The autopsy report, located within the 51-page document, released publicly on Monday, confirms that “Acute Propofol Intoxication” was the cause of Jackson’s death. The coroner’s office determined the death was homicide based on four factors:
“Circumstances indicate that propofol and the benzodiazepines were administered by another.
“The propofol was administered in a non-hospital setting without any appropriate medical indication.
“The standard of care for administering propofol was not met… Recommended equipment for patient monitoring, precision dosing, and resuscitation was not present.
“The circumstances do not support self-administration of propofol.”
A “Benozidzepine effect” was also listed as being related to the cause of death.
According to lab analysis, traces of the following drugs were found in Jackson’s system:
- Lidocaine
- Lorazepam
- Propofol
- Lidocaine
- Diazepam
- Midazolam
