The Drug That Restored Deep Sleep-and Then Vanished Forever

Sleep turned lethal: a surgical anesthetic meant for operating rooms was given by IV in a private bedroom, night after night for weeks, to a fifty-year-old preparing a comeback. The coroner ruled acute propofol intoxication and listed the manner of death as homicide - so how did a cardiologist end up administering propofol as a sleep aid in a home with no monitoring protocol?
In this episode, we tell the episode’s narrative from the bedroom on Carolwood Drive to the courtroom questions that followed, covering the medical background, the financial pressures, and the sequence of events that led to a physician’s custody of a surgical drug for home use - and ask how that combination produced a fatal outcome.
Person: Conrad Robert Murray
Date: June 25, 2009
Cause of death: Acute propofol intoxication with benzodiazepines as contributing factor
Manner of death: Homicide
Patient age: 50
