At attorney for Joe Jackson, the father of the late Michael Jackson, has reportedly referred to the involuntary manslaughter charge against Dr. Conrad Murray as a "slap on the wrist" and says it has caused "great disappointment."
People.com reports that attorney Brian Oxman, who represents the Jackson family patriarch, said of the charge: "This charge is a slap on the wrist…There’s great disappointment here. [Conrad Murray] should’ve been charged with a higher degree of responsibility. What he did was reckless. It was a disregard for human life."
Murray is expected to be arraigned later today, and has denied any wrongdoing connected to the King of Pop’s death.
