Before Prince died, doctor’s son taught drug users to surf

Andrew Kornfeld’s red-eye flight to bring a prescription drug to Prince has been described by his attorney as a “lifesaving mission” to persuade the superstar to start treatment for addiction.

Instead, the 26-year-old Californian found Prince collapsed in an elevator, the attorney said.

Neither Andrew Kornfeld nor his father, an addiction and pain doctor, has been accused of wrongdoing. But a law enforcement official said on Friday investigators want to interview both of them about the drug that was never administered to Prince.

In college, younger Kornfeld’s studies in neuroscience sparked a fascination with consciousness and psychedelic drugs such as LSD.

Jim Fadiman, a psychologist who popularized the notion of using micro-doses of LSD to enhance workplace productivity, considers him “a brilliant man.”

Kornfeld’s father sent his son to Prince’s home, a decision that has raised questions about whether the doctor was acting legally.

Since his connection with Prince became known, the younger Kornfeld has been stalked by celebrity photographers and has avoided talking publicly about the musician’s death.

Andrew Kornfeld’s social media accounts show him smiling with a surfboard and list him as CEO of a Bay Area marketing company for health professionals. A University of California-Santa Cruz spokesman confirmed he graduated in 2013 with bachelor’s degrees in psychology and neuroscience.

But perhaps the most intriguing detail about Kornfeld is his connection with Fadiman, author of “The Psychedelic Explorer’s Guide,” which collects stories of people experimenting with LSD, including professionals who took a fraction of a dose and reported boosts in creativity at work.

Fadiman and Kornfeld co-authored a chapter, which lauds LSD’s potential for out-of-body experiences and “spontaneous healing” from allergies, cluster headaches and alcoholism.
