Hey folks... I haven't posted much lately. I'm still going through my own "process". He influenced me in countless ways.

I just want all of you to think about what it means that he died in Minnesota, at Paisley Park. We need to be very thankful toward the state of Minnesota for handling this as professionally as they have.

If Prince died in L.A., we would have leaked death scene photos, autopsy photos, etc.

I believe that they really are "leaving no stone unturned" in the investigation, and I also believe they have MUCH respect for Prince.

I agree.

Yep. I was very proud when the sherrif told off the media by saying "To you he's a celebrity. To us he was a neighbor and member of the community. And we're going to give him the respect and dignity he deserves."

You know, I hadn't considered what would this have been like if this had of happened while he was out on the road. *shudder*

Thanks for small blessings, I suppose.

I agree with this 100%.

lwr001 said: This is a bit confusing if he had percs AND Suboxone in his system already..Why would Kornfeld fly across the country with Suboxone on an 'life saving mission'and have a local doctor administer it, if Prince already had some? To me that makes little sense. Unless Kornfeld was there to try n talk to Prince and get him to come back to Cali for treatment. And the other doctor had already prescribed Suboxone(or got it for him in another way) to Prince. Its never been made public what those scripts were that the doc prescribed and the cops found, besides painkillers..Maybe the big issue here is that he was somehow taking Suboxone illegally and he needed to get somewhere, like another state where it was easier to legally obtain plus high quality treatment for dependency, pain management and addiction....

Maybe Kornfeld arrived in MN earlier than stated and actually visited PP, in secret, in the early hours of the morning, gave Prince the meds and then went off to shower and have breakfast at his hotel where he was later picked up by the PP staff. Sworn to secrecy by Prince, he never said a word to the PP staff of his earlier visit. And then they found Prince dead.... Time to call in the lawyer!

I read somewhere that some of Prince's staff picked up Kornfeld from the airport then dropped him off at a hotel and picked him up again and brought him to Paisley Park.

Yes, that's what his attorney reported during the press conference. It would be a self-destructive act for either to lie to the press about staff doing the airport pickup after all involved had already been questioned by law enforcement.

Also recall Kornfeld did not seem to have the address to Paisley Park for the 911 operator.

Why was Kornfeld the person who called 911? If he didn't have the address to PP, he probably didn't know his way around inside so someone would have been escorting him. Why didn't he ask someone what the address was (something like that would have been heard on on the 911 report).

Apparently two staff members were with him but were too distressed to call 911. I was pretty distressed when I found out and I didn't even know the guy. Can you imagine seeing that elevator open and discovering his body just slumped there? Kornfeld probably called 911 before they would have been able to get their phones out of their pockets/bags/whatever. I would wager that the 911 call happened pretty quickly.

I've said the same over and over.

As I stated on another thread, (maybe this one too, who knows at this point), this isn't LAPD or NYPD. I felt a little reassurance from the Sheriff's press conference that they will do their very best for Prince. I am glad that their priority is to take their time and get it right.

The Sheriff also said three times that they will do all they can to protect Prince's privacy and dignity as much as possible in the process...I'm grateful for that too.

Me too. They sure are taking their time. I can't believe he'll be gone for a month on Saturday.

time has flown by, but sadly not my grief.

I was just thinking about this today. I can't believe it will be a month in a few days. Life is still going on to the outside world. I have nothing but the music and grief. I believe will they will always be on adversarial terms. Time has stood still for me. I miss Prince greatly. I anticipate with all of you the outcome of this investigation. The only thing that gives me comfort is knowing if Prince was in any kind of pain - the pain is over now

If his death results in carelessness from a doctor, I am going to be SO pissed.

Well said.

It feels like the universe is broken or something but our love wil endure no matter what.

The waiting is so hard and our hearts remain heavy, but we want them to do the best that they can for our Prince under the circumstances.

When will this thread actually be about autopsy/investigation updates?

We're over 40 pages and its all just speculations.

The speculation wouldn't be as bad if the speculators didn't state their opinions as fact when we still have no official reports. They accuse everybody who is waiting instead of speculating of being in denial.

Not to mention people getting their feelings hurt because we're not marveling at their brilliant powers of deductive reasoning.

people waiting intently for these autopsy reports are like characters in the old Charlie Brown Halloween cartoon, waiting for the Great Pumpkin...waiting for something that, when it comes (if it ever does), its all lies...happens with all these icon deaths...same shit, different diaper...

Nothing to do with intently....the word is patiently.

Speculation is one thing but you have to realize that whatever your speculation is, we read it the first hundred times it was posted.

Furthermore, why anyone would automatically assume the report is going to be lies is very odd. As though anyting said here by know-it-alls is going to be more credible?

Thanks for the laugh.

Couldn't agree more.

Case in point, RJOrion's reply is exactly the problem. Implying that waiting for the report makes us somehow feeble minded or something?

I think he meant there will always be suspicions when it comes to celebrity deaths.. Sam Cooke, Marilyn, MJ, etc

And if he'd said that then it would be fine. Instead he chose to compare people to Charlie Brown characters though.

exactly...i never mentioned anyones' name or referred to any specific commenter...im actually one of the aforementioned "people", too...just expressing my frustration at history repeating itself...no need to catch feelings for feeling like Linus or Lucy...

No need for this comment that had nothing to do with your frustration either....

New article on Kirk Johnson mentions Prince.org https://www.yahoo.com/new...16394.html

we're (McD's) a citeable news source cool, cool

yeah I posted several articles in another thread how his inner circle are keeping mum.

They most likely knew and feel they are going to be blamed because they didn't get him to emergency sooner. Who took Prince on all of his Walgreen runs?

The autopsy will reveal what he died from, and that is where it will get dicey. If it is due to overdose of Percocet and a combination of dehydration, and lack of eating, the people around him will be questioned. That is probably why they are laying low.

When will celebrities ever learn, the people around you are critical. Have smart people around you, not just "YES" people who want to keep their paycheck. Now they will all be losing their paychecks, unless the family keeps them around.

You could be right about that,
