London
(ANI):
King
of
Pop
Michael
Jackson's
body
may
have
to
be
exhumed
in
a
bid
to
prove
that
his
doc
is
innocent.
Lawyers
for
Dr
Conrad
Murray
plan
to
challenge
the
singer's
autopsy,
which
found
he
killed
him
with
an
overdose
of
sedative
Propofol.
They
want
to
show
that
the
singer
could
have
died
from
other
drug
use.
However,
they
may
demand
his
body
be
dug
up
for
new
tests
ahead
of
Murray's
trial
next
year
to
prove
their
theory.
A
key
find
could
be
needle
marks
not
made
by
the
doctor.
"This
is
a
horrifying
situation
the
family
have
been
dreading.
They
laid
Michael
to
rest
and
for
him
to
return
is
just
sick," News
of
the
World
quoted
a
Jackson
family
friend
as
saying.
Murray's
legal
team
hopes
to
get
the
cardiologist's
involuntary
manslaughter
charges
thrown
out
by
trying
to
convince
a
judge
to
have
the
singer's
body
unearthed.
Lead
attorney
Ed
Chernoff
has
already
got
the
green
light
to
re-test
tissue
samples
removed
and
frozen
after
Jacko,
50,
died
last
June.
"If
the
tests
don't
concur
with
the
coroner's
findings,
they
have
the
start
of
a
strong
defence.
The
logical
next
step
would
be
to
exhume
the
body
to
make
new
tests,"
the
family
friend
said.
Jackson
is
buried
at
a
mausoleum
in
Los
Angeles.
