If Dr. Conrad Murray is convicted of felony involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to the maximum -- 4 years in state prison -- he will not spend a single day in prison ... and he could end up on house arrest.
A new law went into effect in California on October 1, which says, because of overcrowding, people convicted of non-violent felonies cannot be sent to State prison. Instead, non-violent felons serve their time in county jail.
Law enforcement tells TMZ ... involuntary manslaughter is a non-violent felony, which means if Murray is convicted he'd go to L.A. County Jail.
As for how much time Murray would serve ... L.A. County Sheriff's officials tell TMZ ... Murray would be jailed for half the actual sentence. So if he gets the max -- 4 years -- he would only serve 2.
But there's a twist ... Murray could actually serve way less than 2 years. Because of severe overcrowding, inmates are eligible for house arrest, based on 2 factors -- their prior criminal history, and risk to the community. Murray has a clean record and, as one law enforcement official put it, he poses no risk ... it's not like he's going to go out with a bottle of Propofol and kill people.
So if the jail is filled to the gills, the Sheriff could put him on house arrest with an electronic monitoring bracelet. But one official from the Sheriff's Department told us ... Murray wouldn't be placed on house arrest right out of the box. He would almost certainly do some time before the jailhouse doors would open.

incredibil cat noroc ar putea sa aiba macelarul :(, ´´prost sa fii, noroc ca esti´´, OMG
da am vazut...nu stiu ce sa zic nu prea e in regula
Pai, noi am anticipat inca de la inceput, de acum 2 ani, ca nu e in regula, nu? Am tot vorbit despre faptul ca Murray este protejat si nu seamana deloc a fi un accident tot ce s-a intamplat.
de asta a si avut curajul sa o faca, la cat e de las, pt ca stia ca are spatele asigurat
Eu cred ca oricine altcineva ar fi avut spatele asigurat. Murray a fost singurul care a acceptat s-o faca din lacomie pentru bani.
Nu stiu daca ati apucat sa cititi marturiile celor de la AEG, sa vedeti in ce fel si-a negociat omul contractul. Extrem de interesant.
Doar ca, ca nici Mike si nici AEG-ul n-au apucat sa-l semneze.
nu le-am citit
deci a ramas si fara bani, scarba
