. We've already tried, to no avail. It was a lot of hearsay, but no real proof that it actually happened. CNN has their transcripts online, but there is nothing there about shots being fired at Paisley. I guess we will just have to throw that one into the big crystal ball of mystery!! .

. Hey, WD! We've missed you around these parts! . Per the docs, Kirky called up his Dentist on the day they were heading to ATL (April 14th), and he asked his dentist for something to help with his tooth pain for a cracked tooth.

I was thinking about the pills that were found in Prince's room (Green Room) in his black bag--and, the fact that there were no other pills in his room, but they were scattered around in various other rooms in various bottles -- it just does not strike me at all as something Prince would do. Why would he have them out, in plain sight and not hidden? Usually an addict will hide everything. I mean, someone (i.e. Kirk) would have seen them, or at least the cleaning lady, or whatever. I just find it very odd.

Kirk had a cracked tooth and had an appointment with his dentist to get it fixed. He had to go to Atlanta with Prince and had to cancel at the last minute. He asked his dentist for a script for pain pills and she gave it to him. When the dentist found out about Moline she called Kirk cuz she was pissed about the pills she gave him. She advised Kirk to get him into rehab.

. Good Lord! Those people are incapable of doing any such thing! Sorry to sound so insensitive, but it's the truth!! I would not want any of these people working on my behalf or in-charge of getting me medical treatment!! No thanks! . What should have happened is Dr. Schulenberg should have grabbed the bull by the horn and said to Kirk: "Look, we gotta get Prince into treatment NOW!"" . If I was a doctor, that's what I would do -- otherwise, I would want nothing to do with it -- just not worth risking your career over. No.
I know. I can't believe the doctor was willing to take such a risk. I can only imagine his sense of dread when he showed up to PP that morning by coincidence seeing the police there. If I were him I would have felt like I was in deep shit right then, right there. [Edited 5/13/18 17:27pm] | |

Exactly!!! When detectives went dumpster diving after the weekend memorial service at PP the scripts to KJ were found. They... PEL,TN, KJ, MB and whoever else were smooth cleaning out PP in a sonic rush. I mean looking at the pics of the items found in the dumpster tore me up. They wasted no time throwing away his contacts, solution, shampoo, lotions, ect. Imma tell ya my mother has been gone for 3 years and there are still things that we have not and cannot go through even now. They were some cold blooded SOB's and that don't stand for short of breath!!!! Something else that is a bit confusing is that I found in looking at the pics in the Electronics Records, I figured out that I had to look at the date each pic was taken. Im separating them into 4/21-5/9 folder and 5/10-5/12 folder. In the first pics of PP it looks fairly well kept in most locations. In the pics taken when the feds went back, it was a mess from what appears that someone was going through each room and packing things up. Each room was photographed as they entered, so according to the pics it was a mess before the feds got there. An example of this would be say the conference room and P's office. In the first pics it was tidy but when the feds went back the pics show things piled all over the table, counters, and floor. I went through the list of "drugs" found at PP. I still get a bit confused about how they were scattered haphazardly and then there were the pills that were found in white plastic wrap in a jewelry box. If you put yourself "outside looking in", you would think that the person who lives there is a very health minded individual. There were bottles on end of vitamins and supplements. There was even natural male enhacement supplements. Looking in the fridge, you see a very healthy eater. 5 hours, gensing, ect. for energy. There were a few nasal sprays and every box (not in the trash) of enimas were opened which seemed strange to me. There were leaks early on that P had U47700 in his system at autopsy. From my research I found that this can be administered several ways. Snorting, orally, nasal spray, plugging. Now if I were a conspiracy theorist, I would say that someone could have spiked nasal spray, or used a small needle and spiked the Fleets. If he were using this of his own accord, most likely he would have used the nasal or plugging method as it is the path that is the least painful when mixed with water. It is said that the U47700 burns. It is just so hard to think that as much of a "perfectionist" Prince was that he didn't keep his meds straight. That just doesn't compute. I lost a very dear friend to an overdose. He was very picky about his pills. Maybe not so much everything else but he had his meds just so.

. You just have to shake your head at this stuff, because it is so unbelievable!! . Dr. Shulenberg has been Kirk's doctor a long time, so I'm sure he was well-aware of Kirk's association with Prince. . I do feel bad for Dr. Schulenberg and he said he didn't want to be a "celebrity" doctor.

Hey Clover if you have the 214 page file scroll down to the heading CONCERT HALL ROOM A2 GARBAGE CAN. Start with item #123. This was "After" the weekend memorial that was on that Saturday or Sunday. Evidentally it was thought the cops were long gone and no worries. Anyway, give it a look. It will twist your head!!

Pete I are not alone in thinking Laura contributed to the org. as others have replied in the past. Whether you like her or agree with what she brought, she was definitely here for Prince and that’s becoming a rare commodity. PennyPurple said:

I don't know about all that. I just re-read Judith's 57 page interview. She sounded pretty upset and much more forthcoming than I remembered.. In fact, the accounts of her behavior from EMT folks, hospital witnesses, etc, reveal a woman traumatized and worried by what was happening to Prince.
One other thing that struck me was that she stated that Kirk stated that getting P to see his doctor at all or even consider rehab was a real step for P. I think they were afraid if they came on too strong with the way they verbally addressed the issue, he would back out of it or disassociate himself from them (either through firing or just making new friends) . So, they had a "dinner'" with him, emailed frequently, kept tabs etc. They talked around Prince, addressed the issue with one another, but keep things vague when talking with him most of the time--except for making appointments and reminding hiim to go.. According to Judith, Prince (at one point) was telling Meron and Phaedra a different story about the plane landing and Judith had to inform them that he nearly died and it wasn't just a passed-out type scenario. This dude was secretive with those paid to turn their heads. Its probably hard to believe how compartmentalized that man was. But I truely think he kept a great deal of stuff to himself and it took either a total meltdown (like his running around naked after the percocet withdrawal in 2010) or a literal overdose to cue most people (except assistants or the people assigned the task of getting the drugs) into the extent of his problem (or that the problem had started back up again). Also, we have to remember that Kirk was in and out of P's life. He was mostly responsible for working on things outside of Paisley while he did his own things (with the bands he was involved with and his training classes). He had him multi-tasking like crazy. They had their friendly moments (P still had a greeding card from Kirk's family in his belongings) but I wouldn't say P was opening his heart to this man...which might have been Kirk's point when he stated that he wished he knew Prince better. For my piece of my mind (and I know people are going to disagree here), I think people "knew" he had a history with drugs, knew he wasn't feeling good, but I think there is good reason to believe that at some point he was cut off from the doctor's supplies of pills and he went his own way to get some. (if he had been cut off, one could have justified his illnesses etc as the symptoms of withdrawal, older age, and untreated pain issues--which is why he stopped playing guitar and dancing...after all, its reasonable for some folks to believe that had he been on pain pills, his hands wouldn't have hurt enough to stop the guitar playing) . I think he got the pills from some "friend" in Europe and paid for them with cash out of his little back bag. And some point, he might have started to worry about the strength of the pills and asked KJ to get him percocet. BTW, Kirk got P Dr. Stuhlbarg on the 7th and no drugs were prescribed I believe so he might have thought it was not necessarily drug releated.. Meron may have turned a blind eye to enemas and petty cash withdrawals because she was probably too busy working, stealing little stashes of money and thinking about herself to notice until it was too late. Kirk may or may not have provided percocet under his name at various points, but I do think he kept his enabling under a degree of control. Phaedra -- I have no idea what she did or did not do although she might be shady in terms of her WB influence and could be a little underhanded with money. But who knows. Judith probably romanticized their association but I do think she is mostly being honest but was just too chicken shit and under his spell to stay with him that week (I literally think he pushed her out the door to do damage control and keep working on this career of hers that he too was invested in.). I do know she kept calling in on him and checking in on him from LA for the next week however.. and seemed geniunely concerned. I wonder if these people knew the power they had to help Prince. and how dependent he was on them at that point.. I think he created such a environment of privacy and secrecy that they didn't know any other way to be around him.
As for the computer, had the cops let the lawyer stand there while they opened it, they would seen everything they needed. If the stuff in the computer was so damning, why didn't Kirk destroy files before they even called 9-11 to report an already dead prince. I think its possible they were just protecting his privacy (call me naive) and pretty much knew finding the dealer would be impossible because he knew too many damn people. Think about it. They asked judith who his friends and inner circle were (she responded with "that's complicated". She listed the people who saw him daily but also implied that people were always talking to Prince on tour, musicians were visiting PP, and he had an active emailing/pen-paling life.

Another thing that occured to me after reading Judith's interview, the cops asked who the could contact about P's personal life etc and she listed former assistants (including Kiran Sharma). When they talked to Kiran, she threw the current staff under the bus. BUt I do recall Prizedfight stating that Kiran had no room to talk. So perhaps, (I could be wrong), the current staff enabled less than the older staff who in turn assumed the current staff was doing the same things they were doing. Wasn't it one of the older staff members who said that P never carried anything for himself (well, we know that's not true now don't we?) MOrris said Prince usually didn't carry money to go shopping, but MOrris left in 2012 I believe. I guess what I am saying is that P was withdrawing in 2010 and had doctors getting him pills in 2012. But during this current staff, he had to get them illegally to attain them at all (other than 15 percocet and withdrawal drugs and a start at rehab). Interesting. Its like the older staff was saying that Prince didn't die on their watch so therefore since P died on the current staff's watch, they must be enabling worse than we were. Not sure if that was case. I have a feeling that folks are feeling guilty and defensive about mistakes they made.

Maybe the Valium that he took home with him because he felt Prince needed to be given those in a “supervised environment” | |

Michael had stuff in his bag as well. I think they might have been trying to ease him off. I don't think they were going to just give him some counterfit pills or percocet or something.

Another thing--they had no reason to believe that P was dead. Remember his hours, folks. He went to bed extremely late and sleep in to about 10. They made a few calls and probably did wait to wake him up, but for some reason since the doctor was there, they went looking for him (making instinctively thought they should get the ball rolling.) Yes, it was a health crisis but he made it for five days without dying and he was probably anxious the whole time and he had finally agreed to rehab at some point that week. I think they thought his head was in a better place (despite his anxiety) . THe withdrawal drugs were given on the 20th because that was when the appointment was scheduled with Shulbarg, I imagine.

One of the original appointments with Dr S took place at 6:45 am. If it was up to Prince, it would’ve been at 5:45 am, but Dr S was not comfortable giving fluids at PP, and requested they go to his office. On a normal day, it was stated that P didn’t start moving around until around 2 pm. Also, was there or wasn’t there an appointment for a holistic Dr around 10 am on 4/21? | |
