A new updated news has been brought forth by Life and Style concerning the cause of Michael Jackson's death. The publication claims a source close to the late music performer has confirmed that he consumed a cocktail of up to seven prescription drugs in the past few months which might cause him suffering cardiac arrest that then led to his death on Thursday, June 25.
Among the prescription medications that he consumed were anti-anxiety drugs Xanax, Zoloft and painkiller Demerol, says the source. It is suspected that Michael took an overdose of those drugs on Thursday morning, which led to his suspected respiratory and cardiac arrest.
Brian Oxman, lawyer for the Jacksons, chimes in that Michael might have had trouble with prescription drugs as he was preparing for his upcoming London show. "This was something which I feared and something which I warned about," Brian is quoted as telling CNN. "I can tell you for sure that this is something I warned about. Where there is smoke there is fire."
Worse, Brian also compares Michael to late Anna Nicole Smith, who passed away in February 2007 due to accidental drugs overdose. Brian alleges that Michael had 'enablers' just like her.
