Michael Jackson's family loses case of negligence against concert promoter

The jury in the Michael Jackson wrongful death trial has ruled that the concert promoter was not negligent in hiring the doctor who treated the singer.The jury ruled AEG Live did hire Conrad Murray. The jury then ruled Conrad Murray was not unfit or incompetent to treat MJ. Jackson's mother sued concert promoter AEG Live LLC over the hiring of Dr. Conrad Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter for giving Jackson an overdose of the anesthetic propofol in 2009.
Katherine Jackson claimed AEG Live should have done a thorough background check on Murray. The Jackson family matriarch was seeking hundreds of millions of dollars in damages for herself and her son's three children.The company denied hiring Murray and said he had been picked by the singer as the doctor for his upcoming shows. Katherine says she feels vindicated, despite losing her wrongful death lawsuit against concert promoter AEG Live.

She told TMZ;

 ‘We have said from the beginning that this case was a search for the truth.  We found the truth.  AEG hired Dr. Conrad Murray, the man who is in jail for killing Michael Jackson.’
