Re: Billy Wayne Smith - I was unable to find info on Billy Smith, Daniel’s father.
It did seem, however, that the legal standing in Seidlin’s Florida court (i.e. blood relatives)for mothers,grandmothers, fathers - was removed in favor of ‘non-husbands’, ‘sperm donors’ and ‘live in lawyers’ who had a pecuniary interest in the disposition of the bodies of two US citizens in foreign graves.
Yes, we see Seidlin was a disgrace. But the law let him do it. The entire legal community said it was a farce. Appeals court let it fly. Bottom line, it is over and done, they are in the ground in the Baha’s.
The world barely noticed, giggled and moved on. They saw a name, Anna Nicole and looked no further. Most complained ANS was nobody, was taking up too much time from ‘real’ news. Fact is, while witnessing our American justice system’s erosion into a mockery, a shear satire, the nation saw only a story about a dead stipper preempting their time.
Then CBS rewards such injustice and mockery! You know anyone that was so outraged they took the time, to a stand and actually wrote their outrage to CBS? See any Americans protesting w/ a CBS black out? Oh Gosh, lets not get fanatical.. couldn’t miss Big Brother, what good would that do? Did Simon and Schuster sales drop suddenly? Parents taking a stand and dumping their kids Aladdin books in a fire pit? Heck, if they printed a book tomorrow on this case there would be a line up showing approval by dishing out cash.
CBS SIGNED the jerk. They know americans as a whole are as selfish as Anna. You think they aren’t going to back their investment with corporate dollars? One sporting event will take care of those bucks. And how many that complain will be the first to tune in then hit the boards to rant for selfish gratification or go on to support CBS if they were to telecast the Superbowl tomorrow?
We have become millions of Seidlin supporters in many ways. The information society. Might miss Letterman and that just won’t do.
