Summary of Preliminary Hearing Day 2 Jan 5th 2011

- Janet, Latoya, Randy, Rebbie, Katherine and Joe Jackson attend the hearing.

- Alberto Alvarez, Kai Chase and first responder EMT testifies.

Alberto Alvarez Testimony

- Alvarez says that he was the first one to walk into MJ's bedroom. He says when he walked in MJ was sprawled out on the bed with his eyes and mouth open, and Murray was administering chest compressions with one hand.

- The below is a part of his testimony
"Did it appear he was breathing," Walgren asked.
"No sir," Alvarez said.
"His eyes and mouth were open?" the prosecutor asked.
"Yes," the witness said.
"Did he seem to be alive or dead?" Walgren asked.
"Dead, sir," Alvarez said.

- Alvarez said that he was frozen by the sight.

- Alvarez asks "‘Dr. Murray, what happened?" and Murray tells him "He had a reaction. He had a bad reaction"

- Alvarez recalls MJ's kids Prince and Paris following him upstairs and Paris screaming "Daddy" and starting to cry.

- Murray says "Get them out. Don't let them see their father like this" to Alvarez.

- Alvarez says "I said, 'children, don't worry, we'll take care of him, please go outside.' And I escorted them out and left the door ajar,".

- After he escorted the children out of the room, Alvarez noticed the MJ’s penis was out of his underwear and tubing (condom catheter) was attached to it.

- "He just grabbed a handful of bottles, or vials, and he instructed me to put them in a bag," Alvarez testified, adding Murray also told him to place an intravenous bag into another sack. Alvarez said he grabbed a plastic bag from a chair and held it out as the doctor dropped the bottles inside, then put them in a brown canvas bag on the floor as Murray asked him to do. He also confirmed that 911 had not been called yet.

- Alvarez says that the I.V. bag had 'very little fluid' in it and that there was a 'white, milky substance' at the bottom of the I.V. bag.“I noticed that inside (the IV bag), there was like a bottle ... and then I noticed that at the bottom of the bag there was a milk-like substance,” Alvarez testified.

- Only after collecting the bottles, Murray tells Alvarez to call 911. He calls 911 in that call he tells the 911 operator that Jackson's private doctor was there, and she responded that he would be "the higher authority."

- Alvarez said he did not see any heart or blood pressure monitors in the room, but Murray clipped a monitoring device to Jackson’s finger after paramedics were called.

- When the operator said to transfer Jackson to the floor, Alvarez grabbed Jackson's legs and Murray grabbed his upper body. He said at that point he noticed the IV in Jackson's leg that had to be removed.

- On the floor Alvarez said, he did chest compressions while Murray gave the singer mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.“After the second time, he gave a breath, he came up and said, 'You know, this is the first time I give mouth to mouth, but I have to do it, he’s my friend,'" Alvarez said.

- Under cross examination Alvarez acknowledged he had not told police in two initial interviews that Murray had ordered him to remove potential evidence. Below is a part of testimony :

“You didn’t think it was suspicious?” asked defense lawyer Ed Chernoff.
“Apparently not, sir,” Alvarez said.
“You thought he was packing up to go to the hospital, right?” the lawyer asked.
“Yes, sir,” Alvarez replied.

- In cross examination Alvarez was also asked about his relationship with Jackson family and his discussions with other staff members of MJ. Alvarez acknowledged that he had refused to speak to a defense investigator who had sought to interview him, but that in a police interview he had said he might sell his story to the media at a later date.

- Defense also tested Alvarez by asking him to confirm whether it was dark in MJ's room - suggesting his observations may be inaccurate.

- Press accounts describe Alvarez as being tearful during testimony.

Kai Chase Testimony

- Chase testifies that around 12:05 Murray comes down the stairwell and tells her "Get security, get Prince". She says she told Prince "something might be wrong with your dad".

- Chase testifies from Murray's behavior it was evident there was an emergency. She also testified that Murray didn't ask her to call 911.

- She also testified that Murray generally comes down around 10 AM to get the juice she prepared for MJ, she says in that morning Murray didn't come down.

- She mentions that MJ was on an extremely healthy diet, dining on seared ahi tuna salad for lunch the day before he died and that she found it odd that the Tuscan white bean soup she prepared for MJ and Murray the night before and left in the refrigerator for when they returned from rehearsals was untouched when she came to work next day (8:30am).

EMT Richard Senneff Testimony

- EMT Senneff testified that what Murray has told them didn't add up and he had a "gut feeling" Murray wasn't telling the truth.

- For example Senneff said when they came in Murray told them MJ's condition had "just happened" but based on the MJ's dilated pupils, dry eyes and his skin, which was cold to the touch, Senneff believed Jackson may have been dead for more than 20 minutes. “All I can tell you is my gut feeling at the time was this did not just happen, it’s been a period of time,” Senneff testified.

- Senneff also testified that Murray told them Jackson had no underlying condition and was just being treated for dehydration, and that the only medication he had been given was the sedative lorazepam. He said even they repeatedly asked for what medications MJ was given, Murray never mentioned them propofol.

- Senneff testified when they initially came in they thought MJ to be a hospice patient and frail as he looked pale, thin and had a IV stand and a personal doctor by his bedside.

- Senneff testified that paramedics hooked MJ up to an EKG and he was flatline-his hands and feet ‘tinged blue’ and his pupils were fully dilated.

- Senneff testified that despite resuscitation efforts and three rounds of giving MJ epinephrine & atropine, paramedics did not feel a pulse on MJ and their attempts to revive MJ was unsuccessful. Senneff testified Conrad Murray was the only person who claimed to feel a pulse on MJ.

- Senneff testified that Murray refused to pronounce MJ dead on the scene.

- Senneff testified that at UCLA Murray was "spinning ... moving around, nervous, sweating, multitasking."

- In cross examination Murray's lawyers asks if the way MJ looked (thin, frail, black/bluish feet) could be signs of drug addict. Judge stops the question.

Do you remember telling Karen Faye of reading Michael the riot act? Do you remember telling Karen Fay not to placate Michael? Did you advise Karen Faye in any respect in regard to how to treat Michael after this meeting? Did you discuss with Karen Faye any thing regarding how she should treat Michael?" Kenny responds No or don't remember to this questions.

- Kenny says Michael missed a series of rehearsals (a week) in early June. He says this made him worried because everything needed Micheal's decision and/or approval and without it TII couldn't move forward.

- Kenny says on June 25th Michael was supposed to arrive to rehearsals around 4:00-4:30 PM.

(Kenny also mentions taking TII to international places (India and Japan) and Michael wanting to direct with Kenny after TII)

EMT: Murray Denied Giving MJ Drugs

Another paramedic testified ... Dr. Conrad Murray denied giving Michael Jackson drugs as the singer lay lifeless in his bedroom.

Martin Blount said when he walked into MJ's room Murray was sweating profusely. Blount says Murray told EMTs he waited only one minute before calling 911.

But another paramedic testified earlier he believed Murray waited between 20 minutes to an hour to call 911.

Senneff testimony continued today

- UCLA tells them to call MJ dead. Murray assumes control and does not make the call.

- Murray wants to insert a central line and give magnesium to MJ. Senneff says the EMT's are not trained in central lines and do not have magnesium at hand.

- At some point while EMT's are working on MJ someone in the room identifies him as Michael Jackson.

- When Murray says he heard a pulse on MJ's femoral artery (on the leg close to groin), Senneff checks the monitor. DA in cross examination ask if this can be a "false" pulse (pulse happens during CPR compressions).

- When they left the house a paparazzi puts a camera to the window of the ambulance and runs with the ambulance. Murray requests that they cover MJ's face with a towel. Paramedics find this as a reasonable request.

- Senneff says again they never heard a pulse and in his opinion MJ went down between 20 minutes and a hour prior their arrival.

Martin BLOUNT testimony

- Blount has 20 years experience, was the driver of the ambulance. He's the last of the paramedics in the room. He brings the gurney and other gear. He was by MJ's head.

- He inserts ET tube and gives air to MJ by pumping a hand pump. He sees an Oxygen tank and nasal canula (tubing that goes around the nose and connected to an Oxygen tank).

- Paramedics notice IV on MJ isn't working properly so they are looking for a new place to insert additional IV. They touch MJ's arms looking for a place and think that his body was "cool".

- Paramedics decide to stick the additional IV by the jugular, at that time they realize MJ's eyes were "blown". Blount's opinion is that MJ was already dead.

- Blount says at one time Murray showed them an hypodermic needle 24 gage which he calls strange as Murray told them he didn't give MJ anything. Also he sees bottles on the floor and bottles of lidocaine. He also calls "condom catheter" presence as odd.

- Murray makes a phone call in the ambulance.

- In cross examination Murray's lawyers say that Blount actually told detectives that MJ's skin "not warm, not cool".

- Blount says one of the paramedics asked Murray if MJ was taking recreational drugs. Murray says no.

- Murray's defense mentions a paramedic tried 3 times to find a vein on MJ's arms and couldn't and asks if finding veins on drug addicts are hard? Blount gives an example of a known drug addict and being able to find a vein. Defense again asks if it could be difficult. Blount agrees.

Paparazzi, fans hampered paramedics from getting stricken pop star to hospital

A paramedic who tried in vain to save Michael Jackson’s life testified Thursday that an unruly crowd of paparazzi and tourists outside the pop star’s home hampered efforts to get to the hospital.

“It’s a circus out there. It’s unbelievable,” recalled Los Angeles City Fire Department paramedic Richard Senneff of the scene outside Jackson’s Holmby Hills mansion June 25, 2009.

The witness testified on the second day of testimony at a hearing to determine whether there is enough evidence to try Dr. Conrad Murray for involuntary manslaughter. Senneff said that the ambulance driver had trouble navigating away from the residence because of a throng that included passengers of a tour bus and photographers with “big cameras, little cameras, video cameras, still cameras.”

At one point, a man with a video camera ran alongside the ambulance holding a camera with a large lens against the window. “It just seemed wrong,” he said. Under questioning by a defense lawyer, Senneff said Murray wanted to put a “central line” to restart Jackson’s heart, but that medics did not have equipment or training to do so. He said the singer did not respond to two rounds of drugs to revive him and hospital officials told him over the radio to “call” Jackson’s death, but that neither he nor Murray wanted to do so. “I said, 'Be advised, this is a very high-profile VIP,' ” Senneff said.

The 50-year-old singer was pronounced dead at UCLA Medical Center. Senneff said rescue workers had gone “above and beyond” the call of duty in the field not because Jackson was a celebrity, but “because it was someone’s son.” Katherine Jackson, the singer’s mother, listened intently in the courtroom gallery. Judge Michael Pastor also heard from a second paramedic who, like Senneff, said that Murray initially claimed he had not given his patient any medication.

Martin Blount said the denial struck him as odd because he saw a hypodermic needle and three bottles of lidocaine in the room. Murray, he said, “scooped up” the bottles and placed them in a bag before they left for the hospital. “Did you ever see those bottles again,” Deputy Dist. Atty. David Walgren asked. “No, sir,” Blount replied.

Re: Preliminary hearing 6/1/11 day Three. UPDATES ONLY. NO DISCUSSION

A paramedic sent to Michael Jackson's mansion says he saw the doctor charged in the singer's death scoop up three bottles of lidocaine from the floor and place the vials in a bag during efforts to revive the pop star.

Paramedic Martin Blount testified Thursday he was surprised to see the bottles because Dr. Conrad Murray had told paramedics he hadn't given Jackson any drugs.

He says Murray also produced a hypodermic needle at one point and wanted to use it on the singer. Blount says he and fellow paramedics refused.

He described Murray as frantic and sweating profusely.

Re: Preliminary hearing 6/1/11 day Three. UPDATES ONLY. NO DISCUSSION

Little additional info about Blount's testimony

Blount said he thinks Jackson may have been dead for at least 20 minutes before he and other emergency personnel arrived.

Murray's defense attorney, Joseph Low IV, did not ask Blount about the bottles (3 bottles of lidocaine) on cross-examination.

Blount said Murray told paramedics that Jackson had passed out about a minute before 911 was called. However, Blount's partner, paramedic Richard Senneff, previously testified that Jackson's hands and feet were turning blue by the time he arrived.

Senneff testified Wednesday that Murray never mentioned that he had given Jackson propofol, and that he saw no signs in the room of propofol or other sedatives that were later found in Jackson's body.

TMZ

Phone Company -- Murray Called Everyone BUT 911

Two reps from the phone company testified in the hours surrounding the revelation that Michael Jackson was lifeless in bed, Murray was texting and calling lots of people, but never called 911.

The records show Murray was sending and receiving multiple texts. Two particularly interesting ones at 12:03 and 12:04 PM ... the person Murray was texting was in Texas.

It's unclear if the texts had anything to do with the two woman in Murray's office who went to a storage facility to retrieve boxes.

Murray also called a number of people, including his girlfriend, Nicole Alvarez, but the only record shows 1:08 PM. This is inconsistent with what law enforcement tells TMZ -- that he was on the phone with Alvarez just after 12 noon and when Murray realized MJ was in distress he dropped the phone.

Trials and Tribulations update

There were two witnesses that introduced phone records. It was rapid fire information and I missed quite a bit of it. I will probably summarize it since it was just to introduce the phone calls and text messages records. The actual content of those phone calls and text messages will come later. The most interesting thing is to see "when" Dr. Murray was on the phone and how long those phone calls and messages lasted. And, Dr. Murray had two phones. An iPhone and a Sprint-Nextel phone registered to him. And it appears he was actively using both phones for text and calls all through the morning of June 25th.

Trials and Tribulations is following Murray Prelim and they are taking detailed notes.They are also making updates from the court.

CNN In Session

The 8th witness in the Conrad Murray hearing was Harry Daliwal-Sales Manager with AT&T and is familiar with the biz records AT&T keeps.

Daliwal testifies there were 8 phone calls - 4 incoming, 4 outgoing - between the hours of 9:23 a.m. and 12:15 on June 25th on Murray cell.

Daliwal says there are also several text and data messages connected to Murray's phone from the morning of June 25th.

On cross, Daliwal says there is a way for AT&T to retrieve text messages and voicemails, but he is not an expert in that area.

Conrad Murray Hearing: The 9th witness is Jeff Strohn - a records custodian for Sprint Nextel.

Strohn's records verify the existence of a cell phone and data from a cell registered to Conrad Murray.

Strohn's documents show there were 6 phone calls - 3 outgoing & 3 incoming - associated with Murray's phone number.

Conrad Murray texted, use cellphone when he should have been monitoring pop star, prosecutors say

Dr. Conrad Murray was talking on the phone and texting during the period authorities say he should have been closely monitoring Michael Jackson’s vital signs, according to records prosecutors displayed in court Thursday.

In the approximately five hours before Murray discovered that his famous patient had stopped breathing, he had 11 phone conversations on two different phones. A trio of back-to-back calls lasting 45 minutes led directly to the moment when prosecutors say the physician realized Jackson was in cardiac arrest.

The records were presented on the third day of a Superior Court hearing to determine whether prosecutors have enough evidence to try Murray for involuntary manslaughter in Jackson’s June 25, 2009 death.

Prosecutors have accused him of an “extreme deviation” from the standard of medical care by, among other things, administering the surgical anesthetic propofol without proper monitoring. There are no witnesses to the treatment Murray provided Jackson nightly because the singer did not permit employees upstairs in his mansion, but a prosecutor said in his opening statement that the phone records are circumstantial evidence that he was distracted and not paying attention to the singer.

According to testimony from a phone company representative, Murray sent or received five text messages on his iPhone in this period. His phone conversations on that phone and a Sprint cellphone included calls with his practice in Las Vegas, a clinic he runs in Houston, an employee and another doctor. All told, he spent close to an hour and a half on the phone in the five-hour period.

The records also show the frantic call Murray, 57, placed to Jackson’s personal assistant after he found the performer lifeless in the bed and a two-minute call with his girlfriend, Nicole Alvarez, apparently made while Murray was riding in the back of an ambulance with his patient.

He also sent two text messages just within a minute or two of the time when prosecutors believe he saw Jackson was stricken. Harry Daliwal, an AT&T area manager, testified that it is possible to recover the contents of text messages, but that he does not know how to do so.

UCLA Docs -- Michael Was DOA

Two doctors from the UCLA Medical Center testified ... Michael Jackson was dead on arrival, yet Dr. Murray told them "not to give up easily and try to save the patient."

Dr. Richelle Cooper testified when Jackson arrived at UCLA there was "no signs of life."

Dr. Cooper added Murray was not forthcoming about the drugs administered to MJ. Cooper says Murray copped to giving Michael lorezapam, but made no mention of Propofol.

And this was interesting. Cooper says MJ weighed 136 lbs.

Dr. Thao Nguyen testified Dr. Murray denied giving MIchael any sedatives or narcotcs.

They do not wish their full notes to be copied and posted so as they post a update I'll go through and make a summary here. If you want to read their full posts you can visit Trials and Tribulationwebsite.


Dr. Cooper

- UCLA receives call from paramedics. They estimate time of cardiac arrest as 12:18 (this is an "estimated time" based on 911 call and information they receive). As the revival efforts produce no results Dr. Cooper gave the paramedics permission to pronounce MJ dead at 12:57. Dr. Cooper told for the transport Murray had to take over the control and be with the patient.

- When they come to the hospital Murray tells MJ wasn't ill only had trouble sleeping and dehydrated, gave him lorezapeam, witnessed the cardiac arrest. She's later asked what is "witnessing the arrest" means she says "seeing patient stop breathing".

- Dr. Cooper asks if there were any chest pain before cardiac arrest, Murray says no.

- Murray mentions Flomax and Valium.

- Dr. Cooper says MJ was DOA (no sign of life, pupils fixed and dilated, no pulse, no sign of trauma) still tried to revive him, they worked on MJ for 1 hour 26 minutes. She says she never felt or observed pulse on MJ.

- Dr. Cooper also asked Murray about recreational drug use. She says this is a common question as MJ came in with an unexplained cardiac arrest (they didn't know propofol).

- Dr. Cooper gets asked a lot of questions about propofol and it's usage (if she knows the drug, if she used it and such). Cooper says "Protocol requires certain monitoring to administer propofol. There needs to be equipment available to monitor the airway. There must be heart monitoring. There has to be a staff person available as their only job to monitor the euqipment/patient. So that the patient doesn’t die"

- Dr. Cooper is asked how much propofol she would give to someone MJ's weight (136 lb), she says she would start with 60mg. She says a dose of 25mg wouldn't last longer than 5-10 minutes and a dose wears of in 20-30 minutes.

- Cross examination Dr. Cooper is asked if she knew Murray given MJ propofol it would have made any difference in her treatment. She says no, she was treating cardiac arrest. She also adds getting drug history helps them give the relevant treatment and understand what happened.

- Walgren asks if the drugs on top of drugs were given to MJ, that would be an accumulative effect? Dr. Cooper answers yes.

- Murray was in the ER room and hands on.

Dr. Thao Nguyen

- She is a cardiologist and is called to the ER by Dr. Cooper.

- She says Murray never mentioned Propofol or benzodiazapine medications.

- Murray also tells her that MJ was getting ready for a tour, had trouble sleeping and he gave him 4 miligrams of adavan (mirazapam) via IV. She asks Murray if he tried to reverse the effect of the adavan? Murray says no. She asks if he gave any other medicines , Murray says no.

- Murray tells he doesn't have a watch and he doesn't know how long MJ was down. Murray couldn't give an estimate about when the drug was injected and how long MJ was down.

- She does the balloon pump although she thinks it wouldn't work based on everything done already. An agreement was made with Dr. Murray that if the balloon pump failed, then they would call the time of death.

Dr. Thao Nguyen

- She is asked how much mirazapan she would give to 136 lb patient. She says that she would start with a small dose of 1 mg and need to know the prior use of the drug with the patient.

- She says Murray's voice sounded calm and normal but he looked devastated.

- She says Murray didn't want them to stop the efforts.

CNN In Session

Dr. Richelle Cooper is the 10th witness to take the stand.

Dr. Cooper is an attending physician at UCLA Hospital and was working as an ER doctor the day that MJ was brought to the hospital.

Dr. Cooper says the estimated time of MJ cardiac arrest was 12:18 p.m.

Cooper gave permission to pronounce MJ dead at 12:57 p.m. but was told that MJ personal doc wanted to continue with life saving efforts.

Dr. Cooper testifies MJ, Murray and emergency personnel got to the ER around 1:13 p.m.

Dr. Cooper says Murray informed her that he’d given MJ Lorazepam and that MJ 'takes Valium and Flomax'

Cooper says even though she thought MJ was dead when he arrived to the ER, efforts to revive him went on for about an hour and 13 minutes.

Dr. Cooper says Murray never told her he’d given Jackson propofol.

On cross Cooper tells defense attorney J. Michael Flanagan even if she'd known MJ was given Propofol it wouldn’t have altered ER treatment.

The 11th witness is Dr. Thao Nguyen - a cardiology fellow at UCLA.

Dr. Nguyen was in the ER the day MJ was brought in. She remembers seeing Conrad Murray there as well.

Dr. Nguyen says while they were in the ER, Murray told her MJ had difficulty sleeping and he’d given him Lorazepam - no other meds.

Nguyen testifies Murray told her he found MJ not breathing but he couldn’t remember the time.

Nguyen says Murray’s exact words were he ‘did not have any concept of time’ which is why he was unable to say when MJ stopped breathing.

On cross examination Nguyen describes Murray as appearing devastated in the ER.

Cooper officially pronounced MJ dead at 2:26 p.m.

The 12th witness to take the stand is Dan Myers – a senior homicide detective with the LAPD.

Myers was one of the lead investigators into MJ death.

Myers went through Conrad Murray AT&T and Nextel cell phone records to identify the people whose numbers were indicated in the records.

Court is in recess. Dan Myers' testimony will continue tomorrow.

Conrad Murray Preliminary Hearing January 6 2011 / Day 3 Summary

- EMT Richard Senneff, EMT Martin Blount, Harry Daliwal (AT&T), Jeff Strohn (Sprint Nextel), Dr. Richelle Cooper (UCLA), Dr. Thao Nguyen (UCLA) and Detective Dan Myers testifies.

EMT Richard Senneff Testimony

- Senneff testifies that Murray wanted to insert a central line and give magnesium to MJ. Senneff says the EMT's are not trained in central lines and do not have magnesium at hand.

- When Murray says he heard a pulse on MJ's femoral artery (on the leg close to groin), Senneff checks the monitor. DA in cross examination ask if this can be a "false" pulse (pulse happens during CPR compressions).

- Senneff said the singer did not respond to two rounds of drugs to revive him and hospital officials told him over the radio to “call” Jackson’s death, but that neither he nor Murray wanted to do so. “I said, 'Be advised, this is a very high-profile VIP,' ” Senneff said.

-Senneff said rescue workers had gone “above and beyond” the call of duty in the field not because Jackson was a celebrity, but “because it was someone’s son.”

- When they left the house a paparazzi puts a camera to the window of the ambulance and runs with the ambulance. “It just seemed wrong,” Senneff said. Murray requests that they cover MJ's face with a towel. Paramedics find this as a reasonable request.

- Senneff said that the ambulance driver had trouble navigating away from the residence because of a throng that included passengers of a tour bus and photographers with “big cameras, little cameras, video cameras, still cameras.”

- Senneff says again they never heard a pulse and in his opinion MJ went down between 20 minutes and a hour prior their arrival.

EMT Martin Blount Testimony

- Blount has 20 years experience, was the driver of the ambulance. He's the last of the paramedics in the room. He brings the gurney and other gear. He was by MJ's head.

- He inserts ET tube and gives air to MJ by pumping a hand pump. He sees an Oxygen tank and nasal canula (tubing that goes around the nose and connected to an Oxygen tank).

- Paramedics notice IV on MJ isn't working properly so they are looking for a new place to insert additional IV. They touch MJ's arms looking for a place and think that his body was "cool".

- Paramedics decide to stick the additional IV by the jugular, at that time they realize MJ's eyes were "blown" (fixed and dilated). Blount's opinion is that MJ was already dead. Blount said Murray told paramedics that MJ had passed out about a minute before 911 was called.

- Blount says at one time Murray showed them an hypodermic needle 24 gage which he calls strange as Murray told them he didn't give MJ anything. He also said that paramedics refused to use the needle. Also he sees bottles of lidocaine on the floor. He also calls "condom catheter" presence as odd.

- Blount says he saw Murray scoop up three bottles of lidocaine from the floor and place the vials in a bag during they are trying to revive MJ.

- Blount describes Murray as frantic and sweating profusely.

- Murray makes a phone call in the ambulance.

- In cross examination Murray's lawyers say that Blount actually told detectives that MJ's skin "not warm, not cool".

- Blount says one of the paramedics asked Murray if MJ was taking recreational drugs. Murray says no.

- Murray's defense mentions a paramedic tried 3 times to find a vein on MJ's arms and couldn't and asks if finding veins on drug addicts are hard? Blount gives an example of a known drug addict and being able to find a vein. Defense again asks if it could be difficult. Blount agrees.

Harry Daliwal (AT&T) Testimony

11:26 am from 9566 to Murray seven seconds

Overall cell phone activity summary:

- In the approximately five hours before Murray discovered MJ, he had 11 phone conversations on two different phones. Three back-to-back calls lasted 45 minutes just before Murray discovered MJ.

- According to testimony from a phone company representative, Murray sent or received five text messages on his iPhone in this period. His phone conversations on that phone and a Sprint cellphone included calls with his practice in Las Vegas, a clinic he runs in Houston, an employee and another doctor. All told, he spent close to an hour and a half on the phone in the five-hour period.

- The records also show the call from Murray to Michael Amir (MJ's personal assistant) and a two-minute call with his girlfriend, Nicole Alvarez, apparently made while Murray was riding in the back of an ambulance.

- Murray also sent two text messages just within a minute or two of the time when prosecutors believe he saw Jackson was stricken.

Dr. Richelle Cooper (UCLA) Testimony

- UCLA receives call from paramedics. They estimate time of cardiac arrest as 12:18 (this is an "estimated time" based on 911 call and information they receive). As the revival efforts produce no results Dr. Cooper gave the paramedics permission to pronounce MJ dead at 12:57. She was told that MJ personal doc wanted to continue with life saving efforts. Dr. Cooper told for the transport Murray had to take over the control and be with the patient.

- Dr. Cooper testifies MJ, Murray and emergency personnel got to the ER around 1:13 p.m.. When they come to the hospital Murray tells MJ wasn't ill only had trouble sleeping and dehydrated, gave him lorezapeam, witnessed the cardiac arrest. She's later asked what is "witnessing the arrest" means she says "seeing patient stop breathing".

- Dr. Cooper asks if there were any chest pain before cardiac arrest, Murray says no.

- Murray mentions Flomax and Valium.

- Dr. Cooper says MJ was DOA (no sign of life, pupils fixed and dilated, no pulse, no sign of trauma) still tried to revive him, they worked on MJ for 1 hour 26 minutes. She says she never felt or observed pulse on MJ.

- Dr. Cooper also asked Murray about recreational drug use. She says this is a common question as MJ came in with an unexplained cardiac arrest (they didn't know propofol).

- Dr. Cooper gets asked a lot of questions about propofol and it's usage (if she knows the drug, if she used it and such). Cooper says "Protocol requires certain monitoring to administer propofol. There needs to be equipment available to monitor the airway. There must be heart monitoring. There has to be a staff person available as their only job to monitor the euqipment/patient. So that the patient doesn’t die"

- Dr. Cooper is asked how much propofol she would give to someone MJ's weight (136 lb), she says she would start with 60mg. She says a dose of 25mg wouldn't last longer than 5-10 minutes and a dose wears of in 20-30 minutes.

- Cross examination Dr. Cooper is asked if she knew Murray given MJ propofol it would have made any difference in her treatment. She says no, she was treating cardiac arrest. She also adds getting drug history helps them give the relevant treatment and understand what happened.

- Walgren asks if the drugs on top of drugs were given to MJ, that would be an accumulative effect? Dr. Cooper answers yes.

- Murray was in the ER room and hands on.

Dr. Thao Nguyen (UCLA) Testimony

- She is a cardiologist and is called to the ER by Dr. Cooper.

- She says Murray never mentioned Propofol or benzodiazapine medications.

- Murray also tells her that MJ was getting ready for a tour, had trouble sleeping and he gave him 4 miligrams of adavan (mirazapam) via IV. She asks Murray if he tried to reverse the effect of the adavan? Murray says no. She asks if he gave any other medicines , Murray says no.

- Murray tells he doesn't have a watch and he doesn't know how long MJ was down. Murray couldn't give an estimate about when the drug was injected and how long MJ was down. Nguyen says Murray’s exact words were he ‘did not have any concept of time’ which is why he was unable to say when MJ stopped breathing.

- She does the balloon pump although she thinks it wouldn't work based on everything done already. An agreement was made with Dr. Murray that if the balloon pump failed, then they would call the time of death.

- She is asked how much mirazapan she would give to 136 lb patient. She says that she would start with a small dose of 1 mg and need to know the prior use of the drug with the patient.

- She says Murray's voice sounded calm and normal but he looked devastated.

- She says Murray didn't want them to stop the efforts.

Detective Dan Myers testimony

ER doc: Jackson dead long before hospital arrival

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Before paramedics wheeled Michael Jackson into the emergency room, Dr. Richelle Cooper was sure he was dead.

More than an hour of resuscitation efforts at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center didn't change her opinion — the King of Pop had died in the bedroom of his rented mansion.

Based on what Jackson's personal physician told her, though, she didn't quite know why.
Murray told her he had seen Jackson stop breathing and immediately started CPR, but prosecutors say that's not what happened. Instead, over three days and a dozen witnesses at a preliminary hearing, they have put forth a timeline in which Jackson died in the bedroom of his rented mansion and Murray delayed calling 911 to conceal his actions.

Cooper testified she authorized paramedics to pronounce Jackson dead at 12:57 p.m., but they declined at Murray's request and because of the singer's celebrity. After an ambulance ride trailed by paparazzi and more than an hour of efforts in the ER, Cooper officially pronounced Jackson dead at 2:26 p.m. on June 25, 2009.

She said that Murray never told her he had given Jackson the anesthetic propofol, which Cooper said she typically uses in the ER for patients with head trauma or serious injuries.
The Houston-based cardiologist charged in Jackson's death also didn't mention several other sedatives he administered, which Cooper said could have amplified the propofol's effects and caused Jackson to stop breathing before his heart stopped beating.

The testimony came during a multi-day preliminary hearing in which a judge will decide whether there is enough evidence for Murray to stand trial on an involuntary manslaughter charge. Murray, who has pleaded not guilty, faces up to four years in prison if convicted.

With Cooper and another UCLA doctor, prosecutors have elicited testimony from five witnesses who said Murray either never mentioned the all the drugs he had given Jackson, or tried to conceal them.

Paramedic Martin Blount, who also testified Thursday, said he saw Murray scoop up three vials of the painkiller lidocaine from the floor of Jackson's bedroom during resuscitation efforts. Blount said he was surprised to see the medications because Murray had told him that he hadn't given the singer any drugs.

Murray's attorney, Joseph Low IV, did not even question Blount's description of the lidocaine, although another defense attorney pointedly questioned the UCLA doctors about whether candid disclosures from the doctor would have saved Jackson.

Cooper said while it wouldn't have changed her efforts to revive Jackson, knowing that Murray had given the singer several sedatives and propofol would have added to her understanding of why the singer had died.

"I would be concerned particularly if there were other medications given, that it would lead to a respiratory arrest, which would lead to a cardiac arrest," Cooper said.

Nicole Alvarez, a girlfriend Murray called while riding in the ambulance to UCLA, has been ordered to appear in court on Friday. The hearing will also feature detectives, coroner's officials and experts on propofol's effects in the coming days.

Before the hearing is over, a judge may hear Murray's version of events as well, as he relayed them to police detectives three days after Jackson's death.

Deputy District Attorney David Walgren has said he will use Murray's statements and testimony to show that the 57-year-old's actions represented "an extreme deviation from the standard of care."

SMOKING GUN IN MICHAEL JACKSON'S DEATH

A girlfriend of Dr. Conrad Murray's at the time of Michael Jackson's death just established for prosecutors Murray waited around 25 minutes after noticing MJ was lifeless before calling 911.

Sade Anding -- who was in Houston the day MJ died -- testified she received a call from Murray at around 12:30 PM. It's unclear if she was referring to Pacific or Central time.

But there is only one call in the phone records from Murray to Sade, and that's at 11:51 AM PT.

Sade says Murray was asking her how she was doing and she started talking about her day. She spoke for a few minutes and realized Murray wasn't on the phone anymore.

Sade then said she heard commotion, as if the phone was in his pocket, and heard "coughing and voices."

Sade estimates the entire call lasted 5 minutes.

The 911 call wasn't made until 12:21, which means -- if Murray did indeed first realize MJ was in distress at around 11:55 PT, there was a long delay in sounding the alarm.

CNN In Session

Cross of Det. Dan Myers was 1st today in Conrad Murray. Myers said his part of investigation focused on Murray’s calls day of MJ’s death.

Next witness was TX cocktail waitress & Murray's girlfriend at time of MJ's death, Sade Anding. Murray was on the phone w/Anding when MJ died

------------------

A former girlfriend of the doctor charged in the death of Michael Jackson says he called her the morning of the singer's death and she heard commotion in the background.

Sade Anding testified Friday she was talking to Dr. Conrad Murray but at one point realized he wasn't paying attention to her. She says she heard coughing and mumbling but didn't recognize the voice as Murray.

Anding says she stayed on the line for five to six minutes, but Murray never got back on the phone.

Murray's GF Describes Deliveries, No Mention of Propofol

Dr. Conrad Murray's baby mama, Nicole Alvarez, testified today about multiple packages Murray had sent to her Los Angeles apartment between April and June 2009.

Although the contents of the packages were not mentioned, TMZ first reported back in October 2009 ... those packages were shipped from Murray pharmacy in Las Vaegas and contained Propofol.

Alvarez was also one of the people that received a phone call from Dr. Murray on the day Jackson died -- but the prosecution did not question her about the call. Murray's team declined to cross-examine.

Re: Preliminary hearing 7/1/11 day Four. UPDATES ONLY. NO DISCUSSION

From Erin whos in the courtroom.

1st witness: Bridget Morgan - Met Murray in a club in Vegas in 2003. Personal relationsip. She was dismissed after that.

Nicole Alverez - lost her memory apparently at 29. She was a stripper... when she began a relationship with Murray? Couldn't remember. Around 2008? Possibly... (cant remember.) Murray lived with you through March April May and June of 09? Yes.

Lots of q's she couldn't recall... She couldn't recall when or how they exchanged numbers, or calls cuz they were on a "need to know basis...?" Asked did she pay her rent? Yes but she doesnt knows how much. Baby born in March and Murray stayed more after that...

She didnt know murray worked for MJ! (HAHAHA) - "need to know basis again." She DID find out Murray work at sometime but didn't know in what line (HES A FREKING DOCTOR) and didn't know he was in MJ's house. She asked to repeat lots of times... Judge gave out to her for this and she started answering quicker...

She never asked when Murray was coming or going... She signed for things from Allied Pharmacy from Vegas when he was away but says she never knew what was in the packages... They asked was this her signature in certain exhibits and she kept saying PERHAPS and she wasn't sure?! She was very arrogant and snippety. "I can't recall" she said for almost all questions... acted very dramatic... Shes finished now.

State rested has now RESTED. Defense chance to call witnesses.

There a massive buzz according to Erin with Lawyers reviewing case - There is Implied Malice which is EXPLICITLY FOR THE CHARGE OF SECOND DEGREE MURDER. Why DA went to prelim instead of grand jury. According to buzz, this should have been ended by now, reviewed by the D.A. and brought straight to trail. The charges can be upped pretty easily apparently and they can even dismiss and refile to give more time for the new charges...

CNN In Session

The next witness is Bridgette Morgan. She met Murray at a club in 2002 and says they developed a 'social relationship'.

Nicole Alvarez is the next witness called. She says and Murray met around 2005 at a club in Las Vegas.

Alvarez says that she and Murray developed an ‘intimate relationship’ but she doesn’t recall if he told her that he was still married.

In March of 2009 Alvarez gave birth to Murray’s son.

Alvarez testifies Murray would sleep overnight at her apartment ‘quite frequently’…up to 2 weeks at a time.

Alvarez is unsure about the year she learned Conrad Murray was working for Michael Jackson.

Alvarez says Murray invited her on a trip to England – Murray already told her that he was accompanying MJ on the same trip.

Alvarez testifies on a few occasions Murray would tell her that some packages would be delivered for him to her apt.

Alvarez confirms that on several occasions, the shipper for the packages was Applied Pharmacy Services in Las Vegas.
