I've heard the tea pretty much covers up the taste. A baby bottle probably would be a good way of getting her to drink it rather than through a straw....but a straw actually takes less sucking. Did they ever test the baby bottle stuff? Did it disappear? Or was it just a Howard prop?

And maybe it wasn't an actual baby bottle. Some of those new water drinks come in baby shaped bottles with little lift up surpy straws.

[Sacajaweau]

I don’t think they need to do an autopsy...Just change the opinion which fits the meds and the events.

Thanks.

Yes the ice water bath for the fever or whatever happened has definitely become a "suspicious" factoid.....esp after the testimony from Taz.

If I live to see justice done in Anna and Daniel's death - it will be a good day!

[gopheraj]

And hopefully they got enough tissue etc for new tests.

[Sacajaweau]

We stuck with the Peterson Case. However, it took "An Act of God"and his wonders as Lacey and the baby were loosed from their bonds and the tide brought them to rest on the shore. The rest is history.

So, keep the faith. I don't think it's over.

Photographer Larry Birkhead says Anna is addicted to the heroin substitute methadone and that her lawyer Howard K. Stern is her dealer.

Hmmm, I wonder if Lin Wood, Esq. has seen this? Isn't it ironic that Stern will go after O'Quinn for his comments that 'HKS killed ANS', but gives LB a pass when he makes this claim. Didn't Perper say ANS and Danny died from an overdose of drugs, of which methadone happened to be named?

And the reports of a fever and the ice bath would have an effect on how the coroner would view the state of the body and time of death.

I have heard that both high fevers and, of course, ice baths can mess up with the natural processes that a body goes through after death.

They would probably obscure the coroners ability to pin point the time of death and I think it messes up rigor mortis.

after reading about ice baths.....does anyone think they put Anna in the ice bath after she was dead?

[sodpoodle]

“””””after reading about ice baths.....does anyone think they put Anna in the ice bath after she was dead?”””

There are a number of possibilities. The number of ‘water related’ incidents could indicate attempts at drugging & drowning her, in the pool, in the ice-baths etc. to look like ‘accidental drowning’? Or as you suggest, to change the body temperature after death.

The following N.Enq. article is interesting “water in the lungs?” can the presence of water mimic bacterial pneumonia?????

Article:
Pneumonia — not a drug overdose — killed Anna Nicole Smith, the National Enquirer has learned exclusively.

In the new issue just hitting newsstands, The ENQUIRER reports that preliminary findings reveal that tests performed during the autopsy show Anna Nicole had a severe case of pneumonia. Prescription drugs that she had taken made the condition worse and did play a role in her death. The full toxicology report has not yet been completed.

Sources very close to the death investigation told The ENQUIRER that the prescription drugs masked the seriousness of her pneumonia. Anna Nicole had previously been hospitalized for pneumonia in the Bahamas after her son died.

This time, the painkillers Anna Nicole was taking masked her symptoms and quickened the deadly effects of the pneumonia.

All the details are in the next issue of The ENQUIRER.

Pneumonia Associated with Near-Drowning

How did she meet KE on Thursday morning when KE left Wed?

[sodpoodle]

“”I tend to believe the ice bath was before death..”””

I tend to think so too...I am questioning whether it might have been an effort to drown her.

Anna’s death was either a long-term murder plan or an explosion of pure hatred. If there was a murder plot - what method was in place? Drug overdose, or accidental drowning by drug impairment? A drug overdose may have become too risky & taking too long to have the desired effect - so question: was the ice-bath drowning an improvised option?

[sodpoodle]

“””How did she meet KE on Thursday morning when KE left Wed?”””

That conflict has scrambled our assumptions.

It may very well be that Taz met KE on a prior visit to the HardRock by HK$, KE, Anna. The Greta transcript is ambiguous.

[sodpoodle]

“”””In fact it was a last minute thing due to KE having high tailed it out of there in a hurry????”””

Is it possible that KE & HK$ were giving Anna another ‘ice-bath’ on Wednesday. Remember, KE said the last time she saw Anna, she was feeling well and washing her own hair in the tub?

IIRC, no-one saw a living, breathing Anna after Wednesday.

The next day, Thursday, was full of activity by everyone except Anna, who was reportedly “not feeling well”.

Anna’s relapse between bathing herself on Wednesday and her death on Thursday is stunning.

Pneumonia Associated with Near-Drowning

http://www.aspergillus.org.uk/secure/articles/pdfs/Ender97.pdf

Drowning and near-drowning are catastrophic events that occur unexpectedly in the lives of individuals who are often young and otherwise healthy. Common mechanisms for injury are hypoxemia, acidosis, and hypoperfusion. While pulmonary and neurological damage is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, a submersion event can be devastating to all of the major organ systems. Other life-threatening abnormalities include cardiovascular instability and renal failure due to ischemia and metabolic abnormalities and disseminated intravascular coagulation.
