Michael Jackson appeared terminally ill with 'blue hands, feet and lips' when paramedics arrived in his bedroom the day he died By Associated Press Reporter and Daily Mail Reporter A paramedic who discovered Michael Jackson dead in his bedroom nearly four years ago told a jury on Tuesday that the King of Pop appeared to have been dead at least an hour when he arrived on the scene. Jackson's blue hands, feet and lips, and the singer's dry eyes all signaled to paramedic Richard Senneff that the singer was dead and hadn't been breathing for a long time. 'To me, he looked like someone who was at the end stage of a long disease process,' Senneff said Tuesday during his testimony in the civil case between Michael Jackson's mother and concert giant AEG Live. Trial: A paramedic who discovered Michael Jackson dead in his bedroom told a jury on Tuesday that the King of Pop appeared to have been dead at least an hour when he arrived on the scene Senneff also recalled how Jackson's doctor, Conrad Murray, was frantically trying to revive the singer. 'He was pale, he was sweaty,' the paramedic said of Murray. He was very busy. Murray claimed he was treating Jackson for dehydration and he never mentioned propofol, the hospital-grade anesthetic that killed the singer, Senneff said. He told the panel that he found an IV pole, oxygen tanks and a nightstand with several medicine bottles. In the nearly four years since his death, nearly every aspect of Jackson's life has been explored in court proceedings, documentaries, books and news stories. Still, the negligence case filed by his mother against AEG promises to deliver the most detailed account of the singer's addiction struggles, including testimony from his ex-wife Debbie Rowe about treatments involving the anesthetic propofol dating back to the 1990s. Michael Jackson's mother Katherine Jackson leaves the sentencing hearing of Dr. Conrad Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the death of pop star Michael Jackson Jackson died from a propofol overdose in 2009 while preparing for a series of comeback concerts at AEG's O2 Arena in London. Katherine Jackson contends AEG didn't properly investigate Murray, the doctor who later administered the fatal dose. The company denies wrongdoing. During opening statements, attorneys framed Jackson's prescription drug addiction through the prism of his superstar status. Attorney Brian Panish, who represents Katherine Jackson, said the drug problems worsened when the pop star was under the stress of live performances. AEG attorney Marvin S. Putnam countered that Jackson's stardom provided a cover to receive multiple, secret medical treatments, many involving propofol. At one point in the proceedings, the harsh portrayal of Jackson's struggle with addiction, led one juror to lean forward and stare at the floor for several moments. Doctor in question: Paramedic Richard Senneff recalled how Jackson's doctor, Conrad Murray, (pictured) was frantically trying to revive the singer Katherine Jackson and two of the superstar's children, Prince and Paris, are potential witnesses whose testimony will likely focus heavily on their grieving and losses. On Monday, Panish played a song Jackson wrote for his children as a montage of photos played during opening statements. He also read a handwritten note from Jackson that his mother framed and has hanging on her wall. 'The only way you can assess damages, is to know what they had,' Panish said before reading the letter and playing 'You Are My Life.' Katherine Jackson dabbed her eyes with a tissue. On Tuesday, she left the courtroom while the paramedic described her son's condition on the day he died. It may be several days before jurors get another look at Jackson's softer side. Family: The late Michael Jackson's brother Randy Jackson arrives at court on the second day of the trial pitting Katherine Jackson, mother of the late singer Michael, against concert promoters AEG Live The trial will also feature testimony on Jackson's troubled finances, with debts that reached nearly $400 million by the time he died. AEG contends the debts made him desperate to have a successful concert series. 'The private Michael Jackson was like a lot of American in the 2000s, spending a lot more than he was making,' Putnam told the jury after describing the singer's lavish Neverland Ranch, his art collection and other spending. Many other private moments from the singer's life will be exposed as the case progresses over the next several months, with witnesses expected to testify about secret medical treatments, lavish spending and tender moments spent with his mother and children.
