LOVE DRUG Michael Jackson called deadly painkiller that killed him his ‘milk’ because he loved it so much as detectives reveal syringes and drugs strewn across his bedroom

MICHAEL Jackson relied so heavily on the drug that eventually killed him that he called it his milk, LA cops reveal after entering his chaotic drugs-strewn bedroom hours after he died.

Detectives who led the probe into his sudden death, have spoken about entering a room scattered with syringes and drugs the day Jacko’s lifeless body was found.

On June 25, 2009, Jacko died of acute propofol and benzodiazepine intoxication at his home on North Carolwood Drive in Holmby Hills, Los Angeles.

In the years before Michael died he became increasingly addicted to propofol, a hospital-grade anaesthetic administered either by intravenous drip or injection.

The pop star hired an array of personal physicians to administer the drug in order to sleep and referred to it as his “milk” because of it’s milky appearance.

Now in a new documentary called Killing Michael Jackson  – to be aired on Quest Red at 10pm on Saturday – the three detectives who led his death probe have broken their silence.

Orlando Martinez, Dan Myers and Scott Smith have finally told of what they found inside the room where the pop star spent his final painful hours.

‘MAKESHIFT MEDICAL SUITE’

The documentary shows photographs from inside Jackson’s home treatment room, bedroom and of Dr Murray’s drug-filled medical bag.

The detectives recall finding Jackson’s makeshift medical room scattered with medicines.

Entering the room where Dr Murray treated Jackson, Martinez describes the eerie surroundings: “In the room where he was being treated, it did not seem like a room fit for any type of medical treatment.

“I mean, it was like a home, makeshift medical suite. It was just bare bones.”

Detective Scott Smith added: “I just remember going in there and there was an IV stand, a saline bag and just various medications strewn about.”

The detectives also describe discovering Dr Murray’s medical bag hidden in the property, which first arose their suspicions of foul play.

Martinez added: “We found a bunch more medicines that were used, like propofol.”

It was like a home, makeshift medical suite. It was just bare bones.”

He continued: “We found all the waste, all the trash. The needles, the empty bottles, the stuff that, when we went into the room, should have been laying there.

“So we knew that sometime during this medical emergency, Dr Murray had stopped either giving CPR or had waited to give CPR and cleaned up everything.”

Myers then revealed: “Within 48 hours, it appeared that it was a suspicious death in that there was something more than just an overdose.”

CONVICTED

In days after his death, Michael’s personal doctor Conrad Murray claimed he found Jackson not breathing and with a weak pulse and administered CPR to no avail.

However, Murray was convicted of the involuntary manslaughter over Jackson’s drug death in 2011 and eventually served two years in prison.

During Murray’s trial the prosecution team claimed he was an incompetent physician who used an anaesthetic called Propofol without the proper safeguards.

The defence said Jackson caused his own death by taking a drug overdose, including Propofol, after Murray left his bedroom on the day of his death.

Propofol is an extremely powerful drug and is rarely used outside hospitals and clinics, unless under the direct supervision of a medical expert.

Now, almost 10 years after his sudden death, Jacko’s musical legacy as the King of Pop has become as notorious as his eccentric antics and obsession with young boys.

Michael’s legacy has come under fresh scrutiny in a recently aired explosive documentary, detailing the accounts of two men who allege the star abused them as children.
