Murray was accused by the prosecution of administering a fatal dose of the surgical drug propofol and that contributed significantly to his death.

“This is a crime where the end result was the death of a human being,” said Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor. “That factor demonstrates rather dramatically that the public should be protected.”

Michael Jackson’s sister, La Toya Jackson and his friend, Kathy Hilton were in the courtroom as the verdict was read and cried.

Lindsay Lohan Is In And Out Of Jail In Under Five Hours

Lindsay Lohan should have her own personal revolving door installed at the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, Calif., because she has passed in and out once again.

Lohan reported to the jail on Sunday night to begin her sentence for violating conditions of her probabtion. TMZ is reporting the actress went in at 9pm on November 6th and was released at around 1:30am on Monday morning, November 7th.

Lohan, 25, was sentenced to 30 days by Judge Stephanie Sautner but because of a federal mandate to ease overcrowding, nonviolent offenders are released early.

It was thought Lohan would be incarcerated for about 6 of the 30 days, but that turned out to be a very high estimate of the length of her stay.

Lohan is still on probation and the judge has tightened the requirements Lindsay must meet to complete her 270 hours of community service. She will have monthly goals to meet in order to successfully complete her time.

If she fails to make any of Sautner’s deadlines, she could have an arrest warrant issued for her and sent back to prison.
