Officers investigating the singer's death took video footage - seen by Mirror Online - when they found his body.
The haunting images have now been released to the media.In these stills, which we have blurred to avoid causing any distress to readers, the 57-year-old's body lies on top of a rug outside the doors to the elevator at his home in Paisley Park, Minnesota.
The singer, who stood at 5ft 2inch tall, was found unresponsive on April 21, 2016.
The videos show the scene that investigators documented inside Paisley Park after Prince was found dead of a drug overdose.
They do not have any audio but show an investigator with a video camera panning the estate to show the death scene.
Prince is shown on his back next to a sun design in the carpet. His head us on the floor, eyes closed, right hand on his stomach, and left arm on the floor. The walls are decorated with several albums, depictions of Prince and other memorabilia.
At least one Prince fan says she doesn’t believe he got justice when a Minnesota prosecutor announced that no criminal charges would be filed in the musician’s accidental overdose death two years ago.
Thirty-nine-year-old Kimberlee Andrus of Austin, Minnesota, attended the news conference Thursday where Carver County Attorney Mark Metz made the announcement. The prosecutor said investigators were unable to determine who supplied the counterfeit opioid drugs that killed Prince.
