NEWS: Death certificate ammended

DEATH CERTIFICATE AMMENDED
The official death certificate has been ammended to read "injection by another." The cause of death is still "acute Propofol intoxication" with another contributing factor of "benzodiazepine effect."

Here are the Field Numbers for the CA Death Cert. This will help you know what information box the details are being changed/

Rumors were swirling in UK papers on Sunday that Murray's defense would be that Michael changed the dosage of Propofol himself while Murray was out of the room. (which is rubbish). My educated guess is it trickled down to the LA County Coroner's office and to prevent any questions, further clarification was added.

Keep tying up the loose ends LAPD/LACC - the glove fits this one!
