I have a question... wasn't mj receiving the propofol in Muarrys room and wasn't the lorazepam found in the bathroom of MJs room
The bottle of lorazepam found in the bathroom was empty, it had no cap. It looks like it was discarded. If I remember well, there were no benzos in the bathroom , the 3 bottles were empty, there were only eye drops and things like that.
The bottles of medication with pills still in them were in the second bedroom, the one where Murray was "treating" Michael, on the nightstand, right next to Michael, very easy for Murray to see (or hear) if they were in the same room.
If Michael had planned on taking stuff behind Murray's back , he could have left some in his personal bedroom. He was not a well organised "addict" IMO...
The defense doesn't even need to say he was walking around .... the pills were right next to Michael. But it would make Murray look bad , because that would be too obvious Murray was away, so they have Michael walking around with an IV, condom catheter, etc... did that IV pole have wheels, anyone remembers from the picture ?
So the latest defense theory was Michael was asleep after mild sedation, Murray watched him for 15 or 30mn, then left Michael with a loaded syringe, bottles of benzos next to him, Murray was away for 40mn. When Murray came back, Michael was dead, Murray panicked, waited 20mn to call 911, took the time to put some of his stuff in his bags, in the closet, "overlooked" the propofol when he told the EMTs and UCLA doctors what had happened (remember he told them he had "witnessed" the arrest).
Murray didn't notice that his syringe had moved and was empty?
If Murray was in the next room or close by on the phone, Michael just had to call him to do the injection, why would he do it himself ? It doesn't make sense.
Honestly, how does that help Murray ? Even if you believe that theory, it's still negligence, Murray still significantly contributed to Michael's death : it's still a guilty verdict IMO.
I agree last part of Walgren's cross was a bit long, he was obviously tired, but what he was doing is important : he was showing study after study that were contradicting White's urine theory. That's the only thing that White had to contradict dr Shafer's infusion theory. Walgren will ask Dr Shafer about that, Dr Shafer will re explain that he needs the metabolite and not the free propofol.
Walgren really needs to bring up the transmural hemorrage quickly now, I don't understand why he hasn't done so yet .
He needs to bring up flumazenil again too, he needs to ask White why you would use flumazenil if you had given lorazepam at least 7 hours before ?
If Michael had swallowed 8 pills at 7 am, how come at 9 am Murray didn't notice anything ? 16 mg lorazepam wouldn't do anything on Michael ? How is that possible ? Murray was prescribing 2mg/night of lorazeapm on april 28th.
Why was Michael wearing a condom catheter in the first place ? Doesn't that show that Murray intended to sedate him, more heavily than just sleep ? If it was just sleep, Michael would have got up and gone to the bathroom , who likes to relieve onself with a catheter ?
Walgren using White's articles about safety when using sedation was brilliant. It made White look really bad, and White had to admit that what Murray was doing, the infusions at least, was dangerous.
