anyone know?

I haven't heard anything. I'm sure it's being withheld from public. I would like to talk to the Pharmacy dept to know what he picked up. There hasn't been any news about that either.

It's really not anyone's business, and it's protected information. However, there was already an interview with a pharmacy tech/store worker about him visiting that particular branch.

Who drove him is rather irrelevant in the grand scheme.

You're right that it isn't our business. However, considering that this may have been the last person to see him alive, it's most definitely not irrelevant.

I read his bodyguard drove him there. The last 2 people with Prince was a woman who was a singer and a bodyguard, but their photos were pulled from the media.

Chris Gaither was in TX helping a friend. I wonder who the bodyguard was??

No one has ever said who he was with that last day or what he was doing. According to Dr. K Prince was gravely ill if he was so ill why was he not at home instead of being seen around town.

Anyone can pick up Rxs on your behalf. His whole last day is unknown to the public and even the media has not followed up to find out what was going on that day.

Who was he with and what were they doing?

Any why does it matter? Is this more fodder for another idiotic conspiracy theory? I am pretty sure this wasn't much different that all his other pharmacy visits. The driver was whoever was around that day when he decided he wanted to go to the pharmacy. Here's what would happen if you could interview The Last Person To See Prince Alive: "Yeah, he asked me to run him to the pharmacy to pick up his meds, so I did. He sent me in cuz #FirstWorldFameProblems AND he wanted everyone to believe that an imaginary sky fariy magic kept him from needing medication, so I picked them up for him. Nothing out of the ordinary. I've done it a million times before."

Perhaps your answer can be found in the non-existant Akashic Records? Good luck!

Wrong.

I saw it on the web with my own eyes. They even had photos of the last 2 people he was with on Wednesday evening. I wish I had saved it, because it was taken down, unless I just can't find it.

They were the last 2 people with him on Wednesday and they described how they dropped him off around 8PM. They mentioned he looked fine, which I find odd, if others were saying he was in trouble. Trouble enough to call someone urgently.

It was a bodyguard, and a woman with reddish short hair, round face, round eyes, light skinned black woman in her mid 30s.

I wouldn't make anything up, I am just stating what I read in an article online.

So the article quoted these two people directly has having dropped him off because some news stories said it was an unknown acquaintance. The women sound like Meron Burke his personal assistant. I know both she and Kirk Johnson obtained lawyers almost immediatly and we are hearing that Kirk is still working at Paisley Park. Interesting that the interview disappeared because neither have spoken to the media since that article.

The chef said in an interview that he was told to leave Prince's dinner and go on April 20. He said it seemed Prince wanted to be alone. These were his words, not mine. So someone dropped Prince off and left, apparently.

Nope, not right. Dr. K didn't say Prince was "gravely ill." Dr. K's LAWYER was quoted as implying that it was Prince's associate(s) who contacted Dr. K on April 20 who felt that Prince was having a "grave medical emergency" (not "illness"). We don't know if that's an accurate representation of what Prince's associate(s) told Dr. K, nor do we know if Prince agreed with that assessment.

Laura, my point was that Dr. K's lawyer claimed that Prince's associate said Prince had a "grave medical emergency" (not "condition" or "illness"). When Dr. K's lawyer gave that interview, there was still the idea that Dr. K's son could have some legal culpability (for carrying the opioid-withdrawal meds he wasn't licensed to have), so it behooved the lawyer to emphasize the "emergency" aspect of the situation (to justify the son's actions). It "doesn't make sense" mostly to the degree that you accept or don't accept that out-of-control opioid use was a signficant part of the situation. I know where you fall on this (you post multiple times daily repeating your point of view), so there's not much more to say.

This has all already been discussed many, many, many times here. We don't have any more factual info; we don't know what stories "the media" is investigating now and many publish in the future, so we'll just have to wait on that.

maybe prince was making a good showing. like the dance party on the 15th. it would be consistant with his way of handling things(the oprah thing when amir died, for example). also consistant with his stated belief that if u don't admit it, won't be true. if we don't say he's dead he'll comeback-that kind of stuff. he had an iron will and no one would have told him no. had he lived he would never have addressed this moline landing or anything else. there is no good reason to believe he wouldn't at least attempt to make a good showing by being seen out running errands, just like he downplayed the plane landing to everyone who checked in with him when he got back to mpls.

Oh for christ sake, laura. I don't think the lawyer was "lying." Obviously there was an emergency (out-of-control opioid use and/or severe withdrawal) because Prince's associates reached out to an addiction specialist on April 20 and that Dr. arranged for an emergency intervention. Oh and Prince died of an opioid overdose less than 24 hours after Dr. K. was contacted. (And no, I don't think they called Dr. K beucase of Dr. K's"pain management" expertise and the emergency was Prince's overwhelming, crippling, incapacitating joint pain, having nothing to do whatsoever with opioid use. That just makes no sense. People don't stage emergency interventions because of joint pain.)

-

What I don't understand is what about this lawyer's interview from May has suddenly struck you as critical here. The relevance of Dr. K is simply that he, an addiction specialist, was brought into the situation the day prior to P's death. As for Dr. K's assessment of P, that's not very telling because he never actually met P. (Side note: The lawyer's interview was published in the Strib. Weren't you just ranting the other day that the Strib is nothing but worthless tabloid trash? Why are you even referencing a story published there?)

-

There's no "spin" going on other than what fantasists on this site have spun for the 8 months since P died. I know that there's excitement here that the reason there have been no charges yet is because authorities are busy building such a massive case around the murder conspiracy. But here's some reality: Every day that passes without charges makes it LESS likely that charges are ever coming, not more likely. And folks are going to have to find a way to deal with the fact that an incredible, gifted, hard-working person like Prince also had human weakness and vulnerabilies and made some poor choices along the way. Like every human being. #truth.

Do you have a comprehension problem? I asked a question about if you thought the Doctor was telling a lie. Did I say I believed the Doctor was telling a lie? I will answer this question for you since you never answer any questions or simply do not know what a question is. The answer is no.

We only know that Prince’s associates reached out to Dr. K from his lawyer’s comments and I believe one interview with Dr. K. We have no way of knowing if this intervention was known by Prince. From what I know most people do not know that an intervention is being planned as the reason for an intervention is usually because the person does not want help.

We the public have been told by unknown sources that Prince was seeing Dr. S for management of withdrawals so he would have already been getting help and we would have no way of knowing if he would have accepted the help of Dr. K’s son who it was reported arrived in Minneapolis the night of the 20^th. I would think an emergency would have meant Dr.K son would have gone to Paisley Park to meet with Prince that night.

Also the lawyer is only going to be able to tell the media what his client told him. I have friends who are defense attorneys they have had clients lie to them or only tell half the story.

Oh and Dr. K does practice alternatives to pain management at this center but apparently you do not believe Prince had any joint issues at all. We know that he told at least two people he was not feeling a 100 percent and that he was going to go see his Dr. to find out what was going on and let the promotor know and Andrian know about additional shows. Does that sound like something someone who is knowingly out of control on drugs would say. I need to see my doctor to tell me I am addicted to drugs and ill.

Dr K would have only been able to go on what the associates told him so we really do not know how sick Prince was or if he was sick at all.

I do not think the lawyer’s interview is critical but I think it is important since a poster on this board is saying they read an interview with two people who say they dropped Prince off the night of the 20^th and he seemed fine along with the fact that he was out and about the days before the 20^th with numerous people saying he was fine. Question How can someone be seen by so many people be out and about yet be described by his associates as in "grave medical emergency"? I get that Prince may have been saving face but if you are sick you cannot save face because you are too ill to be out and about. Please tell me you do not find this odd because it is odd.

“The lawyer's interview was published in the Strib. Weren't you just ranting the other day that the Strib is nothing but worthless tabloid trash? Why are you even referencing a story published there?”

I did not read the interview in the Star I saw the interview with the lawyer on CCN when he gave a press conference. You are the only fan of the Star Tribune on this board and I stand by everything I said about them because it is true. They did not give a rat’s ass about what Prince was doing prior to his death and their interest now is for the sole purpose of making money with no interest in the actual investigation of his case. It is much cheaper to go the tabloid route then it is to spend money on investigative reporting but you work in the media so you are well aware.

-

You are correct every day that passes means the case will not be solved which is going to be the fault of the keystone cops of Carver County.

Yes, you are right Prince had joint pain and used the powerful drugs that are the only means of medical help for that problem. I guess that was a poor choice on his part to utilize what was available.

Things about this case do not add up and it has been discussed numerous times with some new information just coming out that convinces me that more was going on with his help then joint pain and addiction. Maybe you should just stay off of this topic and enjoy reading Prince’s divorce file or the stupid articles today about his Real Estate being sold and the family fighting over the money when the money will be split equally by the court ( such top notch reporting by the media that is too clueless to look up probate law in Minneapolis )
