During opening statements Tuesday in the trial of Dr. Conrad Murray, the prosecution played a shocking voice recording made by Murray of Michael Jackson in which the superstar singer was heard slowly slurring his words and lethargically talking about his tour.

The voice recording, made with Dr. Murray’s iPhone on May 10, 2009, was presented by prosecutor David Walgren to the jury in the Los Angeles courtroom. He played only a clip of the recording, saying that the entire tape will be played during the trial and said that it showed what Dr. Murray “is doing to Michael Jackson.”

Walgren said the recording documents Michael Jackson “highly under the influence of unknown agents with Dr. Murray sitting nearby.”

The recording played of Michael Jackson said:

“We have to be phenomenal. When people leave this show, when people leave my show, I want them to say, “I’ve never seen nothing like this in my life. Go. Go. I’ve never seen nothing like this. Go. It’s Amazing. He’s the greatest entertainer in the world.”  I’m taking that money, a million children, children’s hospital, the biggest in the world, Michael Jackson’s Children’s Hospital.”
