After a long delivery by the judge we learn that Dr. Murray might have been eligible for probation had he displayed remorse. However, Judge Pastor stated that Dr. Murray did not show remorse immediately after Jackson's death or during the trial. Also, Judge Pastor no longer had the power to sentence Dr. Murray to 4 years in prison due to some new law in Los Angeles. I think it has to do with overcrowding of the prisons.
When all is said and done, Dr. Murray could spend only 2 years in jail or 2 years of house arrest due to the jails being overcrowded, also.
Here is video footage of Judge Pastor sentencing Dr. Murray:
