Michael Jackson was given Propofol

CNN and the AP have confirmed now that Michael Jackson was administered Propofol 24 Hours before his death. TMZ is saying the cops knew all along because Dr. Murray told them he gave it to Michael Jackson in one of his interviews.

Here is what appears to have happened. Michael Jackson was taking Propofol regularly to fall asleep and Dr. Conrad Murray was the one who would administer it to him. The administration of Propofol is extremely dangerous and Dr. Murray may have done it without the use of of an EKG or pulse oximeter which could have sounded a warning had Michael Jackson been in danger.

Dr. Murray may have fallen asleep or simply wasn't paying attention but whenever it was that he went back to attend Michael Jackson, he might have already been dead. At this point Dr. Murray tries to revive him, even in the presence of one of Michael Jackson's children and calls 911.

Dr. Murray says that he called 911 thirty minutes after he found him not breathing and that alone is very suspicious. The timeline is in question and will probably be very important to acquire a conviction. Three hours before Dr. Murray called 911, two of his staffers went to a storage facility and took some boxes with files. This could be entirely coincidental and completely unrelated but if the time of death for Michael Jackson is earlier then we think, then the information in those boxes could be extremely important.

When the paramedics arrived Michael Jackson was already dead and wanted to declare the time of death. Dr. Murray overruled them and doctors did not declare the time of death until he was already at the hospital. Dr. Murray still tried to revive him at this point according to TMZ.

After one of the interviews with Dr. Murray,
another search is triggered of Michael Jackson's house and this search finds a stash of drugs under many aliases including Propofol. A manslaughter investigation is triggered and search warrants are executed to search Dr. Murray's offices in Houston.

Later this week we should get the final coroner's report with the long awaited toxicology report. If the toxicology report supports what the authorities already know and there aren't any big surprises, then I expect Dr. Murray to be arrested on the charge of manslaughter shortly thereafter.

Currently, I have 75 JACKSON.MURDER.DEC09 Contracts going long at a price of 32.7

  2. Big play for you Chuck. Best of luck, I think it should be a winner when it's all said and done.

  3. 160 @ 36.4 average.

    A whole bunch of them almost certainly at Jesse Livermore's expense.
