![Whitney Houston -- Prescription Drugs Found ... Possible Drowning [Exclusive Photo Update]](http://ll-media.tmz.com/2012/02/12/0211-hero-whitney2-248x127.jpg)
One question investigators will have for Michael Jackson's personal physician: Did he botch early CPR efforts on the King of Pop?
On the 911 tape obtained by TMZ, one of Jackson's staffers tells the dispatcher that Jackson is "on the bed" and that a "doctor is here." The doctor is Dr. Conrad Murray.
Several EMTs tell us it's odd that a veteran cardiologist like Murray would attempt CPR while Jackson was on a bed.
Common CPR practices call for the patient to be on a hard surface -- because it is difficult to compress the chest on a soft surface. The 911 operator told the staffer to "get him on the floor."
Cops have yet to officially interview Dr. Murray, but this will almost certainly come up.

That doctor is at fault, regardless! At that point, he was trying to save his own ass by saving Michael.
that's like basic cpr rule of thumb, sounds like he was gone awhile before the call was ever made...
MICHAEL SHOULD HAVE HRED A NURSE. THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO CAN KEEP A DOCTOR FROM KILLING YOU.
I have a feeling that in the end, it will be determined that he overdosed on Demerol!

We will never ever know what happened... I pray for peace for his children. I really liked Michael Jackson and my sorrow today is that he did not have a normal life, ever.
Peace and blessings to the 3 children. Michael, rest now in peace.
even a regular person not a doctor knows you need to get them on the floor to start cpr you need to have lay on something hard to pump the chest
Glorified drug dealer.He was just a doctor like an abortion doctor is a doctor.
I preform CPR on all my Insurance agents as one of my perks for being there DM as my wife is so ugly.
could of been a hard bed..... as long as he is able to get the chest compressed he doesnt necesarily have to put mj on the floor.
Sounds like something fishy was going on after MJ was in distress. CPR 101 dictates a victim be placed on a hard surface, like a floor.
And why has Dr. Murray taken the high road and can't be found? My opinion, he screwed up big time.
It is common practice but since Michael was so small framed being on the bed might not have mattered.
people just gonna analyze this forever, let the man rest in peace because he never had any on earth, hopefully he will have it in the after life. hes paid a debt we all have to pay one day no matter if we think its to soon or not, every thing happens for a reason r.i.p. michael jackson
maybe a defribrilator would of saved him. CPR wont save you from a heart attack...
OK.......Why was the Doc alone with Michael? Was the DOC on Demoral...mmmmmmmmm strangeeeee
