Conrad Murray claims that "financial condition" killed Michael Jackson

Back in November, Conrad Murray, the doctor found guilty of involuntary manslaughter for the death of Michael Jackson, has been given the maximum sentence of four years in prison. Now, Murray has filed new legal documents asking for his sentence to be overturned claiming that financial stress was the cause of Michael Jackson’s death. According to his lawyers, the judge should have Murray allowed to present evidence proving that the MJ was so stressed and concerned about his finances that he self-administered a fatal dose of Propofol.

“Mr. Jackson was in debt approximately $440 million and desperately needed to fulfill a contractual commitment at the O2 arena in London. He was on the verge of losing his entire estate to foreclosure. The pressure to fight through his insomnia, to rehearse and be the entertainer he was in his earlier years was overwhelming. His motivation and resulting desperation were relevant to show a likelihood or reason to act in a manner inconsistent with good judgment.”
