Officials say it could be weeks before it's known what caused the death of Michael Jackson.
An autopsy is being done Friday, but the assistant chief coroner for Los Angeles County says there's not much chance his office will have anything to release Friday. He says it could be six to eight weeks before results of toxicology tests are in.
Lt. Ed Winter says the autopsy is being conducted "as we do any other exam."
One of the things the experts will try to determine is whether whether prescription drugs were a factor in Jackson's death.
Family friend and former Jackson attorney Brian Oxman says he was concerned about Jackson's use of painkillers and warned his family about possible abuse.
Jackson was pronounced dead at UCLA Medical Center Thursday after collapsing at his rented home in Los Angeles.

You know... This picture also happens to be one of the most iconic images of Michael Jackson ever. Just about everybody anywhere will recognize it... So stop fussing.
i agree, very immature, i thought adults worked at this station. MJ has 3 very distraught children right now, things like this are uncalled for from anyone.
