Law enforcement sources tell us when paramedics arrived at Michael Jackson's house he was already dead ... and it took them a while to even realize the victim was the famous singer.
Our sources say when paramedics got to Jackson's home he was flatlined. There was no electrical activity in his heart and Jackson showed no sign of life.
Multiple sources say paramedics wanted to pronounce Jackson dead at the scene but Dr. Conrad Murray insisted that the singer be transported to the hospital. Dr. Murray -- as a higher medical authority than the EMTs -- had the power to overrule them.
Paramedics didn't realize for nearly 10 minutes the victim was Michael Jackson. As one emergency worker put it: "It just looked like a frail, old, sickly man."

This is a first ... a 911 call asking for an exorcism specialist. The dude who made the 911 call for "Rock of Love 2" "star" Daisy de la Hoya said Daisy was making all sorts of Linda Blair moves. The fire department listed the call as "possible overdose," which Daisy later denied.

British singer James Blunt and palm-gripping tsunami-survivor supermodel girlfriend Petra Nemcova ran over the leg of an autograph seeker on Friday night in Los Angeles according to witnesses. There's a keepsake from a star encounter!
The oblivious crooner reportedly didn't stop to check on the injured fan. It's unclear if Blunt and Pet had any idea what had happened.
Paramedics were called to the scene and the injured man was rolled away on a gurney, while police made a report. Blunt's rep says, "He was overhelmed by the swarm of paparazzi and was truly not aware of what happened. We're very sorry for what happened, and we're looking into the matter."
