Jermaine Jackson: I'm "Disgusted" By Conrad Murray's Early Release
Jermaine Jackson is taking the early release of Conrad Murray from prison pretty hard. Michael Jackson's brother tells TMZ he is "disgusted" that Murray, incarcerated for involuntary manslaughter after a judge and jury ruled him partially-liable for the death of the late king of pop, got two years shaved off of his four year sentence because of a change in California laws.
The gossip site caught up with Jermaine and his brother Tito Jackson at LAX on Monday. When asked for his reaction to Murray's release, Jermaine wasn't shy to voice his contempt, but Tito refrained.
The former doctor's release must be salt on the wound for the Jackson family, who recently lost their wrongful death lawsuit against concert promoter AEG, and Jermaine himself was recently slapped with a court order to pay thousands of dollars in back child support to his ex-wife.
