Pop music legend Janet Jackson is speaking out against her brother Michael Jackson’s doctor.  In an interview with ABC News’ Robin Roberts, Janet said she blames Dr. Conrad Murray for Michael’s death.

She said Murray “was the one that was administering propofol.  I think he is responsible.” 

Although I agree Dr. Murray deserves some of the blame for Michael’s death because he administered propofol, it’s not entirely his fault.  Michael willingly took the drug because he was a drug addict.  He suffered from an addiction to medication, and that’s what killed him. 

He hired Dr. Murray to travel with him and serve as his full-time doctor so he could have easy acess to prescription drugs. 

Michael was a genius in the music industry.  He made the right decisions when it came to his music, his dancing and his videos.  But when it came to decisions in his personal life, Michael was negligent, and that negligence is what killed him.
