SURPRISE! DEA TACTICAL DIVERSION SQUAD SEARCH SAYS DEA Violet Szeleczky - FOR MORE BREAKING MJ DRUG NEWS FOLLOW NICHOPOULOUZO HERE: http://twitter.com/mrjyn Wednesday, 22 Jul 2009
July 22: The DEA and Los Angeles police have searched the Houston office of Dr. Conrad Murray for evidence of possible manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson. In a statement on his site late Tuesday, Chernoff said investigators from the Los Angeles County coroner’s office have asked for medical records in addition to those already provided by Murray. Although Chernoff has said the doctor didn’t give the pop star any drugs that contributed to his death, Murray has nonetheless received attention from those angry over the singer’s death. “Dr. Murray was the last doctor standing when Michael Jackson died and it seems all the fury is directed toward him,” Chernoff said. “Dr. Murray is frustrated by negative and often erroneous media reports, he has to walk around 24-7 with a bodyguard. He can’t go to work because he is harassed no matter where he goes.”

DEA agents target Jackson doc's office
July 22: The Houston office of Dr. Conrad Murray, who was Michael Jackson's personal physician, has been searched by agents from the DEA. MSNBC's Alex Witt and msnbc.com's Courtney Hazlett report.
Officials to meet with Jackson doctor again
July 22: Investigators in California are seeking another meeting with the doctor who was with Michael Jackson when he died. They also want to see more of the late pop star’s medical records,
HOUSTON - Authorities searched the Houston clinic of Michael Jackson’s doctor Wednesday, and his attorney said they were seeking evidence of manslaughter.
Dr. Conrad Murray had been interviewed by police as a witness to the pop star’s death, but has not been considered a suspect. Police have said little about the probe, neither confirming or denying the possibility of criminal charges.
Los Angeles police and agents with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration went through the Armstrong Medical Clinic on Wednesday for about 2 1/2 hours. Authorities said they were searching for documents.
“The search warrant authorized law enforcement to search for and seize items, including documents, they believed constituted evidence of the offense of manslaughter,” Ed Chernoff, Murray’s attorney, said in a statement posted on his law firm’s Web site. The Harris County warrant remains sealed and unavailable to the media.
Chernoff said agents left with “a forensic image” of a computer hard drive and 21 documents.
Houston police surrounded the building as the investigators went inside at about 10:30 CDT. DEA spokeswoman Violet Szeleczky said about 20 people were in the Armstrong Medical Clinic, including employees.
A neighborhood crowd gathered to watch the raid until agents left after 1 p.m. and Houston police told reporters and the onlookers to leave the clinic’s property.
Murray has emerged as a central figure in the investigation into Jackson’s death. The doctor, who had been recently hired by Jackson, was with him in his mansion and tried to revive him.
Szeleczky said the agents were looking for Murray’s records, not drugs, but wouldn’t specify further. She declined to say how the search related to Jackson’s death.
Doctor has 24-7 bodyguard
Meanwhile, investigators in California are also sought more information from Murray, according to Chernoff.
July 22: The DEA and Los Angeles police have searched the Houston office of Dr. Conrad Murray for evidence of possible manslaughter in the death of Michael Jackson. NBC's Janet Shamlian reports.
In a statement on his site late Tuesday, Chernoff said investigators from the Los Angeles County coroner’s office have asked for medical records in addition to those already provided by Murray.
“The coroner wants to clear up the cause of death; we share that goal,” Chernoff said in his statement. “Based on Dr. Murray’s minute-by-minute and item-by-item description of Michael Jackson’s last days, he should not be a target of criminal charges.”
Although Chernoff has said the doctor didn’t give the pop star any drugs that contributed to his death, Murray has nonetheless received attention from those angry over the singer’s death.
“Dr. Murray was the last doctor standing when Michael Jackson died and it seems all the fury is directed toward him,” Chernoff said. “Dr. Murray is frustrated by negative and often erroneous media reports, he has to walk around 24-7 with a bodyguard. He can’t operate his practice. He can’t go to work because he is harassed no matter where he goes.”
It’s still not known what caused Jackson’s death at age 50. The pop star went into cardiac arrest in his bedroom and Murray performed CPR while an ambulance was called, according to Murray’s lawyers.
Investigators have found the powerful anesthetic propofol in Jackson’s home, according to a person with knowledge of the investigation. The person is not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity. The officials are working with the Drug Enforcement Administration and California attorney general’s office to determine how the medications got there.
Police detectives have already spoken to Murray twice — once immediately after the singer’s death and again two days later. Police investigators say Murray is cooperating in their investigation. The Las Vegas-based doctor is also licensed in California, Nevada and Texas.
Chernoff’s spokeswoman, said the interview with coroner’s investigators might happen Friday. Murray is currently in Las Vegas and Chernoff would be speaking to investigators without the doctor being present.
There was no sign of activity Wednesday at Murray’s medical offices in Las Vegas. Doors were locked and curtains drawn at his practice, Global Cardiovascular Associates.
There was no immediate record of a search warrant for Murray’s medical office or his Las Vegas home, said Esther McElhaney, a Las Vegas court spokeswoman.
But she said police would have 10 days to provide a report to a judge in Las Vegas Justice Court about any items or documents seized if they had searched either location recently.
The DEA has assisted in probes into other celebrity deaths, including the 2007 overdose death of Anna Nicole Smith as well as that of actor Heath Ledger.
Jean Rosenbluth, a University of Southern California law professor, says the agency’s involvement in the Jackson case suggests authorities are looking into whether drugs came from out of state.
Federal drug regulations include controls over whether and how frequently a doctor can write prescriptions over the phone, and DEA agents could be looking to see if these rules were broken, Rosenbluth said.

UPDATE DEA - LAPD Search Jackson Dr. 'Con' Office (Wed. 22 Jul - 12:32 PM)

Police Seize 'La Dolce Vita' Cafe for Mob Ties By THE ASSOCIATED PRESSPublished: July 22, 2009Filed at 12:23 p.m. ET
ROME (AP) -- Italian authorities on Wednesday seized about euro200 million ($284 million) in assets and businesses owned by a crime syndicate, including the Cafe de Paris of ''La Dolce Vita'' movie fame.
Rome police and anti-mafia officials said that 12 other restaurants, apartments and luxury cars allegedly linked to the 'ndrangheta were also impounded in the operation.
The Cafe de Paris, which became a symbol of La Dolce Vita, or ''the sweet life,'' in the 1960s remains open, Rome police official Daniele Galimberti said.
Galimberti said the establishment was briefly shut early Wednesday, but only to allow police to search it.
''We wanted to check how much money there was in the cash register and seize the account books,'' Galimberti said, adding that authorities have appointed a manager to let the cafe stay open for the time being.
''It's important to guarantee its activity for all those chefs, waiters and other personnel who are working there,'' he said.
The restaurant, with a covered outdoor area, is located on Rome's upscale Via Veneto, the setting of glitzy nights that were immortalized by Federico Fellini's 1960 movie.
The cafe -- a famed haunt of movie stars, directors and hopeful ingenues in the 1950s -- is a few steps from the U.S. Embassy compound. Palestinian militants wounded 38 people in a grenade attack on the cafe in 1985.
Galimberti said a court hearing will be scheduled within 30 days to decide on how long the cafe will remain open.
He said the establishment belonged to a former hairdresser from the southern region of Calabria who is suspected of having ties to reputed 'ndrangheta (pronounced AN-dran-getta) local boss Vincenzo Alvaro.
Anti-mafia prosecutors say mobsters are snapping up real estate in high-rent Rome neighborhoods.
The 'ndrangheta, based in Calabria, has eclipsed other mob organizations in power and reach.
Prosecutors have said mob groups are increasingly investing profits from the drug trade and other illicit activities in legitimate businesses and property, including restaurants, stores and hotels, in northern Italy and abroad.

Bouillabaisse: Fish Head, Balloons and Gloves, Well Steeped in Bach and Elvis By GIA KOURLASPublished: July 21, 2009Pilobolus Dance Theater, the company formed in 1971 and named after a genus of fungi, has changed drastically over the years in terms of artistic makeup. Lately the group, which opened its third program of the current season on Monday night at the Joyce Theater, has looked to outside choreographers in an effort to ignite creative sparks. In the case of “2b,” a New York premiere by the Israeli artistic team of Inbal Pinto and Avshalom Pollak, the flame could do with more fanning.
An arid work full of vague imagery and set to music by Bach, Tom Waits and Elvis Presley, “2b” features a surreal cast of characters. There are various skirmishes involving a man (Andrew Herro), a fisherman initially seen tangled inside a cluster of black balloons; a figure dressed in blue (Matt Del Rosario) wearing a fish head; a woman (Annika Sheaff) who skulks around the stage on demipoint wearing red tights and long red gloves; and another man (Jun Kuribayashi) who emerges from behind a miniature door.
Yoann Tivoli’s lighting casts the stage in night shadows — or perhaps the depths of the ocean. After Ms. Sheaff, entering the stage from behind the tiny doorway, pops the balloons, one by excruciating one, Mr. Herro collapses flat on his back. It’s hard to say for sure what’s happening within this murky atmosphere — the tale seems to involve a fisherman who is outsmarted by a fish — but it’s just like the sort of dream you have after devouring an anchovy pizza before bed.
The program features another dubious glimpse into the dark side — Jonathan Wolken’s 2008 “Razor: Mirror,” in which five dancers are transformed into nasty characters from a scrappy freak show.
The works holding more allure, however, are those relying less on hollow theatrical conceits than on the dancers’ invincible, acrobatic flair. In Mr. Wolken’s 1973 “Pseudopodia,” Mr. Kuribayashi flips across the stage like a mercurial wonder.
In “Symbiosis,” choreographed by Michael Tracy in 2001, Jenny Mendez and Jeffrey Huang grasp onto each other as if they were a sculptural force of slowly mutating muscle and bone. But both of these forays into pure movement are minor compared with “Day Two,” which dates to 1980. Directed by Moses Pendleton, a Pilobolus founder and now the leader of Momix, a company that deftly merges acrobatics and illusion, “Day Two” nails the point in which fantasy meets potent muscularity. In this work, the dancers — four men and two women wearing only dance belts and thongs — are a compelling blend of power and vulnerability as their movement shifts from low primal hops to fluttering hands held above their heads to resemble wings.
Within these earthy notes are sensuality and playfulness; gradually, the stage begins to buckle and the dancers are swallowed up underneath it. There are more surprises ahead — water is a key ingredient — but nothing is as indelible as the way the work creates shapes and stories out of flesh.
Pilobolus Dance Theater continues through Aug. 8 at the Joyce Theater, 175 Eighth Avenue, at 19th Street, Chelsea; (212) 242-0800 or joyce.org.
