Michael Jackson’s Final Words #shorts #MichaelJackson
On June 25, 2009, pop legend Michael Jackson
died after receiving a lethal combination of medications at the age of 50. This included a fatal dose of the anesthetic
Propofol, which bears the nickname "milk of amnesia." Propofol is intended for use during surgery,
and was administered by Jackson's doctor, Conrad Murray. He was later charged with involuntary manslaughter. Although Murray states that six different
prescription drugs were in Jackson's system at the time of his death, Propofol was allegedly
the "Thriller" singer's favorite. During his trial, Murray's police interview
was played for the jurors, in which he described Jackson begging for the drug during the final
hours of his life. Murray stated: "At that time he said, 'can I have some milk?' He said please, please, give him some milk. […] He said, 'just make me sleep, doesn't
matter what time I get up […] I can't function if I can't sleep.'" Murray claims that he eventually agreed to
give Jackson the Propofol.
He then left his patient for a couple of minutes,
and found the musician not breathing when he returned..
