Remembering The King of Pop: Michael Jackson Would Have Been 54 Years Old Today!

The untimely death of superstar Michael Jackson shocked the world three years ago. The King of Pop died on June 25, 2009, and a Los Angeles County jury convicted his personal physician, Conrad Murray, of involuntary manslaughter in the death. The doctor gave the singer a powerful anesthetic called propofol to help Michael sleep. Propofol is typically given to patients who are undergoing surgery, and the fast-acting drug is not meant to be used outside a hospital.
