Los Angeles County District Attorney"s Office...
Though Jackson"s personal physician, Conrad Murray, is seen as a prime suspect in the case, the officials did not specify the type of charges or who would be charged.
"A case will be filed on Monday, February 8... Information on charges and the scheduled arraignment will be released after the case is filed," the statement reads.
The U.S. media has earlier announced that charges against Murray might be filed on Friday. The physician denies any involvement, saying that he did not prescribe any medicines that might have caused the death.
CNN has earlier reported, citing a law enforcement source, that Murray"s lawyers and prosecutors had been negotiating Thursday to have Murray turn himself in, but those negotiations failed.
"I don"t know what part of negotiations could have broken down, in light of the fact that we"ve placed ourselves in the hands of law enforcement to surrender at any time," Murray"s lawyer, Ed Chernoff, was quoted by the channel as saying.
