Debbie Rowe is set to testify that Michael Jackson was a hardcore drug abuse for decades, information that could severely damage the family’s lawsuit.
Sources say Rowe will take the stand Tuesday or Wednesday and will testify that in the 80’s and 90’s, MJ was abusing prescription drugs, but she had no idea it was so out of control.
Via TMZ:
…Rowe will point the finger at her former boss, MJ’s go-to doc, Arnie Klein. Rowe will testify she learned after the fact that Klein had a standing order … when Michael came to the office he should be injected with Demerol and Vistaril (which makes the Demoral stronger).
Rowe will say Michael kept the extent of his drug abuse a secret from her — something that will clearly help AEG, because the company is arguing it had no reason to know Michael was a drug abuser.
Rowe will say she saw Michael on TMZ coming out of Klein’s office days before he died — looking totally out of it. We’re told she will say she called Klein after Michael died and said, “What the f**k did you give him? He’s dead and it’s your fault.” She then hung up on him.
Rowe’s testimony will help AEG’s case because she’ll testify that she had no idea Michael was going to surgical offices specifically for the purpose of getting high and going to sleep. She’ll go on to say that she’s the only person in MJ’s world, including his family, that would tell him “NO.”
This testimony could be crucial to AEG’s case. If MJ could hide his drug abuse from those closest to him, then the company would have had no reason to believe there was a problem.
