Skin Whitening Creams Discovered In Michael Jackson's Home

A new report by the AP has revealed new details into certain medical items obtained from investigators after the death of Michael Jackson last June.

Not only were 11 vials of propofol, the powerful sedative that killed Jackson, found, but close to 30 tubes of skin-whitening creams such as hydroquinone and Benoquin as well. 

The creams were most likely used to treat Jackson's vitiligo, a disease that causes patches of skin to lose pigmentation. While the validity of Jackson's claims of having the disease have long been subject of speculation, the medical examiner who performed the autopsy on Jackson said his skin showed symptoms of vitiligo. 

Conrad Murray, Jackson's personal physician, is currently waiting to stand trial in connection to the singer's death. Murray has pleaded not guilty to the charge of involuntary manslaughter.
