Propofol Killed MJ, Trini Doctor Under Scrutiny

It's beginning to look like Dr. Conrad Murray killed the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson. Evidence that he gave Jackson propofol, a strong anesthetic, sometime after midnight, hours before the singer collapsed and died, has been unearthed by investigators, according to an AP news source.

Could it have been accidental? Only he knows. And why was a drug only used at hospitals found in MJ's home? Money can certainly buy anything and it may have bought the King of Pop his death. Propofol, it has been said, is not the only drug he has taken. Over the years he had progressed through a long list of prescription drugs to ease his pain and to help him sleep.

What happens next? Will Dr. Murray, 51, be arrested for manslaughter? Although he has been identified in court papers as a subject of a manslaughter investigation, police said he was not a suspect. Isn't that a contradiction?

Like Keith Smith said in his column, all Trinis, including myself, are waiting for the shoe to fall. They're feeling the pressure, because Dr. Murray, while not Trini by birth, has become known worldwide, as the Trinidadian doctor suspected of killing MJ. Whatever the outcome, the stench will not blow away easily.
