Firefighter/Paramedic (I will refer to paramedics as Para) Richard Seneff (RS) is placed under oath and testifies
**DA WALGREN DIRECT EXAMINATION:

· Security people in dark suits escorted paramedics team inside home
· Paramedics team accompanying Seneff: Mark Goodwin, Martin Blunt, Brent Heron, Jeff Miller, Gary Burgandy, Bob Lamell (spelling is by phonetics only, Seneff did NOT spell these names out)
· Seneff was the first para to enter the home, to go upstairs
· The people display people’s exhibit 11 (bedroom photo- previously already marked for identification)
· RS saw CM when he walked into the bedroom standing by nightstand side of bed, reaching over the patient
· RS describes MJ as thin, pale patient, wearing pajamas with a night cap on
· RS says he saw CM attempting to move patient to the floor with NO one assisting. But RS eventually says that he doesn’t recall if the security present was actually helping to move MJ
· Yes, CM did intro himself as the patients doctor ( but the word cardiologist was not mentioned per RS)
· Did you observe medical equipment, heart monitor- RS only observed IV stand
· Yes, RS was trying to find out from CM what was going on, yes he started asking CM
· Yes, RS asked CM what was MJ’s underlying condition, 2x, but the first time CM did not answer at all and then upon RS second inquiry, CM said that there isn’t any (underlying condition)
· Yes RS DID pursue this line of questioning, as the DA asks him if he does because RS says it’s unusual for there to be a personal doctor with an IV stand plus MJ looked under weight, pale- RS thought MJ was a hospice patient
· RS asked again if there was an underlying condition and finally CM said dehydration
· RS asked CM if MJ was taking medication and CM said no, none
· But RS repeated question because RS said it didn’t add up- and eventually CM said yes, lorazapam (not clear on spelling because I don’t know..) and RS asked CM if that’s it? and CM said yes that’s it.
· Did CM ever tell you that he gave propofol to MJ, no never.
· Did you ask CM how long MJ was down like this? and CM answered it just happened this question was repeated and the same answer was given by CM
· RS indicates that para Heron helped with lifting MJ and indicated that MJ was cool to the touch
· MJ’s eyes were dry, no moisture left
· MJ was flatlined (asystoli), with very little EKG (electrical) heart activity with occasional blips, or PEA (pulses electrical activity- this is like your body’s own pacemaker trying to get things in the body going again)
· Is asystoli something that is congruent with just happened? no, per RS
· RS indicates that MJ’s hands and feet were blue, with no respiration; red blood cells not red anymore- all indications that TIME HAD ELAPSED, no oxygen flow.
· MJ’s pupils were dialated- no oxygen to that area
· In your opinion was the patient deceased? RS states- Yes, based on all the number of factors just described
· RS is asked to describe what life-saving efforts/activities were performed by himself and accompanying paramedic staff:
· Paramedic Blunt was securing airway, doing intubation
· Paramedic Heron doing chest compressions
· RS working on IV
· (there was another para working on hooking up elec monitoring equip of some sort but I missed the name and description)
· All of the above is occurring at the foot of the bed
· Were MJ’s pupils Blown, fully dialated? Yes, that’s what it was with MJ’s eyes
· Based on your (RS’s) 27 years of experience, how long has the patient been down? There are lots of variables RS mentions, but his gut feeling is that this did not just happen, some time had elapsed, with at least 20 minutes having gone by, not hours
· Yes, there was IV hooked up to left calf/leg area- it appeared to be a standard saline bag
· Epinephrine was administered to attempt to kick-start the heart
· Atropine was administered- a description of this takes the brakes off the heart to accelerate it but it uses a different route than the epinephrine.
· Yes, RS says compressions and provision of air via intubation continued
· RS mentions capnography: means to read the carbon dioxide (exhaled air/breath)- yes, this was utilized to determine how effective oxygen is being provided to the patient (MJ)
· Yes, the intubation performed very quickly, this is an answer per a question of the DA
· What was the capnography reading, but RS could not recall what it was without being able to reference his 902m- a medical services report that is created for each patient that they interact with (RS wrote this report)
· RS refreshed his memory by reviewing his 902m report and answered that MJ’s initial capnography number was ***16*** and RS indicated that the NORMAL RANGE numbers are 35 or 38 or 40
· — ——–stopped here for RS testimony and sent this portion to Bret.
· RS indicated that, at times, it increased to 26, meaning the ET tube (for intubation) was in the right place for getting good airway flow
· Court takes a break on 02:47pm
· Court resumes at 02:59pm
· RS acknowledges that he remains under oath
· Re: capnography- yes, it reached 26, to indicate good intubation of patient
· IV already in place was used for the atropine
· RS then described how that above-referenced IV, which was already on MJ- how it was modified to suit the paramedic’s needs (the current one was a needle system) and the paramedics use a needle-less system so they had to remove the saline lock, hub system. to use the current IV
· RS had to review his report to answer how many rounds of epinephrine and atropine: 2 rounds by that point
· No, the EKG did not change after the above-referenced rounds
· Yes, leg IV was compromised because the medical/starter kit was open, the defendant took out some meds, used IV port and injected some meds and he ended up pulling out the IV!!!!
· So RS had to start another IV as a result of CM compromising the IV
· Paramedic Mark Goodwin was trying to get IV in both of MJ’s arms too by inserting needle multiple times, multiple locations, puncturing.
· No, Mark Goodwin was not able to get a good IV in either arm
· Yes, at some point, RS got an IV in the left jugular
· Then additional rounds of atropine and epinephrine began and this is better (left jugular) because it’s a larger vein and a more direct route to the heart
· No, no results from the above-referenced rounds
· Did you ever feel a pulse? No. did any of the team indicate ever feeling a pulse? No
· Only CM claimed to feel a pulse, BUT RS is not sure WHERE CM said this, but later in testimony (about 1 minute) RS said CM said it was a femoral pulse but RS checked this and said felt nothing
· Yes, RS was in contact with UCLA Base Station at the hospital because paramedics are not doctors
· Yes, RS is relaying to UCLA all life-saving efforts/attempts made
· At 12:57pm, UCLA advised that all future attempts to review MJ would be futile, RS was asked this and RS said that he is not sure of the exact time but yes, 12:57pm is approximate time- (this is while MJ and paramedics are still in the home)
· After the above statement was made to RS, RS said we have a very high profile, VIP, and that they would be more comfortable at the hospital. Yes, RS did mention to UCLA that CM was present, and UCLA said to call it, and that CM said that he is not comfortable with calling it so CM insisted on going to the hospital, and UCLA asked if CM was willing to assume full care/responsibility of call, then at this point RS gave the phone to CM, CM assumed the call, and gave the phone back to RS, and then more atropine/epinephrine rounds started and CM had to accompany MJ in the ambulance since he had assumed full care/responsibility
· Yes, RS helped with getting MJ out of the house, RS described this activity, used a flat to get MJ downstairs, then placed MJ on a gurney that was already downstairs
· RS went back upstairs to retrieve any of their equipment
· Yes, RS saw CM in the room (upon returning upstairs), CM in the room by a nightstand holding bag, picking things up, but RS not sure what CM was picking up
· Upon your return upstairs, did you see any medical equipment, ventilator, other than paramedic equipment? RS indicates only seeing IV stand and oxygen tank
· Yes, RS accompanies MJ in the back of ambulance. RS is in back of ambulance with Michael’s head between his knees to ensure control/securing of intubation apparatus in MJ
· Paramedics Goodwin, Blunt, and CM are also in the same ambulance
· it was unbelievable to say the least, was RS’s answer to DA’s question about others following the ambulance, lots of people, vehicles.. it was just insane
· The DA is allowed to substitute the original people’s exhibit 18 with one that has no watermarks and this is allowed with no objections from the defense. The new one has RS’s written notes on it, including notation of the 12:57pm time that UCLA said call it
· RS’s written notes are on the new people’s exhibit 18, reflecting what CM had informed him about which meds (lorazapam), what underlying condition dehydration. (this is information from earlier testimony)
· Per handwritten notes, on the scene at 12:25pm, (these notes place on Elmo)
· 13:07 left for the hospital
· 13:13 arrival at UCLA
· No, MJ never changed from flatline, aystoli status. No pulse ever, no response to any reviving attempts while transporting
· Upon arrival, CM asked to cover MJ’s face with a towel
· Yes, RS told UCLA doctor of their (the paramedics’) efforts
· Did you see CM speaking on cell phone while in route in ambulance: yes, but RS didn’t know who it was
· RS described CM as spinning, nervous, moving around, hyperkinetic, multi-tasking at high rate of speed
tmj
No, CM still had never advised them of giving MJ propofol
· ***CROSS-EXAMINATION BY DEFENSE ATTORNEY LOWE***
· Attorney lowe starts to go on and on and on about the experiences that paramedics have to endure, going into what horrible things are encountered out there!! dead people, injuries, etc.,
· Yes, RS did ask if there was an advanced life directive (like a do not resuscitate clause)
· No, security did not give him a name upon paramedics arrival at MJ’s home, but describes an African-american man who said to RS (upon seeing RS) that somebody should do CPR as RS got out of the truck and then RS said to the security person who’d just said this: someone should start.
· Defense atty reviews what RS saw upon arrival in MJ’s bedroom
· No, RS did not see CM doing CPR, it was CM taking MJ by the shoulders to move him to the floor- (yes, MJ did make it to the floor and then a paramedic staff goes to help- I am noting this because so much testimony has not always been clear as to whether MJ was moved to the floor before the arrival of the paramedics or at the point of their arrival or if ever.)
· Defense atty reviews where RS saw the IV stand, which is said to have been about 1 foot away
· (RS notes that at the time all of this is happening, he did not know this was Michael Jackson, this was in response to Defense atty asking him if he knew.)
· Reviews what RS saw on MJ, how MJ looked- this is from previous testimony, he repeated it exactly the same
· RS repeated the opinion that MJ appeared to be a Hospice patient
· Defense atty quoted the date of July 1, 2009 regarding statement RS made that MJ was extremely ill-looking- the language RS used about MJ was more severe- that MJ looked terminally ill, like a cancer patient almost to the end (of his/her life)
· Defense atty asked if RS could recognize MJ, no. defense atty asked: before 06/25/0, had you ever seen a picture of MJ: yes. Did this person look like MJ? The people object, relevance: sustained, so RS did not answer
· Did CM tell RS he wanted MJ intubated when MJ had been moved to the floor? Yes
· No, RS can’t recall if there were any other drugs, recreations drugs involved– (why would he say the word involved? Did I hear that right??)
· Defense atty reviews RS’s testimony from direct examination by the people
· Now RS acknowledges that CM did say also exhaustion along with the dehydration issue mentioned as underlying condition
· No, the above statement wouldn’t initially change the course of treatment for cardiac arrest, but is important to know and helps explain underweight status of MJ
· Reviews airway clearing testimony re: capnography again
· Here RS says that compressions were started first as the ET tube (for intubation) was being prepared for intubation
· No, we did not defibrillator Michael because we didn’t see ?ventricular fibrillation defibrillator not appropriate for Michael (in MJ’s condition/state)
· Yes, bicarbonate was eventually used after epinephrine, atropine (RS indicates a total of 3 rounds of all this)
· Defense atty reviews testimony regarding RS calling UCLA Base Station- RS says patient becomes the UCLA Base Station patient once they call UCLA
· It becomes UCLA’s call (regarding care and decisions), with some discretion to the firefighters/paramedics if circumstances involve, for example, incineration, rigamortis, etc.,- in terms of the firefighters/paramedics being able to take the patient straight to the morgue versus directly to the hospital
· At approximately 04:15pm, court and counsel meet at sidebar on the record
· Court recesses the Prelim at 04:20pm
· To resume at 09:15am
· RS is administered standard witness admonishment re: do not speak to others (outside of case attorneys), and is ordered to return to court on 01/06/11 by 09:15am
