MORE OF THE MICHAEL JACKSON STORY UNFOLDS




You know the week can't start out right without discussing the latest details in the Michael Jackson case.


Michael's death could very well turn into a criminal investigation according to LA Police Chief William Bratton.


Bratton told CNN that his department is awaiting the coroner's final report to decide whether to proceed with the investigation as a homicide case or as an accidental drug overdose.

  • Dr. Conrad Murray and Dr. Arnold Klein have not been cooperating with authorities police say. The two were asked to hand over all of their documents and files to investigators but both failed to give up all their information.


As previously stated, Jackson had dozens of injection marks and punctures all over his body the day he died. Law enforcement sources say that some of the injections were old and some were fresh. They were found on his upper arms, upper legs, ankles, inside around his knees and the neck.


  • A doctor who treated Michael claimed the singer self-injected Demerol into his system.
  • Retired L.A. County Sheriff's deputy Michael Laperruque who worked as Jackson's security said some doctors were trying to get Jackson off of Demerol, and that one of the doctor's in Santa Barbara "was upset with him because he had been self-injecting."

    Laperruque told detectives he had picked up Jackson's prescriptions for the singer, usually under the name Chris Carter. Carter was one of Jackson's bodyguards.

    Laperruque also told detectives one time when he was at Neverland his job was to keep Jackson's family out because they were planning an intervention.
  • Most of the prescriptions for Michael were under different aliases & his security and whoever was around would be the ones to go pick them up.




His three children, originally scheduled for a hearing this morning, has been postponed for a week. The move was requested by both Katherine Jackson, who was awarded temporary guardianship, and Debbie Rowe, Jackson's ex-wife and the mother of Prince Michael and Paris Jackson.



And lastly, during the 2003search of Neverland Ranch, investigators found this in his home:


  • A vial of Versed -- a powerful sedative
  • Several IV bags containing "a milky white fluid, located in a small cardboard box on top of the bathtub." Propofol and other anesthesias are milky white.
  • A vial of Promethazine -- an antihistamine with strong sedative effects
  • A generic for of Xanax
  • A bottle of Percocet
  • A syringe
  • A vial with Demerol in it
  • Numerous loose pills outside bottles
  • A bottle of Prednisone -- a steroid
  • Ery-tab -- an antibiotic
  • Prescriptions for Xanax that had been filled
  • Oxygen tanks
  • IV stands



This is all just too much. . . so freakin tragic!!! I'm just picturing Michael rolling around the IV stands filled with anesthics or him just laying in bed with an IV connected to his body. . . so so so sad! =*(

THE KING OF POP DEATH UPDATES



So I was waiting until today to post what's been going on with new details about MJ's death.



First, Michael's live-in doctor who has been identified as Dr. Conrad Murray has been found and will cooperate with law enforcements. An autopsy was conducted on Friday on MJ's body and the results had no signs of any foul play. However, the Jackson family has requested for a 2nd autopsy, which was done yesterday. No word yet on the results. Even so, the toxicology tests won't be done for a couple of weeks so until those results come out, we won't know the actual cause of death.



The cause of death is important in regards to the concert promoters for Michael Jackson's 50 show comeback tour. Now that Michael has passed away, they're left to refund money to all the concert go-ers, but how much is to be paid back and how much they're losing, all depends on how Michael died in accordance to their insurance contract. Here are some photos of the preparation behind the tour. The dancers all said they were floored by Mike's ability to do the same moves that made him famous again:





The cause of death will play an important factor in Dr. Conrad Murray's role as well. The Texas certified physician is denying that he played any part in Michael's death and that he is certain he is not responsible. Murray's attorney says that the LAPD doesn't consider Dr. Murray a suspect but needs his help in piecing together what occurred on the day leading up to Mike's death.



So rumors of him being the reason Mike died is ruled out.. for now. Joe Jackson, Michael's father, has been very open about not trusting Dr. Murray and feels that the doctor is not in the clear yet! It's kind of fishy that 11 days before Michael's death, Dr. Murray sent a personal letter to all of his clientele, stating that he will no longer be their physician and is leaving his private practice indefinitely.



The Jackson family issued a statement to the press:


In one of the darkest moments of our lives we find it hard to find the words appropriate to this sudden tragedy we all had to encounter. Our beloved son, brother and father of three children has gone so unexpectedly, in such a tragic way and much too soon. It leaves us, his family, speechless and devastated to a point, where communication with the outside world seems almost impossible at times.

“We miss Michael endlessly, our pain cannot be described in words. But Michael would not want us to give up now. So we want to thank all of his faithful supporters and loyal fans worldwide, you - who Michael loved so much. Please do not despair, because Michael will continue to live on in each and every one of you. Continue to spread his message, because that is what he would want you to do. Carry on, so his legacy will live forever.

“In addition, Joseph Jackson wishes to personally convey: ‘My grandchildren are deeply moved by all the love and support you have shown for them and their father, Michael Jackson.’”




Some candid pics of Mike with his children (yes unmasked).


Many were wondering what was going to happen to his children. The Jackson family has expressed that the children will be kept with their family, even though Debbie Rowe is their mother (yall know about that whole drama years ago).


His children is left in great hands because reports are saying that Michael Jackson kept a secret library of over 100 songs that he planned on releasing after his death, but only for his children! Sp financially, they should be alright and as far as his estate, he left that to his brother Randy.


More updates to come.

FOXY BROWN GOT SPECIAL TREATMENT WHILE IN JAIL???



People are fuming over the fact that Brooklyn rapper Foxy Brown may have gotten special treatment while incarcerated at Riker's Island for violating her probation in several high profile assault cases in 2006, unlike her rap mate/rival Lil Kim!


The New York Corrections Department has finally issued a statement addressing the issue and denied that she received preferential treatment while in jail.

The New York Post reported first that prison officials hung out in Foxy's cell, brought her meals and make up, gave her unlimited TV and phone privileges and even let a photo shoot for XXL magazine happen while she was serving nine months at Riker's .

Department Spokesman Stephen Morello responded, "Inmates were entitled to wear their own clothing. That's her choice. The interviews were approved by the (Department of Correction's) Department of Media Services. We do it as a matter of routine."


She lucked out being able to wear her Fendi scarves and Versace shades. Can't be mad. But it definitely ain't right!
