Former Employees Reveal Jackson's Excessive Drug Use
(07/10/09 9:00 AM)
LOS ANGELES, California (X17online) - More details about Michael Jackson's drug habits are beginning to emerge, as former employees reveal what they saw.
CNN obtained a confidential document from 2004 stating that Jackson frequently asked his employees to get the prescription meds under their names, and that he was taking as many as 40 Xanax pills a night.
The document came from the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department, and it contains confidential interviews with two of Jackson's former security guards, which were used in preparation for the King of Pop's child molestation trial in 2005.
One security guard told the authorities that he expressed his concern about Jackson's use of 10-plus Xanax pills a night to another staffer.
According to the document, the second staffer replied that Jackson "was doing better because he was down from 30 to 40 Xanax pills a night."
According to the document, the guard who provided the bulk of the information quit his job after Jackson "fell on his face" in a hotel room and hurt himself.
The employee told Jackson he was not comfortable getting prescriptions for him and left, and two of the guards confirmed that they (along with 2 other employees) would get prescriptions for Jackson under their names.

It would seem that some folks think he did this and that but what really counts is what he didn't do. I strongly think he did nothing but was in the wrong place at the wrong time. As for drug use...well most superstars use drugs to keep themselves up to meeting what the fans want. It certainly isn't right but let's face the truth it is all fan driven and sooner or later someone is going to become addicted to certain drugs. The real tragedy is the children being lost without their father and now being put in the middle of all this ... well it is just wrong of all of us to continue to slam the man for something we have no proof or understanding. My heart goes out to Michael and his family but most of all his children. I lost both my parents within days of each other and I certainly can understand the pain. Michael, I hope that you sing your heart out in Heaven. You truly were an artist and a proud father.
you are always in my heart, michael!!you are the king of pop!!
M. Landrie, well said. This is a man who died and has children behind who are hurting. I loss my mother in London who died suddenly and I was twelve like Michael's son at the time. It hurt like very much. God help these reporters to have a heart and leave him and his family only. They contributed to the damage. Michael had lupus and vitiligo and he did not molest any children. I miss him.
I think he was a great performer. I think that his childhood was so bad that he tried to spend the rest of his life to relive it. Very sad. I don't think he molested any children. I think he just wanted to see children have fun and to do things he never got the chance to do. Parks and Zoos....I can't imagine his pain and fear. It's almost overwhelming. His poor babies.... God please help keep them safe and help them to always know there Daddy.
the only thing that i have to say is that he's already in heaven and that we all need to remember him by all the good he did to this world, he brought smiles, laughter and happiness to the people who were down and sad with his music and perfomance, micahel you will always be with us and in our hearts,
Let's put this into perspective. Michael was a pedophile and a drug user who caused his own death. Being accused once of child molestation could be an mistake, but three times? Get real. There had to have been some truth in those accusations. He admitted sleeping with little boys. That's not normal adult behavior.
I seriously doubt that his employees are making up stories about his drug use. When the autopsy results are made public, it will show that Michael died most likely, by his using Diprivan. He was also using 30-40 Xanax a day. Are you kidding me? How can that not be drug abuse.
Michael was a sad person and a sad little boy who was used and abused by his father. He stole our hearts when he was little, wowed some of us as a young adult, and then faded into the woodwork. Michael killed himself by abusing drugs. Regardless of how he got them or who gave them to him, he did it himself and no one is to blame for his death but Michael. My condolences to his family. May he rest in peace.
Not only was M.J. a great performer, he was a grown man willing to reach out to so many children. My children should have had a Dad like him. I still mourn for my childhood, as I grew up on Michael. My heart hurts for his family, his children, and all those who loved him.....Now I have to let my childhood go.......
Let he who is without sin throw the first stone (well something like that). I have no views as I never knew him although I wish I had. You were one in a billion. It's a shame you had to die to be at peace. Until we meet God Bless.
Michael Jackson seems to have the same trates as someone with Asperger's it is a form of Autim.

MICHAEL WAS A WONDERFUL PERSON I LOVED HIM ALOT. I GOT ALL HIS SONGS AND HE IS N HEAVEN AND I HOPE HE IS DANCING HIS HEART OUT. I HOPE SOME DAY TO SEE HIM UP THERE. IVE ALWAYS WONTED TO C HIM. I DONT CARE WHAT PEOPLE SAY BOUT HIM, HE WAS A GREAT GUY. MY HEART AND PRAYERS TO HIS FAMILY.. MICHAEL I LOVE YOU AND ALWAYS WILL.
The father I understands has been a piece of work. The only one thing that I agree with him on at this point is that (something is not right).This is really sad...and this may sound crazy, but...the reality is that what happened to Michael should not have occured. My gut feeling says someone felt backed into a corner by michaels requests...maybe got real paranoid and covered their tracks and now he is dead. When a person's system, (not the mind) is addicted to pain killers, they will say anything to get the pills or the shot, UNINTENTIONALLY!! So my question is: Whats up Doc's or to whomever was involved? Why no rehab? The conscious of that person will surface. Prisons are full of people who have tried to beat the system and you just cannot beat it. Someones going to talk!
May God Bless the Jackson family and May Michael Rest In Peace.
I can't believe you are posting this today...it was already reported, re-reported, dug over, beaten, and is now a dead horse....over 2 days ago.
Get up to date.....and move on!
I totally agree with you, M. Landrie. I really cannot understand why ignorant people continue to ridicule and say nasty things about him when he is already up there...
I remember that his songs were the soundtrack of my youth, and I loved it how he was able to have all the things I could only wish for when I was a kid -- an amusement park, a video-game arcade and a mini-zoo, all in his backyard. :)
I choose to remember him for his amazing music and big heart for charity for as long as I live. I also hope to finally meet him up there someday... You will always be in my thoughts and prayers, Michael. Rest in peace.
why did mj like caviar because it was great with little white crackers
debbie rowe thought mj was cheating on her so she off work early one day and she was right she spotted a big wheel in the drive way
well folks heres another example of the fantsy of hollywood regardless of his up bringing he chose his own demise as like elvis and john belusi chris farly anna nicole smith and all the others no matter what doctor prescribed the meds he asked for it he got it thats the power of money and fame shed no blame else where but the man himself we chose our own desinty as he did sad yes but nobody forced drugs down his throat or in his veins he acted alone no matter what kind of medical problem he had just like a child you leave the candy jar ungaurded turn your back and soon it comes up missing he was a great entertainer yes but he was a grown man to make choices some were good some were bad he was a selfish man why would he want childern when he lived that kind of life not thinking what kind of recuprussins if something were to happen to him now the kids will suffer and never have inner peace kids from two differnt sources white kids no less I say children and family services droped the ball on this one when he dangled his child over the balcony that shows the mentality of a person he was not in his right mind now his family will milk this dog and pony show as long as they can and al sharpton and jessie jackson are getting some of the blood money mj's dad what a cold hearted smuck to mention his new record label two days after his own son's death with al sharpton by his side now Im suer he's gonna explot mj's kids if he can for money after all this is said and some dr.s are gonna lose there right to practice medicene maybe be charged with manslaughter or what ever the family will bring lawsuits to as many doctors they can and then what do you have left 3 kids that dont have a father or mother debbie rowe i would'nt call her fit to be a mother by selling her kids to a self destrucive person like mj the kids will suffer the rest of there lives so let this be a lesson to all before you think about bringing a child into this world another sad story from hollywood I hope god will walk with those kids for the rest of there life and protect them and guide them to a happy life and god bless the jackson family and I wish them peace welcome to hollywood
Why do you people continue to deify a pedophile, pathetic drug addict?
who do you think you are making those accusations about michael were you there when those so called things were done
Unfortunately people have the tendency to remember what they want. Personally it was appalling to me to watch a young performer refuse to grow up. (I thought at the time MJ was using or being forced to use hormones to prevent or delay his voice and body from going through puberty and changing into adulthood. No proof, but being I was close to the same age growing up..... People and the media should remember - he was only a famous performer - loved by many and dispised by many as well. For all posters who claim 'he was a wonderful... loving....doting...father' - get a clue, you have no idea except what you read or hear discribed by his someone else. Here's what we know about MJ: Great performer; extremely wealthy (terrible with money-supposidly is broke); had lots of fans - but very few reliable, money wise friends or advisers; was a shop-a-holic; wanted privacy - but needed to be the center of attention; appeared to love being around childrem - yet was accused multiple times of child molestation; went to trial on child molestation - was found not guilty; created the highest paid child prostitude when he paid off the family rather than go to trial for a different child molestation case; slept with young children - yet was exonerated in his behavior - I've always wondered if a different 'adult' man had slept with young children if he would have had the same acceptance; was a serious drug user - most possibly 'legal prescribed' medicine - drug misuse absolutly, drug abuse certainly, drug addict - depends on your definition..... Separate the fantasy from reality - those who claim to 'love' MJ, idolized the music, the performances, but most certainly did not know him personally enough to love him.
Michael will be sadly missed by me as I grew up with him and his music. I truly loved the artistry in him and the fact he was never afraid to give to children. I think the fact is that he fell apart from the allegations made toward him. I don't believe he ever touched a child in a harming or dirty way. People make up their minds long before they know the truth in this world today. Why would he choose 2 boys from the millions that came to Neverland. It was all about money and greed. That is what killed him also. People will do just about anything or even give you anything if you have the right amount of money. I am truly saddened that a wonderful, kind, gentle, and very talented person left us because of drugs. Which he should have never came in contact with. I will miss you Michael. My heart truly aches and is very saddened. Remember people this could happen to a loved one of yours because drug abuse is getting more common everyday.
Only God knows the truth. Who are we to judge? The day will come that we all will stand before are maker.
FRIEND OF MJ PORNO PRODUCER OF GAY YOUNG BOYS F.MARK SCHAFFEL MJ HAS SOME REAL NICE FRIENDS...SEND YOUR KIDS TO HIS HOUSE FOR SLLEP OVER.
THE YOUNG BOY CALLED ,,THE ACCUSER,HIS AND MJ,S FINGER PRINTS FOUND ON BARELY LEGAL MAGAZINE,,FACTS FROM THE TRIAL
WHY! WHY! ARE CELEBRITIES ALLOWED SO MUCH SLACK LEGALLY, REGARDING PRESCRIPTION MEDS, TRIALS. WE MUST LEARN TO BE NON BIASED FOR THEIR OWN GOOD!!! PEOPLE WHO PROTECT HIM AND GIVE HIM DRUGS IN THEIR NAMES ARE ACTUALLY LIABLE FOR MICHAEL'S HEALTH. HE OBVIOUSLY HAD A DRUG ISSUE. CELEBRITY AND WEALTH SHOULD HAVE HELPED HIM NOT HAVE BEEN A LIABILITY. WE HAVE SEEN THIS WITH ANNA NICHOLE SMITH, ELVIS, ETC....OVER AND OVER THE TRAGEDY CONTINUES. WHAT A SAD REALITY.
Michael needs to be remembered for the contributions he made to the world. This man may not have been an ideal image of what we see everyday in our lives but he was a real person with feelings. When i think of how he could move and touch the hearts of so many people just by standing before a crowd it makes me sad to hear the slander from the media. The man is dead and has left kids behind to grow up without a father, doesn't that count for anything. Who really knows the truth about Michael? Actors, entertainers, athletes, and many others are targeted everyday just because of money. Everyone is out to get you when you are talented and have this so called fame but in the end we all have to go when our time is up. And guess what we cant take the money or fame with us but we do and always will leave loved ones here. So let's focus on his loved ones and how they are going to cope without him and not so much on our personal opinions on his life. Michael please rest in peace for every 1 person that has something negative to say about you, there is probably 10,000 people who didn't. You can try to talk bad on this man but the love in this country and many others will always, always, always, out shine it. Bet your paycheck on it as small as it may be.
Can't people in todays society see that M Jackson probably was a drug addict at least out of his own mouth he slept in a bed with little boys stranglers.Only god knows what more may have happened.Can't people see wrong and right anymore
It's incredible. The mushy attention given to these people like they were actually a role model for anyone. Take away his money and music and what do you have?
Another example .. Steve McNair. What a hero .. What a role model. Be Real!!!
He was shot because he was suspected of cheating on the person with whom he was cheating on his wife and childred. Some role model!
If the reports are true that Jordan Chandler has indeed admitted he lied about the molestation charges against Michael Jackson, then it’s sadly a case of far too little, far too late!
People who have never been in the limelight have got no idea how devastatingly damaging malicious rumours can be to a celebrity.
As a former child singing star in South Africa, I had the privilege of meeting Michael Jackson many years ago when I particpated in the Tokyo International Song festival and he was still with the Jackson 5.
I’ve been an admirer ever since.
Although I started singing at age 6, I quit singing in my early 20’s when I was on the brink of international stardom.
I have a tiny inkling of what it was like to never be a normal child and be a celebrity at a young age, and it sucks!!
Even though I enjoyed performing, I hated the publicity and always being in the limelight. I was never able to be a normal child or adolescent.
Even the celebrity status I experienced on that small scale (which is a millionth compared to other international stars), there were always people wanting to spread malicious stories about me.
I cannot imagine how terrible life must be as a real superstar like MJ – no wonder he became eccentric and preferred hanging out with Bubbles at Neverland!
Hell I probably would have done exactly the same if I’d chosen to pursue my singing internationally...
MJ was a good example of how some lowlife scumbags did enormous damage to his career through malicious extortion and distortion of the facts.
How sad that sensationalistic gutter journalism often gets more prominence than the facts or reputable media reports and by then, the damage is done.
I just pray that Michael Jackson's children are somehow spared the spotlight and are able to keep their sanity and lead some kind of normal life away from the paparazzi and the media madness that envelops celebrities.
Michael Jackson’s life may have ended, but his incredible talent,dancing abilities and musical genius will live on ALWAYS in my heart and in those of his millions of fans!
YOU WILL BE MISSED MICHAEL!
Leave him alone , not too sure if he is really dead, if he is alive, i am sure he is safe some where. If he is dead, than probably someone must have murdered him. He was tortured mentally every moment when he was alive. It continues even after he is dead. Some believe he hoaxed his death. This is It! When i mean this is it, it means this is it! He was very sure on that statement in his meet up with the public. If he is alive , i hope he is happy & peaceful

Michael Jackson will forever be "The King". Those of you who wish to bad mouth him will one day be judged yourselves. I love you Michael.............
mj is not in heaven he is in hell for the sins that he put onto others
What do michal jackson and kmart have in common???? they both have boy's pants 50% off
another fallen star,iwas stunned to learn of michael jacksons death,as many people were,but you can't deny that this
man was heavly burdened,sometimes people forget that he was human,he endured much ridicule from the press,
and others,just how much can one person
take.in some small way we all made fun of him,made jokes about him.the lesson in his death,is that we should learn to
love one another unconditionally.it breaks my heart everytime i people talk
about him negatively
micheal jackson can sing and dance into our hearts he will be missed;love
anthony
It is unfair to restart the meaningless blame game to the bygone superstar and it hurts to all those people who love him and who were very near and dear to him.So please can we stop it for once and forever?
WE LOVE YOU MICHAEL AND MISS YOU A LOT.
"JEALOUSY SPEAKS OUT! THEY R JUST LOSERS!!!! " WHATEVER THEY WILL KEEP SAYING WONT MAKE US FORGET "HOW GREAT U WERE AND U WILL ALWAYS BE" YOU WERE KIND & A PURE PERSON W WONDERFUL SOUL.. WE DONT NEED LOSERS TO PROVE THIS! CUZ LOSERS SPEAK BEFORE THEY THINK! REST N PEACE**
No....he is NOT GUILTY OF ANYTHING...!
he was an Angel...
Guys, wake up..!
The doctors and the ones who were around him...created his 'addiction'..it is obvious for the money...!!!!!!!!
i really don't understand this..: "I loved Michael...he was my best friend..a good human being' ..and so on...
excuse me, but when I love somebody...I force him..to cure him..from any addiction..I lock him in a hospital/ in a room...because he is the person/ my friend/ my son or brother, that I care about...and I love him...even if he will be upset on me...
But I care about this person...
THEY SHOULD TAKE CARE OF HIM...even if he was MICHAEL JACKSON..! Especially, that he was MICHAEL JACKSON..THE KING OF..MUSIC..!!!!!!
so, pay attention to all the details...to that letter from TMZ.com in which is clearly obvoius ..that the doctors were pushing him to consume thos medicines...!! Read thos lines, people...!
i am very upset about what is going on...!
i love MJ with all my heart and soul...he represent..the ART...and THE LOVE...!
he will always be in my heart..FOREVER!
I Totally agree w Donatella (from Romania)You R RIGHT 100%!
any way, Michael Jackson was A victim of society (BLACK & WHITE RACISM)and DR'S Never Cared abt him (THEY ONLY CARED ABOUT HIS MONEY)!!!
HE IS A LEGAND AND WILL ALWAYS BE!
I don't feel sorry for him at all. He knew what he was doing and even said he would end up like Elvis. Obviously didn't care that his kids could end up in the mess they have. Very talented but very stupid.
I think some of you are just sick. Michael was a lonely man, he didn't get a childhood like most of us did so he tried to get it back as an adult. I don't think he ever touched a child in a dirty way either. Funny none of his star kid friends ever accused him of anything (touching ect..) WHY? cuz they had their own money and didn't need his. These other parents probably thought it was cool at first to have their kids hang out and be friends w/ MJ and then greed and money came to mind and how to get it from MJ. I believe he settled the cases as to not make the kids go through a trial, he didn't want to hurt them. If MJ wanted to molest kids he could have had kids from 3rd world countries flown in to have his way w/. He loved kids and cared about them, he didn't hurt them. I feel sorry for MJ, he needed some real friends that didn't care about his money. The media and greedy people took his life just like Princess Diana. He never had peace on earth I hope he can find it now. I wish he was still with us, I miss him. There will never be another MJ in my life time and probably not in my kids life time. He was one of a kind and we have suffered a great loss. As far as the drugs go, if anyone has never been through opiate withdrawal, well let me say it's as close to death as you want to come. I wouldn't wish opiate withdrawal on the devil. It's easy for people to say just stop, I don't understand why they just can't stop. Go and take pain meds for a couple months and stop and you'll know why. Yes he should have been put into rehab, but no one cared enough about him to put their foot down and make him go or get clean. He had Dr.s at his beck and call, he had unlimited supply of narcotics. Most people hit bottom or get close to it before they will go to treatment, but someone w/ and endless supply and no one telling him NO, why the hell should he have gone. I blame the Dr.s that kept giving him these drugs, because they are all greedy bastards and didn't really care about him. I thought the Dr. oath was to do no harm, well they did plenty of harm, not only to MJ but to people every day w/ these pain killers. All Dr.s who perscribe these drugs should be made to go through the withdrawal of them. I bet they would be much more careful handing them out like gum and understanding of people who are dependent on them. I hope the press can leave MJ alone finally and let his kids have good memories of their dad. MJ is not here to defend himself or talk to his kids now about what they might hear from the press and it makes me sick.
The man is dead his family is greaving have some respect will you.
I miss you MJ and I believe you were a good person, with a heart bigger than most. RIP MJ
