On behalf of the United States of America F**K Califorina

[Mr Puggsly]

Since when has giving opiates/painkillers not been helping people in chronic pain? I do not know what drugs he gave MJ, but the man was clearly suffering from mental disorders. Some of the drugs were for anxiety which when chronic is considered a mental disorder. Not to mention breaking all those bone for plastic surgery should lead to chronic pain. People get addicted to the drugs no matter if they intend to or not. So if a Doctor is trying to treat things like anxiety and chronic pain they are still helping people.

Even if Jackson mixed the wrong types of drugs individuals doing drugs should research them to know the side effects and results. Jackson was an addict and he made his own choices. No I do not say fuck California it is a great state better than most. A doctor is supposed to help people, not support their drug addiction to get rich. If you do enough painkillers and other drugs medicine eventually it becomes an addiction no matter what. Any doctor providing care with addictive drugs is also making lots af money and creating addicts. This Doctor just happens to provide drugs to famous/rich people instead of the average person.  Once again, doctors are supposed to help people. Giving addicts endless supplies of whatever drug they desire is not helping. No doctor in their right mind would do this. So why did Murray do this for MJ? Because MJ was paying him $150K a month to do it. A doctor is given the power to give prescriptions in order to help people. He abused that power for money and probably just to be close to MJ. He did the wrong thing and now he needs to be made an example of.

Its clear that Murray was giving MJ whatever he wanted and not what he needed. Which was an endless supply of various drugs.

 You agree MJ was a drug addict and Murray knew that better than anyone. Murray could have walked away, but instead he supported MJ's drug habit for a ton of money and other selfish reasons.

For what its worth, I think they said he can only see a maximum of four years. He'll likely go to some white collar prision and get released early. Not a bad deal. He'll still be a rich man when this is all over.
