Federal Agents Raid Michael Jackson’s Doctor’s Office
Los Angeles detectives, federal drug agents and Houston police raided the offices of Dr. Conrad Murray, the physician who was with Michael Jackson when the entertainer was stricken at home last month.

Acting on a search warrant, a caravan of 15 cars descended on the clinic at about 10:20 a.m. Wednesday, with officers in Drug Enforcement Administration windbreakers seen entering the building.
Agents are focusing the investigation on the drug Propofol, the powerful anesthesia that Jackson may have taken before his death, a law enforcement source tells PEOPLE.
“It is Conrad Murray they’re looking at,” the source says. “They are looking for Propofol, along with anything else they find. But Propofol is the big one.”
Numerous reports suggest that Jackson likely died after being administered the powerful sedative Propofol, or Diprivan, an anesthetic that’s only supposed to be used in hospitals. As Rock Daily reported, Jackson’s nurse/nutritionist said Jackson desperately sought Diprivan in the weeks before his death. An overdose of the sedative could cause someone to stop breathing, which leads to a buildup of carbon dioxide buildup in the body that could result in sudden cardiac arrest, which is what ultimately caused Michael Jackson’s death.

Is this becoming as chaotic as the birthers? I believe there are a lot of kooks involved in keeping this thing alive. I’m amazed how deeply invested Larry King is in this type of journalistic pursuit. I mean he’ll interview anyone with any sort of connection or claim and btw, Joe Jackson, he so crazy!

According to People Magazine – The authorities are focusing on Manslaughter:

Authorities are investigating whether Michael Jackson’s death was a case of manslaughter, according to a search warrant served on the offices of the entertainer’s doctor.
The search of Dr. Conrad Murray’s clinic in Houston was conducted Wednesday morning by agents from the Drug Enforcement Administration, two detectives from the LAPD’s Robbery Homicide division and officers from the Houston Police Department, according to Murray’s attorney.
“We reviewed the warrant and remained on the premises while the search was being executed,” says Murray’s lawyer Ed Chernoff in a statement. “The search warrant authorized law enforcement to search for and seize items, including documents, they believed constituted evidence of the offense of manslaughter.”
Among the items taken were a “forensic image of a business computer hard drive” and 21 documents. “None of the documents taken had previously been requested by law enforcement or the L.A. Coroner’s office,” says Chernoff.
Murray, who was with Jackson when he was stricken last month at home, has denied any wrongdoing and has said he’s cooperating with authorities.
