Coroner Gets More Jackson Doctor Files
Posted Jul 31st 2009 12:40PM by TMZ Staff
We've learned a doctor who was reprimanded for prescribing drugs to Janet Jackson using aliases has been asked to turn over his Michael Jackson-related medical files to the L.A. County Coroner's office.
Law enforcement sources tell us the coroner has subpoenaed Dr. Allan Metzger's files. As we first reported, Metzger was reprimanded by the Medical Board of California for allegedly writing fraudulent prescriptions for Janet Jackson, "using a false/fictitious name."
At the time we broke the story, Metzger would not say if he used aliases for Michael Jackson when he treated him. But we've now learned Dr. Metzger's files were labeled Omar Arnold/Michael Jackson. There is nothing illegal about using an alias if the patient's real name is also used. We're told Dr. Metzger turned the files over a week ago.
When we spoke with Dr. Metzger on July 5, he told us "I have not treated him [Jackson] for ages." At the time he told us he last spoke with Jackson by phone in April and talked about the tour, his children, nutrition and hydration. We specifically asked Dr. Metzger if he talked to Jackson about Propofol and he said he had not.
But now Dr. Metzger's lawyer, Harland Braun, says Dr. Metzger actually went to Jackson's house in April and the singer specifically asked about using Propofol at home, and the doctor advised against it. Braun told us he believed Jackson was asking Dr. Metzger to provide the drug to Jackson but the doctor declined.
Braun says Metzger wrote notes about the meeting in his medical charts, despite what Dr. Metzger told us -- that he hadn't been Jackson's doctor "for ages." Braun didn't know when Dr. Metzger wrote his notes.

My notes:
Okay so Metzger's LAWYER is confessing on behalf of his client? :blink: Looks like they are now confessing cuz they know they're about to get busted. I suspected Metzger may have been involved for the mere fact he said he last spoke to MJ in April...even tho he "claimed" was no longer treating Michael. That was around the same time Michael was asking Nurse Lee (in April) if she could find an anesthesiologist who would give him propofol. Makes sense that if he asked Nurse Lee and she wouldn't help him he'd start asking other ppl he knew who might. Looks like Murray may have been the only one desperate enuf to take on the challenge...unless there's another player who assisted Murray that we don't know about...yet. hmmm......
