I agree with you CLOVER and DIBS. You can look at this from so many different angles. The trick is

being able to discuss it and be able to see other's points of view. After all we all are looking for the

same thing. Truth. And none of us have any set in stone proof of anything. We are here discussing

and not beating each other up. LOL bitchfight I don't know you personally but I respect you

greatly and your opinions matter to me. highfive I'm glad all yall and me are purple fam. biggrin

.

Zena: Awww, that was so sweet. Big hugs, and to you too, Dibs! grouphug

.

I'm glad there are a few of us who are mature enough to respect each other's opinions and we can all get along, which is what Prince would want. biggrin

.

Like you said, Zena; we are all here for the same thing; the truth. biggrin


Well, the thing is, there will always be ideas, theories, viewpoints about all aspects of life: I don't necessarily agree with them all. But I'm not going to be rude to the people expressing them. So long as people aren't being personally offensive to me, I'll just leave them to it! I can't understand the reasoning behind being venomous, supercilious, and unpleasant...What does it achieve?

There was nothing shady going on. Do any of you have any idea how stressful and frightening it is when you get to that level of desperation over the welfare of a loved one in the midst of an addiction? There are no easy answers. But you can't sit by any longer and watch the downward spiral so you take a huge risk by getting others involved. Professionals. Idk if Dr kornfeld is good at what he does or not, but that's who was obviously recommended. MN has treatment centers, some very well regarded and I wish prince and his people would have felt comfortable seeking help from them. I'm guessing privacy issues got in the way of that. I think his people were trying the best they could, the best any of us could, under the circumstsnces. And I'm sure they have been beating themselves up ever since about what they should have, or could have, done differently to save him. Andrew kornfeld was picked up from the airport after taking a red eye from the west coast and left at his hotel to freshen up. I don't believe it was reported that he went to sleep. And if I recall he made his way to PP alone and when no one answered the phone or the door at PP he contacted the asst and kirk who came to let him in. As far as the security cam eras they could have been off for a number of reasons. PP wasn't a prison. There was not a lot of Prince related activity around PP for some time. It's normally quiet there unless he would throw a random party at night. Back in the day PP was more hustling and bustling on a regular basis but not recently. Maybe the cameras were outdated. Maybe they only turned them on when he opened the place up to the public. Idk but I don't find it particularly strange. The entire facility is gated and locked. And it sits at a fairly busy intersection so it would be noticeable if there were any suspicious activity around the area. It's also patrolled by the county sheriff's deputies as well as city police officers. People are reading way too much into things that are insignificant then trying to make them significsnt.I wish he was still here too. It was a terrible tragedy that shouldn't have happened. It's hard to accept that he's gone. None of these crazy theories or conspiracies is going to bring him back. It's not helping people to heal and move on that's for sure.


THIS. Exactly, Sonshine, exactly.
Btw, how did the content of the "curiosities" thread and the "death" thread get so reversed? Did the Queen order this as a means of muddying the waters?

Yeah, I give up. Poor prince. I'm sure he would rather his fans were discussing his music and his accomplishments and not the sensitive issues surrounding his death. Like I said when somee of the folks here find themselves in the shoes of people closest to Prince then maybe they will understand how nothing and everything is normal in these situations. They have no right to judge the actions of any of the people involved without being there and without first hand knowledge of the situation. Speculate all you want or move on. It's your choice. I'm trying to move forwsrd. Good luck to all of you.

I have no problem agreeing to disagree. All of us are speculating, as we don't have all the facts, yet. If people don't like the thread topic, they shouldn't be here. Simple as that.

.

Some people are very sensitive to discussing Prince's death. I understand that. However, I think it's only human nature to what to know what happened, and it's all been a healing process for most of us, and I have met some very fine people here as well. We are all grieving and trying to cope with losing Prince.

.

Sonshine: Did you see/read my post #345 (response to you)?

I hope we get answers as to why he looked so sick in his last days. Speculating can be so painful.

This is the first I've heard of this. If Andrew didn't go to the Hotel to sleep, then what would be the purpose of getting a hotel room?


.


Is that a fact that Andrew went to PP on his own, or are you speculating?


.


So, you are saying that Andrew had Kirks personal phone number and called him to meet him at PP?






I suppose he got the room to have a place to freshen up and collect himself. This is just what I'm assuming. I'm still not sure now about how he got to PP because I'm almost certain It was reported he arrived alone. And yes he must have had kirk and the asst numbers but that makes sense. I'm sure they were communicating over the prior day. Dr kornfeld dis also arrange for a local doctor to see prince with Andrew that morning. So these people aren't as reckless as some believe. I'll try to find the srticle or statement from police when I have more time later.

Isn't funny how people will complain about a thread topic, but yet they are in here making comments about it? eek

.

Also, I find it interesting how when you question someone's comments, they don't want to respond. It's like a one-sided conversation, and their opinion only matters. Okay. lol

Later!!

SONSHINE: I am going to share this only because some think that no one could possibly have any idea what those around Prince might have been going through. This is painful but I will share.

I had a boss that was like my son. I loved him dearly. He was addicted to prescription drugs. In his

eyes, he was safe and not addicted because a Dr. prescribed them for him. The Dr. prescribed 180

of these pills at a time. Plus anything else you might want, all you had to do was tell him and he

would write it. There also was 2 surgeons in my bosses's family and that didn't help matters. For 5

years I battled his drug problem. Cleaning him up when he puked everywhere, hiding car

keys, throwing away prescriptions when I found them. (He had them hid everywhere) He would

would pass out and I would take him home and keep watch over him until he would finaly wake up.

I never left him alone. If he didn't show up for work I was scared to death going over to find him

and see if he was ok... alive. His mother came to me and asked me to help her plan an intervention.

We failed at trying to get him to go and get help. A few months later he had a car accident and he

had a choice of jail or 90 day rehab. He went to rehab of course. It did no good. He was back at it

within days of getting out. There were many times that he was so messed up and I refused to leave

him and he was furious. I simply handed him the phone and told him to call the police and have me

removed, then I could tell them that he was a danger to himself and others. Needless to say, I won

those battles. The end for me came when I threw away every last stash he had. He was livid and

fired me. 3 weeks later, he took his pills, drank a good bit of wine, and got into a hot tub. 12 years

ago on Christmas Eve, my boss died of a drug overdose. He was 33 years old. A good looking,

loving, funny, smart, man. I can only imagine how the people that truly love Prince feel. I know how

I feel and it's been 12 long years. You never know the trials and pain that a person on the other

side of screen has had in their lives. Plese be kind because you never know.

Okay, so that was your assumption. I understand. Thanks! biggrin

You and I feel differently regarding the supposed "intervention" (The Kornfelds) and that's totally okay with me. I respect your opinion. biggrin

Zena: I'm so sorry for your loss and going through something so horrific like that. I also lost a former boss, and he was the best boss I ever had; the most kind and giving person, and he was hit by a 80-something year-old woman who was DRUNK, and he died a few days later in the hospital from injuries he sustained and left behind 3-children and a wife who was a cancer survivor, but only a few months later, his widowed wife sucummed to cancer. Talk about hearbreaking!!

.

I just wanted to add what you were saying to Sonshine. MANY of us have suffered great losses. As you know, I lost my Mom and my husband lost his own Father when he was only 19-years old. I have endured a lot of loss in my life, so I know what I feels like to grieve for a loved one.

.

Peace & Love!

Which is exactly my point. Many of us know about drug addiction and loss. Many of us know about terminal illness and loss. To say that no one can possibly begin to know how P's family or the inner circle feels is just wrong. Many of us have a very good idea.

Of course people have ideas of what he was going thru rather it was pill problems or illness.

Sadly, I don't think some people on here really know at all and perhaps never experienced the pain of loss or experienced the pain of seeing a loved one succumb to addiction.

.

I have seen both.

.

Many people don't want to discuss the death of Prince because it's too senstive, and that's okay -- but one day, we all will have to live through it and deal with it, unfortunately.

.

Personally speaking, what I've been through in my own personal life, I would not wish on anyone.

.

What Prince went through in his life, I would not wish on anyone. To think of him being in constant pain, and there is no relief, and he succumbs to illegal pain pills......it's all too sad.

.

Sorry, just speaking from my own personal standpoint.

I wouldn't have a problem with it IF he in fact had an addiction. But the reason I don't believe it is because of Prince himself disclaiming drug use for all these years. Totally against it. There has not been one associate to say that P had a drug problem, in fact it is the complete opposite. Not Even TN has said such a thing. No news reports or any other source stating that P had anything to do with drug use in all these years. April is when all the drug crap started, when P could no longer defend himself. (And the Enquirer printed their crap) There are folks that believe all the news sources. The stories change too much, the stories don't test well for truth, and even though false statements are made there are no retractions. So I guess all get a free pass for not telling the truth. There are huge holes in this case. The only thing I think I know is that Prince has passed. There is an Official Media Release from the ME. I just don't understand the "self administered accidental" how did the ME come to that conclusion? And Fentanyl? None in his system 24 hours prior, and not a long time user?

[Edited 10/30/16 9:34am]


Don't forget though, Zena - we do have a recorded conversation with Tavis Smiley (just by way of an example) who suggested that Prince had been taking medication for pain for quite some time - nothing 'heavy' or 'unusual' (or illegal) but there was a history there, albeit a legitimate one.

.

I know we're coming full circle again - but all I can assume (if we go with the long-term pain med. narrative) is that for some reason, P was no longer able to access the ones he had routinely used:
.

1) Perhaps he himself had noticed that he was having to use more of them / they weren't working as well as they used to work - and so he and his doctor decided he needed to try to withdraw from them (which might have been why he was seeing Dr S, and had an appointment with a holistic doctor). He found withdrawal harder than he anticipated and, no longer having access to prescription meds, he had to go the illicit route;
.
or
.
2) His doctor took him off pain meds because he (Prince) had developed serious health issues (ie liver damage) as a consequence of taking them for so long...For me, this one makes sense in light of P's change of behaviour in latter years. However, it still takes us back to his resorting to illict drugs when he found he couldn't manage...
.

And then we're left wondering - was it a 'true' accident, was it a deliberate 'trust to fate' scenario, or was it suicide (albeit one the ME and others did not recognise / anticipate - remember, P was incredibly private; a note may well not have been his style, along with divulging any feelings of depression).

.
I know that others on here think the fentanyl pill may have been planted - right now, I just don't even want to go there - it's too horrible a thought!
.

I think the only reason people are saying it was planted was because of the unnamed source saying that the pills were laying around in the black bag and that other bottles were found in his private dressing area. Everybody who know Prince said he was super neat so why would he have pilll laying around in a bag. Why did Romero the body guard say he packed P's bag everyday except for that last week and never saw drugs. Why are so many people who interacted with him on a daily basis saying they never saw him high? More importantly if he was seeing Dr. S for withdrawals and felt well enought to travel to Australia he must have beaten his addication to the pills and what he thought he was taking was quite mild. He does not fit the narravative of someone who was feening for drugs so bad that he purposely took Fentanyl. So we understand why the ME said accidental but now the police are saying they are looking for potential witnesses.

Witnesses to what if this was accidental? Nothing make sense. eek

I read somewhere that the "wait a few days..." comment was directed at Duran Duran who dedicated Save a Prayer to Prince after hearing about the plane incident.

SONSHINE: I am going to share this only because some think that no one could possibly have any idea what those around Prince might have been going through. This is painful but I will share.

I had a boss that was like my son. I loved him dearly. He was addicted to prescription drugs. In his

eyes, he was safe and not addicted because a Dr. prescribed them for him. The Dr. prescribed 180

of these pills at a time. Plus anything else you might want, all you had to do was tell him and he

would write it. There also was 2 surgeons in my bosses's family and that didn't help matters. For 5

years I battled his drug problem. Cleaning him up when he puked everywhere, hiding car

keys, throwing away prescriptions when I found them. (He had them hid everywhere) He would

would pass out and I would take him home and keep watch over him until he would finaly wake up.

I never left him alone. If he didn't show up for work I was scared to death going over to find him

and see if he was ok... alive. His mother came to me and asked me to help her plan an intervention.

We failed at trying to get him to go and get help. A few months later he had a car accident and he

had a choice of jail or 90 day rehab. He went to rehab of course. It did no good. He was back at it

within days of getting out. There were many times that he was so messed up and I refused to leave

him and he was furious. I simply handed him the phone and told him to call the police and have me

removed, then I could tell them that he was a danger to himself and others. Needless to say, I won

those battles. The end for me came when I threw away every last stash he had. He was livid and

fired me. 3 weeks later, he took his pills, drank a good bit of wine, and got into a hot tub. 12 years

ago on Christmas Eve, my boss died of a drug overdose. He was 33 years old. A good looking,

loving, funny, smart, man. I can only imagine how the people that truly love Prince feel. I know how

I feel and it's been 12 long years. You never know the trials and pain that a person on the other

side of screen has had in their lives. Plese be kind because you never know.

Sorry for your loss, Zena. hug hug

.You went through all of that and you can still see the strong possibility of foul play in Prince's death .wow. grouphug
I asked Prince what he was planning to do. He told me , I'm going to look for the ladder. I asked him what that meant. All he said was, sometimes it snows in April. - book D.M.S.R.

Thank yall for your kind thoughts. I appreciate them more than you know. hug

Now you know why I have a hard time seeing the "drug addiction" in P's case. No where over the

years has anything even close been told by anyone. There are functional alcoholics and funtional

addicts. Sooner or later there will be binges that can last for days and that is when they are out of

control and very hard to deal with. We have heard nothing like this. P worked every day, toured, and

no one knew or saw anything of the sort. I can believe that P was sick with the flu as he tweeted

about it himself. Past that I'm not sure. I can consider it but it doesn't fit. The whole intervention part

is just like the ER plane landing, they don't make sense. Addiction would have shown itself long before now. There are all the statements of associates saying that P did not use drugs. Then as DIBS said, Tavis Smiley said that he knew that P took pain meds. We don't what he was taking or how long he had been taking meds.

A thought came to me and this is something that I know nothing about, he had just gotten his

passport renewed. Do you have to get immunizations and if so what kind? Can the shots make you ill? He was planning to go out of the country in November.

THIS. Exactly, Sonshine, exactly. Btw, how did the content of the "curiosities" thread and the "death" thread get so reversed? Did the Queen order this as a means of muddying the waters?
Yeah, I give up. Poor prince. I'm sure he would rather his fans were discussing his music and his accomplishments and not the sensitive issues surrounding his death. Like I said when somee of the folks here find themselves in the shoes of people closest to Prince then maybe they will understand how nothing and everything is normal in these situations. They have no right to judge the actions of any of the people involved without being there and without first hand knowledge of the situation. Speculate all you want or move on. It's your choice. I'm trying to move forwsrd. Good luck to all of you.

Yes to both of you in all comments, but particularly the statement I placed in bold. The accusations have gotten out of hand. It's very sad that those closest to him, who have lost the most, now have fans slandering their names and reputations.

NOORIGINALUSERNAME: Thank you for your kind words. I think that our deep discussions on this thread are being misunderstood. We discuss each person involved and different scenarios. Researching and providing links and comparing reports and articles. We are just discussing things as we see them. As far as saying flat out that we are absolutely sure of this or that, I can't recall that being the case. The folks on this thread are able to discuss things without being rude and over bearing. We feel comfortable with being honest and sharing our thoughts. We can discuss anything from the occult to murder, to whatever, and that's ok. That's what this thread is about. We are all driven to find the truth. Surely you have to admit that this case is very strange. We are only human. There is no right or wrong here as we know nothing for sure. We cannot just close our eyes and forget that Prince is gone and go on our merry way not caring about what happened and not be bothered by it. There are those that expect that from everyone and it is IMPOSSIBLE. Sometimes discussions are a good way to work through a loss.

I agree P did not fit into what it really looks like when someone is addicted to even prescription drugs let alone "street drugs".

If he had a skin condition, wouldn't it be on his face also? I see that he has changed from wearing x wide collars and tailored suits and went to loose fitting clothing. I see his turtle necks as compensating for the x wide collars.




Ok. I'm not talking about a skin condition.



I'm talking about a physical illness that might make one frail. Like Dibblekins mentioned P being very thin and that's what I mean, except pre-2014 P wasn't shy about showing his arms and legs and neck regardless of being JW. Plus he still wore colors.



I'm noticing after 2014/15-ish he was covered up except his face AND wearing all black. Made me think 1) he was keeping others from seeing how frail he was becoming, 2) he was trying to stay warm due to becoming increasingly frail, 3) wearing black unconciously due to depression over an ever progressing illness.



I'm just thinking out loud.




Around the time "they" started poisoning him according to my source. eek



nod that thought stuck with me too. Are you able to say who your source is?

A lot of sites reported this. A lot.

" Andrew's dad, rehab specialist Dr. Howard Kornfeld, got the call from Prince's rep the day before the singer died, pleading with him to come to Minnesota to save Prince from a fatal OD. "




https://www.google.pt/search?q=Andrew+Kornfeld&rlz=1C1GGGE_pt-PTPT509PT509&oq=Andrew+Kornfeld&aqs=chrome..69i57j69i60l2&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8




So, forget about the doctor's son for a minute. That REP pleaded with the doctor to come and save Prince from a fatal OD that hadn't happen yet? Who was that Rep? Prince was probably so far gone in his addiction that they felt the need to call the doctor the day before. There was urgency. Yet, the doctor did not come, instead sending his son with illegal meds. The son then went to the hotel first, after taking a night flight. Where's the urgency in this?



eek
That right there says a lot!
So really How did she know P was going to take laced fentanyl and die? Seems she might know what was really in Andrews backpack then gave this bs story of P in grave danger ....

I don't want to keep beatdeadhorse ... but in going back and reviewing many reports and articles,


even top news agencies, this is how they read...


"Law Enforcement Officials told TMZ" and "It cannot be confirmed but TMZ is reporting" everybody


knows that TMZ is a dig up all the dirt and make sh.....up bird cage liner. So pray tell me why would


LE tell TMZ anything???? Were the other news outlets diligent in pursuing the truth?


Did they just take TMZ's word as thruth? If you go to the TMZ website and go through the archives,


you can plainly see when they hammered Prince and when they left him alone. I went all the way back


to 2011. Type in their search bar Prince. You can go back over the years. How is it that they were the first to know that P's plane made that ER landing?? Why did they start hounding him again?? Pics at the DMV, pics at Walgreen. Prince telling everyone not to believe the media.....As an after


thought, since TMZ was so good at getting the story FIRST, where's the pics and story of P's


body being removed from PP??? Just asking!! The other news outlets don't have this information either. Is it because they didn't have it from TMZ to report??? confuse disbelief




TMZ had the "lead" on this story.... and they are not even legitimate

All very good questions. All we need to do is find the missing pieces to the puzzle.


.


I think TMZ had the lead on all these stories, because they are owned by WB. They are all in cahoots!!


.


I also think that someone who was in Prince's "inner circle" is feeding a lot of this BS to TMZ!! eek




Seems very possible....can't get over that tmz knew to be in moline, Ps plane was not supposed to land there. That one is very strange...the others are too but you would have to be tipped off to get that location and time correct!
