DRAMATIC new details of the desperate battle to save Michael Jackson's life are revealed today after the News of the World unearthed a photograph of his DEATHBED.
The photo - taken by a family insider the day after Jacko died at his rented mansion in North Carolwood Drive, Los Angeles - has been published in the printed edition of the News of the World. It shows the aftermath of the frantic struggle to revive him.
The photo shows where the King of Pop's personal physician Dr Conrad Murray spent up to 25 minutes trying to resuscitate him - first on the bed, then on the rug-covered wooden floor - after the star was taken ill.
There have been many conflicting stories surrounding Jacko's final hours on June 25.
But last night Los Angeles County Coroner Lieutenant Fred Corral confirmed to us: "That IS the scene where Michael Jackson died."
It is pictured EXACTLY as detectives found it after paramedics rushed Jacko to the UCLA Medical Center where he was officially pronounced dead at 2.26pm.
Nothing has been touched or moved from the second-floor bedroom, thought to be used by Dr Murray to store medical supplies.
The room - suprisingly tidy after such drama - was sealed off and deemed a potential murder scene by the authorities.
Every key detail revealed in the picture has been pored over by specialist investigators. There on the floor at the bottom of the bed is a used AMBU BAG - a manual pump device used by medics to force air through a mask and into the lungs to keep an unconscious patient alive.
This was part of Dr Murray's kit and the INSTRUCTION LEAFLET is alongside.
The see-through curl of plastic tubing linking the bag and mask appears to have collected pools of liquid. Parts of the tube have a red or brown discolouration.
This is likely to be the result of expelled moisture in the breath and evidence the device HAS been used.
On a wheeled trolley to the left of the photo (which we are not publishing online but which is available in our printed edition) is more medical equipment.
ALCOHOL PREPARATION PADS used for cleaning the skin before drug injections, a roll of SURGICAL TAPE and a box of disposable LATEX GLOVES. On the bedside table is a large landline PHONE. It isn't known if this is the one used by bodyguard Alberto Alvarez to dial 911 when his boss failed to respond to Murray's efforts.
Abandoned on the bed is a string of Middle Eastern-style PRAYER BEADS, worn by Jackson around his neck and clearly visible in our picture.
"There's a mystery around who gave them to Michael but he loved to wear them," said our insider.
Bizarrely, what looks just like an INCONTINENCE PAD sits in the centre of the bed, possibly covering blood or other stains. The length of blue ribbon alongside is believed to have been used as a MAKESHIFT TOURNIQUET, to bind the star's arm and find a vein so drugs could be administered. The duvet is pulled to one side and, incredibly, there is still a slight DENT made by dying Jacko's head in the plumped-up pillow, up against the ornate gold-painted headboard.
Oddly, a tube of Crest TOOTHPASTE lies apparently unopened on the bed. An insider said this had no relevance to the resuscitation, but Jacko, 50, was obsessed with dental hygiene and had tubes of the stuff all over the house.
On the side table is also a half-drunk bottle of ORANGE. The insider told us: "It was MJ's. He was trying to stay healthy."
On the shelf above there's a near-full bottle of FIJI MINERAL WATER, the fashionable brand favoured by celebrities. Another almost-empty bottle is on the glass-topped trolley nearby. Almost hidden under the duvet you can see the legs of a TOY DOLL that usually sat on top of the bed.
Alongside is a DVD or CD. Back on the bedside table sits a SPECTACLES CASE. Both the star and Dr Murray wore glasses but our source said: "Jacko had many pairs, and their cases, lying about all over the house."
Out of view of the camera, according to our insider, are oxygen bottles used to treat the star as part of his heavy-duty prescription drugs regime.
Sources close to the investigation have said police also found Diprivan (often known as propofol), a powerful sedative used as an anaesthetic, at the house.
Medical professionals and the technical literature clearly state that Diprivan, which is not for home use, should always be administered with oxygen.

African tribe buries Jacko :: News :: Daily Star: Simply The Best 7 Days A Week
Daily Star: Simply The Best 7 Days A Week :: News :: African tribe buries JackoAFRICAN TRIBE BURIES JACKO
ABOVE: Michael JacksonMICHAEL Jackson has been “buried” by an African tribe who believe the star was a god with magic powers.
The Anyi people, based in Ivory Coast, have worshipped Jacko since he visited them in 1992.
They crowned him Prince Michael Amalaman Anohin to make him their king-in-waiting and believed he would eventually base himself in their homeland to rule over them.
Tribal leaders went to the American Embassy after Jacko died to demand his body was sent to them, but their request was turned down.
They put his spirit to rest at the weekend in a funeral-style ceremony on a football pitch in front of thousands of grief-stricken mourners.
The service was held in the village of Krindjabo, in the Sanwi Kingdom, where people travelled from miles around to see his spirit laid to rest.
The Anyi people insist Jacko’s presence has watched over them since his visit 17 years ago, when he went to Africa to “sound out the architecture of my DNA”.
Chieftains are still hopeful his body will be moved so they can carry out a traditional river burial.
Tribesman Emmanuel Kassy Kofi said: “If the Americans or his family permitted us to bring the body here, we’d do what needs to be done.
“It was Michael himself who tested his DNA, found this is where he came from and said it’d be good to find his family.”
Meanwhile, a photo of Jacko’s deathbed shows what appears to be a giant nappy on his mattress.
He possibly wore the incontinence pad as a result of the strong drugs he used to sleep.
Jacko was addicted to pain-killers and police are working on the theory he used coma-inducing Propofol.
Le médecin de Michael Jackson était fauché avant de le rencontrer
Le médecin de Michael Jackson était fauché avant de le rencontrer
On vient d'apprendre que Conrad Murray, le médecin personnel de Michael Jackson et principal suspect dans la mort de celui-ci, était dans une situation financière peu enviable quand il a croisé la route du King.
Fauché comme les blés et il avait des dettes à gauche à droite pour un montant d'environ 500 000€. Des dettes incluant des pensions alimentaires pour ses 6 enfants ainsi que des retards de paiements pour de l'équipement médical.
Autant dire que quand il a rencontré Michael Jackson, son sang n'a fait qu'un tour et il a tout de suite vu le magot qu'il allait se faire sur le dos du chanteur.
Hypocondriaque et dépendant, Michael Jackson avait besoin d'un médecin constamment à ses côtés. Pour l'argent, le Dr Conrad Murray est devenu le savant fou du King of Pop.
Rien n'était trop bon pour le chanteur qui était prêt à payer des ordonnances et des médicaments au prix fort.
Pire, les organisateurs des concerts de L'O2 Arena étaient disposés à payer à prix d'or le médecin qui parviendrait à refaire monter Michael sur scène le Jour J et pendant 50 dates.
En pleine débâcle financière, le Dr Murray n'a pas pu refuser une telle opportunité. Acculé par ses dettes, il était en manque de liquidités. Ses comptes étaient débiteurs, il ne payait plus son crédit immobilier d'un montant de 1,6 millions de dollars.
En 1992, il était même en faillite personnelle. Heureusement, la poule aux œufs d'or qu'est Michael Jackson était là pour arranger ses problèmes.
Mais, maintenant qu'il l'a peut-être tué, sa source de revenus s'est envolée et les ennuis ne font que commencer.
La cupidité d'un homme valait-elle la vie du grand Michael Jackson ?
