Day 1 of Dr. Murray's Trial

Wow. I really wish that I hadn't seen the picture of him dead on the gurney or heard the audio that Dr. Murray recorded on his I-Phone.  It makes you wonder though, why would he record that and why would he keep it?  It really doesn't matter how Michael got addicted and to what, what matters is what happened during the time that Dr. Murray was in charge of his care.

I have had surgery many times with propofol and take lorazepam daily and when doing dental procedures they up the dose of lorazepam aka Ativan to relax me to a point I won't recall the dental visit.  Both of these are done in a medical facility with oxygen and someone monitoring me at all times.

The fact that Michael was taking Demerol shots without Dr. Murray knowing is intriguing.  However, even if he had that shot, that day, Dr. Murray was responsible for Michael's health.  He knew Michael had to be supervised while using propofol yet he decided to leave the room and call his girlfriends.

From my own experience with propofol if used appropriately there is no way Michael could have dosed himself because you go RIGHT out with it.  He wouldn't have woken up during the time Dr. Murray was out of the room, instead, he would stop breathing as was recently showed by a Dr. in a hospital setting.  He put his patient under, and the patient did stop breathing so they immediately got a trach tube in etc.  He stopped breathing under a minute after going under.  Michael didn't have a chance.

It doesn't matter what he gave to him etc.  the fact that he administered something that should be in a hospital setting with no resuscitation equipment etc. and then left him unattended is what is really what matters in the case. He was a cardiologist and didn't know how to do CPR??  He was doing it 1 handed when the security and others came in ON the bed.  Anyone that has been CPR trained knows you move the patient to a hard surface like the floor and it is a 2 handed technique.  I think he did it for appearances knowing Michael was dead.  Asking if anyone else knew CPR? are you kidding me?  He called a ton of people before 911 was called. He was on the phone with one of his girlfriends when he realized what was going on.   Shows how much he truly cared for Michael.  Making a booty call instead of watching over Michael.

It does sound to me that Arnie Klein might also need to be looked into for providing the Demerol.  He had him addicted to it!  Why aren't they going to be calling him in this case?  Is there a case pending against him too?

What do y'all think?
