Overview
The doctor charged with Michael Jackson's involuntary manslaughter is due to go on trial today (September 27).
Dr Conrad Murray was working with Jackson ahead of his ill-fated comeback gigs in London. He has pleaded not guilty to the charge.
Jackson's prosecutors have said Dr Murray gave the King Of Pop a lethal dose of the sedative propofol, which is normally used ahead of surgery.
Dr Murray's defence are expected to say that Jackson gave himself too much of the drug, leading to his sudden death in June 2009.
Fans of Jackson will be able to watch the trial as it unfolds online, while hundreds are also expected at the court room in Los Angeles.
If found guilty, Dr Murray could be jailed for four years.
