The autopsy results have not been made public to determine whether Michael Jackson was killed but things don’t sound right about the sudden death of a 50 year old man who looked healthy 48 hours before he died in his sleep.
JOE JACKSON DISCUSSES MICHAEL JACKSON’S DEATH ON NIGHTLINE
Los Angeles’ top cop said on Thursday night that homicide has not been ruled out in the death of Michael Jackson as investigators subpoenaed the pop icon’s medical records.
“Are we dealing with homicide? Are we dealing with an accidental overdose? What are we dealing with? So as we are standing here speaking, I can tell you, I don’t have that information,” Police Chief Bill Bratton said on CNN.
His comment came as Joe Jackson revealed his own suspicions about his son’s death.
“I do believe it was foul play,” Jackson told ABC News’ “Nightline.”
Depending on “corroboration from the coroner’s office as to the cause of death,” Bratton suggested the investigation could lead to criminal charges. Detectives are focusing on five doctors who had treated Jackson in the past and whether they supplied him with the powerful sedative Diprivan.
Bratton said the federal Drug Enforcement Agency and the state attorney general’s office, which keeps a database of prescription drugs, are assisting.
One of the doctors being scrutinized is Jackson’s dermatologist Arnold Klein, his attorney, Richard Charnley, confirmed to the Daily News.
