More results from the Michael Jackson autopsy have been made public and it reveals that Michael Jackson was in fact in fairly good health for a 50-year-old man at the time of his death last June.

Michael Jackson's former doctor says he has evidence to put people in prison

The autopsy report obtained by the Associated Press shows Jackson had some health issues such as arthritis in the lower spine and some fingers, mild plaque buildup in his leg arteries and his lungs were chronically inflamed and had reduced capacity which may have left him short of breath, but none were serious enough to contribute to his death.

Jackson weighed 136 lbs, which for a 5'9" man is an acceptable weight, and his heart was strong and his kidneys and most other organs were normal.

The results do not help the case of Dr. Conrad Murray, who is the target of a LAPD manslaughter investigation. One possible defense for Murray was that Jackson hid serious pre-existing conditions from him that increased the risks from the drugs he willingly took, the autopsy has quashed this.

Murray has not spoken publicly since Jackson's death, with the exception of a brief You Tube video where he claims, "I told the truth and I have faith the truth will prevail."
