Michael Jackson was killed by the drugs given to him by his doctor, according to a Los Angeles newspaper. There has been no official comment on the cause of Jackson's death, but journalists at the newspaper say they have seen parts of a report made by doctors who examined the singer's body.
The doctor, Conrad Murray, gave Jackson different types of sedatives and painkillers like Valium, lorazepam and propofol in the hours before he died. These drugs are dangerous when mixed with other drugs or when taken at home. Dr Murray may now be arrested and taken to court where he would have to give details of Jackson's medical history.
Jackson died on the 25th June after he stopped breathing at his home in Los Angeles.
