I dont get that either, when I hear Judith or Andy speaking about him to me it seems different to when I hear somone like Sheila E speaking about him , with Shelia you can see that bond they had but Judith was last with him not so long before he passed , you would think she would be more emotional or something if she was his latest luv interest, how she left his side 36 hrs after the plane thing and seemingly no reports of contact in his last few days or week, I wonder if they had a recent falling out or something . [Edited 2/8/18 12:49pm] Yeah. I can see them being together romantically (and there are reports that he was deferring to her on music related things from 2014 onward). I'm thinking that either they had a falling out / break up OR she might have been more involved in the drug thing than we realize and wanted to get some distance from it (just my opinion). Those are the only reasons that I could think of for why a person would leave their lover who just got out of hospital for OD. [Edited 2/8/18 13:06pm] Perhaps he just pushed her away. | |

Makes sense, at that point, she was privy to his inside issues and Prince may wanted to isolate from her. | |

Thats true and thats what I was saying in my earlier post... But still, if pushed away, do you leave the state? Do you get on a plane from MN to CA? I dont wanna be harsh but I still dont understand; all I can do is pray that she (and all of his loved ones) finds peace with the way things ended. I cannot imagine how hard it must be to forgive oneself for whatever actions took place and try to move forward. [Edited 2/8/18 13:43pm] | |

In her defense, I don't think that she thought that he was going to die. When she left him, it appeared that the crisis was over and that he was going to get some help. After all, she has to make a living too. | |

Laura, that thought has crossed my mind. She appears to be a head to me or maybe it's just my perception, but there is something about her. I wonder if she may have been stealing Prince's legitimate pills and then replacing them with street pills before he noticed that they were missing? | |

I posted the following snippets of JH's NYT article in reply #283, page 10 of this thread topic. I would imagine she left because 1) - she was convinced that Prince intended to follow through with promises he made regarding his willingness to seek help for his dependency and 2) - she did have an album to promote and commitments related to that. Furthermore, Prince might have alluded to the fact that if she remained in MN and cancelled her planned events, this might draw further attention to the plane/Moline incident and escalate an already heightened press interest in uncovering more information which could blow the whole "flu" story. Has it honestly gotten to the point here of indirectly accusing a protégé/girlfriend (whatever you name her) of being complicit in his death? I can't believe she feels anything but tremendous remorse about leaving MN when she did. I feel that by telling her version of the events she was hoping it might relieve some of that guilt. When I think of how she mourned, I always go back to her reaction when she opened the Purple box of mementos that were given to the fans at the fence. I saw a lot of anguish. JH at SHOUT OUT FOR A CAUSE on April 16, 2016 - info indicates she performed "Angel in the Dark" at this benefit for the Aviva Center. And, at approx 2:10 she mentions being in Atlanta with Prince/ photo of Prince at piano in Atlanta shown with date of April 15, 2016. NotACleverName said: Judith Hill reveals in her NYT article - https://www.nytimes.com/2...plane.html - that Prince was on board with the idea and plan for professional help as it related to an addiction. Paragraph 26 she says this...."He was very cooperative the whole night," she says, "serious about getting help." Paragraph 27 she reveals intended cooperation....Prince came around to the notion that he needed help. As he promised, he began taking steps to heal himself. He underwent tests by Dr. Michael Schulenberg. (most likely the visit on 4/20)* Paragraph 28 she explains Prince's thought process why help was needed....."He did it because he was concerned and he wanted to do the right thing for his own body," Ms. Hill said. "And that's the part that breaks my heart, because he was trying. He was trying". *MY personal thoughts - text not included in article "Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence......." ~ DESIDERATA ~ Max Ehrmann | |

I always thought the 'flu' equalled symptoms of his self induced withdrawal. The thought ran through my mind again when the investigation report mentioned halved tiny pills in bottles. After narcan is a dangerous time either way... To have one's system wiped. Its necessary but I feel like it requires some type of official/unofficial observation until the person gets over the hump. The reports I read said that Prince became increasingly agitated every day after the plane emergency. | |

. Hmmm. . What Prince considered being celibate and what us regular folks consider it to be, might be two completely different things!

. The idea of breaking pills in half sounds like a person who is trying to be cautious. After the OD in Moline, Prince should have been under observation. The sole reason why he is no longer with us, is because he didn't get proper treatment. We have no way of knowing if he was agitated, because the media just wants to spin the story of another rock star who overdosed; it fits their agenda.

Yes I think he had an idea that he was needing to wean either because he was becoming aware that he was addicted or because the onset of something else was prompting a weaning. I think the cancelation of the first Atlanta shows was perhaps hard weaning then Perhaps he got a handle on the amount he could take and still be ok. Then maybe the beast of cravings/pain crept back up. Yes your correct there was no substitution he needed professional assistance. | |

I've just never heard of a stone cold addict breaking pills in half. Takes a lot of control and awareness of an issue to do that. When I was on Oxy for spine issues, I know I couldnt do it. I just wanted to be out of pain... Its hard enough to focus on not mixing pain pills but definitely aint got no time to break tiny pills into halves and thirds. If I recall correctly, the reports of agitation came from his camp, observations at the last Paisley party, and fans at Electric Fetus. We will never know for sure unless more folks confirm but even then, those observations could be skewed. At the end of the day, he was a rock star and he did OD... No way around that. No bias or skewing needed. I wish those werent the facts but they are. Unfortunately, we are all trying to make sense of the senseless. Theres no good answer and we may never know exactly what happened in those last days. | |

Oh, I'm sure of that! Thats why it makes me laugh when folks are like 'he's celibate so no sex'. I'm like 'ok, yeah, define sex....well that sounds like sex to me'. | |

This is from Sharon's Q & A's. Rebeljuice:
Q: But if you can, please could you tell us about what you know regarding the months prior to Prince's passing and what he was dealing with? There is so much congecture, tabloid gossip and general confusion surrounding everything that a first hand account would help to clear things up and, no doubt, provide closure to many. I guess in a nutshell my question is: What on earth happened and why?
A: Believe me, we all will find out the truth!
Q: So why does nobody open up and speak the truth? I'm still grieving and it seems as if I won't be able to find any comfort as long as there are no answers. Because of this it doesn't sit well with me to support any of the new Prince offerings by the estate. Pop is a big fat lie, but life isn't.
A: I understand your frustration; we are dealing with this issue as well.

Clarification please if someone can do so: how did we go from hearing that the family members can't have access to the investigative files because the investigation is still open to saying that they don't know what the autopsy report said? Was it specifically noted somewhere that they don't know what is on the autopsy report and if so, would someone tell me where that was noted? Welcome to "the org", Mumio…they can have you, but I'll have your love in the end | |

I think it came from this article that LauraRichardson linked to a few posts back: https://www.courthousenew...his-death/ - The article starts: "Prince’s siblings told a Minnesota court they cannot decide whether to file a wrongful-death suit for the superstar’s death because the county sheriff’s, medical examiner’s and attorney’s offices have denied them access to investigative data." - You can read the actual court filing here. The stuff about the medical examiner's data is on page 4.

I would hate to think that the family didn't get the full autopsy report. Maybe they did and it still showed that he died of nothing other then an accidental overdose. Could be the Drs in Moline that they will go after?? If the family doesn't know anymore than we do, no wonder they haven't came out said anything. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
not sure if this makes sense or not, but the family may have an idea WHO gave him the illicit pill(s) and are going after that party through a civil/wrongful death suit, since it doesn't appear that the criminal investigation is going anywhere (is it possible they have been biding their time to see if anything came of the criminal investigation?). If this is the case, the family would need access to the investigative files.
Wonder if KJ/Dr. S and Andrew are shitting their pants? [Edited 2/9/18 7:47am] | |

This may sound cynical, but I think that a potential wrongful-death suit is also an opportunity for the siblings to make money. I don't mean that as a criticism necessarily; that's how our legal system works. But it's possible their motives are different than, say, a fan's might be.
