MICHAEL JACKSON'S LAST VIDEOS BARRED FROM TRIAL

'NO GOOD REASON'

MICHAEL Jackson's last days will not be shown in the court case of his controversial doctor, a judge has ruled.  
Lawyers for Dr Conrad Murray had wanted to show some of the 100 hours of rehearsal footage which was not seen in the hit movie "This Is It" which they argued would show the singer in poor health in the days leading up to his death. 
But Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor denied their request, instead agreeing with with attorneys for Sony Pictures Entertainment that the clips have significant value and should not be publicly shown without a good reason.
He said: "There is absolutely nothing in those materials that could have been of assistance to the defense."
The judge reviewed several hours of the footage last week then canceled plans to travel to Sony Studios over the weekend to finish watching the rest of the film that attorneys wanted to use during the upcoming trial of Murray.
Deputy District Attorney David Walgren said the footage "demonstrated that Michael Jackson was optimistic, engaged, confident, physically well."
Jury selection is scheduled to begin on Sept. 8, for Murray, who has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter.
He denies giving Jackson a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol and other sedatives in the bedroom of his rented mansion days before he was scheduled to travel to London for a series of comeback concerts.

PERVERT PEDIATRICIAN MADE 'HOW TO' MOLEST BOOK

A PERVERT pediatrician accused of videotaping himself while he sexually abused young female patients made a "how-to-book" on molestation called "Sex" cops say. Dr Rakesh Punn allegedly drugged his victims, some of whom were as young as 11, and blindfolded them during the assaults. 
Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice has said most of Punn's patients were Indian and that as a physician he held a revered position in that community, where parents would trust him to examine their children in private. She added that after making them strip, he blindfolded them and placed them on the examining table, often giving them a sedative to knock them out. He would then videotape or photograph his sexual contact with them. In many instances, Punn would give the girls a sedative to render them
unconscious.
At other times, Punn allegedly placed a small digital camera among items on his desk and then recorded victims exposing their breasts.
Any pictures and video were then stored with the writings for his "book" which allegedly included his writings, plus passages from the ancient Indian sex manual, the Kama Sutra. 
He is also charged with making some of the girls sign a "contract" saying they were 18 years old and willing to perform numerous sexual acts. 
The 53-year-old  has pleaded not guilty Friday to a 60-count indictment charging him with sexual abuse, assault, promoting a sexual performance by a child and unlawful surveillance.
Punn also is charged with running a prescription scam for obtaining chloral hydrate, a controlled substance that Nassau County Assistant District Attorney Jane Zwirn-Turkin described as a "date-rape" drug.
County Court Judge William O'Brien agreed with prosecutor's assertions that he may be a flight risk, setting a $10 million bond or $5 million cash bail.
