" Ellen Ratner in want to go quickly guys to the phone did doctor Marc Siegel. Fox News medical contributor. Doctor Siegel are -- there. Big stakes semis doing good obviously the big story on Friday afternoon. This story is going to get a lot bigger because now we have. Dated Nicole Smith sort of scenario there appeared to be drugs involved a number of drugs were waiting on the LA corners. Announcements in and -- it but. He was surrounded by -- drugs are involved -- tell us what you know about that and and what you see happening in the story."
" Okay let me just say you know I was disturbed by the 9110. Which we now have a transcript which basically. -- the fact that there was a doctor on the premises. And the -- even said. I noticed -- the -- for humor but American instead there's a doctor on the premises that must -- MI have to tell you. The paramedic here in New York do not the first debate the I mean they've made that they've they've got to go what do you think the big big -- them make it has positioned the highly trade position is on the premise that. You know he has them on the bed he's not doing CPR on the floor which is what -- should have been doing. I don't know what he was doing there -- concerned you know talk about Anna Nicole Smith you know we don't know what it is yet but what what what -- with the minister a well you know."
" The other thing is that he was -- and it Zoloft condemn a wrong doctor Siegel. I mean that was his regular."
" Well well I don't -- to get not I mean that we don't know we know we don't know exactly what he was taking but where cheerleading I agree with which is that. This thing step at a cocktail here of sedatives and -- the president and narcotics they definitely don't go well together and back. This sedatives and the narcotics. Combined to depress respiration and breathing rapidly which is still to many of us -- leading. Possibly because of that but you know the autopsy initial autopsy report. Could be out and a half hour or so -- we that you love about that we don't think but of course. We discover that this coronary heart disease or my of course you are would you mind that the number one cause of sudden death in the United States is still. Either either hard damage or or -- over the heart so you know we're all focusing on the prescription drug -- issues. It is true that that several particular is very badly with other drugs that it. It really -- good more more side effects from drug interactions that quote the rapid heart rate. In this -- evident that the president could put television blood pressure without fear that a president could cause the lower blood pressure. It's associated with -- abnormal rhythms that can lead this that. Double not a happy -- but obviously more concerned with the idea that the cocktail itself could be. Combining. In a way that that. This is what we see most of the time one drugs suppress breathing. But the person tolerate that without realizing that it could take two victories together. You get a combined effects of that. Well most concerned about but again we can't believe the fact yet -- the fifty year old man under tremendous pressure. And there's a lot of people who have medical literature about the fact that acute stress can also lead to two the heart because it occurred so. You know these very -- he's anorexic in the mountain -- that he may have had an electoral item balance that also couldn't let that derivatives bolt it is still on the table. But I agree with what I don't think so far that certainly prescription drugs there front center."
" What kind of doctor is able to get away with prescribing these drugs we have out last on the strategy we had -- From Germany former manager for Michael Jackson. Who said that. For roughly twenty years up plus Michael Jackson had been on general or she -- she's had pain."
" Each of those -- acute medication it's supposed to be used. Or someone that just broke a leg -- just had surgery did not -- is no justification. Whatsoever. I don't know again you know indicated that this is. So here's cyclical look at the medical records as other committee they've put out there and I'll tell you why it's because the CEA cannot really. Either doesn't have the key to crack down on them what doesn't have the manpower -- talk about this about celebrities before this is not an isolated case it. This isn't able or situation is not an isolated case."
" Doctor had gotten it from Apple's system and -- well it's you know Ellen. Doctor -- refer -- that 911. Call and you're right he said no you have a doctor there man yes he's never find anything and now he's hours trying to figure anything did anyone witnessed what happened. Man now just a doctor the doctor was the only one there."
" That's something that I could find a little bit oh pretty good I want to focus on -- night won't uncle who could that the bit of hard evidence ago. I don't want."
" doctor -- 12 we have the audio of the 911 call let's roll that in order to back up."
" Yeah they've heard it yes -- need to I need that -- possible sure okay. 100 north so what -- about that -- would California. Nine due to equipment 76 year. I know -- tried yet. -- can't hear what opponents call it processor can't put up back at. Carol absolutely the hook government here that need help that didn't stop reading here. Do you have breeding that we need that were put on a -- but he's not you okay so okay outage. He's got fifty years old they're fifty okay. We've got partition operating yet he's upgrading their. Okay check back -- at cedars I don't know I can't put -- okay. I didn't play any corporate the F right now we don't look that dirty on the located on the floor. But it's okay that -- out tomorrow I have to CPR right now okay we don't you get -- beautiful when there. Well what do they have over the -- way -- him. Yet that we have a personal doctor -- Whitaker a doctor there. Yeah but he's not responding to anything -- noting that everybody is CPR anything at all okay but we're. Always there if you guys don't you -- struck by about this fire started at -- I witnessed what happened. Note that the dark picture -- video won here okay but the doctor happens. Doctor did you see what happens there. They didn't hurt either. Maybe countries you -- Why aren't we is is actually quite a run -- but -- sir thank future. You of these -- but he's not respond because they think that please -- We're back Holloway -- that you think it's that they're off because they just put."
" The only one fair doctor Siegel what do you make of that."
" You know I want to say that the group that I'm only gonna say that I hate to speculate. But I only want say this for the following reason I'm aware that were on this story toward or seven right now that may be the case. So large certain there's gonna wanna but I want to make a comment. That -- proved prophetic corporate it overstatement atomic bomb on want to want to see what kind of attention paid to this position and what he did so. Here's what I want you aware of speculation like everything -- something ominous situation where somebody's sick. I'm Angela Merkel and I -- want but the family so -- And I think that I think that. You know I have some concern. That he -- been hiding in the background or reason oh get out of control I don't want my name -- that this. That's pure speculation on my part but I don't like it either of them forward because he's the one in the best position to convey information paramedic. On the --"
" That fits your point of detection of speaking of that but that's Procter. -- that that Michael Jackson on the bid."
" You know I -- there's so if you look directly to be doing CPR I mean look it's. You know it. He's not. If you -- on the that it just not the best place to be doing --"
" I remember from high school CPR less -- worked well."
" Another question I have -- hard it is is is there a possibility that yes call 911 because he was doing CPR."
" That's -- very good point that we can that we can all say typically do about speculation. Okay. That. You know that's a very good point and it also is possible that he didn't take them off that they could that have the manpower to do. Well we're that he would have been doing CPR that the medical treatment do that but. Of course because. Been doing the deal with the phone it was -- helped there by someone else. He gives CPR he says that. You know. By the way takes about one minute for a position to give it thumbnail you know this is -- fifty year old man and cardiac arrest. He took XY and Z having an arrhythmia. Concerned that the immediately immediately if the current level waved it away and talk to a 911 operator took that position."
" Well when -- who we don't know who this mystery doctor is so he's obviously. On the -- will not wanting to be found they they tell discarded Texas license plate. Will be exhumed and out of the doctors even licensed to practice medicine at."
" Harder to find this guy by the way that part of what coroners do they have -- every medical professional in the city."
" And we will take the corners preparatory hearing. That that her parents coming. 13 set forth very -- gets canceled here about twelve minutes -- when it comes. -- You know larger point intently into -- to -- that your your ex wife -- Michael Jackson but that is what is it about. These dollars and so it's. Talent in the tip of their pinkie finger that album that never happened in my lifetime in they turn into these absolutely self. Destructive. Beings."
" We've been covering and so different ways I gotta say we don't know much. As you know. There it is we it'll. We don't go well he -- Leo again nobody knows -- true the true I -- That we see -- we did debate about that we thought -- That is the answer your question I think something happens to let alone -- either lower life. A group that even doctors who by the way doctors do an awful lot of -- And if you. And look. Or as such our country music. Reaching. That point -- And of course. -- oh so it. Clearly. There was some degree of psychological. Issues. Oh -- this entire situation and probably weighs in probably was well."
" Doctor Marc Siegel Fox News medical interpreter had that -- and they're busy on Friday afternoon thanks so much. And please tell take speculators have did you learn anything I would like to get it out a group. --"
