Witnesses: Conrad Murray Didn't Mention Propofol

Los Angeles - Two paramedics and an emergency room doctor who treated Michael Jackson before he was pronounced dead testified today that the singer's personal physician never mentioned that he had given him the powerful sedative propofol.

Firefighter/paramedic Richard Senneff testified that Dr. Conrad Murray -- who is on trial for involuntary manslaughter for Jackson's June 25, 2009, death from acute propofol intoxication -- told him that he had only given Jackson "a little bit of Lorazepam" to help him sleep.

Another firefighter/paramedic, Martin Blount, told the Los Angeles Superior Court jury that Murray did not mention giving either Lidocaine or propofol to Jackson, but said he saw three open bottles of Lidocaine -- an anti-arrhythmic medication and local anesthetic -- on the floor of Jackson's bedroom, where paramedics responded in response to a 911 call. The bottles were eventually "scooped up" by Murray, who put them in a black bag, he said.

A third prosecution witness, Dr. Richelle Cooper, said she quizzed Murray on what medication Jackson had been taking when he was brought to the emergency room at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center just before 1:15 p.m. that day. Murray said he had given Lorazepam to Jackson through an IV and then given him a second dose of the drug.

Jackson's personal physician informed her that Jackson also took Valium and Flomax, Cooper said.

The emergency room doctor said she had authorized paramedics to pronounce Jackson dead at his rented Holmby Hills home at 12:57 p.m. after they had unsuccessfully tried for about a half-hour to revive him. Murray was asked to accompany Jackson and paramedics to the hospital after saying that he wanted life-saving efforts to continue, Cooper said.

"He was clinically dead," she said of Jackson upon his arrival at the hospital. "He did not have a pulse."

Fourteen people, including nurses and doctors, were on hand as the hospital staff initially tried to revive Jackson, with additional doctors later being consulted, Cooper said.

The emergency room doctor -- who is due back in court Monday to continue her testimony -- said Murray told her that Jackson had been "working very long hours," but that the singer had not been ill.

Senneff, who has more than two decades of experience, said he found Murray's claim that the patient had no medical problems odd, since a doctor, IV stand and oxygen tank were in Jackson's bedroom.

"Simply that did not add up to me," Senneff said.

He said the doctor told him that he was treating Jackson for dehydration and exhaustion.

"That's all?" Deputy District Attorney Deborah Brazil asked.

"That's all," Senneff responded.

Murray "never mentioned the word propofol," he said.

Senneff said Murray was "frantic" when paramedics arrived, and had to be asked three times if the patient had an underlying medical condition.

"He said there is none," Senneff said.

The paramedic said he asked Murray how long ago Jackson had stopped breathing.

Murray told him "It just happened right when I called you," Senneff testified, noting that the 911 call was received at 12:22 p.m. and paramedics were at the home by 12:26 p.m.

"It meant to me that this was a patient ... we had a really good chance of saving," Senneff said. " ... It definitely relates to the timing. If he called us right when we got the call ... it means we're going to have really good chance of restarting the heart, if that's the issue."

But Senneff said after observing the patient and running some tests, it became clear that Jackson had not been breathing for a much longer time.

"There were multiple observations," he said. "When I first moved the patient, his skin was very cool to the touch. When I took a first glance at him, his eyes were open, they were dry and his pupils were dilated. When I hooked up the EKG machine, there was a flatline ... "

Senneff also said paramedics were unable to locate a vein in Jackson's arm, an indication that his blood had not been circulating.

Paramedics gave the singer two rounds of drugs designed to restart his heart, but there was no improvement in his condition, he said.

"There was no change in the patient's status," Senneff said.

Senneff said he was in contact with a base station at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, which eventually advised him to stop efforts to revive Jackson.

Murray, however, told paramedics that he felt a pulse, even though paramedics could not detect one.

Senneff said he saw Murray with a bag in his hand, picking up items from the floor near a nightstand as paramedics were preparing to take Jackson to the hospital. Murray then joined them downstairs at the ambulance, where another round of drugs was given to try to restart the singer's heart, the paramedic said.

Senneff said there was no change in Jackson's condition between the time paramedics arrived at the singer's home and his arrival at the hospital at 1:13 p.m.

"Did you ever see any sign of life in Mr. Jackson ...?" the prosecutor asked.

"No,
