VIA CNN:

LOS ANGELES, California — Michael Jackson’s personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, administered a powerful drug that authorities believe killed the singer, a source with knowledge of the investigation confirmed to CNN on Monday.

Murray, a Texas-based cardiologist, allegedly gave Jackson the anesthetic propofol — commonly known by the brand name Diprivan — in the 24 hours before he died, the source said.

The doctor’s attorneys in a statement Monday said they wouldn’t comment on “rumors, innuendo or unnamed sources.” In the past, they have said Murray never prescribed or administered anything that could have killed the pop star.

Murray was the doctor who was at Jackson’s home when the pop star died on June 25.
