Add Marijuana to the List

As if Michael Jackson wasn't using enough drugs, you can throw the Devil's Lettuce in there too. According to AFP:

Michael Jackson's relatives told authorities they had found tar heroin at his rented mansion after he died two months ago, in what turned out to be rotting marijuana, court documents showed.

During an investigation into the King of Pop's sudden death, family members notified the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office "they had located a quantity of tar heroin in a baggy in the decedent's bedroom," according to a search warrant affidavit unsealed on Thursday.

But lab tests showed that the alleged heroin was in fact mouldy marijuana, the Los Angeles Times said, citing sources close to the investigation.

According to the affidavit, investigators found that police seized two bags of marijuana, empty bottles of the sedatives lorazepam and diazepam, other prescription drugs and a bag with a medical label sporting the name of the singer's doctor, Conrad Murray.

If they could gather all of Michael's drugs up, this would surely give the country free health care for a couple of months. That place makes Rite-Aid seem like one of those weird machines in public restrooms that sell Advil and condoms. But anyway, given everything that has come to light about MJ in the past month, how the hell did he survive this long? Probably magic or something.
