Michael Jackson's Dermatologist Questioned


Dr. Conrad Murray may've been convicted for his hand in Michael Jackson's death but the probe continues.

Following Murray's conviction for involuntary manslaughter in Jackon's death, Dr. Arnold Klein, The King of Pop's dermatologist, has been subpoenaed by the Medical Board of California, for allegations that he prescribed more Demerol than necessary to Jackson. Although Klein has yet to be accused of criminal conduct in connection to Jackson's 2009 death, he will have to appear for questioning on December 15.

The Medical Board, according to TMZ, aims to question Klein about claims that he self-prescribed narcotics, used false names on narcotic prescriptions, illegally handed out drug samples to famous patients and committed gross negligence by practicing while afflicted with multiple sclerosis. In a interesting twist, the dermatologist's lawyer Herbert L. Weinberg recently quit the case though no concrete reason has been announced.

During the trial of Dr. Conrad Murray, according to Rolling Stone, expert witness Dr. Robert Waldman claimed that Klein gave Jackson 900 milligrams of Demerol over a span of three days in May 2009. This action led to withdrawal symptoms like anxiety and insomnia, which Jackson tried to relieve with the ultimately lethal sedative Propofol. According to Dr. Waldman, Klein gave Jackson "stiff doses" of Demerol that were unnecessary for the singer's plastic surgery treatments.

Jackson’s dermatologist faces medical board hearing

Michael Jackson’s dermatologist Dr Arnold Klein has been subpoenaed by the Medical Board Of California to face various allegations made against him, some of which indirectly relate to his treatment of the late king of pop.

Although he has not been accused of any criminal conduct, according to TMZ, Klein will appear before the Board on 15 Dec to face questioning about various claims that have been made, including that he self-prescribed narcotics, used false names on narcotic prescriptions, illegally handed out drug samples to famous patients and committed gross negligence by practising while afflicted with multiple sclerosis.

As previously reported, Klein’s name was raised by the defence in the trial of Conrad Murray, the doctor found guilty of causing Jackson’s death by negligently administering the drug propofol as a cure for insomnia. Team Murray claimed that one of the reasons Jackson was suffering such bad insomnia was because, unbeknownst to Murray at the time, the singer had been receiving doses of the pain killer Demerol from Klein.

Although officially used as part of treatments being conducted by the dermatologist, the Murray defence argued that Klein was actually feeding Jackson’s addiction to the painkiller medication, and that the singer subsequently suffered withdrawal symptoms from the drug, resulting in insomnia. Which in turn resulted in his dependency on propofol, a dependency Murray then fed, albeit reluctantly if his lawyers are to be believed.

The judge hearing the Murray case said any allegations against Klein were not relevant to the former’s manslaughter trial, because there was no Demerol in Jackson’s system when he died, so Klein’s actions – whatever they may have been – were in no way linked to the singer’s demise. As such the Murray team’s allegations against Klein – part of an only hinted at theory that a number of doctors had been inappropriately feeding Jackson’s various addictions for years – were only touched on briefly during the doctor’s court hearing.
