A.J. Hammer: Conrad on the stand would be "fascinating"

We are in day four of the Dr. Conrad Murray involuntary manslaughter trial and the testimony just keeps getting more explosive. Did you hear Jackson's security guard testify that Dr. Murray asked him to help dispose of vials and a saline bag before paramedics arrived? Then the paramedic who testified he saw Dr. Murray place some items into a plastic bag? It does make you wonder if Dr. Murray tried to cover-up his alleged involvement in Michael's death! Many people are also wondering if Conrad Murray will take the stand. I think we would all like to see that happen. While I don’t know if this is good idea from a strategic standpoint, it would be fascinating to hear his account of working for Michael Jackson and exactly what was going on in his mind throughout the day that Michael died. It is also remarkable to see the often-divided Jackson family together, in full force at the trial. Not only has the family shown up to sit in the courtroom day after day, they are also tweeting in real time from their seats. LaToya regularly updates her Twitter page and explains just how hard it has been hearing some of the testimony. She writes, “On our lunch break! It's so hard 4 me 2 breath N court from holding back the tears. I don't know how my mother stays so strong.” Jermaine used his Twitter page to address the audio played in court of Michael slurring his words. “The voice recording of Michael does not show/prove he was an addict - and this leap to agree with the defense is unfair and inaccurate.” With all of the tweeting that's going on, one wonders if it's simply the ‘tweeters’ expressing their feelings or perhaps an intentional, crafted effort to help shape public opinion. The Jacksons are show people and do like to control the message. I'll be right there at the courthouse in L.A. starting Monday. Keep tuning into "Showbiz Tonight" for my on-the-scene reports.
