. Kirk was an enabler; that's why he got a lawyer. He said that Prince was very private. . No one can convince me that Kirk did not know Prince was addicted to opiates. Kirk did not see all those bottles of pills in various rooms? Nope, sorry -- not buying that for one second!! . B.S.!!

I don't think they were that close either but I don't think he was completely heartless either.

I am over-analysing???... as if anything revolving around Prince is simple. You are jumping from A to Z when there could be plausible, less cynical reasons for things. You are under-analysing. Yes, they were enablers..but "enabling" is complicated is all I am saying.

Wasn't it Prince who said something along the lines that "friends are not people who are on your payroll"?..he knew. | |

sure they know, i just watched a thin lizzy docu, phil knew he had a problem and he knew it was serious. However, the thing with prince, he never sounded better, never played better, which is what i said from the beginning, i know that drugs effect everyone different but most of these guys will say it fucks up everything, from relationships, to their musicianship and it doesn't take until 57 to catch up to most of them. Phil died at 35. Prince had to know he had a problem, he went to enough trouble to keep it all hush hush, i'm not saying the things people say, i'm talking a deeper level, where peoples souls know. not what they say, how they act. | |

. I apologize if I offended you; that was not my intent. . I just think that a lot of people dissect Prince's life a bit too much, and try to figure out what made him tick. I don't think he was really that complicated, imo. He was a huge rock star and a legend, but he was only human, like the rest of us. . At the end of the day, Prince had problems, just like everyone else; he had his faults, regrets, insecurities, heartbreak, being used by people, etc.........only thing different was that he had money, and lots of it; but that doesn't buy happiness. . He enjoyed books, watching movies and talking about life, just like the rest of us--just regular stuff. It seemed like he was pretty-much a regular guy when he wasn't on the road being "Prince".

1. Why didn't they obtain a search warrant for Kirk Johnson's residence??? They found scripts issued in his name but didn't search his residence??? DUMB DUMB!!! 2. Also where was the Percocet that Dr. S. prescribed in KJ's name? It obviously wasn't found at Paisley or any of Prince's possessions. So what happened to it? [Edited 5/12/18 15:45pm] | |

. Good question! Kirk was manager of PP and had full-access to that place, 24/7. The fact that they did not conduct a search warrant on his residence is beyond me! . He was giving Percocet to Prince, which was prescribed in Kirk's name, so there is no telling what else he was giving him. . Kirk said he dropped Prince off around 8PM, but Meron stated that she and Kirk left around 10:30PM. . Kirk & Meron picked up Andrew at his hotel on the 21st, and went for Breakfast, while Prince was in dire need of medical attention. Does this sound like they were worried about Prince? .

He probably also had access to a computer at home ... but they solely focused on Prince's laptop. Also, Prince had a desktop in the upstairs office I believe. That should have also been seized.
-
The morning timeline of the 21st is still bothering me. A significant amount of time unaccounted for. In reviewing KJ'S cell phone records it looks like Andrew made several attempts to contact Kirk after landing from 6:22 a.m. - 7:42 a.m. I"m going to assume Kirk didn't p/u him up until after 7:42 a.m. Kirk then made two phone calls at 7:49 a.m. and 7:51 a.m. to Prince's bedroom and kitchen. After that no more attempts. What's even more strange is that Andrew didn't check in until 8:45 a.m. So what was going on between Andrew, Kirk, and Meron from 7:42 a.m. - 8:45 a.m. Andrew says that Kirk and Meron check him into the hotel and then they had breakfast. So, they had breakfast for maybe 15 mins? 8:45 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. and then headed for Paisley arriving at 9:15 a.m. approximately according to Andrew
--
Andrew was taking to an office on the West side of the building. It was a larger office located off one of the larger recording studios. Yet, he was able to hear Meron scream and find his way towards the elevator?
--
Also, Kirk stated looking in the black bag after the emergency landing but only finding medicine/prescription for something called Nyozen or something like that but couldn't remember the name ... UMM HMM | |

. That is a very good point -- why wasn't Kirk's personal home computer checked? . I recall in the documents, Judith mentioned Prince's office, where he would leave in the middle of the night and go on his personal computer. . I was reading Kirk's and Andrew's statements the other day, but I can't quite recall what time he picked-up Andrew. I think it's fair to say that the timeline does not add up. Why would Kirk be ringing Prince at 7:49AM? So, he just shrugged it off, and went for breakfast with Andrew and Meron? . Yes, Andrew claimed he got to PP around 9-9:15AM-ish. It took them 30-minutes to locate Prince?! . Andrew stated that he did not have any information on Prince's condition, only that he was struggling with opiates. . Andrew also stated that he was not aware that Dr. Shulenberg was making a visit on the 21st. This just keeps getting more and more weird. . But, Carver County Sheriff stated that they would leave no stone unturned. . .

I'm not sure why everyone is saying Percocet. The pharmacy RX History says 2 scripts were filled for KJ on 4/14 at 2 different pharmacies. ( One Prescribed by a Dentist Dr. Boo and one by Dr. Schulenberg)
1. Oxycodone-Acetaminophen - 10
2. Acetaminophen- COD 3 - 15
One script filled at Walgreen @ 7845 Portland Ave S Bloomington, Mn one script filled at CVS@ 7765 Galpin Blvd Chanhassen, Mn
It is stated in the narratives that investigators found the scripts in the dumpster at PP and all pills were accounted for. The 3 scripts written for Prince on 4/20 were NOT found at PP. KJ admitted to taking them to his home.... after first stating that he had thrown them away because Prince had said they weren't working for him. LE took one of KJ's relatives to his house @ 2178 Redfox Circle to retreave those 3 scripts and put them into evidence. | |

What do you mean you don't understand why everyone is saying Percocet? It happends to be the brand name used by Dr. S and others in the investigation report. Dr S said he felt comfortable prescribing Prince 15 PERCOCET. He didn't say oxycodone-acetaminophen Due to a typo in the stamp number from one of the incident reports I didn't see it listed in the evidence list We are aware of the 3 scripts (in Prince's name) being recovered from KJ's residence. However, that shouldn't have negated a search warrant being issued upon KJ's residence. The fact that other scripts issued in KJ' name were found at Paisley sholulhd have necessitated a warrant. If anything, to find evidence or knowledge of counterfeit pills. Instead, investigators limited their search instead of expanding it to include search warrants upon the residences of KJ, Ray Roberts, Meron (hotel, parents house), and even the Weltons. You don't leave any stone unturned in a criminal investigation ... and that includes EVERYONE associated with the victim. [Edited 5/12/18 21:08pm] | |

Goodness....google Percocet and you will find it is oxycodone and acetaminophen. I believe Percocet is the generic, or off brand name. In other words, they are one in the same. Also, this opioid WAS found at PP in amongst other pills. I would have to look at the docs for the specifics but this has been discussed many, many times.

I was referring to the information directly from the investigation files. In Electronics Records File #5, under the Misc. Documents is the actual RX History Form. The information came directly from pharmacy records. MB's Country Inn Suits room should have been searched as well as KJ's home, I fully agree with that. I have been researching this case since the beginning. I know how thorough investigations are conducted. The interviews were not so much fact finding as they were gossipy. As an example, if you read the Welton's interview, they were not separated and the detective was not in control of the situation. The detective asked very few questions. It was more of the Weltons endlessly chattering and the detective saying "yeah" every now and then. I noticed that during some of the interviews the sessions were interupted or stopped to be resumed later. YOU DON'T DO THAT!! Once an interview starts it should never be interupted or allowed to end without being completed. Something that I don't understand is that we have access to some statement transcripts from KJ,MB, RR,TN, but the audio was not released. The initial interviews from these folks were interupted and ended without completion, set aside for another time. That gave them time to confer with others and "think". I certainly have no alterior motive here other than to share truth and FACTS. I have spent the past 2 yrs...pretty much 24/7, investigating and researching. I was not questioning you BONDNO9. I was quoting verbatim what is stated in the RX History. Dr.S in his statement said Percocet. I am part of the "WE" here and have been. I respect others and was only commenting, giving information. Not everyone has downloaded the investigation files in it's entirety. I apologize if you mistook my post and were offended.

There was nothing professional about those interviews. It was like the Police had already made up their minds about what had happened and were just going through the motions. | |

I don't doubt that he "knew" all along. I am just wondering what exactly "knew" meant. Maybe he used to pick up pills for p in his name, then stopped and P seemed to go off pills, but his health went to shit, people suspected it was pain and withdrawal, then KJ gave in again getting those 15 percocet, and then realized P had gotten other pills elsewhere..and was like "Oh, no, not this shit again". We don't know the ins and outs and ups and down's of this shit. We also shouldn't assume that P didn't take his own actions to get pills. He was carrying his own bags, he did have disguised bottles in those bags, he did have a vault with cash in it. He wasn't an invalid. He knew a lot of celebrities and others musicians other than Kirk Johnson and despite the looks of Paisley at the end of his life, his last two years weren't necessarily the same as the last weeks of severe denial. I was just watching the clips from his Baltimore concert for Peace in May of 2015. He knew a lot of frigging people. For all we know, he got drugs from doug e. fresh (doubtful, I am just throwing out one of many celebrities he knew and had casual friendships with.).

I second that. It is quite a lot of info to sift through. Thanks for all you orgers for your dedication and pointing out all the important info. I rely on your work to stay up to date on all of this.

Prince knew a lot of different people and knew many famous faces, in the investagative files Manuela said during their marriage prince's drug dealer was a well known producer, this same producer tried to attend the memorial she put together but she blocked him/her from going. Who knows where prince got those pills [Edited 5/13/18 11:35am] | |
