Could the New Pope Be Black?

The criminal case, first reported by the Associated Press, comes nearly five months after the Los Angeles county coroner ruled the pop legend’s death was a homicide, finding he was poisoned by an overdose of the anaesthetic propofol. The addictive intravenous drug is typically used in a clinical setting, not in the home.

A law enforcement source told the Associated Press that Murray will be prosecuted on a theory of gross negligence. Spokesmen for Murray had no comment, and have said Murray neither prescribed nor administered drugs that should have killed Jackson.

Someone’s going to take the fall for this. Do you feel Murray is ultimately responsible or is he just the easiest person to blame?
