Doctor says he did not inject Jackson

Michael Jackson's doctor has labelled reports he injected the pop icon with a powerful painkiller prior to Jackson’s death as false.
Speaking through his lawyer, Dr. Conrad Murray, told the Los Angeles Times he did not administer the narcotic drugs, Demerol or OxyContin.
Dr Murray explained that Jackson was unconscious and not breathing when he entered the bedroom at Jackson’s Holmby Hills mansion in California.
He said he checked for a pulse, which was only weak.
He then started administering CPR.
The LA Times said the account provided by Murray's attorney was consistent with that provided to police investigators.
Dr Murray was interviewed for three-hours on Saturday by Los Angeles police and then again on Sunday.
A statement put out by Dr Murray’s lawyers after the interviews read: "Investigators say the doctor is in no way a suspect and remains a witness to this tragedy."
The official autopsy, conducted on Saturday, failed to determine what killed Jackson.
Although a second autopsy has been ordered at the request of Jackson's family, toxicology tests could still take up to six weeks to determine if there were drugs in his system.
LOS ANGELES - Michael Jackson still had a faint pulse and his body was warm when his doctor found him in bed and not breathing, a lawyer for the doctor told The Associated Press on Sunday.
Edward Chernoff also said Dr. Conrad Murray never prescribed or gave Jackson the drugs Demerol or OxyContin. He denied reports suggesting Murray gave Jackson drugs that contributed to his death.
Chernoff told the AP that Murray was at the pop icon's rented mansion on Thursday afternoon when he discovered Jackson in bed and not breathing. The doctor immediately began administering CPR, Chernoff said.
"He just happened to find him in his bed, and he wasn't breathing," the lawyer said. "Mr. Jackson was still warm and had a pulse."
Jackson's family requested a private autopsy in part because of questions about Murray, the Rev. Jesse Jackson said Saturday.
People close to Michael Jackson have said since his death that they were concerned about his use of painkillers. Los Angeles County medical examiners completed their autopsy Friday and said Jackson had taken unspecified prescription medication.
Chernoff said any drugs the doctor gave Jackson were prescribed in response to a specific complaint from the entertainer.
"Dr. Murray has never prescribed nor administered Demerol to Michael Jackson," Chernoff said. "Not ever. Not that day. . . . Not Oxycontin (either) for that matter."

That's why you jumped on him and started CPR? Some doctor.
Oh. Wait. Probably because lawyers don't make house calls.
his pulse could have been erratic and stopped after he found him........frankly, the only interest I have in mj now is a morbid curiosity as to cause of death.
This was the Keystone Cardiologist. He was doing CPR on the bed and you learn in Nursing 101 that CPR is done on a hard surface. This “doctor” had no narcan and was doing CPR with a weak pulse on a bed. This doctor is not fit to treat your dog.
“Legal” drugs, just as deadly as the other kind, just more expensive.
I bet he was murdered to take American interest off Iran.
Enough already. He’s dead finto gone end of story. Who really cares except those that cry when a tree falls in the forest.
Sounds like murder to me.
Suggest MJ had OD’d. Either by accident or on purpose.
Made the elixir too strong or mixed with too many drugs?
Shut his cardiopulmonary system down to failure!
Just a hunch!
Notice that Al Sharpton is involved - let the Circus begin!
I was more upset about Billy Mays to tell you the truth.
Jackson had more going for him than Anna Nicole-Smith at that point
Now reparations will pass so everyone can buy Jackson CDs.
I am betting mj caused his own death.....just not exactly on purpose.
You're right, everyone should just drop it.
He's with the angels now.
He insisted on going to the hospital with Jackson and rode with him on the ambulance.

And pretty much what he's lookin' like now.
Actually there is now an investigation into his death. Pardon me for following an investigation of any sort.
