麦可猝逝 医师涉过失杀人开审

【新唐人2011年9月28日讯】(中央社洛杉矶27日综合外电报导)美国流行乐天王迈克尔·桀克逊的医师莫瑞涉嫌过失杀人案今天开审,在审判一开始播放的录音中,显然用药过度的麦可以含糊不清的声音与莫瑞(Conrad Murray)通话。

迈克尔(Michael Jackson)在2009年死前一个半月前的这通电话中,以十分含糊不清的声音讨论他对伦敦东山再起演唱会的期望。

迈克尔以低沉的声音表示:“我希望歌迷从会场离开时,会说‘我一辈子从没听过这么棒的演唱会’。我们一定要很棒很棒。”

在这宗预料将持续5周的审判第一天,庭上也展示迈克尔躺在医院轮床上、覆盖白布的遗体照片。

莫瑞被控在迈克尔2009年6月25日逝世前两个多月里,每晚都给麦可服用过量的强力镇定剂异丙酚(propofol)。

检察官华格伦(David Wagren)在开庭陈述中说,这通2009年5月10日的电话交谈,显示莫瑞“明显的在观察,可能在倾听,但把它录到他的iPhone里”。

华格伦表示,这项证据显示莫瑞知道“他在2009年5月,即迈克尔死前一个半月时对他做了什么,迈克尔就是因为这项治疗而死”。

不过莫瑞的律师表示,迈克尔是因为自己服过量的药致死。

莫瑞对过失杀人的指控不认罪,不过如果陪审团最终认为他因照护不当,应为迈克尔的死负责,他将面临长达4年刑期。(译者:中央社陈政一)

In another haunting moment on the first day of what is expected to be five-week trial, the court was also shown a picture of Jackson’s deadbody, draped in white on a hospital gurney. Murray is accused of administering an overdose of the powerful sedative propofol to Jackson on a nightly basis for over two months before his death on June 25, 2009. Jackson died in Los Angeles, where he was rehearsing for the “This is It" series of comeback concerts scheduled to take place in the O2 Arena in London later that year. Making his opening statement, prosecutor David Walgren said the phone conversation from May 10, 2009 showed Murray “evidently observing,maybe listening but recording on his iPhone." Inthe deeply slurred voice, Jackson adds in the recording: “When people leave this show, when people leave my show, I want them to say, ‘I’ve never seen nothing like this in my life. Go. Go.I’ve never seen nothing like this. “‘Go. It’s amazing. He’s the greatest entertainer in the world,'" he adds in the recording — made intelligible thanks to a transcript displayed inthe court. What this evidence showed was Murray’s knowledge of what “he is doing to Michael Jackson in May 2009, over a month and a half before Michael died as a result of this very treatment," said the prosecutor. Walgren said that days after Murray made the recording on his iPhone, he ordered an additional massive batch of propofol and the anti-anxiety drug midazolam despite Jackson’s condition. Some 15.5liters of propofol was ordered by Murray, the prosecutor said. The picture of Jackson’s dead body — in which he is lying on his back, with apiece of tape apparently across his face — is thought to be one of the first and clearest images of the star’s corpse since his death two years ago. Jackson’s death at the age of 50 rocked the music world, and triggered extensive investigations which turned up evidence about Murray’s alleged role in giving the star a drug overdose which led to his death. Murray’s lawyers claim Jackson swallowed eight two-milligram pills of lorazepam, another anti-anxiety medication, in the final hours before his death without his doctor’s knowledge,before administering a final dose of propofol while the medic was out of the room. mt/rl
