Dr. Richelle Cooper, an emergency room doctor testified that Jackson was “clinically dead” when he arrived. “He did not have a pulse… he had signs of a dying heart,” she told attorneys according to WCIT12.
The doctor admitted to the court that based on the information she was given about Jackson that she felt it appropriate to call a time of death, despite allowing Dr. Murray to “assume control” and allow him to continue to try to resuscitate Jackson.
