Well, I think we all knew it was just a matter of time.
Dr. Conrad Murray, the Grenadian/Trini former doctor to King of Pop Michael Jackson, has been charged with involuntary manslaughter.
It all went down a while ago in Los Angeles.
Murray's lawer says his will plead not guilty and "fight like hell" to defend himself on the charge.
Several members of the Jackson fam were present for the arraignment including father Joe and mother Katherine and siblings Jermain and Latoya.
the spirit and tempo of the Caribbean woman ... online

Michael Jackson death ruled a homicide
Oh sheeeeet. Dr. Conrad Murray is now really in potta/shit street/up a creek without a paddle. You pick the metaphor.
The Los Angeles County Coroner has ruled that the King of Pop's death was a homicide and the likely cause was a lethal combination of drugs.
Every news outlet and their mother is running with the AP report where a law enforcement official confirmed that the death is being treated as a homicide.
FYI - dat is murder hear?
Apparently, the forensic exams found that high levels of the anesthetic propofol along with two other sedatives was what caused Jackson's death.
Of course, this has has been widely speculated on for weeks, ever since Jackson's nutritionist Cherilyn Lee revealed that he had begged her to get the anesthetic Dipravan (another name for propofol) for him, in the weeks before his death.
Dr. Murray, who has been the target of a manslaughter investigation for weeks now apparently told investigators that he had been treating Jackson for insomnia for nearly six weeks with 50 milligrams of propofol every night. Via an IV drip.
Celebs really are not like you and me.
Murray told the investigators he worried that Jackson was forming an addiction to the propofol (no shit - anyone taking a powerful drug only used in hospitals and using it every night just to drop a sleep is obviously addicted. Why would Murray as a doctor give it to him in the first place?).
Anyhow, so he was trying to wean Jackson off the propofol by lowering the dosage and mixing it in with other sedatives.
Curiouser and curiouser.
Yet, it must have seemed to be working because two days before Jackson died, he managed to fall asleep with 'just' the two other sedatives.
But then in the wee hours of of June 25th, Murray reportedly tried all kinds of non-propofol alternatives to get Jackson to sleep, including regular old Valium.
None worked and Jackson demanded the propofol so finally Murray gave in around 10:40 a.m.
And the rest... well, we know it from there.
Awful and sad.

'Tings a get sticky!' - Michael Jackson's doc investigated for manslaughter
Wow... Things are looking real brown for Dr. Conrad Murray, the Grenadian/Trini who was Michael Jackson's last personal physician.
After weeks of wondering and speculation and investigation, he is now apparently the subject of a manslaughter investigation.
Court records filed in Houston on Thursday show that he is definitely now on the radar of the authorities as a suspect, despite the protestations of his legal counsel.
A pair of search warrants that were filed before Federal authorities raided his clinic in Houston, stated that investigators were searching for:
The searches gave authorities permission to look for:
Damn.

The searches gave authorities permission to look for:
"implements and instruments used in the commission of a crime."
Damn.

Caribbean commess around the Jacksons
As if there was not enough drama surrounding the death of Michael Jackson, a whole lot of Caribbean-style commess has been added to the mix.
We all know by now that Jackson's last doctor, Dr. Conrad Murray is a Grenadian-Trini and that he has been repeatedly questioned by investigators on Jackson's last moments, what drugs he would have prescribed for Jackson and even had his car impounded.
But on top of that, Dr. Murray is apparently a Caribbean-style village ram, fathering six children with five different women. And these women were not playing with his tail. He apparently had a trail of debt and liens on his salary, due to numerous child support claims.
