Is this statement on Facebook to suggest that they feel he was murdered? | |

ya, i figured someone would make something of that. the sun is our oldest god, the grower of life, and if you check, is the story of christ symbolically. so i figured someone would try to make something of that. I doubt if the paramedics who dragged him out would have taken the time to point his fingers at it but we got some out there ideas around here. | |

. I can't drink that stuff. That junk will give you heart palpatations and all kinds of problems. People are addicted to that stuff; be careful.

Just a supposition: I wonder if after the first Atlanta show when Prince told Judith "it was boring", he's bored, etc, if he was speaking to the format of those shows. Perhaps he missed he energy of a "typical" Prince show...high energy guitar, dancing, etc. and knowing he wasn't capable of putting on a show like that at that time was probably difficult. | |

whatever it is it was Wet when it was dropped or thrown down. it splattered and left trails indicating it was at a medium velocity and wet. At first, I thought it might be vomit... "Keep on shilling for Big Pharm!" | |

She didn't know anything about his life. the informatio (or whatever you want to call it) was from her interaction with prince in 1990. She has sadly struggled in recent years with well-publicized mental-health issues, so I think we should take her statements in that light

She might be holding back what she knew about Prince's past with pills but considering she wasn't at Paisley constantly, her relative newness to his life and his generally eccentric and evasive personality, it is possible she never directly saw him take anything until that night on the plane and just figured he was sick and depressed for the last 3 months. I hope that is the case. it sounds like that night on the plane (if what they are saying is true), Prince was starting to lose control of his facade. Or she might have known he was addict but didn't want to paint him that way to the cops but didn't know that the hard stuff was what he was taking.

So is it accurate to say that only some of the statements police collected were released? I read the ones from Josh/Hannah, LG, Kirk, Andrew, Meron, and Judith, and the summary of the one from Omarr. Are there others in the materials (I know about Sinead's)? I haven't been able to download or read everything yet; curious about what those who have found. I assume the police took many more statements than what I've seen so far, but perhps redacted them? | |

So, what it seems like is many of Prince's associates/former associates were gossiping amongst themselves about his painkiller abuse for years. | |

Strive said: Crazy to think that Prince could play the best shows of his career, comprehend that fact and still arrive at the conclusion of 'it's so boring, incredibly boring' Same with him starting to perk up after the second show. Was he excited because he knew he reached the mountaintop or was he excited it was over and he could He loved performing, but then, once the performance was done, it was like back to reality. He could escape reality for a bit while he was on stage. . I think he was having an existential crisis. This activity, making music, that was everything to him, had become difficult for him physically because of the pain in his joints and hands. He had friends and colleagues, but there was a revolving door of these friends and colleagues. His family members appear to have been distant. I don’t know if he was still attending Kingdom Hall every Sunday with Larry, but my impression is that he had drifted away from his JW faith somewhat or was less devout than he had been 10 to 15 years earlier. He talked with people via phone, e.g. Tamron Hall, but talking on the phone is not the same as having someone physically present. Other than his doves, did he have any pets? . Imagine how he must have felt. He had his home, PP, that is a shrine to his entire career. It’s beautifully decorated. It was home. But then, he had no family with whom to share his life or his accomplishments. He was a very nurturing person. He mentored so many people, particularly women. But ultimately, they would spread their wings and explore other pastures. He stayed in touch with many of these people: Wendy, Lisa, Damaris Lewis, Shelby J., Janelle Monae. But these people all had their own lives as well. . Music was his life and he didn’t know how to retire from it. What was he going to do in its place? He had no wife or children or grandchildren. As I understand, he was looking forward to being Uncle Prince to Josh and Hannah Welton’s new baby upon the baby’s birth. He was writing his memoir. So he still had things and people for which/whom to live, but I suspect that thins people and things could not take the place of making music. . As far as I know, the only significant break he ever took from making music during his adult life was when Amiir was alive. Mayte wrote in her book that he was in total papa bear mode and was a loving husband while Amiir was alive. He spent 6 days at the hospital and went home 1 time to take a shower while Amiir was alive. He spent some days grieving Amiir’s death, but it was not clear in Mayte’s book how many days that was. . It’s unknown how he felt, later in life, about his dream of fatherhood that ended up being short-lived. But, to my knowledge, fatherhood is the only situation that gave him a level of purpose on par with the purpose that music gave him. Fatherhood is the only reason he ever stopped making music during his adult life. He talked about how wonderful fatherhood or expectant fatherhood was in numerous interviews, e.g., Oprah in 1996. So, again, I don’t know how he felt about fatherhood at the end of his life. Was he content with not having any living children or did he still yearn for it? I don’t know. But from what Judith says in the interview, he was feeling depressed and he expressed that he was having difficulty performing music and also that he felt he didn’t have much else to do with his life. I think he didn’t know what to do with himself if he couldn’t make music. Live 4 Love ~ Love is God, God is love, Girls and boys love God above | |

I'm not buying Andrew Kornfeld's story either. He regularly carries drugs when traveling? Wow, that's scary!! He's not qualfied to administer ANY type of drug, yet he states in the case of an emergency, he would ask a doctor first. Now, how in the world can he possibly do that in an emergency situation? That makes no damn sense! He claims he didn't tell his father, Howard Kornfeld that he was taking the drugs with him to Paisley Park. Oh really now? We are supposed to believe that? Howard Kornfeld is a scumbag for ever sending his son Andrew to PP. He should have never been there! What a terrible thing to do to your son and put him in the middle of such an horrific situation.

ya, it definitely don't sound to me like he wanted to live if he took the same thing he took the week before. Prince was a very intelligent guy, no matter how hooked he was, i couldn't see it just totally taking away his own unique self-reflection, honesty and heart, just can't see it. I still think suicide is a very real conclusion. At any rate, the investigation have given us enough to run around in circles for at least another 2 years. good job fuckers.

The descripton of him in the elevator certainly sounds like he took the pill(s) and deliberately laid down to go ... In a place he had previously referred to in song. I think his leaving was intentional. But we don't know the whole story. Release of the autopsy report would help end the speculation, but that won't happen. Release pictures of his body? Sure - it's within the law. Release medical information - not for another 28 years per the law. That's just ridiculous. Taxpayer funds paid for the autopsy and associated activities - it should be public record. | |

I could be wrong, but I was under the impression after his son was born with the genetic problems he was born with /died from, that Prince found out that could be a possibility with any child he fathered ? Can anyone confirm ? I thought there was something about this in Mayte's book? [Edited 4/21/18 12:09pm] | |

yup, we'll be going on about that for awhile, as i've been saying, the non-fans see more clearly than we do when it comes to that. I can't tell you how many posts from non-fans where they say "it looks like he just tried it once, failed, did it again and succeeded", it's us who overanalyze. [Edited 4/21/18 12:10pm] | |
