Powerful sedative found in Michael Jackson's home
The powerful sedative Diprivan was found in Michael Jackson's home, a law
enforcement official said Friday as the city planned for a massive crowd at
the singer's memorial service.
Diprivan is an anesthetic widely used in operating rooms to induce
unconsciousness. Also known as Propofol, it's given intravenously and is
very unusual to have in a private home
The law enforcement official spoke on condition of anonymity because the
person was not authorized to speak about the matter
A Los Angeles Police spokesman, Lt. John Romero, declined to discuss the
case. "It's an ongoing investigation," he said
The cause of Jackson's death has not been determined. Autopsy results are
not expected for several weeks.
At the downtown Staples Center, where Jackson's memorial will be held
Tuesday morning, Assistant Police Chief Earl Paysinger said anywhere from
250,000 to 700,000 people could try to reach the arena, even though only
17,500 tickets will be available.
City Councilwoman Jan Perry urged people to stay home and watch the
memorial on TV. There will not be a funeral procession through the city.
Tickets to Jackson's memorial service will be free. They can be obtained by
registering at Staplescenter.com. There will be 11,000 tickets for seats
inside Staples Center and 6,500 for seats in the adjacent Nokia Theatre,
where fans can watch a simulcast. On Saturday night, 8,750 names will be
randomly selected to receive two tickets each.
