Nobody reads the NPG articles... it was on this very site...

Here's the link again. (Read the last paragraph).

https://www.forbes.com/si...d8d2c6f5aa

So he spoke to a former manger. And he doesn’t say what “it” is, so people are assuming he meant addiction.

Exactly and Morris was not working for Prince or around to know what he looked like.

Morris is talking about both incidents. They asked him about how he felt about Prince's death. My interpretation is that he thought something was up due to P's appearance but didn't come up (but may have made inquiries). Then the Moline incident occurred and he talked to P's manager, at that point,making his statement that they need to get a handle on the situation. I am not sure how much he knew about P's drug problem but I think he knew things were problematic especially after Moline. Maybe, he thought they had a handle on it because KJ told him about the pain/drug treatment folks coming. When Prince died, he was 'inconsolable'because he never came up to Paisley that week even though he apparently thought he probably should.. He may not have understood how bad things were. LIke I said, I don't think anyone other than KJ or Meron knew that Prince had lethal pills in his possession. Pill poppers (who have a dependency due to pain issues) don't usually kick off due to a pill that would kill a whale and certainly not that quickly after a near death experience.



More likely people speculate too much. We don’t know exactly what Morris meant. And we certainly don’t know what, if anything, Morris or other members of NPG have discussed with Kirk. All we know from that Forbes article is Morris spoke to a former Prince manager.

I am a big fan of NPG. I am glad all of them including Kirk are jamming together. We all miss Prince and Kirky J drumming or not will never bring Prince back.

all prince's managers are FORMER managers now. Are you implying that that manager was fired within the last week of Prince's life. I just assumed the manager was KJ. He could mean tour manager. Don't know.

Enjoy but watch who you stand for. We had people championing Londell about six months ago and look how that worked out.

Why are so many people ready to throw Kirk in jail?

You have no clue what his role is in Ps death.

Its all speculation.

Why would Kirk take P to his own doctor to get pain meds if Kirk was able to

purchase a huge amount of illegal opiates for P?

I wouldnt want any of y'all on my jury.

I agree and I don't support Kirk and I side eye him; but honestly side eye almost ALL of the people around Prince then even Judith H. I find both Judith and Kirk shadey and suspect but his drumming for NPG does not bother me; he is doing a gig, eventually it will all catch up to them.

Londell needs to go away and stop all his shenanigans

Why were pain pills written in Kirk's name by the same Doctor that Prince was seeing for hip pain?

Why did the police catch him in lies and why do the police comment on his bizzare ignorance to what was going on with P's health?

They do not believe him and most of us are going to continue to give him the side eye.

It means we can read and it is very clear that the police have their doubts about his statements.

Stop asking people to pretend that what is in the search warrants are not there.

I wouldn't go see NPG..IMHO because he lied to the police,obviously knew for years that Purple Yoda needed help and waited until the plane incident to try to get him help..If he was the one that tried to that is..

Who here was championing Londell? Maybe some weren’t/aren’t as negatively obsessed with him as others were/are but that doesn’t mean they were supporting him. Quit with the hyperbole and exaggeration.

Agreed. If there was something he could be or should be arrested for, it would have happened. The fact that he has not been and has been allowed to leave the country says a lot.

And yet he’s been charged with nothing and is free to leave the country. No way it would take this long for him to be charged with something (or forbidden from leaving the country) if it was all plain to see from the search warrants.

Just because someone lies or changes their story doesn't necessarily mean they have committed a crime; but they might have something to hide. His behavior is shady, imo.

According to an expert on these kinds investigaters, often police don't want to arrest the small fish because they are really after the big fish. Arresting the small fish means you can't monitor them or use them anymore to catch the big fish. They were more interested in the ones who made the illegal pills than the one who procured them.

The people who make these illegal drugs and the people who buy them are both to blame.

The authorities may just be biding their time until they have more information. Just because an arrest hasn't been made does not mean everyone is off the hook, just yet.....

But we don’t know if anyone is on the hook. As far as I’m aware no suspects have been named or even alleged. Again if KJ was a suspect would he be involved with PP and performing with the NPG? This is why I go back to there’s so much we don’t know and just pouring over search warrants doesn’t make someone an expert.

KJ is keeping quiet. But, you would think that someone who was so close to Prince for what, 30+ years, would have a lot to say? Heck, that is a lot of info to keep up in that "vault" head of his, LOL lol

Please go and read the search warrants. The police make it very clear that he was lying and being evasive. You can have a high school reading level and figure out what they are driving at.

The case is not closed and the last statment by the police at the six month mark was concerning keeping the warrants sealed because of suspected persons. They even mentioned underworld ties.

They suspect someone they may not have enought to make an arrest or go to court with. Law enforcement is not going to arrest anyone if they do not have a solid case.

We know that Prince did not make those pills in the bottom of Paisely Park they came from somewhere and I already put up the case in Oregon that shows that a lot of these pills are manufactured right in America and it is not that difficult to track down. I think this case was botched and not taken seriously until they found out how much was in his system and that he did not have any in his system from previous test. Once they found that out the DEA was brought in which too me was too late.
