The defense team of Dr. Conrad Murray, the physician of the late entertainer, Michael Jackson, who died of a pharmaceutical drug overdose under his care, is in hot water with animal rights groups, for testing the potent anesthetic Propofol on dogs, in preparation for their case. 

The Beagle breed was used as their test subjects. Jackson was an animal lover and so is his family. Any animal lovers on the jury during Murray's involuntary manslaughter trial will not be amused at this news, as the entire experiment seems so unnecessary. I don't know why the defense and Dr. Murray thought this would help their case.
