Conrad Murray and Janet Jackson's ex-husband James DeBarge enjoy double-date lunch in Beverly Hills

The doctor convicted of Michael Jackson's death and Janet Jackson's ex-husband formed an odd pairing on Tuesday as they went to lunch with their girlfriends in Beverly Hills, California.
Conrad Murray, 61, walked next to former jail neighbour James DeBarge, 50, as they grabbed lunch during a double-date to the Crustacean seafood restaurant.
Murray was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in November 2011 for the June 25, 2009 death of pop superstar Michael.

He served two years in prison and was in the same Los Angeles County Jail cell block as DeBarge who served time after being arrested on drug and assault charges.
Murray was dressed in spring colours for the lunch outing in yellow trousers and a white dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up.
