20 bottles plus put in the one marked vitamin c when he travelled. Let that sink in

But they did not say they found any of the stuff in his medicial test from the before. The autopsy report had these drugs in his system

diazepam, lidocaine and hydrocodone acids in his body. The diazepam is the anti-seizure meds,

lidocaine were found in the fake pills along with the fentenyl.

and hydrocodone - we still do not too much about but maybe some of it was in the Watson 360 pills since they were labled as such.

Let it sink in that they did not say anything about a whole bunch of other drugs and no long term use of Fentanyl.

what are the most likely reasons to need hydrocondone & acedemedfine? What are they mainly prescribed for?

Pain killer and aspirian

Okay, the Strib says.....

Sources with knowledge of the investigation have said that autopsy results also revealed the presence of lidocaine, alprazolam and Percocet.



And the Ap says.....

The autopsy report also shows Prince had diazepam, lidocaine and hydrocodone acids in his body, the official said. Diazepam is an anti-anxiety pill sold as Valium. It's a sedative and can also be used to control seizures, which Prince suffered from as a child. Lidocaine is a local anesthetic.



Alprazolam is Xanax and Diazepam is Valium.......which was it?

Yes, I do think those are test the doctor order. I am thinking a full test of bloodwork. I still think he was sick with something since the doctor came to him with the test results and maybe that is the reason he was staring to gobbled these pills but they were mis-labled and they are not saying if the other pills were in his system. His bodyguard did say he never saw anything in his bag but he sent that bobyguard a way and was only with Kirk on that trip to Atlanta.

Don't forget also that he had the Narcon shots prior to his tests with Dr S - they would have cleared his system of any opiates / fentanyl - so it is possible he'd taken them before but had his system cleared of them just in time for the bloodwork.

Does not appear that the investigators think that and once again I do not believe he would have been able to hide Fentanyl use from everyone he encountered.

So do I. The fact that he still had the woolen cap on suggests that he had not taken his street clothes off yet. Nobody in distress is going to say, "oops, I forgot my cap" and then run right past a phone to the elevator. He passed that night, never knowing that he'd taken fentanyl IMO.

Years ago, one of my patients had a phone in the elevator of their mansion. Is that normal? Then did P's elevator have a phone?

In our jurisdiction a business must have emergency equipment in an elevator, i.e., phone and alarm button, per the fire dept.

I am not sure about private residences, but since PP was a commercial establishment as well I can't fathom a phone not being in there. It's not like he couldn't afford it.

Strange indeed.

No not really. I think most people know what a vitamin looks like He could not have been doing any of this stuff for a long time.

Jeanette was only interesting to me because she represented the idea that Prince could very well associate with a vast number of people outside of his known click. These articles keep saying the authorities don't know where he got these pills, meaning they've talked to everyone that Prince supposedly knew. This hurts so badly. I'm believing he was trying to accomplish something and was willing to do it by any means necessary and probably kept those closest to him in the dark. I seriously wish I knew where he was trying to go, but unfortunately his the only one that knew that.

Have they spoken to everyone though because I really wonder if they've had conversations with Van, Damaris, Funkenberry etc. I would love to know the answer to that.

If you believe his death was not an accident, it's all part of the set up by whoever did this to him imo, make him look like a junky, make him look like he was hiding something. These bottles were probably tampered with after he died.

I wouldn't be surprised if he needed anti-anxiety meds to cope with the stress of concealing what he was doing...Poor lamb. It wouldn't make him a hypocrite; just someone under huge amounts of self-inflicted pressure to keep on performing; keep on living - and yet they did the opposite.

what you say could be true for sure. but I know also that chronic pain will *cause* anxiety...its just how the body reacts to continual pain. so, many doctors will prescribe chronic pain sufferers some kind of anti-anxiety med (or even antidepressants) because it can help with pain control as well as help the patient relax and/or sleep better (which in turn,can help a patient better cope with chronic pain). some doctors will prescribe the anti anxiety med as more OF a sleep aid than moreso for anxiety and Prince was well known to have trouble sleeping. so there are a few different possibilities why he might have been taking anti anxiety medication.

The pills in vitamin bottles or aspirin bottles isn't a big deal to me, especially for someone who travels a lot. I take 9 pills daily for ulcerative colitis plus a vitamin. I also frequently take advil for joint and have a hydrocodone presciption for joint pain as well (lots of ankle/foot injuries from sports). I frequently travel for work. When I pack my bags, I put all of those pills in the same bottle for convenience and to travel lighter. So, again, that is not a red flag at all.

I do this to save room when I travel, too.

I take sleeping pills and I have slipped a few in an bottle if I am going to be away for a day or two.

Just do not want to take a chance of losing the whole bottle and going thru all kinds of crap to get them refilled early. Like I said the mention the rest of the autosy and they do not mention anything beyond the seizure, licodine and hydrocodone and of course the fentanyl. This is the media they would gladly print as much as they could find out.

The thing that is standing out here is the fact that this is just now leaking.

The CNN article was after the house was swept by DEA.

The "person" with the perscription left at PP would have been interviewed by law enforcement by now how old are the meds?

Someone leaving a bottle of pills does not mean that Prince used them.

Yes, all of that is true...Like you, I've been there...I'm just trying to consider all possibilities. I should think he was under a lot of stress for various reasons: pain, pressure, sleeplessness, attempted withdrawal - all sorts.

I've been knows to throw pain meds in my asprin bottle to travel when I didn't want to bring the whole shebang along. I've thrown them in my makeup bag loose too.

What is wierd is that this stuff was lying around in the open . The serch did not take place for a least a week or two after he died. Who had access to Paisley Park prior to the serch warrent and don't you think his family would have gone up to his living quarters. I am not saying to cover up anything but I am sorry I know on an emotional level you do not want the police to find anything embarrassing and you want to make sure they do not plant anything by checking it out for yourself first. I had a relative who complained of chest pain. I called 911 quized hin about what they had been taking they said nothing but I checked their pockets and belongings to be sure. They had noting and it was just due to the flu but I was not going to be in a home with illegal drugs.

I'm only on page 8 of this thread, but I'm really upset. If I didn't avoid swearing on the internet, that's all this post would be. I really want this to go away... I was happier with what I'd made up after the information we already had. I really didn't need this to stir things up again.

I just read Tavis Smiley's last days of Michael Jackson book... I'm starting to thing this is going to turn out to be just as bad, if not worse. I hate that feeling.

What do you mean - 'newbies' here have been making fun of Prince dying or fans mourning? Must've missed that, but then I don't read everything. I know the org is very negative but didn't think it was that bad. From what I've seen & in my own experience the 'newbies' who joined post April did so because they were grieving & wanted to be around like minded people. Can't say the same for the 'old' fans who were hating on Prince constantly before he died. Shame it took his death for some to appreciate him. Anyway no one should be making fun of this situation- we're all in the same boat.

This newbie fully agrees too.

It would explain why nobody's talking, because of the on going criminal investigation. I have no idea who the DEA would choose to talk to but in 16 weeks I'm sure they've had time to talk to a large number of people.

Adrian is sort of talking.....

Adrian Crutchfield ‏@GOODSAX 13m13 minutes ago

I can't anymore. This is too depressing. Already seen shit talk about him online, thanks to the AP article his whole history is being explained away as "no wonder he could this that & the other" by sheeple dickheads who have no clue.

This is not Prince.
