Murray will not serve a day in prison.&amp;#160; Because of a new California law, any time he gets will be served in L.A. County Jail, and the amount of time will automatically be cut in half.&amp;#160; And, Murray would be eligible for house arrest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http://www.tmz.com/photos/2009/06/25/1941-remembering-michael-jackson\"&gt;&lt;img alt=\"1108_remembering_michael_jackson_footer\" src=\"http://ll-media.tmz.com/2011/07/28/0728-remembering-michael-jackson-footer-v2.jpg\" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!-- relatedlinks --&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
