A paramedic is the first witness to testify in a wrongful death lawsuit filed by Michael Jackson’s mother against concert giant AEG Live.
Paramedic Richard Senneff took the witness stand on Tuesday.
He had attempted to revive the pop star after becoming one of the first people to respond to his home in 2009.
Senneff testified twice in previous criminal proceedings against Conrad Murray, the former physician who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in Jackson’s death.
Jackson’s mother, Katherine Jackson, left the courtroom during the testimony.
She is suing AEG, claiming it failed to properly investigate Murray before allowing him to serve as her son’s tour doctor.
AEG has denied any wrongdoing.
Jackson’s praise for his mother brought tears to her eyes, a tender moment on Monday, when her superstar son was repeatedly called an addict by lawyers on both sides of her lawsuit against concert giant AEG Live.
Jurors listening to opening statements were given a brief tour of Jackson’s life through photos of him with his children and videos of his performances. While Jackson’s song, “You Are My Life,” filled the courtroom, jurors watched footage of a Christmas morning when he gave his children a dog.
