Santa Barbara County Sheriff's deputies who raided Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch back in 2003 found a syringe, powerful narcotics, vials and IV bags containing what could be anesthesia.

We've obtained documents that were part of the Sheriff's Department's investigation detailing what was found in the search. Among the items ...

-- A vial of Versed -- a powerful sedative
-- Several IV bags containing "a milky white fluid, located in a small cardboard box on top of the bathtub." Propofol and other anesthesias are milky white. As we first reported, Propofol was in Jackson's home the day he died.
-- A vial of Promethazine -- an antihistamine with strong sedative effects
-- A bottle of Alprazolam (generic for Xanax, a powerful anti-anxiety drug)
-- A bottle of Percocet -- a painkiller
-- A syringe
-- A vial with Demerol in it
-- Numerous loose pills outside bottles
-- A bottle of Prednisone -- a steroid
-- Ery-tab -- an antibiotic
-- Prescriptions for Xanax that had been filled
-- A prescription for Alprazolam
-- Oxygen tanks
-- IV stands

46. gee...goes to show the only one that was f****** was Michael by these unethical bastards disguised as doctors. Why the hell didn't Larry king ask "Arnie" if he was seeing a medical doctor for Lupus. A dermotologist should not treat lupus I know a thing or two about autoimmune diseases from close family members and they were not seeing dermotologists to treat them. Try Rheumatolgists. Because of family and my own history I have a lot of these items in my house as fallout...it is difficult to get but I do not abuse these items and some I will never use but just keep as posterity and a remembrance of the past. You can look in anyone's medicine cabinet ....xanax and alprazolam are not that difficult to get and I bet everyone has these medications. Prednisone treats Lupus and one with Lupus usually needs potent pain medication. More should be revealed about the severity of this disease it is not just like having a cold.

So, how can somebody with the emotional stability of a 10 year old and drug abuser be a good father?
Any smart answer to that, tanya?

49. It was the constant public scrutiny and judgement that led him to take these painkillers. He just wanted to shut away the criticism he constantly endured and the only way he could do that was to put himself to sleep. It is horrible. We drove him to it and now three children don't have a father. If you were bullied by the world's media the way he was, wouldn't you want to shut it out? His addiction may have led him to do questionable things, but I personally think he is even more amazing cause he could STILL perform like that with those sedatives in his body.

50. Am I lead to believe that possibly that he went into a deep induction anesthesia like state with no respiratory equipment in house? This all could have been prevented. Blame the greedy doctors who chose to support Michael's habits. He could have gone away for 2-3 months and free himself from all this crap but no his docs chose the chase the dragon. I did not believe Dr Klein for one minute on Larry King. Do they think we are really that stupid?

53. Hawk1 -

I never addressed the issue of him being a father but since you brought it up I will say this one thing and that's the end.

He was emotionally vulnerable for many different reasons which I'm not going to go into great detail due to time constraints. Keep in mind I said emotionally vulnerable NOT mentally handicapped. We keep discussing drug use. MJ had health ailments and one of them was lupus. My mother has lupus and she has to inject herself with medications and take oral medication too. She also takes medication for anxiety and to go to sleep. She never had these issues until she was in an accident and diagnosed at that time with lupus. Therefore, I have no idea how much or how often MJ used prescription drugs. That is not my job to judge.

I know MJ had staff and there are home videos showing that he was a very loving, caring father. To sum it up, the little girl Paris said her daddy was 'the best father you could ever imagine'. I believe the child and what others around him have also said about his ability as a parent. It's not for us to speculate.

54. Hustler and Naughty Neighbor are NOT pedophile porn!! They're straight porn.

55. I understand why he took so many drugs, if he really did. Have a look at everything he went through in his life. Some people would ask for drugs for way less than that. Leave him alone for once.

56. Miss Taylor was probably sharing drugs with MJ. She's had her share of drug problems too.

57. Sorry, but you guys need to get your facts straight.

Promethazine isn't "an antihistamine with powerful sedative effects," it's an antiemetic (anti-vomiting medication), usually given in concert with opioids (especially Vicodin) or certain anti-cancer medications to relieve severe nausea.

Prednisone is a corticosteroid (NOT an anabolic steroid), which is used to treat various types of inflammation and is used in the treatment of some autoimmune disorders.

This group of pills, along with the IV equipment, actually suggests someone with legitimate health problems, as opposed to a drug seeker. You're deliberately trying to make everything sound illicit -- especially your listing of alprazolam (a very MILD anxiolytic) three separate times.

Cheap shot.

58. OMG Michael was such an inspiration to the world. I have decided to go out and score some K and am going to be off my face all weekend.

59. Looks like the kids took care of him. I saw somewhere that he went through 10,000 pills in the last 6 months

What a shame.
