Dr. Conrad Murray Still has Patients Who Love Him
One involuntary manslaughter charge later … and Dr. Conrad Murray‘s patients in Las Vegas still can’t wait to put their lives in his hands.
One of his patients — Marietta Lewis — claims Dr. Murray is responsible for saving her life, and she told us, "I made sure to call and have my name added to his patient wait list, so that when he comes back, I will still be under his care."
Well he’s back … Dr. Murray was photographed going into his Las Vegas office yesterday, just two days after he was freed on $75,000 bail.

Documents filed July 23 with the Clark County Recorder reveal that Murray could face foreclosure on his gated country club estate as soon as November.

(Which may be why Murray was so keen to stay in Jackson’s good graces and keep the $150,000-a-month salary that came with it.)
As for Murray’s less current troubles, here’s a rundown of his legal lowlights:
