Schulenberg “appeared on the death scene” at Paisley Park on April 21 – the day Prince’s body was discovered in an elevator at the compound in Chanhassen, Minnesota.

April 20 – Prince is seen by Schulenberg again, according to the warrant.
After In Touch revealed that the untimely death of music legend Prince is under federal investigation, TMZ reports Dr. Michael Schulenberg – who is allegedly being investigated for writing prescriptions for the singer – has abruptly left his medical practice.
The police also conducted another search of the pop star’s Minneapolis home and seized medical records from the hospital where Schulenberg worked, it shows. According to a search warrant, Prince Rogers Nelson was supposed to fill a prescription at Walgreens, though it remains unclear whether he had a chance to do so before he died.

The warrant authorized the search and seizure of Princes medical records at North Memorial Medical Center in Robbinsdale.
A Minnesota doctor questioned by investigators in Prince’s death is an experienced family care physician who until recently worked for a Twin Cities health care system. The warrant documents didn’t specify what medications were prescribed or whether Prince took them.
Our sources caution there could be other doctors who prescribed meds for Prince outside the Minnesota area… but so far nothing’s come up.
Schulenberg’s lawyer would not comment on the situation.
As previously reported, Prince’s team had reached out to Dr. Howard Kornfeld, a national authority on opioid addiction based in California.

Lesa Bader, a spokeswoman for the North Memorial Health Care system, told the Los Angeles Times that Schulenberg no longer works for the centre. Andrew was among three people at Paisley Park when Prince was found unresponsive, and he called 911.
