Jurors in the involuntary manslaughter trial of Michael Jackson's personal physician, Conrad Murray, began deliberations Friday.
If convicted in the pop star's death from an overdose of the anesthetic propofol, he faces up to four years in prison.
The case was officially submitted to the jury late Thursday after closing arguments.

An attorney for Murray told jurors Thursday his client would never have been put on trial were it not for the pop star’s celebrity.
“Somebody’s got to say it: If it were anybody else but Michael Jackson, if it were anybody else, would this doctor be here today?” defense attorney Ed Chernoff told jurors.
