Those weren’t his last words, however. He had time to talk to his son after this and to a Princeton colleague. Then in the morning, he said his actual last words. He delivered them in German, and then he died. The nurse attending to him, Albert Rozsel, didn’t speak German. She couldn’t understand the words or write them down, and so none of us have any idea what he said before he took his final breaths.

Michael Jackson Died Delirious and Desperate
Jackson was the victim of homicide. Maybe you missed the news, or forgot it, but yes, the coroner formally declared his death a homicide (or regicide, technically). He died from drugs, and a doctor gave him those drugs. Dr. Conrad Murray was convicted and spent two years in prison for manslaughter, along with losing his medical license.
Murray was at Jackson’s bedside as he died. According to Murray, Jackson’s last words were repeated requests for “milk.” “Milk” was his name for propofol, the anesthetic he overdosed on. Propofol does look like milk, and it’s nicknamed “milk of amnesia.” Picture Jackson deliriously ask for milk, though, and you think of his baby mind, as well as his addiction.
much between here and when he died, right?
Since Murray later went on trial for Jackson’s death, you might question his reliability regarding Jackson’s last words. Keep in mind, however, that the trial wasn’t about whether Jackson wanted propofol. It was about whether Murray was guilty for giving what his patient requested, and whether he administered it properly. Murray also recorded some of Jackson’s words on his iPhone: “Just make me sleep; it doesn’t matter what happens,” Jackson directed.
