The disgraced former cardiologist was sentenced to jail after being found guilty of involuntary manslaughter following the death of his patient Michael Jackson on June 25, 2009. Murray is currently appealing the conviction as he serves out a four year sentence at the Los Angeles County Men’s Central Jail.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Flanagan dropped Murray as a client, following a physical and verbal altercation involving himself, his son and Wass.
Shortly after the altercation, Wass filed a police report alleging Flanagan’s son pushed her. A Los Angeles County Sheriff’s spokesperson said it was a “very minor altercation,” but that there would be an investigation in to the matter.
