Actually to me it looks more like a  CMYK -> RGB conversion!

First lets get IM at least reading the image right!

does this display the image correctly?
  convert original_cmyk.pdf x:
what about
  convert original_cmyk.pdf -colorspace RGB x:
and
  convert original_cmyk.pdf -set colorspace CMYK -colorspace RGB x:

That last reads in the image forces IM to think of it as CMYK 
then converts it to RGB to display

When you have it in memory right then you can try to write it as JPEG!
