he had been given Propofol by Murray for some time to get him to sleep.

    AFAIK he had had a 16 hour rehearsal for the tour and still couldn't sleep, there could have been other issues for all I know but I'm not Murray, whatever he was told he should never have agreed to the Propofol.

    But you have to ask yourself why would he panic?

    The hospital is minutes away from Jackson's house yet he started CPR when there was nothing wrong with Michael's heart, no heart monitor.....that says a lot tbh as it would have given a clear indication that the heart wasn't the problem.

    He panicked imo because he knew he was fcuked, when the paramedics did get there and asked what meds Micheal was on Murray failed to mention the Propofol and again at the hospital when the doctors asked about his medication he again omitted to tell them he was treating him with the drug.

    The defence said it was a detail overlooked on Murray's part.:rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,030 ✭✭✭✭Chuck Stone


    Just read up what Propofol was and it sounds very more-ish. You can't be giving civilians that shit all the time if you're a doc, surely?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 469 ✭✭geetar


    this case is easy as one, two three.
    jacksons idea of Dont stop till you get enough, was Bad.

    MJ couldnt Beat it, he loved the way it made him feel.

    Dangerous habits were in his Human nature, that being said, if you think Dr.Murray is a Smooth criminal, You are not alone.

    I'm sorry, we are discussing whether Murray is guilty and what is he guilty of.

    I am not in the same boat as Murray, I happen to think based on what I have seen in the media, that being the news medias' version of what has happened and the court case, that Murray deserves to be STRUCK OFF.

    The other doctors in the court gave their opinion he was wrong but they were not in the situation, what else are they going to say about a serious drug, like propofol, being given to a client to SLEEP???? Murray was wrong, I have stated that, re read my posts.... I am not disputing that...
    What we are discussing here is whether Murray is guilty or not.

    I have said, I think he should be struck off for his part in the case, but he still does not deserve to go to jail... He did not intentionally set out to kill Michael Jackson.
    Striking him off makes sure that he is not in a position to abuse his access to drugs, in the future.

    Hot Lips wrote: »

    Jackson was extremely clever, he was known for it in his business dealings.
    There is no way, he would not have gone through the pros and cons of taking such a drug as propofol.

    Hot Lips wrote: »

    Whilst I agree he should have been able to trust Murray, what kind of problems do you have to have to take an anaesthetic to sleep??

    100% agreed.
    And you can bet there were other issues, otherwise it just doesn't add up!

    He did it.
    He didn't even know what Propofol was before he got the job.
    He didn't know basic cpr.?

    Also if I c&p what you said to most of posts here I would have some hell of a post count.

    "While Michael Jackson was frustrated because he could not sleep, frustrated because his doctor refused to give him a drug that he preferred, that he wanted, he did an act without his doctor's knowledge, without his doctor's permission," Chernoff said.
    He also claimed that Jackson took the final dose of propofol without Murray’s permission.
    "There was no CPR, no doctor, no paramedic, no machine that was going to revive Michael Jackson," Chernoff said. "He died so rapidly, so instantly, he didn't have time to close his eyes."

    i don't follow...

    The drunk driver, takes the keys of his car, and gets into the car, that car becomes a dangerous vehicle. If the driver kills somebody, yes they are responsible and should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

    If a taxi driver kills somebody whilst working, there has to be a set of circumstances... Give me the circumstances and then I'll tell you what I think.

    With the drink driver, the minute they put the keys in ignition and drive off, they deserve everything they get.

    This whole trial is another media driven load of crap. The doctor is probably guilty of some negligence and should get his license revoked or what not but seriously the person that killed MJ was f****g MJ.

    The man was a freak of nature for Christ sake, one could go on for hours about the weirdo.
    If the family are looking for someone to blame, why don't they look in the mirror, family are the ones supposed to be the ones looking out for you.

    Someone must be responsible, someone must go to jail, and if not Murray, Who is it? He tried to hide the evidence, he put stuff In the closet. Remember the time he called the ambulance was much later, MJ had already Gone too soon when the ambulance had Got to be there. MJ took a lot of Dangerous drugs, perhaps even LSD or PYT, who knows. You can say say say what you want, the jury will decide, They don't really care about us or our opinions, but the time has come for a verdict, this is it.

    Why must someone go to jail ? What kind of logic is that. In reality if found guilty he will probably not serve any time anyway.

    The whole thing is a circus just like MJ's life.
