Conrad Murray Placed On Suicide Watch At Jail
Posted on Tue Nov 8, 2011 10:45 AM PDT
After a jury found him guilty of involuntary manslaughter in Michael Jackson's death, Conrad Murray was placed on suicide watch at the Los Angeles County Jail on Monday, according to the LA Times.
Murray was cuffed and taken into custody immediately after the verdict was read, and he will remain behind bars until his November 29 sentencing. Despite pleas from his attorney Ed Chernoff, LA County Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor ordered that he be locked up. "This is a crime where the end result was the death of a human being. That factor demands rather dramatically that the public should be protected," Pastor said.
Murray faces a maximum sentence of four years in prison.

He is NOT on suicide watch. They placed him in the psychiatric part of the jail because there is more security to watch him. He IS on watch for his personal safety from OTHER jail mates since he is such a public profile right now.
Four years is not a long enough sentence for what he did.
He's not guilty. Like that MJ freak needed help to overdose...
He just needs to hang loose until the Sentencing Hearing. Then he'll be on house arrest and getting laid daily by his whack-job girlfriend. Just a few weeks Doc, you can do it!
Does NOT mean Murray threatened suicide. It DOES mean the cops want to yank his clothes from his - i.e. his last little bit of comfort. Most suicide watches leave the inmate nude or nearly nude and very cold in an institutional setting. Not comfy. I don't know the thread count of their sheets, but it really doesn't matter. Murray won't be enjoying sheets for awhile. :)
At least he won't ask anyone to do it for him.
