"Conrad Murray has been released from prison, two years after being convicted of the involuntary manslaughter of Michael Jackson. The 60-year-old left Los Angeles Men&amp;#039;s Central Jail this morning (October 28) in a police cruiser.  His lawyer stated that he was not released due to good behaviour, but rather credit for time served, as he was given an additional day of credit for each day he served inside. Back in 2011, Murray was sentenced to four years in prison for involuntary manslaughter, after he used the powerful anaesthetic drug propofol on Jackson, shortly before his death in 2009. Murray&amp;#039;s lawyers have now filed petitions in Texas to see his medical license reinstated, after the state revoked it back in August. His licenses in California and Nevada have already been suspended. His attorney Valarie Wass has said that he hopes Murray will eventually be vindicated on appeal and will be able to serve as a doctor again.   &amp;quot;He&amp;#039;s going to fight it. I think it will be very difficult in California if they uphold the judgement,&amp;quot; Wass told ABC News. &amp;quot;He&amp;#039;s very hopeful. He&amp;#039;s going to practise medicine somewhere is my understanding. He&amp;#039;s prepared to go to federal court to fight.&amp;quot; Jackson fans had gathered outside the jail, telling CNN that the LA County sheriff showed favouritism by allowing Murray to leave via the back exit. Murray was described as an &amp;quot;exemplary inmate&amp;quot; by the sheriff&amp;#039;s spokesman, and was kept away from the general inmate population during his two-year stint. He was also given use of a telephone inside his cell during his final year. Jackson&amp;#039;s family recently lost their negligence case against tour promoter AEG Live, with the jury finding that Murray was not unfit or incompetent to work for him.
