A Los Angeles County District Attorney has allowed MICHAEL JACKSON's final rehearsal footage to be used in the trial against the late singer's physician Conrad Murray.
The D.A.'s official believes the concert video footage, taken on the days leading up to Jackson's death in June 2009, and included in his This Is It movie, will highlight the late star's state of mind and support the prosecution's claims that the superstar was "happy and excited for the future", and not looking to take his own life, reports TMZ.com.
Dr. Murray's defence team recently suggested Jackson may have purposefully overdosed on powerful anaesthetic Propofol. relieving the doctor of all manslaughter charges
As well as the footage, the prosecution has asked to be allowed to use autopsy pictures of the singer.
The doctor has been under scrutiny since the pop legend died at his home on June 25th 2009 with Mr Murray claiming that he tried to revive him. After paramedics arrived at his LA home, they were unsuccesful in their attempts at CPR and pronounced him dead at the hospital
The trial is scheduled to begin next month
