Dr. Murray pled not guilty today to the charges of involuntary manslaughter of Michael Jackson. Jackson's death, as determined by the L.A. County Coroner's Office, was a result of Propofol intoxication. Dr. Murray prescribed the drug, along with others, to Jackson just before he died.

After the 25 minute hearing, Murray was taken into custody with a bail set at $75,000. According to TMZ, Murray cannot be in possession of or prescribe anesthetics, specifically Propofol. Murray had to hand over his passport at the end of the hearing - all of this in front of Jackson's parents and other family members.

The judge told Murray plain and simple, "I do not want you sedating people," but the medical board called him a "danger to the public". The board hoped that the judge would stop Murray from practicing medicine all togehter, but the judge didn't go that far. Dr. Murray is set to be in court again April 5th.

Remember the viral video of the Filipino prison inmates dancing to Michael Jackson's Thriller? Well these inmates are at it again with a new song and new moves. In celebration of the DVD release of This Is It, they have learned a new dance to They Don't Really Care About Us. To learn this dance the inmates got to work with Jackson's own choreographer Travis Payne and dancers Daniel Celebre and Dres Reid.

See the awesome choreography as 1500 inmates from the Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center perform their newest tribute to the late King of Pop.

Evan Chandler - the father of Jordan Chandler, who accused Michael Jackson of molestation in the 1990s- was found dead in his Jersey City apartment. He was 65 years old. Officials claim Chandler was found with a .38-caliber revolver in his hand, but there was no note.

In the 1990s, the Chandlers were awarded 20 million dollars from Michael Jackson, although Jackson was never officially charged with sexual abuse.

Jordan Chandler had since estranged himself from his father. He even went as far as getting a restraining order against his father. Evan Chandler allegedly hit his son with a dumbbell.

Family and friends have come forward stating that Chandler had become increasingly more depressed. He suffered from wild mood swings and depression.

The late King of Pop Michael Jackson underwent several three dimensional scans in 1996 so a virtual reality ‘robotic’ replica of himself could be made.

The scans could now be used to recreate the Thriller star in pop videos, computer games or even films.

The anonymous US businessman who owned the images has reportedly been trying to sell them for $1 million. “The data has been in our archives since he had the scans," the businessman told Britain's Daily Star newspaper. "The thing about this data is it immortalised him at the age of 37, before his nose was disfigured and when he was in the prime of his life.”

Apparently Michael’s funeral was nearly cancelled at the last minute due to costs.

Around $1 million was estimated to have been spent on the funeral, which took place on September 3.

Court papers have revealed that lawyers acting for the ‘Billie Jean’ star’s mother Katherine had filed a request to the administrators of his estate to pay for the funeral bills just three days before the funneral.

The lawyers stated that if the funeral home and local police department’s bills were not paid by the next day, the burial would not go ahead as planned. Administrators were able to pay the bills in time so that the funeral did not have to be delayed.

Katherine’s lawyers admitted the cost of the funeral was high, but added it was: “Entirely commensurate with the decedent’s worldwide status as an entertainer and the world’s grief over his death.”

Two months after his untimely death, Michael Jackson will be buried today at the Forest Lawn Cemetery in Glendale, California. The ceremony will be a private affair for family and friends only. The funeral was supposed to be held on August 29, which would have been the King of Pop's 51st birthday, but was pushed back with no explanation.

There was much debate over where Jackson should be buried - brother Jermaine Jackson had wanted Michael to be buried at the singer's Neverland Valley Ranch estate. It was decided that Jackson will be buried in the Great Mausoleum on the grounds of Forest Lawn (George Burns, Clark Gable, Nat King Cole, John Wayne and Walt Disney are also all buried there). Jackson's mausoleum will have replicas of Michelangelo's "David" and "Moses" sculptures and a stained glass rendition of Leonardo da Vinci's "The Last Supper." Gladys Knight will perform an undisclosed song at the funeral, but no media of any kind will be present. Police, however, will be there, including canine units and air support, to keep gawkers away.

I guess A&E couldn't help themselves. Where they see Jacksons, they see gold. It has officially been announced that a new reality series, called The Jackson Family Dynasty starring Michael Jackson's brothers such as, Jackie, Jermaine, Marlon, and Tito has started filming.

Details about the show remain scarce. It has not been made known when the show will premiere, how many episodes it will have, or if any footage of Michael will be included. Looks like they all are wasting no time in taking advantage of the limelight from their brother Michael's death.

For weeks the mystery of Michael Jackson's body was media fodder. Frankly we at PCM thought that was boring news. Not any more!

Where is is MJ's body? Frozen in time! OK, not like Han Solo, or Ted Williams -- He's frozen more like David Blane.

You may read in the news soon that Michael Jackson's body is frozen, and that headline is clearly a teaser, the simple reality is that his mother has him at Forrest Hill's still in a deep freeze so that she may still visit him.

In other news... The coroner has returned his brain. Recently the LA coroner kept it to examine for clues hoping to find any other causes towards his death.

Sony Pictures Entertainment has confirmed it will piece together parts of the hours of footage from the late Michael Jackson rehearsing for his sold-out ‘This Is It’ London tour.

The film will share its name with the never-performed shows and will feature 3D segments, behind-the-scenes footage and a host of the songs Jackson was perfecting on the days prior to his sudden death on June 25.

Jackson named music executive John McClain and his long-time attorney John Branca as an executor of his estate in his will. “This film is not only a tribute to an artist who created excitement every moment he was on stage, but also is a fitting gift to the millions of fans worldwide who loved him and who he devoted his professional life to entertaining,” McClain said.

High School Musical director Kenny Ortega was the creative director for the ‘This Is It.' He is glad that the world will get to see Jackson's vision for the tour.

“Everyone will see what our team was so fortunate to experience, which was the full commitment, passion and creativity that Michael put into this project," Ortega said. "He was the architect of ‘This Is It’, and we were his builders. The footage that was captured from the early stages of the production to our technical rehearsals at the Staples Center in Los Angeles will show Michael as he truly was, creatively involved with every aspect of the production. It will also show Michael as one of the greatest entertainers in the world. The footage will show that he was on his way to another theatrical triumph.”

Some of the proceeds from the film will go directly to Jackson’s estate for the benefit of the Michael Jackson Family Trust.

“Our goal is to work with partners who treat Michael’s legacy with dignity and respect, while allowing us to substantially build the value of his estate for the benefit of Mrs. Katherine Jackson, Michael’s three children and the charitable causes that meant so much to him during his life,” Branca said.

The Prince of Pop's mother Katherine has been given full custody of her son’s children - Prince Michael I, 12, and Paris, 11, and seven-year-old Prince Michael II, also known as 'Blanket'.

The movie will hit theaters worldwide on October 28.

Did you ever wonder why Micheal Jackson's children look entirely Caucasian?

News of the World interviewed and posted to YouTube a short video interview with Godfather of Michael Jackson's children Mark Lester. In it Mark claims he believes Paris is his biological daughter. "I gave Michael my sperm so that he could have kids - and I believe Paris is my daughter."

It's another bombshell in fallout saga revolving around the Death of Michael Jackson. Complete with photo comparisons... You decide.

Some of the worlds biggest music stars are ready to honor the late Michael Jackson by recording versions of his songs for a charity album.

Robbie Williams, Whitney Houston, Lionel Richie, Stevie Wonder and Diana Ross have also been linked to the LP, as is the British schoolboy who was hand picked to sing at Micheal's memorial concert last month, Shaheen Jafargholi.

“The idea came from the memorial concert," a source said. "Many fans asked if cover versions from it would be released, and it seemed a wonderful idea. This covers album is sure to be a massive worldwide hit with fans and could raise a fortune for Michael’s favorite charities.”

The contributing stars will pick their favorite songs by the ‘King of Pop’ to cover. It is believed Mariah will record her version of ‘I’ll Be There’ from the memorial, while Shaheen will sing his version of ‘Who’s Loving You’. He has also reportedly been asked to record Michael’s early smash ‘Ben.'

Robbie is apparently going to sing ‘Man In The Mirror’, and other tracks expected to be on the album include ‘Rock With You’, ‘She’s Out Of My Life’ and ‘Bad.'

A Michael Jackson tribute concert is also being planned in London – where he had been due to play 50 shows starting this summer and running into 2010 – on the date of what would have been his 51st birthday, August 29.

Watch this hilarious video of Darth Vader and some storm troopers dancing to the late Michael Jackson's "Thriller." It is no surprise that the ruler of the dark side would enjoy this creepy tune. The video is very entertaining for Star Wars and Michael Jackson fans alike.
