and as harvey levin has found out so far. the issue of percocet is a real issue because it's a narcotic drug just like morphine or just like heroin, similar effects. it's legal to be prescribed by physician. you are going to want to know which physician has been prescribing it. and it doesn't go away by itself. if the handlers had kept him in the hospital, he wouldn't have died when he can. >> when he left of the hospital against medical advice. >> right. >> mark, listen, i don't have a lot of experience with pain medication but i did give birth to three children. i know when they offer you percocet it's very regulated. they don't just give you refills on that. the police are definitely going to be talking to his doctor. >> right. >> well, you know, megyn, when you are talking about percocet. you are talking about a prescription drug that's as strong as heroin. but you know exactly because the milligram of the tablet exactly what it's going to do. so you can actually increase the effects of the drug proportionally. now, when

if it's true what they height is that harvey levin said he found he has been taking percocet since 2010, then he is addicted to percocet. after a few weeks -- oxycodone is the active ingredient together with tylenol in percocet, and oxycodone is a prescription opiate, opiode, that causes the most deaths in this country. it's the most widely used oxycontin, as oklahoma si co don't, percocet, all -- oxycodone, percocet, are stronger than morphine. so, what harvey levin is saying makes sense, but we don't know it until the toxicology reports are released which could be three days or three weeks or three months depending on what the sheriff wants to do with it. >> doctor, we know he was in great physical pain help had hip and joint pain, and wouldn't know it from recent concerts in atlanta when he was there, that was a sitting down concert, piano, limited his movements. some people maybe overinterpret that or analyzed that. don't know. but do you every -- do you get a sense that percocet alone, if you are dependent on it and you start overdosing on it, that doesn't get to the issue. the iss

levin seems to have found out. now, today -- now the autopsy should be finished, and they know if he had any natural disease. they know if he had pneumonia, they know if he had heart disease or brain hemorrhage, all these innocent things that cause death would be able to be determined just from the regular autopsy. if so, they could release that and say he died of natural death. but if they don't have any natural disease, then they have to wait for the toxicology which takes a few days. not two weeks. but normally the police, the sheriff, the district attorney, like to wait before they release the final information. but they'll know by tuesday or wednesday whether he died of an overdose of percocet, as some people say. >> speaking of harvey levin from tmz, here is what he was able to find out according to him, this is what happened. >> they made the emergency landing because of radio calls indicating that he may have had a drug overdose and that they -- it was so serious that they gave him treatment at the airport

. >> let's fact check this thing, man to covered the trial from beginning toned, harvey levins out there in the "tmz" studios, harvey, welcome back to philadelphia here, that's true, he did ask how she was killed. >> it is absolutely true. everything that they portrayed in that closing argument is true. it is factual. and johnnie cochran's pretty factual, too. i mean, again there is was something that was chronicled as well as anything that -- anything that has ever been reported. so, yes, of coast that's true. the bigger issues to me are these. that i think, look, i thought the series was great. but i think they needed a hero to make this story compelling on television, as a dam tis agents. and they made marcia clark the hero. marcia clark was very committed, work very hard, made a lot of mist takes, but the reality i think is that there were absolutely no heroes in that treatment i covered t nobody was a hero. you know, what johnny -- listen, i loved johnnie cochran. he was a friends. i have problems with what he did. i also know he could read a jury better than anybody i ever met. did

." >> reporter: curiously, tmz's harvey levin says because no private room was available, prince left the hospital after just three hours, and flew home. it was because of the flu. that never made sense to us because with the flu you tough it out for 48 minutes so you can get home and you're comfortable rather than in some strange city. >> reporter: however, the next day, after returning to minneapolis, prince tweeted out this flyer, announcing a dance party that very night at paisley park.

dari: tmz executive producer harvey levin joins us now with you all have been way out there ahead of everybody else. what do you know? >> well, we know that the police got a search warrant to look at -- to go into and search his home in paisley park and it is very interesting. what we're being told is this is a broad search for all sorts of things, including medical information, doctors and pharmacy names, drugs, correspondence, prescriptions, and what is really interesting is they don't want this made public. they said to the judge, please seal the reasons for this because we're afraid if it gets released, it's going to compromise the investigation and it would cause other searches to become unsuccessful. to me what that means is everything we've seen is they are on the trail of percocet prescriptions and they don't want doctors and pharmacies tampering with or taking evidence out of the various places of business. the way it is and the judge said we will keep that secret. steve: it's interesting. it's going to be hard to preserve the crime scene when it's inside the compounds meant

dari: tmz's harvey levin is here to tell us more about the backstory behind this. this incident that happened yesterday and this morning is all the buzz. people are shocked and trying to figure it out. please shed some light. >> it is all the buzz everywhere. i don't know -- where to start. she was livid. she was ballistic when she found out. what happened was we know that she found out yesterday at 10:30 in the morning at the same time disney was telling the world michael strahan sat down with her and the ep and broke the news to them. they had absolutely no idea. she felt betrayed by disney because they never gave her a heads-up. she's angry at michael even though the ceo of disney ordered michael not to tell anybody, she may be out more thanust today. were told yesterday that it is likely she' be out for days as a result -- that's the way she felt yesterday. the big news to me, and i didn't realizthis, they don't get along. dari: i read that on your site. >> they do not get along. she feels that he has kind of en tbe big for his britches, walking around with an

steve: tmz executive producer harvey levin with the struggle to sort out his affairs. everything about the past week, regarding what we're learning about prince, seems so contrary to how he was viewed prior to his death. >> yes, but, i mean, there are a lot of very famous, brilliant musicians who are not good businessmen. and prince is among them, for sure. and i'll start with the fact that we are told even though people advised him that you need a will, we are told as far as anybody knows, he doesn't have one. we've talked to professionals who worked with him through 2014. there was no evidence of a will. no will has come forward. siblings. under minnesota law, each would be entitled to 1/8 of his estate. two died. presumably the six would be the ones to share. it doesn't matter whether they're full or half siblings. under minnesota law, they're considered the same. it would go to them. steve: it's interesting how hard he fought to get properly compensated for his music, his battle are the record label -- jennifer: it's so smart. but personally -- steve: to not tie up

steve: harvey levin joins us with more on what happened. this whole thing is so crazy. he was someone who was never associated with drugs or alcohol, especially coming of age in the '80s, going through that whole thing. it seems so out of left field. >> well, out of left field in terms of public persona, but a lot of times people manage their public persona and it's very so it was with prince, we're told, in various ways. i will tell you this, that the story we got when we broke that story a week ago, that he made that emergency landing where his people said it was the flu, we are told by multiple people in illinois not true at all, that what happened was that he had oded on percocet. it was so life-threatening, they literally couldn't wait to get him to the hospital, that they administered the save shot right at the airport. it was really dire. now, that doesn't mean that he died from percocet six days later, but what we were told by authorities we've talked to in minnesota, that they are looking at building blocks here until the actual toxicology comes in. and when yo

harvey levin spoke to us a short time ago. >> we know that the sheriff's office where prince died is going to get in touch with the authorities in illinois where prince made an emergency landing last friday to find out what it was that caused him to go to the hospital. his reps, when we broke the story, told us he had a bad case of the flu. honestly, that never made sense to us because he was flying home from atlanta after doing two concerts. he only had 48 minutes to go on the flight. it seemed weird to us at the time and not what we had heard he would go to the hospital, make an emergency landing, for flu symptoms. we had heard it was much worse than that, that he was in bad shape, and he has been making multiple trips to the pharmacy over the last couple of weeks as well. so it seems like there is something much more chronic, whether this is a disease or something that's self-inflicted, we can't tell you. but it does seem like it was much worse than the flu. steve: joining us now, rob shooter. jen: a lot of questions as to, you know, why this happened, how it happened. the family'

harvey levin goes "on the record" from los angeles. it was shocking when tmz broke that news today. >> shocking to us too, greta. i will tell you. this i want to go back to what you just said about the flu. that story does not make sense. and i'm going to tell you as much as i can right now. we're working on a story that i think we are very close to putting up that i think will give you some context. but, let me tell you the back story of what is not making sense. we broke a story last friday that prince had performed in atlanta. he did fine there. his voice was great. he looked fine. got in an airplane to go back home to minnesota. 48 minutes before the plane was scheduled to land, the plane made an emergency landing in molene, illinois. he was rushed by hospital to the ambulance, taken to the emergency room, and three hours later for some reason then released and went back home. now, his people told us it was the flu. it is weird that somebody who seemed perfectly fine on stage had gone through a whole set an hour and a half later is
