Reports Claim Michael Collapsed After Demerol Shot, Police Search For Doctor


Michael Jackson allegedly collapsed shortly after an injection of the painkiller Demerol, reports the Sun newspaper who was able to get unnamed sources to share information on the singer's final moments.

An Emergency Room source at UCLA hospital said Michael's aides told medics he had collapsed after an injection of potent Demerol — similar to morphine.

“Shortly after taking the Demerol he started to experience slow shallow breathing," a source said. “His breathing gradually got slower and slower until it stopped.

“His staff started mouth-to-mouth and an ambulance was called which got there in eight minutes “But found he was in full respiratory arrest, no breathing and no pulse. They started full CPR and rushed him to hospital.

“When he arrived they started resuscitation, giving him heart shocks and inserted a breathing tube and other supportive measures to try and save his life.

“He never regained consciousness. The family was told that he had passed.”

Investigators are looking to question Michael's personal physician who was treating - and might have prescribed Demerol, which Michael was self-injecting, according to reports. According to TMZ, that doctor's name is Conrad Robert Murray and he was living in Michael's home. His car was towed away from the singer's home last night by by investigators.

"We have not been able to interview the doctor yet. His car was impounded because it may contain medications or other evidence that may assist the coroner in determining the cause of death," Los Angeles police spokeswoman Karen Rayner

She stressed that Dr. Murray was not under criminal investigation but coroner's investigators wanted to contact him.
