Paramedic: Jackson looked like "a hospice patient"

We could be in for some startling, vivid testimony this afternoon, if the pre-trial hearings are any indication. The paramedics who treated Michael Jackson are now taking the stand. At pre-trial hearings in January, they testified that Jackson looked like a "hospice patient" by the time they arrived at his home. Paramedic Richard Senneff said the pop star's skin had gone cold, his eyes were dry and his pupils were dilated when they first found him at his California home. Things could get really interesting when we hear testimony about what Dr. Conrad Murray said and did at this crucial time. During the hearing, Senneff implied Murray was evasive and misled paramedics about what drugs were currently in Jackson's system. Murray told them Jackson was only suffering from dehydration, although he acknowledged that the star had taken lorazepam, to help him go to sleep. Murray never mentioned propofol. Jackson had already flatlined while in his bedroom, Senneff said. He testified that Murray's story "didn't add up." Paramedic Martin Blount is also expected to testify and provide key details into Dr. Conrad Murray's behavior while Jackson was being treated. Blount testified earlier he saw needles and three bottles of the anesthetic lidocaine in the room.
