Dr Conrad Murray is set to face criminal charges with regards to Michael Jackson's death, according to a report.

The Los Angeles Police Department have completed their investigation into the death, reports TMZ.com. An anonymous source said that Murray is set to face criminal charges after it is presented to the city's District Attorney within the next few weeks.

Murray was the only individual being investigated in the homicide case.

Meanwhile, it has been revealed that the doctor has hired the services of Britney Spears' former lawyer - who says he has experience in Propofol death cases.

Murray has enlisted J. Michael Flanagan, who defended Spears for her hit-and-run case in 2007. Flanagan said he had experience of case involving Propofol – the drug it is alleged was administered to Jackson just before he died.

"I'm probably the only attorney in town that has successfully tried a Propofol case involving death," he told TMZ.com.

Conrad Murray returned to work at his practice in Houston last November.
