STORY: An audio recording of Michael Jackson's slurred speech was played in court Wednesday at Dr. Conrad Murray's trial for involuntary manslaughter in Los Angeles.
The recording, which lasts about four minutes long, was recorded on May 10, 2009, just over one month before Jackson's death at age 50 on June 25, 2009. Portions of the recording were played during opening statements for the prosecution on September 27.
In the recording, an unrecognizable Jackson seems to be heavily drugged, slurring his words while talking with Murray about his then-upcoming concert series, "This is it."
