Jackson’s assistant says Murray asked him for ride back to mansion to remove bleaching cream

Michael Jackson’s personal assistant took the witness stand on the second day of Conrad Murray’s involuntary manslaughter trial in Los Angeles.

Michael Amir Williams testified that Jackson’s former doctor called him frantically on the morning of August 25, 2009 begging him to send help for Jackson, who lay dying in the bedroom of a rented Holmby Hill mansion.

“He said, ‘Get here right away, Mr. Jackson had a bad reaction. Get somebody up here immediately,”’ Williams said.

Williams testified that he called Jackson’s bodyguard, Alberto Alvarez, who was outside, and told him to get up to the 2nd floor bedroom to check on Jackson.

Williams said Jackson had previously given strict orders that only Jackson and the children were allowed on the 2nd floor of the mansion.

“I told [Alvarez], ‘I don’t know what’s going on, but you have to go inside the house,’” said Williams. “I remember him walking, and I said, ‘Are you there, yet.’ He said, ‘No.’ I said, ‘Well run, hurry.‘”
