Media reports this week speculated when Dr. Conrad Murray might be formally charged with involuntary manslaughter. Although prosecutors have announced Murray would be charged Monday, People.com said they did not specify what charges he will face.
Also unclear is whether Murray will be allowed to surrender at a police station for booking and post bail, or if he will be arrested and transported to a courthouse in handcuffs, People.com said.
Murray's attorney said Thursday Murray would plead innocent if charged with involuntary manslaughter as expected.
Jackson's death at age 50 was declared a homicide after lethal levels of the anesthesia propofol and sedatives were found in his system.
Murray, the singer's Texas-based doctor, has been under investigation for his treatment of Jackson in the time leading up to his death. Police have said Murray admitted he administered the drugs to Jackson to help him sleep shortly before he died June 25, 2009.
Murray has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and his lawyer has said he is fully cooperating with the investigation.

This guy is guilty... He was
This guy is guilty... He was bringing him oxygen tanks up and down stairs each day. On top of that he was his doctor so if there were drugs in Micheal's system then this guy was responsible even if it was for "recreational use" and this doc new about it, it's still the doctor's fault for not telling.
