I don't expect anything to come out the Daniel inquest now

All I hope for is that Dannielynn will be with her real father ASAP.

Unfortunately the inquest will be as Mark Geragos stated the other night, a political show inquest.

All I hope for is that Dannielynn will be with her real father ASAP.

And if that does not happen, I quess I will just have to give up on humanity.

Perhaps they will get the sleaze on kidnapping conspiracy. One can only hope.

No Crime: Anna Nicole Smith's Death 'Accidental'


Anna Nicole Smith died of an accidental drug overdose with no indication of foul play and no criminal action, according to the Seminole Police and the Broward County Medical Examiner. Although nine different prescription drugs were found in her system, all were at theraputic levels.
No criminal charges will be filed in the death of Smith, according to police chief Charlie Tiger. Her death was the result of a tragic overdose of a sleeping medication, chloral hydrate, in combination with other drugs and her weakened state due to an infection, according to Dr. Joshua Perper.

At a news conference in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, Dr. Perper ended all speculation that criminal charges might be filed in the death of the 39-year-old model and pinup. "We found nothing to indicate any foul play," said Chief Tiger.

Suspicious Circumstances

On Sept. 7, 2006, Anna Nicole Smith -- former Playmate, jeans model and bride of 89-year-old billionaire J. Howard Marshall II -- gave birth to a daughter, Dannielynn Hope, in the Bahamas. Rumors abounded at the time that she went to the Bahamas to have the baby to avoid paternity claims from her ex-boyfriend, Larry Birkhead.

Three days later, her 20-year-old son, Daniel Smith, died under suspicious circumstances in his mother's hospital room. His autopsy showed that he had a deadly combination of prescription drugs in his system.

Later in September, attorney Howard K. Stern claimed that he is the father of Dannielynn. It was revealed that Stern's name is on the birth certificate as the father. The next day, Larry Birkhead told reporters that he was the baby's father and later filed court papers in Los Angeles claiming paternity.

On the very next day, Sept. 28, 2006, Anna Nicole Smith and Howard K. Stern exchange vows in a "commitment ceremony" on a boat in the Bahamas, but are not officially or legally married.

Paternity, Residency Questioned

On October 19, 2006, Daniel Smith was finally buried in the Bahamas. On Oct. 25, Smith's Bahamian residency was questioned after it was learned she never paid for the house or even signed a mortgage.

In November, Anna Nicole was treated for pneumonia and a collapsed lung at a hospital in the Bahamas. She was discharged after a week.

On Dec. 21, 2006, a Los Angeles judge rules that he has jurisdiction over the paternity issue and order Smith to bring Dannielynn to California for DNA testing. That ruling was temporarily blocked on appeal.

However, on Feb. 7, the Los Angeles judge ordered DNA samples from Smith and Dannielynn to be submitted for testing by Feb. 21.

The next day, Feb. 8, 2007, Anna Nicole Smith, age 39, died at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida, and a possible drug overdose was suspected.

Autopsy Results Delayed

An initial autopsy report, issued the day after her death, found no evidence that she had taken large amounts of prescription medication. The medical examiner said prescription drugs, but no illegal drugs, were found in Smith's hotel room. He did not, however, identify the drugs at the time.

Broward County Medical Examiner, Dr. Joshua Perper, was expected to release his autopsy results several times, but the results were repeatedly delayed, because he said he received additional evidence from the Seminole Police Department.

On March 2, 2007, after more than three weeks of legal wrangling, which turned into a media circus over who should be given possession of her body, Anna Nicole Smith was buried next to her son in the Bahamas.

On March 20, 2007, a judge in the Bahamas ordered DNA testing on Danielynn, Larry Birkhead, and Howard K. Stern to determine paternity. The results are expected to be announced April 3 during a scheduled court hearing.
