AceShowbiz - The man who called 911 after finding Prince's unresponsive body finally spoke up about the shocking event. He chronicled every single moment leading up to the discovery of the late singer's body at his house at Paisley Park in Minnesota.
It's Andrew Kornfeld, a practice consultant at the rehab center Recovery Without Walls, who made the call. Speaking through William Mauzy, a Minneapolis attorney working with him, Andrew revealed that he was contacted to meet the music icon at his home on Thursday morning, April 21.
He said that he arrived at Prince's mansion at around 9:30 A.M. in the morning and met the singer's staff, who was unable to find him. A moment later, two of Prince's employees "screamed" when they found Prince's body in an elevator. They "were in too much shock" to make the 911 call, so, Andrew decided to contact 911 himself.
In the transcript from the emergency call, Andrew said, "The person is dead here," before adding, "and the people are just distraught." He just said, "We're at Prince's house" when asked about the address.
In other news by TMZ, Andrew was said to bring a backpack containing synthetic opiates. He was sent to Prince's house because his father Dr. Howard Kornfeld, who was contacted by Prince's crew to treat him, wasn't able to make the visit. However, his lawyer insisted that Andrew did not supply Prince with any drugs, although he did have synthetic opiates in his backpack.
