Six weeks have passed in the Dr. Conrad Murray manslaughter trial, and now it's up to the jury to decide whether the doctor is guilty or not ... of killing Michael Jackson.
The twelve men and women of the jury have begun deliberations. Their decision can come as soon as today or could take weeks to decide.
During closing arguments on Thursday, defense attorney Ed Chernoff said the prosecution "absolutely failed to prove a crime."
In comparison, prosecuting attorney David Walgren referred to the defense's theory as "junk science."
Dr. Murray is accused of injecting the King of Pop with a lethal dose of Propofol on June 25, 2009, resulting in Jackson's death.
In our X17 Poll asking readers if Dr. Murray should be found guilty, 53% of you said "yes" while 46% believe he's innocent.

It's the ultimate splurge for that diehard Malcolm in the Middle fan!
Former child star Frankie Muniz has just offered his Tuscan-style mansion in Scottsdale AZ for lease, and at just $7,250 a month it could be yours.
The actor paid $2,782,000 for the home in 2008, which sits on the northern slope of Scottsdale's Pinnacle Peak, behind 24-hour guarded gates in the Estancia Club -- an exclusive 18-hole golf resort that's only open to 325 members and their invited guests.
The lavish 6,195 square foot home boasts 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, a motor court, a three car garage, a swimming pool with mountain views, a state of the art gym, a home theater, a soaking tub for two and a built in barbecue station.
The newly-engaged star recently purchased a newly completed home about 23 miles south of his Scottsdale property, in an upscale neighborhood in Camelback Mountain in Phoenix.
The actor also owns a $3,499,000 pad in LA, which he's been leasing to Cee Lo Green for around $10,000 a month.

Think some of Hollywood's hottest A-list stars rake in way too much cash?
Forbes has just released a list of the most overpaid actors in Tinseltown, and after taking a look at this roster, some Hollywood execs may want to rethink those future paychecks!
Drew Berrymore topped the list as the most overpaid star -- for every $1 she's paid, her films return a measly 40 cents. Ouch.
On the other hand, for every $1 Reese Witherspoon makes, the Oscar winner's films earn around $3.55. Eddie Murphy averaged an impressive $2.70 return per film, thanks in part to the animated Shrek series.
Also on the list? Will Ferrell, Denzel Washington, Nicolas Cage, Adam Sandler, Vince Vaughn, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman take home the biggest paychecks in Hollywood.

It looks like Heidi Klum and darling daughters Lou and Leni aren't ready to say goodbye to Halloween just yet!
We spotted the supermodel mom sucking on a lollipop while taking her little girls on shopping trip (with candy pail!) in Santa Monica, on Thursday afternoon.
The Victoria's Secret Angel is known for her lavish annual Halloween bashes, and this year did not disappoint!
Klum stepped out in not one, but two horrific costumes this year. One showed off the Project Runway star's flawless 'bod (inside out!), while the model's monkey costume featured creepy prosthetic breasts.
No wonder Klum isn't ready to let go of Halloween just yet!

X Factor has been known as a reality series featuring live performances ... until now.
The hit FOX show is admitting that some of the performers do get vocal assistance from pre-recorded tracks.
In a statement, FOX says:
"All survival songs are performed live, with just a backing track. For the group ensemble performance, the vocals are prerecorded to allow acts to concentrate on preparing for their own live competitive performances on Wednesdays—this is also no different to what other competition shows do for ensemble performances."
The controversy surfaced after viewers noticed a group number, as well as contestant LeRoy Bell, were lip-syncing during several X Factor performances. Yikes!
