Conrad Murray is ordered to jail, will not be released with bail while he waits for his sentencing on November 29th. He was handcuffed and taken out of court.

Dr Conrad Murray faces up to four years behind bars after a jury in Los Angeles convicted him of involuntary manslaughter after just ten hours of deliberations over two days. The shamed doctor was been remanded to custody, will be formally sentenced on November 29th and left the courtroom in handcuffs, which sheriffs put on him before he got up from his chair.

Murray was accused of botching any hopes of reviving the star by delaying more than 20 minutes before calling 911 for help after discovering Jackson lifeless on his bed on June 25, 2009. Then he lied about using propofol - a powerful drug that is only supposed to be used in a hospital setting - to cover up his guilt, keeping the fact that he used the sedative from paramedics and emergency room doctors. 

In what was billed as the most closely watched celebrity trial in history, a procession of witnesses gave starkly contrasting views of the 58-year-old doctor.Announcing the verdict, the judge thanked the jurors for their civic duty.
