Officially Announced Cause of Michael’s Death

Yesterday, the coroner’s office officially announced that “Michael Jackson’s death was a homicide, and the main cause was the presence of a lethal amount of the anesthetic propofol, as well as the sedative lorazepam. Other drugs found in Michael’s blood at the time of death include midazolam, diazepam, lidocaine, and ephedrine.” This official statement described the cause of death as “an overdose” or a cardiac arrest resulting from excessive drug use.

Michael’s doctor, Conrad Murray, may soon be arrested on charges of involuntary manslaughter or another crime. But Conrad Murray is not the only person in this case. In the latest report released by the media, the name of Dr. Arnold Klein appears as the physician who prescribed Michael the sleeping pills Valium and midazolam.

According to Fox News, during an inspection of Mickey Fine’s pharmacy in Beverly Hills last Friday, 60 prescriptions and 29 medical files belonging to Michael Jackson were found, bearing Arnold Klein’s stamp. Michael’s medical files were either in his name or used an alias for them.

In this regard, on Friday, the Los Angeles district attorney’s office announced that, at the request of local police, it will begin an independent investigation into the death of the pop music superstar. The investigation will include questioning all doctors who, in one way or another, were connected to Michael Jackson and whose names appeared in the Los Angeles police files after his death.
