Something is not quite right about that statement! Larry’s comment about Daniel ‘living in the fast lane’...seems ‘out of left field’ to me!! Why say anything at all (esp something hurtful) about the DEAD 20 year old son of your DEAD 39 year old ex-girlfriend?!! It seems very strange to me...and AGAIN, leads me to believe that LB has made a deal with HKS. What the deal is, I do not know...but Larry’s statement about Daniel BENEFITS only one person...and that is HKS!! I still hope Larry agreed to any terms set forth by HKS only while in the Bahamas, and he will NOT honor those agreements when he has DL safely in the U.S.! Also, maybe the only thing Larry agreed to is to ‘say nice things about HKS’ to help him improve his image before the Inquest begins??? But that statement about Daniel living in the fast lane, seems an odd statement to make at this point, and like I said, it only benefits one person...HKS!!!!
He also talks about his relationship with Anna’s late son, DANIEL. He tells OK! that near the end of his life, Daniel was living in the fast lane.
“He might have started hanging out with the wrong group of kids when he went to college,” Larry tells the magazine. “He was 20 when he went to college so I think it was too much too quick.”
Note..do we even know those are the exact words he used? He speculates that he might have started .....but is this the author just try to sensationlize..and where the heck does he get that 20 is too quick to start college. That is out of nowhere..lol... That makes no sense..most kids are 18 when they start college.
HK's comment today was just as strange; Tony Potts reporting that, talking to HK, he asked him if he was going to write a card, or a little note, something for DL to keep, to remind her of him in her life. Potts said, that HK said that he wasnt going to do that, that he didn't expect that he would be out of her life.
Back during Seidlin's court, LB had remarked, sometime around the 'secret meeting', that HK had sent him a 'text message' (quoting) and that the msg said, 'do yu want to raise the baby together'. I'm not sure why LB felt compelled to relay that to us, while assuring us there was 'no deals'. even back then.
LB: I am a California resident - if I get the daughter that I know if mine - will she have to travel a long way to see her mother? ...serious matter of exhuming body of Daniel...California...was her home...that's where I would prefer her to be...since her son passed away I know he didn't want to go to the Bahamas. LB: I don't want to separate the mother from the child, but I don't want them (ANS/Daniel) in the Bahamas - so having a difficult decision....
"Mr. Birkhead and Mr. Stern are completely in line with wanting to bury Anna in the Bahamas. On this point I can say they're unified," Barth said.
"Sources tell me that following Judge Larry Seidlin’s atrocious performance on the bench Friday, Rale and Stern strong-armed Birkhead into a secret meeting that excluded Debra Opri, Birkhead’s attorney. Opri was said to horrified when she learned that Birkhead allowed Stern and Rale to “rale-road” her client into such a meeting.....Opri can’t be happy with Birkhead’s tendency to ignore her advice. According to sources, she’s been paying all his expenses on this crusade to recover a baby he believes is biologically his." (Shelley said this meeting was to get all legal actions against HK dropped)

3/2/7 - Stern has kept up the pressure on Birkhead, actually presenting him with contracts, sources say, in which Birkhead would join Stern for more exclusive interviews on "Entertainment Tonight" and "The Insider."
"Larry said the baby's guardian (Richard Milstein) should sign the papers for him and the baby, but (Milstein) wouldn't. So then Larry wouldn't."
3/5/7 - "TMZ has been reporting that Stern has asked Birkhead for some level of involvement in Dannielynn's financial affairs after the paternity test reveals who the biological father of Dannielynn is"
Birkhead's lawyer, Debra Opri, speaking with Inside Edition, denied reports of an alleged deal between her client and Stern. I will not allow a child to be used as a bargaining chip, Opri said.
HAMMER: So, it sounds like, from what you`re saying, Debra Opri wants to keep this strictly within the legal system? LEVIN: Well, you can negotiate ultimately the DNA issue. She`s willing to negotiate the terms for DNA and the fast tracking of DNA, but not money. At least that`s what she`s saying now.
3/16/7 - In an interview with MSNBC's Rita Cosby, Opri said that she terminated the relationship because of the growing unhealthy influence of Howard K. Stern, Smith's companion. "I just couldn't handle it anymore," she said. "I made my decision to end the relationship last night."
3/16/7 - LB: This is totally unrelated to my California paternity action, and there was no reason for a statement to be released just hours before my appearance in a Bahamas court."
