Guys apparently Murray has already sold his story of what happened. Why can this slick bastard sell his story before the verdict? And once he is convicted, doesn't he have give whatever money he made back? ( How is he able capitalize on his crime before the verdict?)

I'm sure some of you remember the rumors of Murray doing a documentary back in late 09/early 10. According to this article the documentary is still in place

Interesting Dr Murray wldn't testify when word on street is that he's pre-taped a documentary intvw. His version ok for TV, but not jury?

Report: Conrad Murray Filming and Shopping Documentary David McNew-Pool/Getty Images(NEW YORK) -- Conrad Murray is still in the midst of an involuntary manslaughter trial in the death of Michael Jackson, but that reportedly hasn’t stopped the doctor from quietly filming a documentary that’s being offered to major TV networks, theNew York Post reports.

Sources tell the newspaper Murray has sold the rights “to his story” to an unidentified production company that has been filming him as the trial progresses. The source says the company is now shopping the documentary around to various TV networks for $1 million as part of a package deal that would also include a video diary and a sit-down interview with Murray. It’s not known how much money Murray would get from any deal.

The source tells the Post, “A news division that pays for the documentary will end up with a side deal of getting the sit-down with Conrad. It’s crafted in such a way for a news division that doesn’t pay for interviews.”

The report says the production company has already filmed a long interview with Murray in case he is found guilty and taken immediately into custody.

The Post says a CNN rep confirmed they were pitched the Murray package but passed on it. Other sources tell the newspaper NBC is close to making a deal. A spokesman for Murray's legal team declined to comment on the story.

Murray faces up to four years in prison if found guilty of giving Jackson a fatal dose of the powerful anesthetic propofol prior to the singer's death in 2009.

I think the Jacksons made a mistake by not suing Murray for wrongful death. Ron Goldman sued OJ, and although OJ was broke after the trial, all money he tried to earn from his crime, went to the Goldmans. That discourage him from profiting from the murders.

Now Murray is free to profit ...

I am hoping the estate steps in..since he was MJ's doctor, he still has to respect MJ's right to privacy.
 
One of many reasons why he has to be convicted.is things like this. simpky horrendous to think of

He cant do it if convicted in the usa. but afterwards i doubt the u.s laws cover money made outside of the usa etc
 
Actually California doesn't have the Son of Sam law so legally Murray would be allowed to profit from this. But hopefully any money he makes would be taken from him in a civil suit.
 
OMG! Just shows what a selfish coward murray really is!

Is there some kind of statue of limitations on when you can sue for wrongful death? Why can't they sue after the verdict like the Goldman's did?
 
shame on Murray and shame on the media..... that's like a new recipe on how to become reach - kill a famous person and get $1 million for the story about how you did it.

Remeber all the outrage from the media over the IF I DID IT book of OJ? There will be none when it comes to Murray they'll welcome him with open arms and jump on his story.

No documentary should be done of course, but let's not forget how the media loves sensationlism. I doubt Murray will have any control on what is put in a documentary. They may put in all the salacious stuff in a documentary that wasn't allowed in the trial, like his love for strippers, his money problems, his contradictions in his statement, etc. This could backfire big time on him. Murray's ego and his patients have bolstered his already uber confidence. If he seriously believes he is going to be painted as this victim, I think he's going to get a rude awakening.

ETA: May he be blessed with a Martin Bashir for this thing.
 
I think that when we find out for sure that this documentary is about to happen we should start the campaign similar to the Discovery one. And probably we will be able to stop it.
 
I am at a lost for words...and God knows, that doesn't happen often.

I am too disgusted to comment.


I agree..the Jacksons should have done what Nicole Brown & Ron Goldman's families did. Sue Murray...even if doesn't have any money. All future income from interviews and what not, would have gone against any judgement.

Wow....The scumbag is trying to profit from MJ's death. Unreal.

If I am not mistaken, Joe Jackson did file a wrongful death suit against Murray. And his case was merged with Katherine's lawsuit against AEG. So there is hope...
 
The problem with the Jaackson's is that they dont care about Murray, they didn't bother to go after him, cuz they saw that he was broke, besides the time of money those jackson's are chasing is beyond of what a cardiologist makes.
 
It's so typical of Channel 4 (in the UK) to be airing a programme like this.

I remember a few years ago when they aired that hideous documentary called Michael Jackson: What Really Happened that was the biggest pile of shit i've ever seen with interviews with people like Diane Dimond, Victor Gutierrez, Bob Jones etc. It was full of tabloid crap.
 
Disgusting. This man is cold and shady. He only cares about money not people's life. I really hope the jury can see the truth.
 
I don't like the idea of someone profiting from this. However, I would be interested to hear exactly what Murray says just out of curiosity. I would also like to hear Chernoff's views on the trial and evidence.
 
now, there is only one thing missing to complete this horrible death drama.
he will be acquitted. everything went wrong in this case. in my opinion i dont wounder if he will acquitted.
 
Aint this a bish!!! :angry:
What? No book deal first? That culprit is gonna have the chance to make money off of MJ......again??
Well, WHEN he's convicted, he won't be collecting a dam thing! Scumbag!
The idea of him profiting in any way is too disturbing and pisses me off to the max!

To correct a misinformation : Joe is suing Murray for wrongful death.

Everything went wrong in Murray treating Michael. But the pros presented a very solid case against Murray. We have much reason to believe Murray will be convicted. It might not happen, but more went wrong in Murray's defense than the other way around.

the prosecution was good. but i'm frustrated about the fact that manslaughter was the false charge.

if u dont think he will be convicted on m.s why would u want a murder charge
 
totally confused about this thread,,,a person legally cannot profit off of their victim if found guilty of the crime....so can some one please explain to me why we are even entertaining this idea? thanks.
 
Ok the reason Murray is doing this is because he hasn't the funds to pay for his lawyers... And hes a greedy man. SECOND is it against what the judge has said about Not talking to anyone about the case outside of the court? I dont understand how everyone but the jury is aloud to talk about the case to the media and they are not aloud. Is there one set for Jury and one for lawyers? im confused by that.
