Michael Jackson death, Doctor found guilty

[Chogy]

i dont know the exact word in english though... that is why i used the term "buy yourself out of prison"

There is no legal "option" to commute your jail sentence with $$. If Bill Gates is jailed for manslaughter, all his billions will not help him escape his fate, once the Judge announces sentence.

I'll freely admit that a vastly wealthy person can buy an army of top lawyers and perhaps help him avoid it in the first place, but again, once sentence is pronounced, money will not help. There is no mechanism where a rich guy can buy off the family of his victim, for example. The reason - when we try someone for a major crime, it is "The State of Virginia vs. Bill Smith", not "The murder victim's family vs. Bill Smith."

Hope this makes some sense.
