The coroner has ordered additional tests before they issue a final determination of death.The tests include toxicology & pulmonary tests that will take up to 6 weeks before they get the results.The coroner's spokesman said that there was "no indication of foul play."
And he also stated that Michael Jackson was taking prescription drugs.The spokesman for the coroner wouldn't comment on exactly what those drugs were.
There are a few questions that have yet to be answered in this case.Like,why didn't Michael Jackson's doctor sign his death certificate? The speculation is that his doctor was already gone before the paramedics arrived.Who is the doctor(pictured above) that may have contributed to the death of a legend & an era?
Well,here's some information about the financially troubled Dr. Conrad R. Murray from Yahoo:
"The cardiologist who reportedly was in Michael Jackson's Los Angeles mansion when the entertainer collapsed practices medicine in at least three states and is the graduate of a medical school in Nashville.
A woman who answered the phone Friday at Dr. Conrad R. Murray's clinic in Houston confirmed to The Associated Press that Murray was Jackson's cardiologist.
The Los Angeles Times reported that Murray was performing CPR on Jackson when paramedics arrived at his home Thursday, and Murray's car was later towed by police from the home.
Los Angeles police want to interview Murray but stress he is not under criminal investigation.
Murray graduated from Meharry Medical College in 1989. Government records show he holds licenses to practice in California, Nevada and Texas. He was licensed in 2001 in Hawaii, but it wasn't immediately clear if that license is current.
State regulators had no records of any disciplinary actions against him.
Murray's office in Las Vegas, Global Cardiovascular Associates Inc., was locked and dark Friday. Reporters gathered in the hallway outside. He did not immediately return messages left on his office voicemail."(END OF EXCERPT)Read the rest here.
