LOS ANGELES, (Reuters) – The doctor convicted of  involuntary manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson will  star in a tell-all TV documentary airing this week, the company  behind the film said today.
The 50-minute documentary about Dr. Conrad Murray will air  in the United States on MSNBC on Friday under the title  “Michael Jackson and the Doctor,” the network said.
The broadcast will come just days after Murray, 58, was  found guilty on Monday of gross negligence in his care of the  Jackson, leading to his death in June 2009. Murray pleaded not  guilty but did not testify at his trial and is now in jail in  Los Angeles ahead of a Nov. 29 sentencing hearing.
The documentary explores the relationship between Jackson  and his personal physician. It was shot before Murray’s  conviction and in it the doctor reveals details of his time  with Jackson.
“Walking around with painful feet as a dancer, unbelievable  calluses, so I brought the appropriate specialists. He was very  pleased of course,” Murray says in an excerpt posted on  celebrity website TMZ.com.
The documentary was produced by October Films and what’s it  all about? productions and is distributed by British company  Zodiak Rights.
They secured exclusive access to Murray in November 2009 –  following Jackson’s death on June 25 of that year — and  filmmakers shot footage of the doctor over two years and during  his six-week trial, Zodiak said.
The film will air on Thursday in Australia, and later this  week in Britain, Zodiak said.
Medical examiners found Jackson died of an overdose of the  powerful anesthetic propofol and sedatives, which Murray said  he gave the singer as a sleep aid.
