Conrad Robert Murray (born February 19, 1953) is a Grenadian-Trinidadian-American physician and convicted felon. He was the personal doctor of Michael Jackson on the day of his death in 2009. In 2011, Murray was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in Jackson's death for having inadvertently overdosed him with a powerful surgical anesthetic, propofol, which was being improperly used as a bedtime sleep agent. Murray served just under two years out of his original four-year prison sentence. He released a memoir, This Is It! in 2016.
