Hollywood Nation: Verdict for Michael Jackson's Doctor

Following a six-week trial and two days of deliberation(审议), the jury in the Michael Jackson manslaughter case against Dr. Conrad Murray reached a verdict(裁决) Monday (Nov 7).
Dr. Conrad Murray was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter(过失杀人罪) in Los Angeles County Superior Court for the death of Michael Jackson. Jackson’s immediate family, including parents Joe and Katherine, and sister LaToya, were present in the court room as the verdict was read.
Prosectors say Murray caused Jackson’s death through acts of “criminal negligence(疏忽)” when he used a hospital-grade drug for insomnia(失眠) in Jackson’s home without the proper monitoring and resuscitation equipment (like a defibrillator[通过短暂简单的电击缓解心的纤颤，并使其恢复正常的心跳的一种带电装置], for instance).
Murray also acted negligently by waiting 20 minutes before calling 911, incompetently administering CPR(心肺复苏术), and failing to tell EMS workers who arrived on the scene that he had used Propofol(异丙酚，是一种现时常用的，快速短效，副作用小的静脉注射催眠剂), the drug that killed Michael Jackson.
Murray also failed to fulfill a doctor’s legal duty to care for a patient by acted negligently in delaying 20 minutes before calling 911, attempting CPR incompetently and failing to tell rescue personnel he had used propofol, prosecutors said.
Dr. Conrad Murray will be sentenced at a later date, and faces up to 4 years behind bars. He could also lose his medical license.
