At 2:26 pm on June 25, 2009, the University of California Medical Center in Los Angeles announced that the "pop giant" Michael Jackson, who was admitted to the hospital more than an hour ago die. Cause of death : Heart attack .
This news quickly spread in various media around the world, and many magazines, newspapers, and Internet media in my impression are reporting this event at a large scale, summarizing this superstar, great philanthropist, and great artist. , once brought the world's moving and regret. Of course, the most talked about is the mystery of his death.
On July 7, 700,000 fans and stars from all over the world rushed to the memorial service in Los Angeles to bid farewell to the Uranus superstar. A billion viewers around the world tuned in to the live broadcast of the memorial service. The scene and scale of
are not inferior to the funeral of Princess Diana .
Just when everyone was immersed in the grief of losing the superstar, Jackson 's family suddenly said:
Jackson did not die of a heart attack, but was murdered!
Jackson's autopsy report
Police immediately stepped in and began investigating Jackson's cause of death. So who killed Jackson?
The autopsy report provided by the police concluded that the autopsy results showed that Jackson did not cause the trauma and disease that caused the death, but the toxicology study showed that the blood samples of the deceased contained high concentrations of , propofol, , and benzodiazepine antidepressants. drug.
Propofol: A short-acting intravenous anesthetic frequently used in hospital surgery to induce and maintain general anesthesia. It is characterized by fast onset, short duration, quick recovery of patients, and few adverse reactions. So it is affectionately called "little milk" by anesthesiologists and surgeons.
Benzodiazepines: a central nervous system depressant used clinically as a sedative-hypnotic drug.
The side effect of these two drugs is that they are addictive, especially propofol, which can cause cardiac arrest if the dose is too large.
So, on August 28 of that year, the LAPD coroner confirmed that Jackson wasn't a normal death, it was a murder. And his personal doctor, Conrad Murray, was suspicious.
Jackson's family also accused him of providing and injecting destructive drugs to Michael Jackson for a long time, which eventually led to Jackson's overdose and death.
The Last Timeline of Jackson's Life
- Afternoon of June 24, 2009:
Jackson dined with his children for the last time in his life at the mansion he rented in Holmby Hills, Los Angeles.
According to his chef: He is in very good shape and looks energetic.
- 18:30 PM:
Jackson arrives at Staples Sports Center in downtown Los Angeles. He's here with his team for the final rehearsal for a world tour called "This Is It" that begins in London in July.
This concert tour is a world tour for his comeback and farewell to the music world. It is very important to him and he calls it "the final curtain call".
and the enthusiasm of the fans also led to an increase in the number of tours from the originally planned 10 to 50. On the night of
, many rehearsal participants said: Jackson is in very good shape, he is full of passion.
- June 2500:30AM:
Jackson returns to the mansion and enters the room after briefly saying hi to the fans waiting at the door.
And Dr. Conrad Murray was already waiting for him.
Conrad Murray: Cardiologist at Las Vegas has a private practice.
The tour's organizer, AEG, hired him for $150,000 a month as Jackson's personal doctor, in order to ensure that he would survive 50 concerts.
Because, at this stage, Jackson's physical condition is not very good, and his insomnia problem has reached the point where he can't sleep at all. Jackson, who is 1.78 meters tall, was tortured to only 70 pounds.
According to findings released by police after the incident, Dr. Murray gave Jackson 10 mg of Valium at 1:30 a.m. to help him fall asleep. But until 2 a.m., Jackson still couldn't sleep, settle down, and it didn't work at all.
Dr. Murray injected him with 2 mg of "lorazepam," which is also a sedative-hypnotic drug.
But, it's 3am and Jackson still can't sleep. Dr. Murray gave him another 2 mg of midazolam, which is also a sedative.
It was 5:00 in the morning, and it was getting brighter, but Jackson was still on the bed with big eyes.
The feeling of insomnia, everyone who has experienced it knows that life is better than death.
So, Jackson, who couldn't resist the suffering, asked Dr. Murray to give him "little milk" as soon as possible.
Before that, Dr. Murray had injected Jackson with "propofol" for 60 consecutive days. There was no suspense. Jackson was addicted to this anesthetic.
Dr. Murray thought about it, but rejected Jackson's request and injected him with 2ml of "lorazepam".
went on like this until 7:30 in the morning, but it still didn't work. 2ml of "midazolam" was injected into Jackson's vein again.
Speaking of this, do you also think that such a medication method is absolutely not dared by ordinary doctors.
On December 21, 2012, I broke my leg and was in the hospital waiting for my surgery to be scheduled.
Every night in the dead of night, the corridors of the ward echoed with my miserable screams, begging for painkillers, but the doctor said that there was only one injection, and that too much would affect the anesthesia of the operation.
Initially, this needle lasted for half an hour to 40 minutes, and I could sleep for a while, but on the fourth day, this needle lasted for about 15 minutes.
Therefore, the doctors in the hospital will not indiscriminately use these kinds of drugs on the patients.
Our doctor Murray, according to his words: At this time, he also started to be afraid.
However, until 10:40 in the morning, Jackson, who had not slept all night, was already extremely irritable. He asked Dr. Murray again to inject him with milk, and he wanted to sleep.
Dr. Murray complied with his request this time, injected him with 25 mg of "propofol" , and this amount was only half of the previous dose.
After a few minutes, Jackson finally fell asleep.
At 10:50 AM, Morrie left the room and went to the bathroom, which took about 2 minutes.
But when he came back, he found that Jackson was not breathing. He immediately injected Jackson with 0.2 mg of "flumazenil" to counteract the effects of the sedative drug.
and give Jackson CPR. It's just that his cardiopulmonary resuscitation method is not the same as the standard.Place Jackson on a flat surface, but place one hand on Jackson's back and press with the other on his chest.
His cowardly manipulation is obviously not the practice of a qualified doctor.
also, he did not call 911 at this time, made 3 calls at 11:18, and it didn't end until 12:05, which lasted 47 minutes.
It wasn't until 12:22pm when Jackson's security finally called 911 and the ambulance arrived seven minutes later.
After two rounds of first aid, Jackson still has no breathing or pulse.
Actually, Jackson had stopped breathing for an hour and a half at this point.
But at this point, Dr. Murray told paramedics that he could still feel a weak pulse in Jackson's thigh area and insisted that Jackson be taken to the hospital.
At 1:13 p.m., Jackson was taken to UCLA Medical Center.
And Murray didn't tell the hospital doctor that he injected Jackson with propofol.
's trial of doctor Murray
It is obvious that Murray used anesthetic drugs in violation of regulations, delayed the alarm time, concealed the medication, and who were the three 47-minute phone calls? He couldn't get away from Jackson's death.
Dr Murray said: "He loves Jackson because of their friendship for 3 years. He didn't want to see his friend suffer from insomnia, so he finally injected him with "propofol".
The Murray doctor also recorded Jackson's conversation before giving him the "propofol" injection.
The doctor also said that when he left Jackson's room and went to the bathroom, Jackson woke up and took an excessive amount of propofol. He didn't kill Jackson.
Then again, the doctor made three phone calls after finding out Jackson wasn't breathing, all to his friends, and even talking to his girlfriend in the ambulance.
On February 8, 2010, Murray was arraigned in Los Angeles District Court.
Prosecutors charge Murray with manslaughter in Jackson's death. Murray's lawyer defended his innocence. After paying 75,000 bail, he was released on bail pending trial. This time, the judge ruled that Murray was not guilty of manslaughter.
Jackson's family appealed.
On September 27, 2011, Jackson's death case was tried again. It ended on November 1. A total of 49 witnesses appeared in court.
At 1pm on November 7, the court made a final verdict: Jackson's personal physician, Conrad Murray, was responsible for Jackson's death, and he was found guilty of "manslaughter."
Murray's approach is a gross departure from the standard of care a physician provides for a patient and constitutes an insult to the profession of a physician. The judge said: "Murray was attracted by Michael Jackson's money, and what he did was a crazy "drug-for-money" act.
Murray was eventually sentenced to four years and had his medical license revoked. Jackson's family expressed satisfaction with the judge's decision.
However, Morrie was finally released after only two years in prison.
So "he's just a scapegoat" adds another layer of fog to Jackson's death.
Jackson family sues entertainment company
In 2013, Jackson's 83-year-old mother represented Jackson's three children and the entertainment company AEG went to court in Los Angeles.
The Jackson family believes: AEG was negligent in hiring Dr. Murray, turned a blind eye to Jackson's physical condition, and continued to force him to perform thisDeadly Tour. is seeking $1 billion in damages from AEG.
On June 11, 2013, the case was heard again in Los Angeles.
Jackson's eldest son Prince Jackson, 16, said:
AEG owner Randy Phillips and former agent Dr. Tomei pressured his debt-ridden father to bring Jackson to the brink of collapse. He saw with his own eyes that his father was very disturbed after answering the calls from the two of them. Sometimes he would cry when he hung up the phone, and even said " they are going to kill themselves."
However, AEG put the blame entirely on Jackson himself and Dr. Murray.
On October 2, 2013, a Los Angeles court ruled against the Jackson family.
This is the general situation of Michael Jackson's death and lawsuit. It seems that there is an answer to Jackson's death here: Doctor Morrie's negligence is the direct cause of Jackson's death.
did not seem to have found a definite answer: did AEG, the organizer of , put pressure on Jackson for its own interests? If won the lawsuit, does that mean they really have no responsibility? What role do
and that Doctor Tomei play?
Also, what did Jackson refer to when he mentioned in the recording of the phone call that someone wanted to kill him? The reason for the length of
cannot be expanded here. But it doesn't matter, Michael Jackson, the pop music giant, his life is full of all kinds of rumors and all kinds of fans:
bleached his skin, two cases of child molestation, excessive plastic surgery, lung cancer, drug use, and even He's just suspended animation, blah, blah, blah.
However, most of these rumors are rumors or framed, and Jackson has been treated unfairly.
Anyone who really knows him knows that he is a person with a pure heart, a moral person, a person who knows gratitude, and a person who benefits the people.
Then I'd really like to know about Jackson's story, and his fans. If you are also interested, then pay attention, I will prepare the material, and we will release the sequel. The real legends of
, they will suffer pain and controversy all their lives! In the end, there is still a mystery waiting for the world to unravel.
Michael Jackson is that legend.
wish he was there and had a better life!
