Although Michael Jackson’s personal doctor Conrad Murray still remains a free man following raids of his home and offices in two states, this is not the first time he’s caught the attention of law enforcement.
ABC News has reported that Murray was arrested on domestic violence charges in 1994 after an incident with his then-girlfriend. Murray was eventually tried and acquitted.
Whether Murray will remain free of charges related to the June 25 death of Michael Jackson remains to be seen. Court papers have shown that the raid Tuesday on Murray’s Las Vegas home and office and last week’s raid at his Houston office collected evidence to be used in an investigation of possible manslaughter charges, according to the police search warrants.
Tuesday’s raid netted envelopes, yellow cases, cell phones and a computer hard drive.
“This seems like death by a thousand cuts,” ABC News legal analyst Dana Cole told Good Morning America. “They’re just not going to let up on this guy. We’ll have to see what it ultimately reveals.”
Though toxicology reports from Jackson’s autopsy may be delayed another week, preliminary results show the powerful anesthetic propofol was a contributing factor in the pop icon’s death. And it was Murray who reportedly administered the drug to Jackson the day he died.
