The judge will review Arnold Klein’s medical records

The judge in Michael Jackson’s murder case has announced that he will review the medical evidence related to Arnold Klein. The defense attorneys believe he was the one who administered Demerol injections to Michael. They say Demerol caused Michael’s death, while the coroner has found otherwise. They say propofol was the lethal cause of Michael’s death, and the prosecution says Conrad Murray was responsible for the involuntary manslaughter. The judge said he will review the evidence before deciding whether Arnold Klein should also be brought into this case. This evidence covers the last nine months of Michael’s life. Klein is trying to prevent the information from being raised in court by citing the law on doctor-patient confidentiality. But Murray’s lawyers believe that revealing the truth in court comes before enforcing this law. They believe that while Michael was being treated by Murray with the anesthetic propofol, his dependence on the painkiller Demerol could have affected his condition. Klein’s lawyer says Murray’s lawyers have not provided any evidence to prove Michael’s addiction to Demerol, nor any evidence of malpractice by Dr. Klein. Source: eMJey.com / abcnews.go.com
