Dr. Conrad Murray Will Not Be Testifying In Michael Jackson Manslaughter Trial

The question as to whether or not Dr. Conrad Murray will testify in his own defense at the Michael Jackson manslaughter trial has been answered. The Defense will resume its questioning of their final witness, Dr. Paul White, but Dr. Murray will not be taking the stand.
A source said, “Dr. Murray has told his lawyers from day one that he wants to testify, and tell his side of events. But lead attorney Ed Chernoff has determined that Dr. Murray will not take the stand because he wouldn’t be able to withstand the tough cross examination that the DA would subject him to.”
The source added, “Clients always want to testify, but in this case, Walgren would be able to wear him down, and Dr. Murray just wouldn’t be able to overcome the basic facts of the case: not calling 911 right away, failure to tell emergency room doctors and first responders that he had given Jackson propofol, and not having the proper monitoring equipment.”
Is it possible for the doctor to walk away from the trial without jail time? What do you think?
