Even though there is currently no evidence of any foul play whatsoever, the LAPD has initiated a homicide investigation.
Meanwhile, Michael Jackson’s former publicist, Michael Levine, has released a statement saying that he believes the cause of death to be “prolonged stress”. According to him, “Michael has been on an impossibly difficult and often self-destructive journey for years. A human simply can not withstand this level of prolonged stress.”
Reporters are currently camped outside of UCLA Medical Center, awaiting a press conference concerning the death.
An autopsy has been scheduled for tomorrow.
