Do these pictures prove Michael Jackson took drugs?
July 16th, 2009 by Tallulah Smith
Bruises, needle marks and a gruesome black wound can be seen in the previously unseen images which were broadcast to millions on ABC. They had been released by the singer’s father Joe to show his son had vitiligo, the skin-whitening disease, which Jackson had always claimed he’d had. The black wound appears to have been caused where an intravenous line, fed into his leg, was removed and fluids dripped into his lower leg. Normally, IV tubes go into the arms. Marc Schaffel, a long-time adviser to Jackson, said the star was dangerously addicted to the painkiller Demerol, as well as to a cocktail of other opioid drugs, such as Oxycontin. “It’s Michael who wanted the drugs — Michael who was doing it. Nobody could stop Michael except Michael himself,” Schaffel said. “If, in fact, the family was able to spend time with him over the last couple years, they would know he was on drugs.”
