The trial of Doctor Conrad Murray, the doctor accused of the involuntary manslaughter of Michael Jackson will be able to be televised a judge has ruled.

Superior court judge, Michael Pastor has stated that television cameras will be allowed into the court room for the trial which is expected to last around six weeks, as long as cameras had “absolute least intrusive placement.”

The trial is due to begin on March 24, four days earlier than originally planned and with the television coverage fans of Michael Jackson will be able to watch as the case unfolds.

News crews wanting to take a place in the court room will now have to provide the judge with a detailed proposal on how they want to conduct the filming.

Previous hearings in the case have not been televised including the preliminary hearing last month which heard witnesses testifying that Dr Murray, Jackson's personal physician, had given the pop star “Propofol” a surgical drug usually used in a clinical setting as an anesthetic.

Dr Murray had told police investigating the death of Michael Jackson last June that he had given the singer “Propofol” after he had already administered milder drugs during the night in an attempt to help Jackson sleep.

Lawyers for Dr Conrad Murray are saying however that the prosecution have failed to prove that he was responsible for the death of Michael Jackson and that his death was instead due to poor health.

Dr Conrad Murray is currently on a $750,000 bail and if convicted of involuntary manslaughter he will face a possible four year stint in prison.
