Jackson's Mom Pondering Wrongful Death Suit

Posted Aug 17th 2009 8:27PM by TMZ Staff

One of the attorneys for Michael Jackson's mother says the idea of filing a wrongful death lawsuit has "been floated" -- and the target would be Dr. Conrad Murray.

Burt Levitch said that Katherine Jackson is considering filing the suit because of the circumstances surrounding his death.

Murray has been the focus of an investigation into Jackson's death -- mainly whether he improperly administered the drug Propofol that is believed to be the cause of death.

11. The target for a wrongful death suit should be a whole lot bigger than Dr. Murray, who is just the fall guy. Besides, he's broke.
