REPOST - Michael Jackson's heart attack was 'kept secret', claims singer's friend

Michael Jackson’s fatal heart attack was kept secret for three hours in a bid to cover-up the real cause of his death, it was claimed yesterday.

It is also believed the King of Pop’s dead body was then moved to his bedroom so police would think he killed himself with a fatal dose of the drug Propofol.

The coroner has ruled Jackson was a victim of homicide after the strong sedative caused his cardiac arrest.

And police are investigating whether his private doctor Conrad Murray is to blame for the death.

Dr Steven Hoefflin, a friend of the singer, revealed the latest twist after speaking to medics involved in Jackson’s case.

He confirmed: “They say he had lividity, which means his blood had already sunk to the back of his body.

“This indicates Michael’s heart had stopped hours earlier.”

Experts at the coroner’s office also reportedly believe Jackson was moved after his heart attack as they discovered disruptions in the pattern of “livor mortis” on his body.

Purple marks show where blood has settled in a lifeless body, which usually takes at least five hours to become apparent. Forensic pathologist Dr Cyril Wecht, not involved in the Jackson case, said: “If someone carried the body from one room to another, the livor would be ‘broken’ where contact with the body was made.

“If one person held his ankles and the other held him under his arms, there would be corresponding white interruptions of livor mortis in those spots.”

Retired FBI special agent Ted Gunderson, who has independently monitored the case, said the new evidence pointed to a “massive cover-up” by Murray.

He asked: “Did Murray try to fool people into thinking Jackson died on the way to hospital in the hope an autopsy could be avoided? If so, it didn’t work, which is why he had to confess to administering Propofol.” Murray, 56, denies mistreating Jackson.

He admitted dosing him with the anaesthetic to help him sleep but has said he did nothing wrong.

Sources said his legal team fear he is being made the scapegoat and insist Jackson himself was responsible for the drugs in his body.

It is thought Murray will claim that Jackson killed himself with an accidental overdose by tampering with the machine controlling his drip, which was set to 25milligrams.

I sincerly hope Dr. Murray is punished for the murder of Michael. Hopefully, he will lose his license and not be permitted to practice medicine. God rest your soul Michael.

How angry Murray must have been and still is when he realized that his contract for the concerts had not been signed by MJ. For Murray to give MJ propofol, even a smaller dose than 25 ml and then walk away to go to the bathroom or whatever, it not an excuse. He was not just negligent because he knew the possible results of walking away and leaving MJ alone. He knew MJ could die quickly.In no way can he use that as an excuse for MJ dying. I think that is what he wanted and he planned it or maybe I should just say, it was planned. At first I was silly enough to think that maybe Murray was just neglectful, but knowing what I know now has changed my mind. I know very well that people can be resusitated after quite a long time. Murray wasn't interested in just killing MJ but made sure he covered up the truth as best he could. Either way, Murray should die either in or out of prison.

On the news today Murray is shown at the beach with his son and his girlfriend, and his friends..While Michael is at FLC, who left behind 3 chidlren that he loved and care for, family, friends and his millions of fans..because of this MAN..and the PUPPET MASTERS in charge..I am waiting for JUSTICE..I am one fan along with countless others who are doing our best to make sure JUSTICE WILL be served..and if our MAN MADE JUSTICE SYSTEM does not work--than I AM SURE GOD will take OVER..Murray better be enjoying himself, and ALL those who have blood in their hands..because any time now...things must come into BALANCE..Right now I am so full of anger..of all the injustice that has been done to Michael..stating from the 1993 malice from the media and prosecution team. I LOVE LIFE, and all the wonderful BLESSING that I have; my children, my job, my awareness of the GREATEST LOVE ALL--Knowing that I am LOVED by the CREATOR..yet, I am allot like Michael, I feel the world's pain very much, the poverty, the injustices that happens to human beings all around the world, the malice towards children and women..I will live my life with purpose as GOD intended...BUT, too, I cannot wait to leave this life..to leave all the sickness of people's hearts-the disease of greed, jealous/envy and ignorance..I cannot wait to live in paradise, to finally see all my family and friends who have passed before me and to finally met and be with the GREATEST INSPIRATION of my life..Michael. Thanks Justice FOUR MJ..

Dr Murray seriously needs to rot in prison for a long long time. He was reckless in so many ways. I truly think Mj would still be here alive and well had Murray not been so careless and reckless. Three beautiful children lost their Daddy and life will never be the same for them. I know that MJis in a better place and is now happy and at peace. I know that I will see him again there one day, but that does not change that Murray needs to pay for his actions. He needs to go to prison for 15+ yrs and never practice medicine again, EVER

I don't believe Murray. Look at his personal record of disreguard toward his personal life! I'm sure no matter how capable he maybe as a doctor, he didn't do very well that night!
