迈克尔·杰克逊医生的律师表示，将收回杰克逊自己服下致命剂量麻醉药物的说法。Peter Bowes在洛杉矶报道。

According to the defence, a study they commissioned has shown that any effect from swallowing the anaesthetic propofol would be trivial. Doctor Murray's legal team had previously claimed that Michael Jackson killed himself by ingesting the drug while his doctor was out of the room. A latest witness, a cardiologist who reviewed Doctor Murray's care of Michael Jackson, has told the court the physician made six extreme deviations from the expected standard of care. Doctor Murray denies a charge of involuntary manslaughter.

据辩护律师说，他们的研究表明，吞服异丙酚几乎没有什么影响。默里医生的律师团队之前声称迈克尔·杰克逊是自行吞下药物而死，当时医生不在房间。最后的见证者是一名心脏病医生，他回忆了默里对杰克逊的治疗，他在法庭上说，相较于通常采用的护理标准，默里存在6项严重“偏差”。默里医生否认犯有过失杀人罪。

A Syrian-born American man has been charged in the United States with spying for Syria. The US Justice Department said Mohamad Anas Haitham Soueid had gathered information on people protesting in America against the rule of President Bashar al-Assad. He was allegedly directed by Syrian intelligence agencies to collect video and audio recordings, phone numbers and emails. Many Syrians abroad have complained of systematic harassment by agents of the Syrian government.
