CNN reports:

A jury has found Dr. Conrad Murray guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson.

Murray faces up to four years in prison and the loss of his medical license.

Murray was Jackson’s personal physician as the pop star prepared for his comeback concerts. Murray gave Jackson the surgical anesthetic propofol to help him sleep nearly every night for the last two months of his life, according to testimony.

Deliberations by the jury of seven men and five women began Friday after a 23-day trial and lasted for about 10 hours.
