Michael Jackson's Autopsy Thursday 13th January, 9.00pm on Discovery Channel (UK)
Global premiere based on the official coroner record, court documents and press reports, this unique documentary dramatises Michael Jackson's autopsy to discover the truth about his untimely demise in 2009. Independent pathologist, Dr Michael Hunter, performs a full autopsy on an anatomically correct synthetic cadaver, including a dissection of artificial organs. This film tells the real story behind the medical myths that surrounded Jackson throughout his troubled life - his drug addiction, his vitiligo and other disorders. With an exclusive testimony from one of Jackson’s long time personal physicians, Discovery Channel unravels the complex series of events that led to a relatively healthy 50 year old man dying unnecessarily.
