Judge Michael Pastor ruled there is sufficient evidence to warrant a manslaughter trial.
In his closing statement, Deputy District Attorney David Walgren told the judge, "It was not Michael Jackson's time to go.� Michael Jackson is not here today because of the negligence and reckless acts of Dr. Murray."
