Michael Jackson Toxicology Report

A leaked toxicology report for the late singer, Michael Jackson, who died under suspicious circumstances, reveals the drug Propofol and several other strong anti-depressants, such as Xanax, were in his system at the time of death.

The Sun Newspaper and TMZ reported Demerol played a role in his death, but there has been no mention as of yet, that he was taking Demerol again at the time of his death.

A prescription drug abusing, malnourished, overworked, stressed out pop singer, embarking on a massive comeback tour, where his promoter overextended him, proved to be too much.

Compounding the problems of his estate, is news his tour insurance policy is worthless, as it does not cover drug overdose.

AP source: Jackson doc gave sedatives before death

Aug 7 11:40 AM US/Eastern - LOS ANGELES (AP) - Hours before Michael Jackson's death, his doctor administered multiple sedatives along with a powerful anesthetic the pop star used to sleep, according to a law enforcement official. It's a safe combination if done properly; potentially lethal if not.

The official said the type of sedatives Dr. Conrad Murray gave Jackson were benzodiazepines, often used to calm patients before surgery. Murray told investigators the doses were within normal medical guidelines, said the official, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the investigation is ongoing.

Even at acceptable levels, benzodiazepines can intensify how the anesthetic propofol depresses breathing, so strict monitoring and careful dosing is required. The balance can be tricky, a slip-up disastrous...

As investigators build their case, a central issue is what drugs were in Jackson's system when he died. The official said preliminary toxicology tests detected the propofol, a drug normally used to render patients unconscious for medical procedures but that Jackson used as a sleep aid.

Further analysis will determine whether other drugs were present and in what quantity, allowing the coroner to conclude whether they contributed to the death...

Given Jackson's long history with prescription and other drugs, Clark said he expects the coroner's office will conclude Jackson died from "multiple drug toxicity." ...

The law enforcement official said Demerol was not found in Jackson's home, but the official said a large amount of propofol and several types of benzodiazepines were in a walk-in closet and the room where Jackson slept his last night.

Benzodiazepines, the "mother's little helper" Mick Jagger sang about, include such widely used antianxiety drugs as Valium and Xanax, as well as Ativan and Versed. The law enforcement official wouldn't name which benzodiazepines Murray told investigators he gave Jackson...

How Much Is Michael Jackson's Death Worth? Possibly Nothing

Today 11:57 AM PDT  - If Michael Jackson's death was caused by drugs—and at this point, that's a virtually nonexistent if—AEG may not be able to recoup one penny of the $17.5 million life insurance policy it took out on the star in the run-up to his London comeback.

According to the documents, released to the Los Angeles Times in an attempt to silence some of the misinformation swirling about the terms, the policy would only be paid out if Jackson's death was proved to be accidental and occurred after the completion of a second physical.

You can probably guess where this is going...

While he passed his first physical in February, Jackson never got the chance to complete a second. And the accidental death thing? Only applicable in the event that drugs were not involved.

"This insurance does not cover any loss indirectly arising out of, contributed to, by or resulting from...the illegal possession or illicit taking of drugs and their effects," the policy reads...
