Several weeks ago chief William Bratton, who is leading the investigation, has officially stated that police still considers that Michael Jackson's death could be a murder rather than an accident. «Are we dealing with a homicide or are we dealing with accidental overdose... I don't have that information. Our conclusions are going to be very dependent on the toxicology reports that are due to come back», explained he.
