I cant say what he did or didnt do as I was not there. However there s no question MJ was a very troubled person.

What I do know is in my dealing with him as my heart specialist he was a very kind man. He took very good care of my father as well,

My father is poor and Dr. Murray never cared if my father paid him or not. He just treated him and talked with him. My father considers him one of his dearest friends to this day.

In my opinion his big heart got the better of him and he put himself in a bad position out of his desire to help.

MJ was a ticking time bomb waiting to pop on someone. Doctors had been filling MJ with drugs for years before Murray came along.

I am not trying to say what he did was the right thing to do but the man is not the monster you portray him to be. At least in my personal dealings with him he was never anything but a kind compassionate man.

Very sad to see him demonized but I do understand the reaction.
