Police investigators in the Michael Jackson case are almost ready to present their case to the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office for a formal felony criminal filing. Sources within law enforcement are focusing their sights on Dr. Conrad Murray. As of the date of this blog post, Dr. Murray is reportedly the only target of the investigation.

Dr. Conrad Murray has been implicated in the death of the pop star by infusing Michael Jackson with Propofol, a very potent anesthetic drug, to help him sleep.

This blogger's sources indicate that the the Los Angeles Police Department had been consulting with the Deputy District Attorney's from the Target Crimes Division since shortly after the pop star's death.

The first is if a person is wanted for a crime. The judge will issue an arrest warrant. Once that is issued then law enforcement will arrest you and take you into custody. The second way a warrant can be issued is if you were supposed to be in court, or were ordered to do something by a judge and you failed to perform satisfactorily.

A warrant should be cleared as soon as you become aware of one being issued. Otherwise, you might not be able to get the best result on a case. In Los Angeles, a warrant while on probation could harm your chances to have your case expunged after you have completed a grant of probation.

A Los Angeles bench warrant attorney is be able to assist you in getting the warrant recalled and quashed as well as able to help you get a Los Angeles expungement.
