Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter earlier this month after a six-week trial that presented the most detailed account yet of Jackson’s final hours, and how the 58-year-old cardiologist administered the powerful anesthetic propofol to treat the superstar’s chronic insomnia. Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor chastised Murray for a “horrific violation of trust” in caring for the pop star and called the heavy use of propofol “medicine madness.”
