By: Dylan Kingsberry Dr Conrad Murray discovered this young woman's pulse was very weak while flying aboard flight 641 departing from Houston, relying on training and instinct Dr Murray immediately resorted to the supplies found in the on flight medical bag. Finding an IV line he quickly connected it to his unconscious patient and continued to monitor her until the plane was diverted to Albuquerque, New Mexico, his spokeswoman explained. "We're not surprised" proclaimed Miranda Sevcik, a member of Murray's legal team representing him in his involuntary manslaughter case. "He's a good Doctor, we've always said he was a good doctor, and that's what good Doctors do is save people." The young lady, Murray explained this woman was 23 years of age and traveling with an 11 month old baby, was met by paramedics at the airport gate in Albuquerque and taken to hospital, Sevcik said. Following the off loading of the injured young woman and her child the plane then continued on to it's destination of Phoenix, Arizona, where Murray was scheduled to meet with his legal team. US Airways officials confirmed a civilian doctor on-board had helped stabilize a patient who required medical attention. Spokesman Todd Lehmacher explained it was against US Airway policy to divulge the identity of the patient or the attending Doctor. TMZ.com not surprisingly was the first source to report Dr Murray's involvement. The untimely death of the King of Pop last June has been partially blamed on DR Murray due to him administering the anesthetic propofol which was found to contribute to the passing of Jackson, Murray explained to police, this was a normal treatment for Jackson's insomnia. Conrad, 57, was charged with involuntary manslaughter in February. He has pleaded not guilty and was released on $75,000 bail. http://hummingbird- End
