Breaking: Dr. Conrad Murray Sentenced to Four Years in Prison
Dr. Conrad Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter of his patient and pop legend Michael Jackson, was sentenced today to 4 years in prison -- the maximum possible for the conviction.

The judge could have given him anywhere between 2 and 4 years (Conrad's lawyers were trying for no prison time at all). The judge cited that he chose a more severe sentencing partially due to the fact that Murray had apparently shown no remorse and put Michael in danger many times over while under his care.
Due to overcrowding in prisons (that got Lindsay Lohan off of her 30-day sentence in 4 hours), it's likely that Murray will only be serving a fraction of his sentence, but it seems the judge wanted to do everything he could to punish Murray for his crime.
Do you think this is a fair sentence for Conrad Murray??
