Are the jury members MJ fans?
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Prospective members of a jury that will weigh the case against Michael Jackson’s doctor are being asked if they had ever seen the King of Pop, attended his concerts, or knew members of his family.
A juror questionnaire containing 117 questions was released last Thursday after prospects who said they could serve on the two-month trial of Dr. Conrad Murray finished answering. Murray has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter. He is accused of gross negligence for administering the anesthetic propofol and other sedatives to Jackson before he died.
The trial is likely to focus on his competence based partially on his reactions after Jackson stopped breathing on June 25, 2009.
The prospective jury candidates were asked if they had ever seen Jackson or his family members in person, whether they own his records or DVDs, attended his posthumous concert movie, This is It, and if so why they watched it.
