Michael Jackson’s Autopsy Completed
Posted by Adam
Michael Jackson‘s autopsy has been completed.
The L.A. County Coroner says there was no trauma to Michael’s body and “no indication of foul play”.
The coroner said that Michael had been taking “some prescription medications.”
The coroner said the cause of death was deferred because additional testing — including toxicology and other tests — is needed. It will take 4-6 weeks to complete.
He said Michael was pronounced dead in the emergency room of UCLA. Jackson’s body will be released after 6 PM, according to TMZ.
Jackson’s family are now grasping for answers.
“That’s what we’re trying to find out right now,” Jackson’s father, Joe Jackson, told People magazine when asked about reports his son’s death was tied to prescription drugs. “We’re trying to find out that information. When we find it out, we’ll know.”
“There’s a lot to be told, though, I’ll tell you that right now. The truth!” he says. “The truth is still to be told.”
The Sun newspaper reported Friday that Jackson collapsed and stopped breathing after an injection of a powerful painkiller named Demerol, which is similar to morphine, and it is feared he took an overdose.
Jackson had three children — Michael Joseph Jackson Jr, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince Michael Jackson II.
