NEWS: Michael Jackson's Doctors Escape Criminal Charges

Since the King of pop's death, California state investigators have been looking into how the doctors prescribed the singer drugs. Now, just over a year later it has been revealed that seven doctors who treated Michael Jackson will not face criminal charges relating to his death. One of the seven has been referred to the state's medical board for prescribing drugs under an alias.

Conrad Murray, Jackson's personal physician, who pleaded not guilty to the charge of involuntary manslaughter, was not one of the seven doctors involved in the questioning.

According to Brian Oxman, the lawyer representing Jackson's father Joe Jackson, he was "very disappointed" with the news. He said: "The misuse of medications by Michael Jackson in the last years of his life was excessive and to fail to bring that to the public eye is ignoring reality."
