(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Michael Jackson's children were in tears when their father was found unresponsive, a court heard yesterday.
The second day of testimony in the trial against Dr. Conrad Murray heard how two of the late singer's children handled the news that they're father was in serious trouble.
Jackson's head of security, Faheem Muhammed, told the Los Angeles Superior Court that Prince Michael, 12 at the time, and Paris, then 11, stood in the doorway of their father's bedroom crying as their dad's physician tried to resuscitate him.
The pop icon died of acute Propofol intoxication two years ago and Murray has been charged with his involuntary manslaughter. The doctor is on trial and has denied the allegations.
Muhammed testified that Paris was "on the ground, balled up and crying" and her brother was "shocked and slowly crying".
The bodyguard said that he ushered the two young children from the room during the traumatic time.
"I took them to a more secure location where they couldn't see what was going on," he told the court.
He added that Jackson looked like he was already dead as his "eyes were open and his mouth was slightly open" and that Murray looked "nervous" and was "sweating".
Jackson's personal assistant Michael Amir Williams also took to the stand and told the jury how he drove the children to the hospital in a vehicle behind the ambulance carrying their father.
Williams said that after Jackson had been pronounced dead on June 25 2009, Murray wanted to go back to the late singer's house "to get rid of a cream that the world should never see".
But Jackson's security team blocked him from returning to the Holmby Hills mansion.
The trial continues today and is expected to last five to six weeks. (C) Cover Media
