Michael Jackson Legs Photos Show Signs Of Vitiligo & Needle Marks
Exclusive photos of Michael Jackson’s legs that were taken in 2002 were analyzed by specialists for ABC News. The photos below show a serious wound, which seems like necrosis, surrounded by unusual needle punctures on Michael’s right leg. It is also clear from the depigmentation of Michael’s skin that he did indeed suffer from Vitiligo.
“On the photographs of Michael Jackson, it looks like there was necrosis on his lower leg where there might have been fluid that went into his lower leg,” Dr. Debra Jaliman, a leading dermatologist and spokeswoman for the American Academy of Dermatology, told ABC News.
“It looks like there are multiple puncture points from IV placement. If, in fact, he had an IV here, and the IV fluid, which may have been acidic fluid, went into his skin, it might may have, in fact, destroyed the skin,” she said. “That’s all dead skin that would then make an ulceration underneath that skin.”
“If you look at his lower leg you can see puncture points here, so it looks like there was a needle entry here, possibly a needle entry here on his leg,” she told ABC News.
“In 22 years of training, I’ve never seen an IV placed in the legs. You would put, you know, IVs in hands, arms, but oftentimes in my training when I have dealt with people who didn’t have veins anymore in their hands or arms, you look for veins that you can use and sometimes you have to look in other areas of the body,” Jaliman said.
A close source to the King of Pop, Marc Shaffel said Michael was dangerously addicted to Demerol, Oxycontin and a dangerous cocktail of several other opioid drugs. A Demerol overdose was initially suspected as the cause of death.

These pictures are NOT new! They’ve been on the internet for years. I knew he had Vitiligo and he said himself he had it numerous times. Also, that scar was after he was bitten by a spider..and it looks like its been altered. It wasnt that dark. It’s sad that people are only now trying to understand him after he’s GONE! Its a shame what the media did to him…he was an angel.
ditto. I also heard that it was an insect bite. All these new ‘facts’ are coming out, and MJ can’t even defend himself.
RIP MJ
I agree with you 100,000.00 times. I have always believe in Michael, he was good and loving. I only wish Michael knew how much we all loved him. For every negative thing that was said about him, their were millions that knew his kindiness and his heart. My heart was crushed to learn the sad news of his passing. I have always stuck up for him when I heard anyone say anything bad about him, I will defend him till the end. You people are so evil may God have mercy on your souls.
Looks like this sore might be mersa or a bad spider bite. For those people who want to believe that Michael Jackson was shooting up drugs, this was the plan of those that murdered him. Firgure they have the media on their side with this false story of Michael. Too bad so many people believe this about him. I think not, Michael Jackson was a good man, fabulous singer, loved life as we all do and cared alot about his family. Usually drug users have no respect for others, think again if you believe this! Compare the drug users you know, do they love and respect people like Michael Jackson? I THINK NOT!
So talentous,so brilliant,so young to die this way…the very old novel that we know well…Elvis,Carmen Miranda,Marilyn Monroe,Jimmy Hendrix…the problem is the people who surround them,they have their psycological fragilities abused by agents,”doctors”,managers and so on…vampires…do the family and (real)friends guilty in some way? maybe…May his soul rest in peace.
Could this maybe be CRPS=Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome causing these leg issues? It is a rare syndrome that not many people have even heard of but it can cause these “sores”. Celine Dion has announced she has it, as I do. It it the worst pain a person can go through and causes the need for the strong narcotics which in turn can and does cause dependecy on them because it has me, too. Dr. Debra Jaliman that gave her diagnosis might should reconsider her answer to ABC. THOSE OF US WITH CRPS (SOMETIMES ALSO REFERRED TO AS RSD) COULD SURE USE THE EXPOSURE OF EDUCATING THE PUBLIC ABOUT IT.
These are old pics from 2003
and was an infected recluse spider bite
The recent Drs assessing it was from drug injections
are paid tabloid quacks .. the marks are vitiligo blotches ..
Anything anything
anything for the money
the lie for it, die for it
even sell my soul to the devil
Michael Jackson
IV’s in the legs are not new. As a Sickle Cell patient, I, myself, have been told that w/ frequent hospitalizations, the veins in my arms have collapsed, so placing an IV in the leg can be an alternative. It’s just that having this procedure done is usually for inpatient hospital stays only.
Even the best people in the world get hooked on drugs. Nobody is saying that Michael wasn’t an angel, but he was an angel with a problem. God rest his soul.
To me i really love MJ no matter the negative things they said about him i have him somewhere in my heart his a good and lovely singer, i due love him because he is a human being like me & you you see what all ways kills some of the great legends today is the people that stays around them i called them agents,”doctors”,managers and so on…they are all vampires to My Michael Jackson, rest in perfect peace and may the lord of heavens forgive and accept your soul.
