April 7, London (IANS) The lawyers of Conrad Murray, Michael Jackson's doctor, had said revealed that the late King of Pop might have been committed suicide over his financial despairs.
Defense lawyer of Conrad Ed Chernoff said that his client, who is charged with involuntary murder, was not responsible for the pop superstar's death in 2009.
He claimed that he was so upset about the state of his finances he took his own life, reports contactmusic.com.
'The root of the defense is going to be that Michael Jackson occupied in a desperate act and took desperate measures that caused his death. We believe at the time Michael Jackson died he was a desperate man in relation to his financial relationships,' Chernoff told that Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor.
However, Deputy District Attorney David Walgreen has resisted the claims, saying the defense is simply staging 'an irrelevant sideshow' aimed at distracting the jury from the key subject of the trial.
