conrad murray is waking up this morning in the l.a. county jail, now on a 24-hour medical watch, after the guilty verdict, his lawyers asked the judge to give him bail. the judge said no, called him a risk to the public and had murray led off in handcuffs. the trial lasted six weeks. it only took this jury a day and a half to find him guilty of involuntary manslaughter, that is criminal negligence led to the death of michael jackson. jackson fans cheered outside when the verdict was read. the jackson family says justice has been served here. this morning, we have a "today" exclusive for you, for the first time, conrad murray on camera, angry and emotional, describing michael jackson's final moments, blaming jackson's body guard for all the chaos. it's call for a new documentary airing later this week on msnbc. >> i told security to get the kids away from there, get the kids away from there because i did not want them to see their father getting cpr. >> kind of ushered them out and

said "kids don't worry, we'll take care of it. everything is going to be okay." >> and he says oh, "doctor, doctor, what happened?" i need help. i am doing cpr, mr. jackson is not breathing. call 911, i need you to call 911. >> we have a ja here that needs help and he's not breathing. >> in addition to me doing cpr, chest compression and trying to resuscitate this patient, he is, i'm controlling him on the 911 call. how old is this patient? 50. get the [ bleep ] over here. get here. i need you to come. come on. help me. >> so here is what comes next, murray will be sentenced on november 29th and the judge has full discretion here. he can give murray anything from probation up to four years in state prison and by the way,

natalie, legal experts say the fact the judge sent him right to jail monday after the verdict, not a great sign for murray at sentencing. >> jeff rossen you're doing a great job covering the trial in los angeles, thank you. this morning i spoke with michael flanagan, who believes murray was taken into medical watch after he was led from the courtroom in handcuffs. >> they did indicate in court that they were going to take him to the medical ward. i don't know if that's because of suicide watch or whether it's just for his self-protection. it might -- he might be exposed to violence if put in the main population. >> mr. flanagan added he feared fellow inmates who are fans of michael jackson might want to harm dr. murray in prison. gop presidential hopeful herman cain is on the defensive yet again today as a fourth woman has come forward saying that cain made an unwanted sexual advance on her back in 1997. sharon bialek described the incident in graphic detail on monday. in an appearance on "jimmy

chief medical editor. good morning to all of you.. >> hey tamron. >> i'm doing good. someone not doing good, conrad murray under medical observation after being carted off to jail, guilty in the death of michael jackson. star, were you surprised by the verdict? >> not surprised in the least bit. the prosecution put forth a methodical case. it was a building block of gross negligence, no question. with all the news that happened yesterday, you and i were chatting. i said the best thing that happened to herman cain was conrad murray, hands in cuffs beats hands unthe dress. >> only for a day. this story i don't think ever caught on with the media. >> we talked about it, i think the population -- >> there was an obvious outcome to the case. >> you think so? people thought after the portraying as the desperate -- >> it was global. the doctor being tried not so global. if you look at doctors making

errors, malpractice cases which are a violation of somebody versus this, there was no way to defend this kind of behavior. the only thing that surprised me is a physician was watching him being led away in handcuffs. >> that's what normally happens when the judge is going to signal to you, you are going to do some time. >> house arrest as rebbie jackson said was possibly an option. that's not an option in your opinion? >> the judge said we know what's happening in the california criminal justice system with people getting out earlier. >> overcrowding. >> this is the one thing that i can control. he will be in jail pending the sentence until november 29th. >> dr. snyderman we hear about the dr. feel goods in hollywood. does this send a warning shot? >> there are television anchors and movie stars, executives, country club medicine. you think you have a doctor on speed dial and you know what you want. you say i need a script for this or that. lousy medicine, a drug addict and that's what he was, he is

your patient, you have a responsibility, sometimes to walk away. >> i find obviously -- >> which the nurse did. >> i find interesting if i walk in a doctor's office and they recognize me, i almost have too much power at that point. why don't we try this. i don't want them to say okay. i think it's human nature, very interesting. >> there's a responsibility. >> he didn't work for michael jackson, he worked for the company, another problem there. >> there's going to be a lawsuit, i put my money on that. >> let's move on speaking of things that could turn legal and ugly. kim car dash yarkardashian's 20 ring. in order to keep the ring kim must pay kris humphries for the ring. don't give me that look, donny. >> guys, this is a very simple one. if the guy broke off the engagement you keep the ring. >> they were married. she sealed the deal. >> sealed the deal for 72 days, come on. let me finish. guys you're not letting me talk today. what's going on here? >> okay. >> the ridiculous thing is she ended it. give the ring back.

>> donny said the other day something about the fact she's hurt her brand. there are a couple of things here. first of all i think the ring is ugly so i wouldn't keep it anyway. >> turn it into something else. >> she has to do the classy thing show young girls it's not all about the money. do the right thing, give it back. bad karma. >> star? >> i want to let you no he we don't know what actually broke up the 72-day marriage. >> doesn't matter. >> what does the law say? >> it belongs to her. >> how about what's right and wrong. >> she didn't ask me what my moral course is. my moral core says give it back because you don't want to be with him anymore. 72 days they made a promise, she kept her ring. >> did you ever give the ring back? >> baby i'm wearing mine. what are you talking about? >> i gave mine back. >> i was married for three and a half years, this is the promise. >> first engagement called off, the lovely woman gave it back. >> where is that?

i'll take it. all right, let's talk about this next hot topic, chicken pox lollipops, one of the strangest things i've heard. heard of parents taking their children to parties to expose them to the measles, mumps, chicken pox. some parents are giving pox parties and letting their children have lollipops licked by children with chicken pox. this is a true thing. >> we have become crazy about vaccinations in this country. so we know that if you get chicken pox you're going to get lifelong immunity from the xh chicken pox. let me remind parents that every year in this country the equivalent of four kindergarten classes of kids die from chicken pox, so this is still a lethal disease. now the idea that you can transfer lollipops is not very sound. i'm not sure there's much virus in. >> hepatitis. >> this woman is practicing medicine without a license. >> not in a million years. >> it's creepy.

you cannot send in theory a disease over the mail. >> right. >> what's wrong with people? >> donny says what's wrong with people? why is this desperation out there? >> we're afraid of getting a shot. it's really this anti-vaccination crazy stuff but the idea that you would purposely infect a lollipop to protect other children it's bad science. >> last two, should a woman take her husband's last name? >> no. >> 70% felt a woman should change her name at marriage. half woman said it should be a state law. >> never be a state law. you can't force anybody to be somebody they're not. >> you are once you marry him. >> no, you can make your choice. >> change his name. i don't understand this, you grow up with a name, your identity is your name. i go through medical school and i'm dr. snyderman. why would i change my name. donny snyderman, how does that sound? >> i can't get a word in today. >> it's women, get over it, okay? >> how about we leave it up to

each woman? if she wants to change her name great, if not fine. >> everyone seems to want to turn their brown eyes blue so we had fun with you. >> i already have blue eyes. >> donny, you already have blue eyes. star you're the odd people out. >> girl, i don't want to have blue eyes. >> ooh baby, look at you. >> what am i going to do? that air brushed picture of me? >> controversial style for black women. >> it's $5,000, no the approved. don't do it. >> on that note, dr. snyderman, donny deutsche and star jones thank you. >> we'll let donny talk next time.
