Thread Number Two
Same here, Liz.... what a whitewash. Tiger said no evidence of criminality the afternoon ANS was taken to the hospitall it seems to me he never strayed from that path.
I thought her first husbands name is Billy Wayne Smith. I believe that I had read that Daniel was named after the Biblical Daniel.
Daniel Wayne Smith (January 22, 1986 September 10, 2006) was the son of the late American model and actress Anna Nicole Smith, by her first husband, Billy Smith.

Billy Wayne Smith is her 1st husband and father of Daniel.
Ok...Yes, the HRH report says that the meds were in the guest room. I believe it only listed the Tamiflu as being in ANS room. I don't know what the brown liquid was in Anna's room.
However, are we to then believe that she got up and was ok in the morning, took no more meds, but died with in an hour or two? Wouldn't it seem that the bigger risk would have been the night before when she would have more recently taken the concoction of drugs and the concentration of each would have been greater?
Sorry...just so many questions as I am trying to make sense of what we are supposed to believe.
Yes, description of the scene at Hard Rock, no prescription medications in ANS's room, but sounds like they are on a table in Taz and Mo's room, which later in report is guest room where Bridgitte Neven is waiting until she goes into ANS' room and finds her and calls Taz to come look, even though Taz is sitting in the room with ANS and is on ANS's computer.
Yes, you are right! I thought that was strange, too, that no mention of when HSK returned in the timeline given.

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Anna Nicole Smith accidentally overdosed on at least nine prescription drugs -- including a powerful sleep syrup she was known to swig right out of the bottle -- after a miserable last few days in which she endured stomach flu, a 105-degree fever, pungent sweating and a pus-filled infection on her buttocks from repeated injections.
In a detailed autopsy report released Monday, a medical examiner noted the former Playboy playmate refused to go to a hospital three days before her Feb. 8 death and chose to ride out her illness in a hotel suite littered with pill bottles, soda cans, SlimFast, nicotine gum and an open box of Tamiflu tablets.
Broward County Medical Examiner Dr. Joshua Perper found that in the days leading up to her death, the 39-year-old Smith had been taking large amounts of the seldom-prescribed sedative chloral hydrate, which also contributed to the 1962 overdose death of Smith's idol Marilyn Monroe.
Police found no apparent signs of foul play, and the medical examiner also ruled Smith's death probably was not a suicide because people who take their own lives typically use much more lethal drugs than chloral hydrate.
Rather, he said, Smith might have been simply unaware that the sedative could be fatal in combination with multiple other prescriptions she was taking in normal doses for anxiety, depression and insomnia.
Contributing factors included her weakened condition from a stomach flu and fever brought on by an infection on her buttocks from repeated injection of other drugs.
"She may have taken the dosages she was accustomed to but succumbed because she was already weakened," Perper said in his report. "Miss Smith has a long history of prescription drug abuse and self-medicated in the past."
A statement issued by lawyers for Howard K. Stern, Smith's companion who was with her before her death, said that Stern and Smith's physician urged her to get emergency treatment but she refused because "she did not want the media frenzy that follows her."
"She refused to go to the hospital because she wanted to avoid media," said attorney Lilly Ann Sanchez in a statement. "Anna called the shots in Anna's life and everyone close to her knows that."
The autopsy report left some unanswered questions such as why it took so long for emergency personnel to be summoned when Smith was discovered unresponsive on Feb. 8 in her room at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.
The report found that a private nurse had asked a bodyguard to call 911 around 1 p.m. and had started CPR. The Seminole EMS were called about 1:40 p.m. by a bodyguard and arrived six minutes later. The ambulance reached the hospital at 2:43 p.m., and Smith was pronounced dead shortly thereafter.
Perper said Smith could have been saved had she been hospitalized earlier in the week simply because her drug intake could have been controlled.
"If she would have gone to the hospital she wouldn't have died because she wouldn't have had the opportunity to take the excessive amount of chloral hydrate," he told The Associated Press.
But Perper said the lag in calling 911 on the day of Smith's death probably didn't matter.
"The earlier you come to a hospital the more you have a chance, but there's not a guarantee," he said. "Those are not things with a mathematic precision, but within a reasonably degree of medical certainty, I don't think she had really a realistic chance."
Perper said he believed at least three doctors had prescribed Smith drugs using a number of aliases, but all the medication was meant for her.
Stern lawyer Sanchez said the chloral hydrate was prescribed for Smith by her friend and psychiatrist, Dr. Khristine Eroshevich, who also traveled with her to Florida. Sanchez said the drug was prescribed last year after Smith's 20-year-old son Daniel died in the Bahamas of apparent drug-related causes.
"She was having nightmares. She was having hallucinations. She was unable to sleep," Sanchez said, adding that Eroshevich turned to "an older, tried and true drug" because it was more effective for Smith than newer sleeping medicines.
Perper said Smith also had been on several antidepressant and antianxiety drugs and had recently been injecting herself with purported longevity medications, vitamin B-12 and growth hormone.
She felt ill shortly after arriving in Fort Lauderdale from the Bahamas on Feb. 5 on a trip with Stern to buy a new yacht. But that illness was brought under control by antibiotics and an ice bath. She also suffered intense, pungent sweating that soaked the sheets. An assistant medical examiner's report described seeing a table in Smith's hotel room containing cold medicine, sodas cans, SlimFast, nicotine gum and an open box of Tamiflu tablets.
Seminole Tribal Police Chief Charlie Tiger said investigators found nothing unusual on laptop computers belonging to Smith and Stern. Tiger also said nothing came up during an exhaustive review of tapes from hotel security cameras and from interviews with numerous witnesses.
The public airing of the details of Smith's death reflected the way she lived her life.
A high school dropout in Texas, she gained fame as as Playboy Playmate of the Year, a model for Guess jeans and later a star in her own reality show. She married 89-year-old oilman J. Howard Marshall II, and after his death took her fight for Marshall's estimated $500 million fortune as far as the Supreme Court. That ongoing battle could make her infant daughter, Dannielynn, very wealthy. Stern and two other men have claimed to be the baby's father.
The medical examiner's report was accompanied by a press release and even a PowerPoint presentation. Among the excruciating details were descriptions of Smith's breast-enhancement scars, her pink hair extensions and numerous tattoos, including one of a Playboy bunny and the smiling face of Marilyn Monroe.

I oh so hope she wasn't married to Daniel. That is gross!
Yes, she had the name of her son tatooed on her..ahem..
This was one weird chick. Opri backpeddling means that she thinks she is about to be in some hot water...perhaps a lawsuit from Stern.
Given that she was a victim of sexual abuse...it is possible that...well you know....and then there is the rumor about DL being the daughter of Daniel.
We will know soon if LB comes out the winner.
Yes. Opri was doing some serious CYA. She didn't even want to say HKS's name.
Thank you! I'm going to have to enter 'Annabannaland' to buy the story told today.
I guess, sometime between when HKS helped her into the bathroom that morning, and before they all returned to the suite at 12:00 or whatever it was, ANS got up (since she was so strong and controlling at that point) and went into the other guest room and took some more pills or the liquid chloral hydrate...
I am sure the poor child was abused by his mother.. Mental type. I read that she would have him sleep in her bed with her in-between lovers. She hated to sleep alone. She gave him nude Polaroids of herself, saying he just so proud of his mother. Uggggg.... Poor boy. I bet he was a virgin. He was probably messed up in the whole sexual dept. I think maybe he probably would have been driven to being gay rather than do that kind of stuff with his own version of "Mommy Dearest!"
I don't know... I am just glad I had normal parents. !!!!
HER FIRST HUBBY'S NAME WAS BILLY
I know...I was expecting consequences for Howie and all the drug doctors involved, including Khristine E.
Dr. Khristine E. is almost anonymous to most people. Her picture is still not showing up on Yahoo Photos...
ANS bought two hookers for Daniel to try to make sure he wasn't "gay" but according to reports he couldn't get it done.
When HKS said something about it, DAniel replied something to the effect of "Look who's talking, you have been around my mother for 10 years and still haven't got a piece".
One wonders if Daniel believed HKS to be the father of the baby with a statement like that.
ANS
Regarding Opri.....
Maybe a lawsuit from Larry Howard K Stern Birkhead........
Just a funny.. ahahahah see... middle name,...
