Jackson's Body Covered With Injection Marks!

Filed under: Drugs > Michael Jackson

michael_jackson_roundup_04_1.jpg

Due to an ongoing battle with insomnia, Michael Jackson became dependent on the potent drug Propofol, which is used to induce unconsciousness in pre-op patients.

It is becoming more obvious that the drug may have caused his death.

Jackson had dozens of injection sites on his body, which leads to speculation that Michael found a doctor to prescribe copious amounts of Propofol and recklessly administer it at home.

If it was the drug that caused Michael's fatal cardiac arrest, the doctor responsible would most likely be brought up on charges for criminal manslaughter.

    Oh Perez, you cant prescribe Propofol! You cant just write a PR for it and go to a drug store and take it out… which means if he got a batch of it, likely is that you wont be able to trace it to anyone… Silly Perez, but I still luv ya

    First



  4. 4

    So sad to turn to drugs. He was probably was hungry. Maybe he should've ate some turkey or chicken.



  5. 5

    Yes, the doctor's are wrong to keep supplying addicts with drugs, but sending them to jail? I'm just not sure how I feel about that. Everyone is responsible for their own decisions and MJ clearly wanted to be sedated….ALOT.



  6. 6

    perez- do a little research. propofol isn't injected like a shot. it has to be administered through an IV because it's not water soluble. "multiple injection sites" wouldn't be from propofol abuse.



  7. 7

    Wow shocking…



  8. 8

    Well, at least now he will stop blowing Bubbles. Michael Jackson #MJ's



  9. 9

    Just let the man rest in peace…

    I guess my message offended. Its not up there?



  13. 13

    *sigh* i just hope that all the controversy passes soon enough and we can all focus on the talent instead of the drama of MJ.



  14. 14

    NEEDLESS TO SAY, BUT I WILL ANYWAY, AMERICA'S MEDICAL SITUATION IS A CROCK…WE ARE ONE OF THE MOST AFFULENT COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD AND WE HAVE ONE OF THE WORST HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS IMAGINABLE….INSURANCE IS WAY TOO COSTLY FOR MOST, DOCTORS AND NURSES ARE IN SHORT SUPPLY…MOST OF WHICH ARE THERE, ARE STILL DECADES BEHIND ON NEW TREATMENTS AND DIAGNOSIS…ALOT ARE ONLY CONCERNED WITH RATHER OR NOT THEY ARE GOING TO GET PAID….(IM NOT SAYING THAT ALL DOCTORS ARE LIKE THIS, BUT LIKE IT OR NOT, IT IS THE CASE MORE OFTEN THAN NOT) HOW MANY PPL DO U KNOW THAT ARE HAVING FINANCIAL TROUBLES, THAT CANT AFFORD HEALTH INSURANCE, THAT CANT GET SEEN BY A DOCTOR BECAUSE THEY CANT AFFORD TO PAY…THAT ARENT TAKING ARE OF THEIR HEALTH LIKE THEY SHOULD BE BECAUSE THEY CANT AFFORD IT…JUST LIKE LESS FORTUNATE COUNTRIES, AMERICA'S QUALITY OF LIFE IS DEMINISHING….WE NEED OWN GOVERNMENT TO GET REAL GOALS ON HOW TO FIX THIS CRISIS, NOT JUST FOR THE HERE AND NOW AND NOT JUST FOR THE MIDDLE AND UPPER CLASS, BUT FOR EVERYONE AND FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS….WE NEEDS TO ENCOURAGE MORE PPL TO LOOK FOR CAREERS IN THE HEALTH INDUSTRY INSTEAD OF BUSINESS AND COMPUTERS…AND THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO HELP MORE PPL TO ATTAIN THOSE CAREER GOALS WITH MORE HELP IN HIGHER EDUCATION AND GETTING PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND HEALTH IN SCHOOLS.

    just so sad on so many levels. I wish I could turn back time =(



  18. 18

    insomnia my ass! when these "stars" realize they are not above death they will stop seeking doctors to prescribe them such deadly cocktails. m.j. knew he was playing with death and chose to ignore the risks. too bad, but not very sad….. now let's all move along and stop talking about this freak.



  19. 19

    michael inJection



  20. 20

    that anesthetic stuff through an IV, is not like even sleeping, is like knocking yourself out , and it needs to be breathing controled, ie, with a plastic tube down your throat to make yourself breath, you cant just do that by yourself, that is just killing yourself.
    who would let someone do this.??
    maybe the so called doctor sat with him while he """slept"" …….



  21. 21

    poor mj. if a bunch of little jerks accused me of diddling them i'd want to go to sleep too.



  22. 22

    are you just gonna keep rehashing old stories? this was released 5 days ago.



  23. 23

    Re: UrMajestyMsG – two corrections that i must make on my preceeding statement…our** government…not own…..and we need* to encourage, not needs…..lol…sometimes i type so fast and am thinking so fast that i get carried away and get a lil ghetto with my pronunciations….lol



  24. 24

    Propofol is not just used for IV sedation. It *can* also be used recreationally. Propofol is a very interesting drug that has many uses… it can be used for both long-term and short-term sedation, and even though it isn't an analgesic like morphine, for example, it's sedative-like properties can cause a euphoric effect. So yes, it is possible that MJ abused propofol.



  25. 25

    Perez, you shouldn't post anything about Michael Jackson's death unless you apologize for accusing him to fake his death to get publicity for his show. Once and for all, take responsibility for your words.



  26. 26

    if the died due to drugs. Then, i don't feel sorry for him. He's just like any other Heath Ledger.



  27. 27

    Re: BetterFasterStronger
    I agree he didn't even post anything to apologize like nobody seen it



  28. 28

    take a vacation mario. You need it



  29. 29

    Re: tac3068 – Injection sites are injection sites whether they are I.V. or not. If they were I.V., they would be over or near veins. If they were subcutaneous, they could be anywhere and if they were intramuscular, they would likely be on the outside of his arm or on the thigh or buttocks. So they could have been IV sites.



  30. 30

    Soooo Sad

    What a waste of Talent!



  31. 31

    Yiiikes.



  32. 32

    This is yesterday morning's news sweetie. And also proven wrong.



  33. 33

    I feel really sorry for Michael, Yes he was very eccentric but let's not forget all the good things he did and the great music and shows he gave to the world. RIP MICHAEL



  34. 34

    If in fact this drug was the cause of Michael Jackson's death then the doctor that provided it is indeed criminally liable and deserves jail time just to serve notice to all the doctors abusing their privilege to prescribe medications.

    By all accounts this was not something that would have ever been prescribed - I am not sure if the average doctor could just order this from a supplier either so something smells rotten in Hollywood doctorland.



  35. 35

    it is a god damn shame that people cannot show a little respect for dead icon. They want to create sensational stories to make money. Absolutely scandalous and extremely pathetic. Michael Jackson gave so much to our world and now look at the like of Perez Hilton (Mario) what they have to offer in return. Who is the hot mess here?



  36. 36

    I really have to say I am disappointed in the coverage of Michael Jackson. He was a man and a person. We need to let him rest in peace. Let's just leave him alone.



  37. 37

    i'm so glad hes finally out of this world. he had a veryyyyy sick head. there was no saving him. EVER.



  38. 38

    Re: UrMajestyMsG – I Agree 100% #14



  39. 39

    i think a lot on docs are gonig to be getting their licenses overturned because theres no way that all these drugs were being supplied by only one doctors prescriptions!

  40. RN says – reply to this

    I have administered Propofol as a nurse.I could only do it with a physician present in a patient with an artificial airway such as a tracheastomy(and on a ventilator) and on a continous cardiac monitor with automatic blood pressure monitoring.The drug wears off in only about 2 minutes,it is temporary anesthesia. It should only be given in an ICU hospital setting with full emergency code blue capabilities.Whoever allowed him to have this drug in his home should be facing a murder charge.



  41. 41

    Ummm Dr. Perez can we let the people whose job it is to make those conclusions do that?



  42. 42

    I find it almost humorous that my post regarding the poor decisions and character of the physicians surrounding Michael Jackson neglected to show up earlier when I posted. For someone so adamant concerning freedom of speech, you sure are a hypocrite.



  43. 43

    sleep, nah trying to forget is more like it!



  44. 44

    If this is true,I hope the Dr. goes to jail!



  45. 45

    Still speculation ,however ,if a doctor DID give him this medicine and it is in the toxicology report..I hope they bury him under the jail.
    RIP Michael.
