mnfriend said: I re-watched Prince on Arsenio Hall 2014 whole different perspective now that he passed. He knew. To me, P seemed to choke down tears/emotion when Arsenio said 'you've always been a good friend to me' I don't know exactly what was going on with his health but something serious WAS going on. I think that's what's so painful--- he was carrying it. On the other hand, w/ the knowledge he got to set things right. --- I will have to watch it again but someone on one of the Facebook pages said they looked right at him at the Warner Theater in 2015. They said he was letting Stevie Wonder perform and he was on the side of the stage watching and just had saddest look on his face. | |

I think it depends on whether you're of the opinion that Prince (and Tyka) knew his time was limited and that he started doing 'unusual' / out of character things during the last two years of his life as a consequence... . Others' views differ - and that's OK too... . | |

Maybe we should look at this in reverse. Meaning rather than withdrawing from pain meds, he was starting to take them and they were making him ill. Possibly a form of crippling arthritis was the cause of his pain. His mother was wheelchair bound from severe arthritis and she was in pain, along with the need of a second kidney transplant when she passed. I did research on arthritis and some types are hereditary. I don't know anything for sure of course, but it's a different way of looking at it. He had just come home after being out of the US touring. Perhaps he could have acquired meds out of the country. Maybe he saw Dr. S because the meds were making him ill. I'm still not convinced that his food wasn't being tainted. Perhaps a bit of both??? Thus the reason for the tests that Dr. S performed, which has yet to be a proven fact.

Dibblekins, true we may never know the answers,who knows you maybe right....JMO there is so much we have not been told therefore all is just speculation. I like hearing what all are thinking.
Wish we were told the truth! IMO still thinking someone was doing something to eliminate him. I believe what those who spoke to him have said like Appolonia mentioned There was a Judas in his life since 2014. Also reading what others have said even those who attended his piano and mic shows the last couple of months...no one was ready for this. Also the last couple weeks of his life are full of questions with no real answers. The Cali dr&son story does not add up not going to go through all again it's been discussed here many times only to be taken down. like Zena pointed out he went to see Dr S my guess is he wanted to know why he was not feeling right and he was found not responsive before he received those results. Possibly the person responsible for him not feeling well ended Ps life cuz they were about to get caught? Again just speculating but that thought has not Been proven wrong IMO yet. All we know is it is a Homicide investigation. [Edited 12/27/16 20:33pm] | |

I've said my opinion before, but to add: I certainly do not think his food was messed with, my goodness his chef was the only sincerely honest comment after P passed to tell us P was throwing up food/ couldn't keep it down and he didn't touch his last prepared meal. I say it's classified a homicide investigation because of the illegal deadly pills/bad street drugs, which has been a serious problem in Mpls. let's not forget the former Glam Slam manager found dead 3 or so months after from the same bad street drug. Perhaps they (DEA) are trying to nail the source/ illegal drug dealer. | |

Perhaps they (DEA) are trying to nail the source/ illegal drug dealer. There could be a few sources of food being tampered with and without the chef having knowledge of it. For instance nutrient additives for smoothies....soups, could have been given to the chef to use in the preparation of P's food and drinks. There are more than just the chef that was in PP on a daily bases. So I certainly would not put suspicion on just the chef. I am not pointing to any one person. I am looking at everyone. Just like others here, I'm searching for the truth. It seems the only way to find the truth is sorting through a lot of ugly. | |

I don't know where the comment came from, but someone posted here on the org that the chef's wife said "they" lied to them about the state of Prince's health. Who was "they?" The chef and his wife apparently noticed Prince's change in appearance and the decline in his health, so they asked a person or persons around him what was going on. Of all of the people in Prince's circle, employ or whatever, I thought this was the truest statement of all. And then they stopped talking and now they offer food at PP. [Edited 12/28/16 5:47am] | |

I believe the autopsy would have revealed any chemical/poison (like unknowingly put in a smoothie) they took a long time with tissue/ organ/ blood analysis and it was the highly jacked fentanyl pill that caused death. Agree 1Sasha everything I briefly read (after they went silent) from the chef and his wife was sincere/love of P. | |

Where did you see that the chef's said they were lied to about his health? I saw an interview with the female chef a few weeks ago were she was discussing how neat and detail oriented he was and started crying during the interview.
I am also not sure why they would think that if Prince had health issues they would be informed about it. They both are still working at Paisley Park so I doubt they are upset or concerned about their own health.

My point was that "unknown drugs" "additives" COULD have been in the food and drinks. Example: diazepam.....without the knowledge of the chef. If you believe the media, there were several drugs in P's system. How did they get in his system?? Did he willingly, knowingly take all the meds?? Or were they given to him without his knowledge. I'm throwing out different scenarios. We really don't know. | |

The unnamed source said the other substances were found in his system it did not say they were found in the pills. This is the problem with the media using unamed sources.
Diazepam can be used for seziures the other substance can be injected into the joints for pain relief or used as a heart med. We know that Dr. S wrote other Rxs for Prince and the police would have access all of his medical records and would know what he was taking with an actual RX and what he never prescribed.
It is possible that someone slipped him something and it could be the reason the case is still open. I know there is more to the case then a simple open and shut o.d.

Exactly my thoughts. It is not a "slam dunk" case and there are many, many things that could have happened. Like I have openly admitted here before I have an open mind and I have researched things that scare the hell out of me. There are several ways this case can go. For now we are left with speculation only. | |

See the chef did not say he was throwing up food. The chef said he was asking for soups and smoothies because he said he throat was sore and complained of stomach pain. Nothing about throwing up. | |

There was no reference to their own health. The comment was from the wife specifically. They did know - somehow - that Prince wanted smoothies and other soft food because he was having digestive issues. | |

They really did not seem to know very much but I would not expect them to know anything I did find it interesting that they said he was a little less chatty but overall his demeanor did not change. | |

The media bs is responsible for the drug story. [Edited 12/28/16 14:29pm] | |

Seriously, this 1 article from the lovely couple chefs says more about his recent life than anything else or anyone! http://www.citypages.com/...fs-8238997 | |

Remember reading that article...the people's comments are what many are thinking and Either the chefs statements are off or the writer.
The chef couple mention they had not yet gone on the piano and mic tour with Prince. That was proven on here that the couple was at the Atlanta 4-14 show. There was a photo with them showing their passes hmmmmm... Found the link go to post 95 http://prince.org/msg/7/430382?&pg=4 [Edited 12/28/16 16:22pm] | |

Laura, I think this statement is from a Facebook page (that I also read). When people were saying the chef poisoned P someone emailed the wife and told her what people were saying. She denied the allegations, and said they were lied to about what was wrong with P. | |
