Seven doctors and one nurse being investigated by California authorities in connection with the death of Michael Jackson have been cleared of any wrongdoing, reports CNN.

Cristina Gasparac, spokeswoman for California Attorney General Jerry Brown, reportedly stated that the eight suspects will not face criminal prosecution, due to insufficient evidence.

Only one doctor, who admitted prescribing drugs to Jackson before the star’s death, could face disciplinary action from the California Medical Board. Jackson was known to have sought prescriptions under several fake names and reportedly obtained meds from the doctor in question using an alias.

Gasparac stated that, “After reviewing hundreds of pages of records and documents obtained from the medical practitioners, the attorney general’s office has referred one doctor, who wrote prescriptions to an alias known to have been used by Jackson, to the California medical board for further review.”

Gasparac was reporting the results of an extensive probe that does not include Dr. Conrad Murray, who has been officially charged with involuntary manslaughter in the pop icon’s death.

Jackson’s official cause of death was ruled to be an overdose of Propofol, a powerful anaesthetic.

A separate report cited by CNN noted that Lorazepam, an anti anxiety drug, could also have been a contributing factor in Jackson’s death.
