Preliminary Hearing 5/1/11 Day two. Discussion thread

  • Thread starter elusive moonwalker
  • Start date
In all fairness, you can't anyone eat. Even if Murry told Michael to eat more, it is on Michael to actually do it. He had never been a big eater and I doubt people like Kai, Kenny, or Murray could force him to change his ways. From what I've read, Michael was much worst in the 80s and he nearly killed himself with his diet by the end of the Victory Tour and he wasn't happy about being force to eat during the Bad Tour. Words from his mother's book.

Also, it recommended you don't eat before you take the drugs Michael was given that night.

I hear what you're saying but I was refering to Kai saying that his meal wasn't eaten that night. To me, it implies that it was eaten on other nights.

Also it was said that Murray was giving MJ propofol for 6 weeks so I'm concluding the prepared meals were eaten on other nights while meds were given also, right? :scratch:

To me, it's just one more thing showing that Murray did not care about Michael's health. A good doc would've said "Listen young man, for what you're going through right now, you need to eat this amount of calories and proteins or I cannot keep treating you."

I knew a guy, a pro baseball player with a great, lean and muscular body that had chronic cramping while on the field and his doc kept telling him he needed to eat a big juicy steak and the guy didn't want to eat red meat so he went to a nutritionist and was told the same thing. The nutrionist told him that for what he was doing for living, a big steak was the best cure for his leg cramps.
 
I just want to point out that the hospice remark seems a little biased. There is no typical look for a hospice patient. I worked with hospice patients and they were varying weights and being on hospice does not equal to being frail. I had some patients who were actually heavy.

True. My dad was heavy and bloated when he died. And he died of cancer. Elvis was a drug addict and died of an overdose and he was fat.

You know if Michael was not gone I would call his lawyers a comedy team

:hysterical::hysterical::hysterical: If the whole case wasn't so serious all you'd need would be the drum sounds after Chernoffs questions and comments and you'd have one of the best stand up comedy shows ever. :mello:

When I saw him on TV explaining the viewers how Murray gave MJ CPR with one hand, I knew....THIS is the lawyer Murray needs to get!!! :kickass: Obviously not the sharpest tool in the shed. :mello:
 
I don't know if this was mentioned already cause this thread is moving fast! But, the pros tried to insinuate that the paramedics where the ones who didn't want to take MJ to the hospital cause the new policy is now that it's better to pronounce someone dead at the scene then to waste time and tax payers money trying to get them to a hospital! o_O Again, the same paramedic Seffens said he wouldn't know how to answer that!? Also all 4 paramedics that where at the scene said they couldn't get a pulse on MJ he was flat lined but, only Murray was saying to them he can feel a pulse!

What Michael had on his head means nothing I can't believe his lawyer even tried to go there.

Chernoff did not ask that. Paramedics said what they saw him in shower cap when they arrived.

The autopsy report says that Michael was wearing a wig. Why he would need a shower cap to go to sleep? It does not make any sense so far.

even if its a wig, you still have to protect your hair. now if he had removed the wig at night, it would be a different story but he didnt. he wasnt gonna sleep on his hair and mess it up unless someone was gonna do it for him the next day or unless he felt like doing it again
 
ALL the info I am sharing is from Ustream from a women named Erin who was in court sitting next to Katherine! I am just repeating what I heard while listening in! And yes, I believe the whole shower cap comment was racist too!
 
Based on just two days testimony, it seems like he did everything he could to make sure no one was able to revive MJ. I don't think we've seen testimony as of yet to show he killed him intentionally, but I do believe based on the testimony thus far that he did intentionally ensure that no one was able to revive MJ, i.e. 1) not calling 911 right away, 2) not telling the paramedics or the hospital staff that he gave MJ propofol, 3) as was mentioned in a recent post he broke the IV/syringe in MJ's leg when the paramedics told him to use that same one to get MJ some ephedrine to start his heart.

Not knowing CPR, I can label that as incompetency, maybe even 3) above, but 1) and 2) can't just be attributed to incompetency. Even I would know to do 1) and 2) above. One can justifiably argue that that was intentional.

I hate to accuse anyone of something so severe, but I just can't grasp how an experienced doctor can be so incompetent. This whole thing just boggles my mind. His actions are beyond my comprehension.

Same. I've been keeping an open mind about incompetence vs. something more sinister and I, too, am starting to think the level of negligence here is just off the charts.

F*ck TMZ!

Erin on Ustream also said that Murray broke the IV/syringe in MJ leg when the paramedics told him to use that same one to get MJ some ephedrine to start his heart! When Murray broke it they couldn't find the vain and had to start all over again poking him everywhere in his arms until they got it on his neck! *SIGH* :,(

Is this the same broken syringe Murray's lawyer was trying to get fingerprinted?

if you think about, the doctors dont do the dirty work anyway. its the nurses, and nurses aid and the rescue people that do all the work. the doctor does the more technical stuff. so i believe that he has never done cpr especially since he is a specialist(it is still weird cause his specialty is cardiology
i think the room was the dr's room. yea but i havent heardanything about oxygen during these testimonies and it should have been there


The thing is that it doesn't come across as him not doing mouth-to-mouth becuz he never had to. It comes across that he hasn't done it becuz it's a preference...something he would rather not do. When he says he'll do it becuz MJ is his friend, it indicates had it been someone else, he wouldn't bother. That's messed UP! So had Michael NOT been his friend, he never would have put his mouth on him. I can't...


It was not Chernoff who called MJ 4 times a drug addict in court who made Katherine upset (although he thinks the same) it was another lawyer for Murray named Rowe who was Britney Spears ex Attorney! Who was saying to the Paramedic that MJ was a drug addict and only drug addicts look like that wearing a shower cap on his head when the paramedic describe earlier that he could not recognize it was MJ!

Please tell me the shower cap comment is a joke. Seriously? Only drug addicts wear shower caps? SMH at Murray's lawyers. Again...I can't.

I think contamination prevention sounds like a reasonable option and also since propofol burns/stings, it may have been inside the bag to keep it from coming into contact with anyone's skin should it leak somehow on the floor.


Guys, do not hate on Chernoff. He's slimey but he's your unintentional friend here. Trust. I've not seen a more perfect match of attorney/client in the "not too bright" dept. than Chern. and Murr. It's almost criminal that one has a license to practice medicine and the other has a license to practice law.

Propofol does not burn or sting when it comes into contact with skin....trust me...I know. It burns when it is injected into the vein. That's why you take a little bit of lidocaine so that it doesn't burn that much. :yes:

The comment about Chernoff and Murray made me laugh out loud!! :lol: It is extremely sad and horryfying...but true. :mello: Just let Chernoff dig the hole for Murray all on his own! :kickass: :lol: ("Was it dark in the room....?" Oh wait...wasn't your CLIENT monitoring his patient with EYES ONLY.....:mello::doh::doh::doh:)

I knew it burned going into the vein, hence the use of lidocaine, but I wondered about whether it would burn the skin as well or cause irritation. I found the info I posted from the manufacturer's manual.

Just so you know I didn't pull that info outta my butt. haha

Yeah, Chernoff continues to astound me. First he claimed Murray left the room and came in to find MJ not breathing. When it proved to be a major no-no to have left the room AND phone records showed Murray had been on the phone at the alleged time, he then tried to say his client didn't have to be out of the room when the calls were made...as if Murray never left the room and MJ alone. Truth is, either one they want to pick now, Murray is toast.

Out the room=Big no-no. No medical professional would say this is okay for any amount of minutes.

In the room and on the phone = Big no-no cuz he already lied to police and said he left to pee.

Talk about back against the wall. May as well tell the truth and take his punishment like a man.

The autopsy says he was without a wig when they saw the body.
 
Chernoff did not ask that. Paramedics said what they saw him in shower cap when they arrived.

The autopsy report says that Michael was wearing a wig. Why he would need a shower cap to go to sleep? It does not make any sense so far.

No his hair was connected to a wig. The hair on top of his head was his.

If I remember correctly the autopsy said Michael had the hair extention, not wig.
 
There is also a fine line between manslaughter and murder 2. Most fans can't even agree how much Michael is at fault and that same argument will shape any jury. They may agree that Murray's is at fault, but might also say 'well Michael asked for it and he would had gotten someone else if Murray said no', so murder 2 is too harsh.

That doesn't matter at all. Doctors have to make those decisions, not the patients. Doesn't matter how much money they have and/or how much they beg for things. If I go see a dentist and tell him to pull all my teeth, including the healthy ones, he won't do it just because I asked for it. Doctors have to do what's best for you, not what you think might be best for you.
 
I wrap my hair at night and tie a scarf around it and sleep with a satin hair bonnet on. It doesn't make me a drug addict
 
Cool. Now we're talking about hair.

Call me when the discussion getting serious again and Asedora gone.
 
If I remember correctly the autopsy said Michael had the hair extention, not wig.

If I remember correctly, Michael had almost no hair. It was very thin and extremely short. I remember also folks were discussing any possibility to do some test on his real hair to see how long these drugs were given to him, but because he had very short hair we had doubts that it was possible. This is what I remember, but I am not sure.

true... even on a bad tooth of mine, the doctor suggested i try to save it and get a root canal instead of pulling it. i see where the other poster is coming from... he/she is looking at it from the aspect of the jury.

also he isnt even charged with VOLUNTARY MANSLAUGHTER he is charged with INvoluntary manslaughter...so idk if they are gonna bump the charges up that far. maybe they will add more charges so if he is convicted he can get more jail time
 
Who was asking the paramedics about not wanting to take Michael to the hospital? I don't get this part.
 
Chernoff did not ask that. Paramedics said what they saw him in shower cap when they arrived.

It was not Chernoff who called MJ 4 times a drug addict in court who made Katherine upset (although he thinks the same) it was another lawyer for Murray named Rowe who was Britney Spears ex Attorney! Who was saying to the Paramedic that MJ was a drug addict and only drug addicts look like that wearing a shower cap on his head when the paramedic describe earlier that he could not recognize it was MJ!

how stupid..wtf has a shower cap got to do with drugs anyway?!?
 
It takes hair care products to keep curls looking the way that MJ had his. If he did not want his hair messed up when he woke up in the morning, the best way to keep his curls fresh was to cover up his hair at night.
 
I don't understand what this means. The prosecution was trying make the paramedics look bad or was that Murray's lawyers?

OMG I am so SORRY! I meant the defense! Sorry! I am still getting use to the fact that it's now the prosecution defending MJ and not the defense! See what Sneddon did to my head!:doh: Anyway, I edited my mistake so please if anyone quote me used the edited right version thanks!

His hair was sparse and connected to a wig. He was loosing his hair at the front of his head. Now that we have figured that out can we move on

were these ridiculous questions he asked objected too?

it said his hair was short, sparse,tightly coiled and connected to a wig.. also it would depend on how recent he cut his hair. if the hair was all his, they could probably sample a strand anything he took over the last year or longer(depending on how fast his hair grows) would show up.

That's okay. It makes sense to me now. Thanks.:)
