It is an item surely no Michael Jackson fan would want to see, let alone own. But a blood-stained IV drip used to administer drugs from Jackson's bedroom during his final days alive is going to be auctioned off by some of his family.

In a shocking decision, his cousin Marsha Stewart has put the item up for sale alongside other items in what appears to be an attempt to cash in and drain every last bit of income from the global singing star. Las Vegas' Memorabilia Expert team hopes to get at least $2500 for the fluid bag, which was used by Jackson and administered by Doctor Conrad Murray in June 2009 during his daily drug intakes of Propofol.
