Guten Morgen
3. Prozesstag, 29. September 2011
Zeugenaussage von Alberto Alvarez:
Durch die Staatsanwaltschaft:*
Er war als Director of Logistics bei Michael angestellt.
Arbeitete für Michael seit 2004, immer mal wieder mit Unterbrechungen zwischendurch.* Fing Dezember 2008 oder Januar 2009 wieder an, als Michael schon in Carolwood lebte.*
Die Security hielt sich nicht im Haus auf, sondern in einem Trailer draußen. Sie gingen nur ins Haus herein, wenn sie gerufen wurden.
Der Security Trailer
Alvarez sah Murray zum ersten Mal in der Carolwood Location, nachdem er im Januar 2009 wieder bei Michael angefangen hatte zu arbeiten.*
Er sah Murray 5 bis 6 Mal in der Woche. Manchmal morgens, aber meistens nachmittags. Murray blieb über die Nacht.
Er wusste über* die Anwesenheit der Sauerstofftanks Bescheid, die manchmal im Security Trailer gelagert wurden.
Murray kam manchmal in den Security Trailer, um leere Sauerstofftanks dazulassen und volle wieder mitzunehmen.
Am 24.Juni machten sie sich irgendwann nach 17 Uhr LA Ortszeit auf den Weg zu den Proben.
Alvarez fuhr schon früher los und kam vor Michael am Staples Center an, um einige Sachen zu checken wie z.B. die Zimmertemperatur im „Green Room“ (Michaels Zimmer, wo er sich aufhielt/umzog, Michael wollte ein warmes Zimmer) oder um zu kontrollieren, ob sich Personen im Center aufhielten, die nicht befugt dazu waren, wie Papparazzi.
Er glaubt, dass Michael am 24. Juni irgendwann nach 18:30/19:00 Uhr* im Staples Center ankam.
Michael schien glücklich an dem Tag.
Während Michael probte, stand Alvarez hinter der Bühne.
Wie fand er Michaels Performance während der Probe? „He was doing very well for the most part.”*
Nach der Probe brachte er Michael zum Auto. Michael war gut gelaunt. Er verließ die Location vor Michael, um die Straßen abzuchecken und fuhr dann zum Carolwood House, wo er vor Michael ankam.
Er sah Murrays Auto vor dem Haus.
Als Michael ankam, half er Fangeschenke ins Haus zu tragen. Er sprach kurz mit Michael. Michael sagte „Good Night.“ Er antwortete „Good Night.“
Danach sicherte die Security die Vordertür und sie trafen sich für ein Security-Meeting, was üblicherweise passierte. Schließlich fuhr er nach Hause.
Am 25. Juni kam er irgendwann um 10:15 Uhr Ortszeit im Carolwood Anwesen an.
Um 12:17 Uhr befand er sich im Security Trailer.
Um 12:17 Uhr rief ihn erfolglos Amir an.
Telefonliste: Alberto Alvarez
Um 12:18 Uhr rief er* Amir zurück. Der Anruf dauerte 88 Sekunden. Er befand sich zu der Zeit im Security Trailer. Michael Amir fragte ihn, wo er war und dass er an die Vordertür des Hauses gehen soll. *„Don’t make a commotion.“, sagte Amir ihm. Auf dem Weg blieb Amir am Apparat. Er sagte ihm, er soll sich beeilen. Als er die Tür öffnen wollte, bemerkte er, dass die Tür abgeschlossen war.* Als er durch die Vordertür schaute, sah er Paris, die Nanny, Kai Chase und Murray. Kai Chase stand irgendwo hinter dem rechten Sitz. Paris und die Nanny waren beim Sitz mit dem Tischchen. Murray war am Treppengeländer und hielt sich am Geländer mit beiden Händen fest. Er schaute herunter.* Die Nanny schloss die Tür auf.*
Als Alverez im Haus war, teilte er dies Amir mit, dieser sagte ihm, er solle die Treppen hoch rennen.
Er sah Prince, der in der oberen Etage war und in die andere Richtung lief. Er sah auch Murray zum Schlafzimmer hinlaufen. Murray sagte zu ihm „Alberto, come, quick.“
Davor war er erst ungefähr zwei Mal innerhalb von sechs Monaten auf der oberen Etage gewesen.
Nachdem er Murray oben getroffen hatte, beenderte er durch auflegen das Gespräch mit Amir und lief mit Murray in das Zimmer, wo sich Michael befand.
Murray fing an Michael eine Herzmassage nur mit der linken Hand zu geben.* Michael lag im Bett. Sein Kopf auf dem Kopfkissen.*
Michael lag auf dem Rücken im Bett mit ausgestreckten Armen. Seine Augen und sein Mund waren offen. Sein Kopf war leicht zur linken Seite gedreht.*
Als Alberto ins Zimmer kam, sagte Murray ihm, dass sie Michael ins Krankenhaus bringen müssten. Alberto lief zum Bett und griff in seine Tasche, um sein Handy herauszuholen. Paris und Prince kamen ins Zimmer. Paris schrie „Daddy“. Sie weinte. Michaels Kopf war zu Paris gedreht.*
Murray sagte „Don’t let them see their dad like this.“ ("Lass sie ihren Vater so nicht sehen"). Alberto begleitete die Kinder nach draußen und versuchte sie durch Worte zu beruhigen. Er kehrte zurück und fragte Murray, was passiert sei. Und Murray sagte, Michael hätte eine „bad reaction“ gehabt.
Er sah etwas aus Plastik an Michaels Penis befestigt. Ein Kondomkatheter wie er später erfuhr.
Aber er konnte keinen Pulsmesser, kein Herzmonitor erkennen. Er sah nur einen Sauerstoffschlauch an Michaels Nasenbereich. Auch sah er einen Infusionsständer.
Murray reichte ihm Medizinfläschchen, die er vom Nachtschrank neben dem Bett nahm und wies ihn an, sie in eine Tüte zu tun. Alberto nahm eine Tüte und hielt sie für Murray auf, der diese Fläschchen in die Tüte fallen ließ. Diese Tüte sollte er in eine andere braune Tüte tun. Dann zeigte Murray auf einen Infusionsständer und sagte er solle einen der zwei Infusionsbeutel, die daran befestigt waren, nehmen und in eine blaue Tüte tun. Alberto tat auch das.
Warum befolgte er diese Anweisungen? Er glaubte, dass Murray nur das beste für Michael wollte und er wollte Murrays Authorität nicht in Frage stellen, da es ein Notfall war. Er dachte, dass er diese Sachen für das Krankenhaus einpacken würde.
In dem Infusionsbeutel, den er in die Tüte packte, war eine Flasche mit weißer Substanz enthalten. Den zweiten Infusionsbeutel, der am Ständer befestigt war, musste Alvarez nicht entfernen.
Er fertigte eine Zeichnung des Infusionsbeutels an.*
- Der Infusionsbeutel war aufgeschlitzt wie später festgestellt wurde. Dieser Infusionsbeutel wird der Jury gezeigt. -*
Nach Alvarez lag die Flasche mit der weißen Substanz diagonal im Infusionsbeutel mit der Öffnung nach unten zum Ausgang des Infusionsbeutel.*
Erst nachdem all dies erledigt wurde, sagte Murray ihm, er solle 911 anrufen. Dies geschah um 12:20 Uhr.
Während des Gesprächs mit 911 befand sich Michael immer noch auf dem Bett. Murray machte eine Herzmassage. Der Notruf sagte, sie sollen Michael vom Bett auf den Boden legen. Er fasste Michael an den Beinen, Murray am Oberkörper und gemeinsam legten sie ihn auf den Boden. Michael hatte eine Infusion in seinem Bein stecken, Murray zog sie heraus. Auch befestigte er ein Gerät an Michaels Finger, das sich auf dem Bett befand, aber zuvor nicht an Michaels Körper befestigt war, sondern nur im Bett lag. (Finger-Pulsmessgerät)
Einige Tage vor dem 25. Juni kam Murray zum Security Trailer und fragte, ob sie Batterien hätten. Dabei sah Alvarez dasselbe Gerät in Murrays Hand. Er fragte Murray, was es sei und dieser antwortete, es sei so etwas wie ein Herzmonitor. * *
Irgendwann nach dem Notruf kam Faheem Muhammad ins Zimmer. Alvarez sagte zu ihm „It’s not looking good.“ ("Es schaut nicht gut aus").* Murray fragte sie dann, ob einer von ihnen Herzmassage beherrscht. Alvarez und Muhammad schauten sich für eine Sekunde an und Alvarez ging ihm helfen und fing an mit beiden Händen eine Herzmassage auszuführen. Er wusste wie eine Herzmassage funktioniert. Währenddessen machte Murray eine Mund zu Mund Beatmung. Nach einigen Sekunden, sagte Murray, dass er noch nie eine Mund zu Mund Beatmung gemacht hätte, aber er das jetzt machen müsste, weil Michael sein Freund sei.
Für Alvarez schien Michael nicht mehr zu leben.
Die Sanitäter kamen an und übernahmen. Sie zogen Michael, der auf der Seite des Bettes lag, vor das Bett.
Alvarez ging ein paar Mal nach unten, wegen den Kindern und um Michael Amir aufzusuchen. Als die Sanitäter herunterkamen, ging er zu den Kindern, um mit ihnen zu reden, damit sie Michael nicht sahen. Sie befanden sich schon im Auto. Sie verfolgten den Krankenwagen.
Als Michael vom Krankenwagen in das Krankenhaus reingebracht werden sollte, ging Alvarez zu den Papparazzi und sagte, das es ein privater Moment sei, dass sie das respektieren sollten und zurücktreten sollten, dann zog er seine Jacke aus, um mit ihr den Sehbereich der Papparazzi abzudecken.
Murray sagte zu ihm im Krankenhaus „Thank you for your help“. Er antwortete „We did our best.“(Wir haben unser Bestes gegeben.)*
Er verdächtigte Murray zu der Zeit keiner Falschhandlung.
Er verspürt gegenüber Murray keinen Zorn.
Im Krankenhaus sagte Murray ihm, dass er hungrig sei und fragte, ob jemand ihn zurück zum Haus fahren könnte. Alvarez antwortete nicht, so stellte Murray dieselbe Frage an Michael Amir.
Zum letzten Mal sah Alvarez Murray vor der Notaufnahme. Murray setzte sich und sagte „I wanted him to make it.”("Ich wollte, dass er durchkommt.")
Die Security verließ das Krankenhaus und fuhr zurück nach Carolwood. Kurz nach der Ankunft fuhr Alvarez die Kinder nach Hayvenhurst.
Über 20, 30 Mal wurde er von den Medien für Interviews angefragt. Aber er sagte nein. Sie boten ihm Summen wie 200,000 und 500,000 Dollar an.
Nach diesem Ereignis hat er finanzielle Probleme und keine feste Arbeit mehr. Er wurde sehr gut bezahlt bei Michael.*
Durch die Verteidigung:*
Alvarez zeichnete die Skizze des Infusionsbeutels nach der Voranhörung, vielleicht im Mai 2011.
Die Verteidigung sagt, er hätte schon eine Skizze für die Polizei im August 2009 gemalt. Alvarez kann sich nicht erinnern, ob er die vor Gericht zweite angezeigte Skizze gemalt hat, da er denkt, dass er sie mit mehr Detail gemalt hätte. *Die erste gezeigte Skizze hat er auf Anfrage von Walgren gezeichnet.
Die erstgezeigte Skizze des Infusionsbeutels, die Alvarez für Herrn Walgren anfertigte.
*
Die erste Zeichnung von Alvarez laut Verteidigung
Alvarez ist sich sicher, dass er das Timing der Ereignisse nicht durcheinander bringt.
Während dem Gespräch mit dem Notruf fasste er keine Medizinfläschchen an und tat nichts in die Tüten.
Ohne Murrays Ansage, dass er die Kinder herausbringen soll, hätte sie Alvarez nicht herausbegleitet, weil er nur Michael und die Situation im Kopf hatte.Kommentar

Ich verfolge zwar jeden Abend die Berichte über CNN oder BBC oder Sky, muss aber zu meinem Bedauern feststellen, dass ich nicht einmal der Hälfte folgen kann. Deshalb herzlichen Dank für die jeweiligen Übersetzungen, für die Mühe, die ihr euch alle macht.
Ich muss nochmal auf dieses entsprechende letzte Bild von MJ zurückkommen. Habe diese Woche in irgendeinem thread hier gelesen, dass es wohl doch nur eine Fotomontage ist. Finde leider die entsprechende Seite nicht mehr. Egal ob echt oder nicht echt, man hätte es zumindest nicht per Kamera in die ganze Welt übertragen müssen.
Vielleicht weiß ja jemand, ob diese Bild nur ein Fake war.Kommentar

Hier ein IV mit Meserau
JOY BEHAR SHOW
BEHAR: Thomas Mesereau got to know Michael Jackson during the months he defended the singer in his 2005 child molestation trial for which Jackson was acquitted on all counts. Mesereau obviously spent a lot of time with Michael back then and he`s joining to share his thoughts on the dramatic developments in the Conrad Murray trial.
So I`m happy to welcome to my show, Thomas Mesereau, defense attorney and partner in Mesereau and U. Hello Thomas.
The prosecution played --
THOMAS MESEREAU, FORMER ATTORNEY OF MICHAEL JACKSON: Hi.
BEHAR: -- audio of Michael Jackson that Conrad Murray recorded. Michael`s speech is slow and slurring, like he`s under the influence of something. Do you believe, first of all -- do you believe first of all that it was Michael on the recording?
MESEREAU: Well, I have to assume it was. That`s what the prosecutors are saying, and I think nobody has really disputed that. I was horrified when I heard it because, you know, I represented Michael Jackson through that five-month trial and for many months before that. I never ever heard him talk that way.
During the time I was working with him, which was a very difficult stressful time, he was always articulate, always conversational, always cooperative. A delightful client to work with, and I never ever heard him that way. So it was just tragic and just very disheartening to hear that.
The other thing I want to say is, that I consider Michael to have been one of the nicest, kindest human beings ever created. He had a mission to try and help the world. Even when he`s intoxicated, if he is, and slurring his words and it`s very sad to listen to, he still was talking about building a children`s hospital. That`s the Michael I knew -- caring, decent, honorable, and wanting to use his greatest talents to help the world.
BEHAR: Yes. And also very interested in his audience and giving them the best show, even when he is slurring and under some kind of sedation. That is obvious to me.
But the thing I can`t make sense of is why Conrad Murray would record this in the first place? Do you have any thoughts on that?
MESEREAU: Yes, I do. Unfortunately, Michael Jackson attracted one profiteer after another. I don`t think Michael really trusted any adult. He was just -- felt that everyone who got near him eventually, you know, showed their true colors and wanted to get something out of him.
Unfortunately, I think this doctor recorded him so he could sell that recording and make some money. It sounds horrible, but I believe it`s true because many other people tried it throughout his lifetime.
BEHAR: Well, I guess he didn`t expect him to die, right?
MESEREAU: He didn`t expect him to die, I`m pretty confident of that, I think.
BEHAR: Right.
MESEREAU: But nevertheless, people were always trying to get something from Michael, record Michael, get a photo of Michael, and try and profit from it. I can`t think of any reason why he would want this recording.
BEHAR: Ok. Now, yesterday we heard testimony regarding Michael`s regular visit to his dermatologist, a certain Dr. Arnie Klein. Let`s just listen to that for a minute.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
WALGREN: Do you recall at some point going to visit Dr. Arnold Klein with Michael Jackson?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes, sir, I do.
WALGREN: And this was a regular occurrence?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: At a certain point, it was very regular. That`s right.
WALGREN: And when he left Dr. Klein`s office have you observed him sometimes to talk slow?
UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Sometimes when we leave, he would talk slow like that.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
BEHAR: What did you make of that testimony?
MESEREAU: Well, you know, my job in defending him was not to learn about his medical history. My job was to defend him against conspiracy charges and child molestation charges.
I didn`t pay as much attention to his medical history and what doctors he was seeing. I would hear rumors from time to time he was seeing a number of doctors. And I would hear rumors from time to time that enablers around him were taking him to too many doctors and giving him too many prescription pills. But I never could verify it. I never knew if it was really true. And what went on with he and Dr. Klein was not a major concern to me. I wanted an acquittal.
BEHAR: I see. But he did show up in 2005 in pajamas in that trial, did he not? Did that cause any kind of (INAUDIBLE) in your mind at all about anything?
MESEREAU: No, of course, not. Absolutely not because he was at the hospital with a back injury. The judge got very upset and gave him 45 minutes to get to court or he was going to yank his bail and put him in jail for the rest of the trial. And I told him don`t go home and change, come to the courthouse. It really was my doing, my fault, my responsibility. I still think I did the right thing because I did not want him remanded to jail. It would have been awful for him to do that.
BEHAR: Ok. Now, the defense is arguing that Michael gave himself the fatal dose of Propofol. Is that a good defense strategy. We`re not even sure -- in my previous conversation -- we`re not sure that that`s possible to do. But is it a good defense strategy. Does it raise some kind of reasonable doubt or something like that in your mind?
MESEREAU: Well, you won`t know that until the jury renders a verdict, if they do render a verdict. You know, m y perception of the defense is that they`re very vigorous and very professional and very prepared. They`re trying to defend someone who has some serious evidence against him.
I`m a great believer in my profession. I love being a criminal defense lawyer. And I think we do more to preserve freedom and civil liberties than any other group I know. And we`re not always understood and we`re often attacked.
Even though I`m on the prosecution`s side in this case because I think what this doctor did was outrageous and caused Michael`s death, I understand what they`re doing, and they`re taking facts, they`re prepared, they`re doing their best to vigorously defend their client.
BEHAR: Well, do you feel that -- you know a lot of times the victims in these types of cases are on trial as well as the perpetrators. Do you feel that`s happening with Michael here?
MESEREAU: Yes, I do. I think they`re trying to attack Michael in two ways. First of all, they`re trying to subtly devalue him in the eyes of the jury. So that it might be easier to let their client go. They`re doing that by suggesting he was a lost soul and a drug addict and responsible for his own demise.
They`re also doing it to try to set the stage for their clients saying that he was a Good Samaritan. That Michael was in desperate shape and that he was really there trying to help him, not see him perish. That`s the two-pronged attack in my opinion.
BEHAR: Is it your opinion also that Michael is not responsible for his death in any shape or form?
MESEREAU: My understanding as the medical evidence shows that Propofol killed him, nothing else. If that`s true, this doctor is completely responsible. He was the professional, he was the one who was supposed to look at Michael and say, Michael, that`s a dangerous powerful drug, it doesn`t belong in the home, we don`t have proper trained personnel. I`m not an anesthesiologist, I don`t have a nurse anesthetist. I don`t have the proper breathing equipment, heart monitoring equipment, we`re not going to use it.
That was his obligation to say that. You can`t just be a yes person for your client because your client`s a celebrity and has a lot of wealth.
BEHAR: So it`s always the doctor`s fault in your mind?
MESEREAU: What do you -- I don`t know what you mean by "always the doctor`s fault"?
BEHAR: Well, I mean he was addicted to this drug, does he take any responsibility for that at all?
MESEREAU: He didn`t die before he got in this doctor`s hands. If another doctor gave him Propofol, apparently they did it according to medical standards from everything I know.
BEHAR: Yes.
MESEREAU: This guy --
BEHAR: He didn`t even know CPR, Dr. Murray. He didn`t even know how to do CPR.
MESEREAU: It`s unbelievable.
BEHAR: That is pretty unbelievable.
MESEREAU: It`s unbelievable.
BEHAR: Hang on. Hang on.
We`ll be right back. We have some more.
(COMMERCIAL BREAK)
BEHAR: And I am back with Thomas Mesereau, the attorney who helped get Michael Jackson an acquittal in his 2005 child molestation trial. Ok. So today we heard testimony about Michael`s kids, where they were when Michael was in distress. Paris yelling "daddy". Prince is in shock crying. Does that kind of testimony help or hurt Conrad Murray?
MESEREAU: I think it hurts Conrad Murray. I think the beauty of these children and the tragedy of their losing their father is only going to help humanize Michael Jackson and emphasize what a tragic loss this was. And what an unnecessary loss it was. It definitely helps the prosecution.
BEHAR: So you think the prosecution is doing really well at this point?
MESEREAU: I think they`re doing very well, so far, but I think the defense is doing well too. I thought both opening statements were very effective.
You remember the prosecution gets to put their case on first. So things always look better for them at the beginning. This thing is not going to be over until it`s over as Yogi Berra used to say. You can`t score it inning by inning like a baseball game.
But I think they have a very good prosecutor. He`s clear, he`s just very concise, and his explanations for things, particularly scientific phenomena are very, very good. I think he`s telling a story bit by bit that`s compelling and logical and persuasive.
BEHAR: Ok. So then what do you think is the biggest hurdle for the defense is? What do they have to get over?
MESEREAU: They have to get over two things. One, the fact that Propofol is not like a prescription pill or an anti-depression pill. It`s a powerful drug that doesn`t belong in the home. It`s dangerous, and not only is that dangerous, but this doctor did not even know the first thing about how to administer it safely.
And the other thing that`s just horrifying is that when Michael Jackson was either dead or close to death and paramedics and police wanted to revive him, this doctor withheld the fact that he`d given him Propofol.
BEHAR: Right.
MESEREAU: Then the doctor went to the hospital. The doctors at the hospital were trying to save Michael Jackson and he again withheld that he had given him Propofol. That is going to destroy his credibility. It`s very suspicious. It suggests that he was only trying to save himself and not Michael Jackson.
BEHAR: So what do you think should happen to Dr. Murray?
MESEREAU: I think he should be convicted. I think this is the appropriate charge. I don`t think he intended to kill him. I think it`s his worst nightmare that Michael Jackson died. I don`t see any evidence of a conspiracy like other people but he`s clearly responsible. He should be convicted of a felony. And he should be stripped of his medical license and I think he should do some time.
BEHAR: Like how many years would you give him if you were the judge?
MESEREAU: Well, I`m biased, because I`m appalled by what this man did, and I`m appalled at what he took from all of us in taking Michael Jackson`s life. I`d give him the four years.
BEHAR: Ok. Thank you Thomas, very much. I appreciate it.
MESEREAU: Thanks for having me.Zuletzt geändert von Lena; 30.09.2011, 14:27.Kommentar

Murray-Prozess Michael Jacksons Leibwächter packt aus
Zeuge der Anklage: Michael Jacksons Bodyguard Alberto Alvarez hat Dr. Conrad Murray schwer belastet. Am dritten Prozesstag schilderte er die dramatischen Stunden der Todesnacht. Von Frank Siering, Los Angeles
Tag drei im Prozess gegen Dr. Conrad Murray. Diesmal im Zeugenstand: Alberto Alvarez, der persönliche Bodyguard von Michael Jackson. Alvarez wird zunächst von Staatsanwalt David Walgren vernommen. In dramatischer Art und Weise rekapituliert er die letzten Minuten im Leben des King of Pop. "Ich kam ins Schlafzimmer und war geschockt", erzählt Alvarez. Was er vorfand, war der Alptraum eines jeden Leibwächters. Sein Klient lag auf dem Bett, leblos. Die Augen und den Mund leicht geöffnet. Die Arme schlaff zur Seite hängend.
"Ich sah, wie Dr. Conrad Murray mit einer Hand das Herz von Mr. Jackson massierte", beschreibt Alvarez die Situation. Murray habe ihm zugerufen: "Wir müssen einen Krankenwagen rufen, wir müssen ihn in ein Hospital bringen."
Als Staatsanwalt Walgren Alvarez auffordert, die weiteren dramatischen Minuten in der Nacht zum 25. Juni 2009 zu schildern, gerät der Bodyguard, der heute kaum noch Jobs findet und finanziell am Ende ist, kurz ins Stocken. "Es ist hart für mich, verdammt hart", nuschelt er.
"Sie dürfen ihren Dad so nicht sehen"
Alvarez berichtet, er habe Murray geholfen, den leblosen Jackson vom Bett auf den Boden zu hieven. Hier habe der Arzt mit einer Mund-zu-Mund-Beatmung angefangen. "Es ist das erste Mal, dass ich so etwas mache. Aber ich muss es machen, er ist mein Freund", habe Murray zum Bodyguard gesagt, der gleichzeitig mit der Herzmassage fortfährt.
Als zwei der drei Jackson-Kinder, Paris und Prince, in der Tür zum Schlafzimmer aufgetaucht seien, habe er die beiden vom Ort des Geschehens weggeführt, nachdem Murray gesagt habe: "Sie dürfen ihren Dad so nicht sehen", berichtet Alvarez weiter. Kurz nachdem er ins Zimmer zurückgekehrt sei, habe er einen durchsichtigen Schlauch bemerkt, der am Penis von Michael Jackson befestigt gewesen sei, ein Blasen-Katheter.
Als die Staatsanwaltschaft den Bodyguard, dem nach eigenen Aussagen diverse Medien in den Wochen nach den tragischen Ereignissen im Juni 2009 bis zu 500.000 Dollar für ein Interview angeboten hatten, fragt, ob er noch etwas Ungewöhnliches bemerkt habe in dem Zimmer, bringt Alvarez mit seiner Aussage Dr. Murray in arge Bedrängnis: "Als ich zurückkam, sah ich, wie Mr. Murray eine Handvoll von Ampullen nahm. Er bat mich, sie in eine Plastiktüte zu packen. Diese Tüte musste ich dann in eine blaue Tüte packen."
"Ich wollte, dass er es schafft"
Wollte Murray damit Spuren verwischen? Immerhin wird bei der Obduktion von Jackson später festgestellt, dass der Popstar an den Folgen einer Überdosis des Narkosemittels Propofol starb. Und die Staatsanwaltschaft ist fest davon überzeugt, dass es Murray war, der dem Sänger dieses Narkosemittel regelmäßig verabreicht hat. Handelte es sich bei den verpackten Ampullen um Propofol?
Jacksons Bodyguard tat nach eigener Aussage, was ihm der Leibarzt auftrug. "Ich dachte, wir würden die Sachen fürs Krankenhaus packen", so Alvarez. Erst nachdem die Ampullen beseitigt gewesen seien, habe Murray ihn aufgefordert, den Notruf zu wählen. Wenig später habe ein am Boden zerstörter Murray gesagt: "Ich wollte, dass er es schafft, Ich wollte, dass er es schafft." Murray habe ihm für seine Mithilfe gedankt und gesagt: "Wir haben unser Bestes gegeben."
Zum ersten Mal, da sind sich auch diverse juristische Experten einig, die diesen Prozess aufmerksam verfolgen, hat die Staatsanwaltschaft einen kleinen Vorsprung herausgespielt. Auch der bekannte Strafverteidiger Tom Mesereau, er vertrat Michael Jackson erfolgreich in dem Kindesmissbrauchsprozess von 2005, glaubt, dass "Dr. Murray gegen jegliche ethische Obligation eines Arztes verstoßen hat. Um es ganz deutlich zu sagen: Ich bin auf der Seite der Staatsanwaltschaft".Kommentar

Murray braucht Dich. Es ist anscheinend etwas mit Deinem Vater nicht in Ordnung."
Prince und KC gingen in die Kueche zurueck. Prince ging zu Murray. KC ging in die
Kueche zurueck.
Brazil fragt, ob Murray ihr gesagt hatte, sie solle 911 anrufen. KC sagt "nein".
Brazil fragt KC, warum sie sich entschieden hatte, Prince zu holen. KC sagt,
Prince war in Sichtweite und Murray schien ausser sich und verstoert. KC wollte
so schnell wie moeglich Hilfe holen und Prince war am naechsten. Die Sicherheits-
leute waren draussen. Prince war naeher.

dass etwas mit Michael nicht in Ordnung war. KC sagt "ja". Flanagan sagt: "Er fragte
nach Hilfe, er fragte nach den Sicherheitsleuten. Haben Sie gedacht, dass ein
12jaehriges Kind in der Lage waere, diesem Arzt zu assistieren bei einem Problem
mit Michael?" KC sagt: "Ich tat, was mir gesagt wurde und ging Prince holen."
Flanagan fragt, ob sie Murray jemals wiedergesehen haette, KC sagt "nein". Flanagan

Dr. Drews/HLN interviewt Dr. Patrick Treacy am 29.9.2011 (mit VIDEO):
Dr. Drew exclusive: Cosmetic doc says he also used propofol on MJ
Conrad Murray apparently wasn't the only doctor to give pop star Michael Jackson propofol.
On Thursday night, Dr. Drew spoke exclusively with Dr. Patrick Treacy, who said he gave Jackson the powerful anesthetic on two different occasions.
Dr. Treacy, a cosmetic dermatologist from Dublin, Ireland, says he first met Jackson while treating him for his dermatologic conditions.
“Tell us… when, where and why you gave Michael propofol?” Dr. Drew asked at the opening of the interview.
Dr. Treacy said there were issues relating to medical confidentiality that would prevent him from talking about all aspects of his care for Jackson, but he did reveal some bits of information.
“Michael had dermal fillers in his face – the area around his nose,” Treacy explained. He said Jackson was very “hypersensitive” because of a previous surgery that he had, and he wanted sedation prior to getting some fillers in his face.
Dr. Treacy said he had treated Jackson five or six times. On two of those occasions, Jackson received propofol, where an anesthesiologist was present. “That was his [Michael Jackson’s] request,” Treacy said. That’s why Treacy believes that Jackson didn’t self-administer the anesthetic.
“Are you as concerned as I am that he [Michael Jackson] keeps being called an insomniac?" Dr. Drew asked. “At no point do I see any of the physicians who are treating that insomnia – attempting to decide... Is he in withdrawal? Is he depressed? Does he have hyperthyroidism? Is there something else causing this insomnia? There’s no diagnosis – only the symptom of insomnia, which is the same as saying they’re treating a fever... very disturbing.”
Dr. Treacy added that his most serious concern about the Conrad Murray case, which he says he’s been watching, "is the fact that sort of, you know, the defense immediately turned around and said that Michael Jackson could have killed himself… and a syringe was found underneath the bed."
“OK, if we look at the facts... why is propofol so popular with anesthesiologists? Treacy asked. ”If you give injection of it, there is no antidote, but it only last four minutes and it wears off. So, if he took a 20 mil syringe himself, the most he can give himself a shot of is 200 milligrams, which would only keep him asleep for four minutes and he would wake up again. So, it is almost physically impossible that Michael Jackson could have killed himself.”
“I completely agree,” Dr. Drew responded. "And this idea of it being a perfect storm that killed him instantly is also a bizarre notion … even let’s say it was enough to cause respiratory suppression, you're looking at quite a period of time before someone is dead.”
Dr. Treacy was Michael Jackson’s doctor when he lived in Ireland in 2006-2007.

Morning Session
Alberto Alvarez (AA) Testimony
Prosecutor Walgren direct examination
Month of June. AA says that he worked for MJ in Carolwood. AA was director of logistics, he was part of the advance team. He made sure everything was okay before MJ arrived to a venue.
AA worked for MJ on / off since 2004. AA was called to work for MJ December 2008 / January 2009. AA said it was a good full time job with a good salary.
Security would be in the trailer outside he house, they will only go inside when requested. Two different security : Property security and personal security. Personal security were MAW, FM, AA, Isaac and Derek.
AA saw CM first after January 2009 in Carolwood. April/ May/ June AA saw CM 5-6 times a week. AA knew that CM was staying the night. AA was aware about the oxygen tanks. AA from time to time saw CM bringing empty oxygen tanks and take full ones.
June 24th. After 5 PM they took MJ to rehearsals. AA made sure everything was in order in MJ green room (dressing room) such as arranging the room temperature, checked the venue for security. MJ came around 6:30 - 7:00PM. AA met MJ with golf cart and took him to his dressing room. MJ was very happy and in good spirits. AA was behind the stage. AA sometimes peeked to see his performance. AA believed his performance was good. After the rehearsal they did the same routine. MJ was still happy and in good spirits. They came to Carolwood. CM's car was already parked. MJ came home, they helped with the gifts. MJ said "goodnight".
After they unloaded the gifts, they secured the front door and went to the security trailer for debriefing. After they went to home and house security stayed.
June 25th AA came to Carolwood at 10:15AM. He sat down in the trailer and waited for any specific instructions. He was in the security trailer around 12:15 PM.
Phone records. 4 phone calls between MAW and AA, those were attempts to reach each another. Another call from MAW to AA, they finally spoke. MAW asked where was AA, told him to get up and go to the front of the house without much commotion. MAW asked him if he was walking AA said yes, MAW told him to run. AA came to the front door and tried to open it but it was locked. Nanny came and unlocked the door. From the glass door AA saw nanny Rosalind ,Paris, Kai Chase and CM on the second floor. CM had both hands on the rail and was looking down.
AA told MAW he was in the house. MAW told him to run up the stairs. Prince was upstairs walking opposite direction of AA.
Walgren shows pictures and layout of the house and asks AA to identify where CM was and identify the rooms.
AA said he only went upstairs 2 times in 6 months he worked for MJ to let MJ's hairdresser.
CM said to him "Alberto come quick", AA realized the situation was serious. AA hung up the phone call to MAW. AA followed CM into the room.
AA saw CM giving chest comprehensions to MJ. MJ was in the bed. AA saw MJ lying on his back, his hands extended out to his sides with palms up, his eyes and mouth was open. His face was slightly towards the left. CM was using one hand (his left hand) giving MJ chest comprehensions.
CM said to him they need to get him to a hospital. AA was walking towards the bed and reaching for his phone in his pocket. Prince and Paris followed him into the room, they were behind him. Paris screamed out "Daddy". Paris was crying. CM said "don't let them see their dad like this". AA ushered the children out the door and told them that everything will be okay and not to worry.
When returned AA asked CM what happened. CM said "he had a bad reaction". AA was at the foot of the bed.
AA saw some sort of a plastic device on his penis to collect urine. AA now knows that it was a condom catheter. AA did not see any monitoring equipment, no ventilation equipment. AA only saw a clear plastic tubing for Oxygen attached to MJ's nose. AA saw an IV stand.
CM got some vials from the night stand and asked AA to put them in a bag. AA held out the bag and CM dropped the vials. CM told AA to place that plastic grocery bag to the brown bag. Then CM told AA to get the bag in the IV stand and put it in the blue bag. AA says there was a bottle in the saline bag.
Walgren: "Why were you following these instructions?" AA " I believed CM had MJ's best intentions at mind, I didn't question his authority. I thought we were getting ready to go to the hospital".
IV stand has 2 hooks. One hook had a saline bag, CM didn't ask AA to remove that one. AA was only asked to remove the saline bag with the bottle. AA saw milky white substance at the bottom of the saline bag.

Mid morning break
AA says all these events happened very quickly. AA says he was obeying CM's instructions.
911 call is played in court. Alberto visibly upset and looks like about to cry when listening to the call.
AA and CM moved MJ from bed to the floor. AA saw a clear plastic tube coming from the bag on the IV coming to MJ's leg. CM removed it when they moved MJ. CM took pulse oximeter from a bag and clipped it to MJ's finger.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]48763[/ATTACH]
AA says a few days to a week before June 25th, CM asked the securities for AAA batteries. AA saw CM holding the device, AA had asked him what it was and CM said it was like a heart monitor.
FM arrived to the room. AA said "It's not looking good". CM asked if anyone knew CPR. AA and FM looked to each other. AA went to assist CM doing CPR. AA started doing chest comprehensions with two hands. AA knew CPR before that day, he learned it when he was a swimmer. CM was giving mouth to mouth. CM said "this is the first time I do mouth to mouth. but I have to because he's my friend". AA continued chest comprehensions. Paramedics arrived soon after and took over. AA says there was no indication that MJ was alive.
Paramedics moved MJ from the side of the bed to the foot of the bed. AA went downstars twice; to check on the childern and to meet MAW. When paramedics were bringing MJ down, AA was trying to distract MJ's kids so they wouldn't see their father like that.
At UCLA AA begged to paparrazzi to leave them alone saying it was a private moment, shielded MJ when going in, waited in the hospital. CM came to AA to thank for help, AA said "we did our best". At that moment AA didn't suspect that CM did anything wrong. CM first said he was hungry and asked if someone could take him home. AA didn't answer, CM then asked it to MAW. AA last saw CM outside the emergency room saying "I wanted him to make it".
AA and other security drove off after the announcement and MJ was taken to the coroners. They went to Carolwood, police was there. They stayed outside of the house while talking to the detectives. AA was asked to bring children's dog Kenya to Hayvenhurst.
20-30 times media approached to AA to give interviews and was offered money. Media have offerred him $200,000 to $500,000, AA said no. AA says this event was negative for his life. He went from a full time great wage job to bad financial position. AA says he's totally wiped financially. AA said he had been honest with the police to best of his ability.
