Michael Jackson Was Bald, Bruised And Full Of Pills And Needle Wounds At The Time Of His Death

Even more details have emerged about Michael Jackson's condition at the time of his death, and The Sun reports that the singer was "a virtual skeleton" and his hips, thighs and shoulders were covered with needle wounds, believed to be the result of injections of narcotic painkillers, given three times a day for years.
The Sun claims that the reportedly anorexic Jackson had been eating just one small meal a day, and pathologists found his stomach empty aside from the partially-dissolved pills he took before the lethal painkiller injection that stopped his heart. Jackson's bald head was covered up with a wig when he died, and the pop legend also suffered several broken ribs as rescuers pumped his chest after he suffered cardiac arrest. Four injection sites were found above or near to his heart, which are believed to be attempts to pump adrenaline directly into the organ in a failed attempt to restart it.
The Sun also reports that the autopsy also found unexplained bruising on Jackson’s knees and on the fronts of both shins, as well as cuts on his back, indicating a recent fall. Not surprisingly, Jackson's face was covered in plastic surgery scars, and right side of his nose was partially collapsed. Sources also added that prescriptions for drugs for patients other than Jackson were found at his home, and those patients will be questioned by the authorities.
A source close to the Jackson entourage told The Sun:
- "Michael’s family and fans will be horrified when they realise the appalling state he was in. He was skin and bone, his hair had fallen out and had been eating nothing but pills when he died. Injection marks all over his body and the disfigurement caused by years of plastic surgery show he’d been in terminal decline for years. His doctors and the hangers-on stood by as he self-destructed. Somebody is going to have to pay."
UPDATE:
The Los Angeles County Coroner's Office insists that The Sun's reporting is "totally false." Assistant Chief Ed Winter released the following statement:
"The report that is being published did not come from our office. I don't know where that information came from, or who that information came from. It is not accurate. Some of it is totally false."
This is Anna Nicole Smith all over again...maybe worse?
