The medical examiner who performed the autopsy on Michael Jackson said that Michael was too weak to be able to administer drugs to himself so he was unable to cause the overdose by himself.
Medical examiner Christopher Rogers made this statement in the witness stand, as he was called to testify in the trial of Dr. Conrad Murray.
Rogers’ testimony is opposed to the theory of the defense according to which Michael Jackson caused the overdose by himself.
Rogers’ testimony was accompanied by the projection of a shocking photo: a photo of Michael Jackson’s dead body, on the autopsy table, with his genitals covered by a black strip.
Michael’s mother, Katherine Jackson, and one of his sisters – Rebbie – the only members of the Jackson family who attended the trial – left the courtroom before Rogers testified.
