A central figure in the Prince death investigation is the superstar’s longtime friend and right-hand man, who had a cameo in the movie “Purple Rain.”

According to a search warrant, detectives interviewed Kirk A. Johnson — a former Prince drummer and current manager of the singer’s Paisley Park estate — following the performer’s unexpected death last month.

The court document, obtained by the Los Angeles Times, discloses that police seized Prince Rogers Nelson’s medical records from a Minneapolis-area hospital in early May. Investigators were particularly interested in files involving a family-medicine doctor who had treated Prince in the weeks before the singer was found dead April 21 in a Paisley Park elevator....

Johnson, who oversaw Prince’s sprawling studios and home in Chanhassen, Minn., and was described by the Minneapolis Star Tribune as Prince’s de facto bodyguard, has hired Minneapolis criminal defense attorney F. Clayton Tyler. Johnson hasn’t spoken publicly about Prince’s death, and Yahoo News messages to him weren’t returned. Johnson is also a personal trainer at Life Time Fitness in Chanhassen but hasn’t been to the gym since Prince’s passing, the AP reports.

1. SOMEONE MUST BE BLAMED

A finger must be pointed.

If he had a refillable prescription big enough to kill him, I think the blame will fall on his doctor - like it did with MJ.
