The two women who allegedly went to Dr. Conrad Murray's Houston storage unit and removed boxes just hours before Michael Jackson was pronounced dead are telling inconsistent stories about what was taken from the storage facility.
We spoke with LaQuisha Middleton and her sister, LaQuanda Price, both of whom worked for Dr. Murray at the time. LaQuisha is the office manager. LaQuanda was laid off within the last month.
The manager of the storage facility tells us the two sisters came to Dr. Murray's unit at 9:22 AM Los Angeles time the day Jackson died and picked up 3 - 5 boxes, in addition to other items they carried out by hand. The manager says she personally spoke with both sisters at the facility.
But Wednesday -- outside Dr. Murray's Houston office -- LaQuanda told us she stayed in the office the day Jackson died and did not go to the storage facility. She says her sister went and retrieved one bio-hazardous box -- filled with used needles. She says Dr. Murray did not call and direct either of them to go to the storage facility. As for why they would pick up a box of used needles and take it back to the office, LaQuanda says they were just moving things around in the office.
LaQuisha told a totally different story. She says the only thing she picked up was a chair. She also says Dr. Murray did not direct her to go to the facility. As for why she went, she said "I always go."
They also don't believe Dr. Murray administered a fatal dose of Propofol to Jackson.

We've learned the two women who went to a Houston storage facility the day Michael Jackson died and removed boxes had rented the facility just months earlier, in the name of their employer -- Dr. Conrad Murray.
The owners of the facility say the two women filled out a contract on April 1, 2009. They rented a unit in the name of Dr. Conrad Murray's medical practice. Dr. Murray's credit card was used to pay the rent for the unit.
The unit contained boxes, furniture and other items. The two women arrived at 9:22 AM Los Angeles time -- 3 hours before the 911 call from Jackson's home.
The women took 3 - 5 boxes though we do not know what was inside.
The facility has a surveillance camera, but it was broken that day.

Somebody get McKenzie, Brackman, Chaney and Kuzak on the phone -- Corbin Bernsen is being sued.
According to a lawsuit filed in L.A. Superior Court, Bernsen signed a lease on a storage unit in Van Nuys, Calif. back in April 2000 for $900/month. The storage company claims he vacated the unit on January 31, 2009, but hadn't paid rent since January 2004. Sum of unpaid rent -- $55,800.
Now get this -- the storage unit company claims Bernsen rented another storage unit in February 1999 for $860/month, which he vacated in February 2009. According to the company, Bernsen hadn't paid rent on that unit since January 2003. Sum of unpaid rent -- $66,600.
Corbin's people tell TMZ they have been in a long-standing dispute with the storage company. His camp feels they haven't held up certain aspects of the lease agreement.
They are seeking the unpaid rent, plus interest and late charges, on both units.

If Paris Hilton has learned anything in her time as the first lady of the Hollywood club scene, it's that you need to make sure your storage space is paid for every month.
As TMZ first reported, the Hiltons hired a small moving company to store Paris' belongings at a Los Angeles facility. The company did not pay the the full storage bill and now an eBay seller has emerged with what they claim to be items from the unit auctioned off earlier this year. The auction contains a treasure trove of signature pieces including chokers, tiaras, earrings and a myriad of other costume jewelry once owned by Hilton.
The seller assures would-be buyers that the items are genuine and that you may contact him or her and their attorney is ready to answer questions. With the starting bids below $20, we wonder if Paris might try and snatch up some deals for herself.
