Lawyers set to square off over Jackson estate
(Agencies)
Updated: 2009-07-06 09:27 Several media reports have said the powerful anesthetic Diprivan was found in the home, and the Los Angles Times reported that a police probe is focusing on the role doctors may have played in providing Jackson with medication. "Numerous bottles," of Diprivan without labels were found at the mansion, according to the Los Angeles Times. Criminal defense attorney and legal expert Steve Cron said police will try to determine if any doctors who prescribed the medication were regularly examining Jackson. "The step everybody is waiting on, is the autopsy report to show what was in (Jackson's) system," Cron said. Two autopsies were performed on Jackson after his death but toxicology results are not expected for about a month. Diprivan, the brand name of propofol, is an anesthetic that "should never be used outside of a controlled and monitored medical setting," the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) said in a statement, noting that its members have not studied the particulars of Jackson's death. Patients can have extremely variable responses to the drug and some patients can become completely anesthetized, including losing the ability to breathe, the group said. Elsewhere, officials planning a massive public memorial for the singer on Tuesday in Los Angeles said about 1.6 million people registered to be one of 8,750 people who will get two free tickets to attend the service. Details of the event and a private, family memorial service have not yet been released. |
