Overview
Michael Jackson’s doctor is to stand trial for involuntary manslaughter over the singer’s death, a judge has said.
The decision came at the end of a six-day preliminary hearing in Los Angeles.
Dr Conrad Murray is accused of administering Jackson with a lethal dose of the anaesthetic propofol on the day that he died in June 2009.
Dr Murray, who has pleaded not guilty, has admitted giving the King Of Pop the drug but said he did not give the star enough to kill him.
The preliminary hearing included testimonies from detectives and paramedics.
Dr Murray, who was working with Jackson ahead of his ill-fated comeback gigs, could face four years in prison if convicted.
