Michael Jackson's Houston Doctor Manslaughter Probe


The feds raided the Las Vegas home and clinic of Michael Jackson's doctor Tuesday as sources said he admitted giving the pop icon the powerful anesthetic propofol.
The manslaughter probe appeared to be ratcheting up as Drug Enforcement Administration agents entered Dr. Conrad Murray's posh mansion and medical office days after they raided his Houston clinic.

Law enforcement sources said Monday that they believe Jackson was killed by a dose of propofol and that Murray, 51, administered the drug.

The Associated Press reported Tuesday that Murray told investigators that he did give Jackson propofol to help him sleep several times, including the day he died.

The dangerous drug, which Jackson is said to have received regularly for about two years, is only supposed to be delivered by a hospital anesthesiologist. Murray is the focus of the probe into Jackson's June 25 death.
Court records said agents who searched Murray's Houston clinic last week were searching for "items constituting evidence of the offense of manslaughter that tend to show that Dr. Conrad Murray committed the said criminal offense."
