Joe, 81, accused Murray of causing his son’s death by giving him surgical anaesthetic Propofol, that was ruled as the main reason for Jackson’s death.

‘This evidence is damning. They should lock him up and throw away the key. It’s disgusting what happened here,’ The News of the World quoted Joe as saying.

A family insider added: ‘Murray’s delays and lies cost Michael his life. Why has he not been charged with murder? He failed to do his job and willingly gave Michael the drugs that killed him.

‘This lawsuit is not about what we think, it’s filled with documentary evidence from those at the scene, who saw what Murray did.’ (ANI)
