Conrad Murray, the doctor of the late pop star, Michael Jackson, who overdosed him by giving him too much Propofol anesthetic, along with other pharmaceutical meds, demanded $5,000,000 from tour promoter, AEG, to be the singer's physician on tour for a few months.
This was an extraordinary sum to request, betraying the doctor's greed. Jackson wouldn't even clear $5,000,000 per night on tour, after expenses, yet Murray thought this exorbitant sum was acceptable. Murray behaved like a mercenary and it clouded his judgment in a number of things, in relation to the medical care, if you can call it that, he gave Jackson.
