Search warrant: Jackson anesthetic levels ‘lethal’

HOUSTON — A search warrant affidavit says Michael Jackson had lethal levels of the powerful anesthetic propofol in his system when he died.

The document unsealed Monday allowed officials to raid the Houston offices and storage facility of Dr. Conrad Murray last month.

It says Murray told a Los Angeles police officer he administered several drugs to Jackson the day he died, including 25 milligrams of the sedative, which he gave intravenously.

The affidavit says Murray never ordered, purchased or received any of the propofol but that the doctor found about eight bottles of it in Jackson’s home along with numerous other vials and pills.

It is truly a shame what happened to Michael but let’s face it- he was an addict and he played with fire one too many times. His life and his death are both fascinating and a bit bizarre- but even though his music will live on and so will the images that they will plaster all over the television, probably for the rest of our lives in an attempt to profit from his sad and untimely demise- he is still nothing more than a glorified child molester that managed to buy his way out of legal problems. Don’t we feel any sorrow or saddness for the young boys that he stole innocence from?
