The doctor questioned by police over the death of Michael Jackson says the pop star was alive when he found him.
Dr Conrad Murray has revealed the King of Pop was in his bed with a faint pulse on Thursday morning.
Murray’s lawyer, Edward Chernoff, said the doctor went into Jackson’s bedroom and saw he wasn’t breathing.
Chernoff added: “He just happened to find him in his bed, and he wasn’t breathing. Mr Jackson was still warm and had a pulse.”
Chernoff said Murray immediately began administering CPR.
The lawyer also insisted his client did not prescribe or give Jackson the powerful painkillers Demerol or OxyContin. Chernoff says any drugs Murray did prescribe were given in response to a specific complaint from Jackson.
Murray was questioned by LAPD for three hours on Saturday but police have said he is not suspected of anything and helped to “clarify” some inconsistencies in the singer’s death.
