The dermatologist for plenty of stars in Hollywood, Dr. Arnold Klein, was best friends with Michael Jackson and also injected the singer with drugs. Klein now has a warrant out for his arrest, according to an exclusive story from TMZ.
Klein has struggled since Jackson passed away, with multiple stories reaching the media abouthis downfall. Klein injected Jackson multiple times with the drug known as Demerol in the months leading up to his death. When he would prescribe Jackson medicine he would use a variety of different aliases for Jackson.
Klein has since filed for bankruptcy and has failed to hand over more than 100 pieces of expensive artwork. He also has not handed over a 2001 Ferrari Spider to the trustee on the bankruptcy case. U.S. Marshals have been ordered by the judge on the case to arrest Klein and send him to federal prison until he turns in the artwork and the sports car.
Some of the artwork that he has to turn in features the work of Andy Warhol (with a portrait of Marilyn Monroe), David Hockney, Robert Graham, Claes Oldenburg, Roy Lichtenstein, Rodin, Renoir, and Toulouse-Lautrec.
Klein told TMZ the following, “It’s bulls**t, it’s fraud. Have them come arrest me.”
