What I'm trying to assess is whether Brigitte was complicit with Howard's plan or was given "watch duty" over an already dead body".
The one with Brigitte alone, seems to have already been bumped off. Rita appears to be in the Bahamas doing these interviews.

Rita: We want to bring you more now, of our exclusive interview with two of Anna Nicole’s close friends. Earlier Brigitte Neven told me about finding Anna Nicole in that Florida hotel room the day she died. She and her companion Eric Gibson traveled to Florida to help Anna Nicole and Howard K. Stern buy a yacht. I also asked them why they got to know Anna Nicole so well.
EG: Anna Nicole was searching, she was searching for something that she never really had. She was searching for family, love, somebody who would have her back, and somebody who she could lean on , somebody who she could trust.. And I think she found it. What amazes me, what amazes me is that Anna is a great actor, you know, you think ah you think know her…..and all of a sudden you really don’t know her anymore. Because if you tried to control her life you are in trouble. She is the leader, you know, in the Bahamian style we say, ‘she wears the pants in the house’ (laughs) that what we use the Bahamian style.
Rita: What about all these rumors out there or reports out there, if you will, that Howard was controlling Anna?
EG: Nonsense
Rita: Is there any truth that Howard was controlling Anna?
EG: Nonsense, Nonsense…..that is totally…..that is totally out of whack. She, she, if you want to use the sense of control, I would say that she controls him. Cause she…uh….Anna doesn’t do anything she doesn’t want to do, trust me.
Rita: So what was her relationship like with Howard Stern then?
EG: Well, Howard…..you know, I think that’s why Anna and Howard could get off to, Howard has the personality,……..he’s….he doesn’t have a controlling personality…he’s not, he’s not…he just go with the flow…..You know…..sometimes I think he just go the flow too much, but I mean, I be the Bahamian. You know, a lot of men stick their chest out, but Howard don’t. I mean, but this is what she wants. Any other way she not going to accept it.
Rita: Did they love each other, from what you saw?
EG: Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah.
Rita: And you believe she loved him?
EG: Oh yeah
Rita: And you believe he loved her?
EG: Oh yeah, this was a……this was a……it was a genuine relationship.
Rita: Why did she embrace you and what did she say about her real family?
EG: Oh, she didn’t want ……she didn’t want to hear her mother them even dream of calling. She thinks she….she thinks…..she doesn’t have a family, she said.
Rita: Even though she has a mother…
EG: Yeah, yeah….she didn’t want…..
Rita: and sisters…….
EG: The last person she want to call is her mother them.
BN: No, she never talked…she… she....she did not speak of her of ….of….no. She…she just said to me that she didn’t have anybody. She said normally there’s a grandmother to knit something, but Dannielynn does not have a grandmother. That’s what she said to me….so.
EG: I know for sure, she wants nothing to do with her mother. I know that for sure. Rita: What were her plans in the Bahamas?
EG: She had a lot of plans for the Bahamas. She had no intention of going anyplace else besides the Bahamas. She was going to make this her home. She had planned to adopt a Bahamian child.
Rita: She wanted to adopt a child?
EG: Absolutely.
BN: Yes.
EG: Absolutely. She wanted…..she wanted to do that. She wanted to get into the Bahamian life. I think that’s why she appreciated us because we always encourage her to go out, get out of the house. Let’s go to the beach. Let’s go swimming. And she loved boats. She loved to boat.
Rita: How serious was she about adopting a Bahamian child?
EG: Oh she…
BN: Well….there is steps you have to go through, you see, but the….the first step was to get the house. And she did…….and to remodel the Coral Harbor home….and uh….you know it’s a step at a time. You got to be subtle first, but that definitely was……she talked about that quite a few times.
Rita: Do you believe she considered Bahamas her home? Based on what you’ve told me?
EG: Absolutely.
BN: Yes
Rita: This was her future here?
EG: Absolutely, Absolutely. You know, you know when she were, when she were going away….just, just this last time, before she leaves to go over….to the states, she said to uh…to Mrs. Gibson, “if something happened to us…..if this plane crash, you keep my baby……do not let them take my baby.”
Rita: Where was the baby when Anna Nicole passed away?
EG: In Nassau, in Nassua………She does……she does not want that baby to…to….to leave the island at all….I know that.
Rita: Why didn’t she want the baby to leave here?
EG: Why? cause people keep messing with her. Everybody keep……everybody keep saying all these things. You know, everybody….everybody wants to own the baby.
Rita: Do you believe she loved Bahamas so much…..she would rather be buried here than…….in the US?
EG: Absolutely.
BN: Well, there’s the other reason. Her son is buried here, so why would she want to be someplace else?
Lord have mercy. I spent 4 hrs on the phone with my aunt, and we discussed how evil the world has become. Such evil that you can feel it on ocassion. This would comfirm it. The love of money is the root of all evil.
