While authorities plan an autopsy Friday for Michael Jackson’s body, the Jackson family lawyer spoke out on the CBS series, “The Early Show,” about his past concerns of Jackson taking prescription drugs due to injuries from performing.
“I had warned everyone that I could warn and I told them that one day, Michael Jackson is going to wake up dead, which is a very odd way of putting it,” Brian Oxman said on the show. “I do not want to point fingers at anyone because I want to hear what the toxicology report says and the coroner says but the plain fact of the matter is that Michael Jackson had prescription drugs at his disposal at all times.
“The bottom line was that he was under the influence of prescription medications for most of the time and it was dangerous and I’ve sworn that it was dangerous and all the warnings went unheeded.”
