Anna Nicole Smith, Seeking Justice #4
HKS may be lumping together some of his allegations under that banner of “wrongfully taken property” - such as the diaries and anything else he can think of that he “just can’t seem to find among her belongings”.
The camera and memory card were allegedly taken from the hotel room in FL, so they would be ruled out - except that it allegedly happened after she died - *shortly* after she died - so that would make them be part of the property to be probated.
And the boob job tapes weren’t really taken “from” her and it happened in TX, so also not applicable in CA.
OTOH, a whole lot of this would fall under the misc bric-a-brac of personal property that doesn’t need to be listed, under a certain amount - so it doesn’t really need to be “litigated,” either. Only Stern would do that.
Lots of wiggle room there for him to have fenced stuff or whatever other money-making schemes he might have had for her stuff that are not things I can even think up right now, without googling and reading up on it, lol!
Most of it is HKS’s or LB’s either way. In CA they can legally keep all but 15% even if the baby appeared alone!
The show is on tonight - if no one here is watching it or reporting on it, there is a blow-by-blow description on the Weekly Thread at crimelibrary’s ANS forum.
I didn’t see anything new.
yes, I saw your research posted around 3/7 or 3/8 - I’m still trying to find a mention other than that but not having much luck so far..
did find this - appears she’s known Moe for a long, long time:
July 6th, ‘07 - VAN SUSTEREN: Tas, when did you first meet Mo?
TASMA BRIGHTHAUPT, NURSE WHO FOUND ANNA NICOLE’S BODY: I met Mo about 12 years ago.
VAN SUSTEREN: How long have you guys been married?
BRIGHTHAUPT: About two years now.
VAN SUSTEREN: When was the first time, you know, before Mo or after Mo, that you ever heard the name Anna Nicole Smith?
BRIGHTHAUPT: Years ago, from her “Playboy” days.
VAN SUSTEREN: So you’d heard of her before.
BRIGHTHAUPT: I’d heard of her long before.
VAN SUSTEREN: When you married Mo, did you know that Mo knew Anna Nicole?
BRIGHTHAUPT: Yes.
VAN SUSTEREN: How did you understand that they knew each other?
BRIGHTHAUPT: In a working sense. He worked with her as a bodyguard.
VAN SUSTEREN: When did you then first actually meet her?
BRIGHTHAUPT: I met Anna about two years ago, a year-and-a-half ago.
VAN SUSTEREN: Where?
BRIGHTHAUPT: At the Hard Rock.
[note: recall that gaydaddys claim ANS had to ‘approve’ of ‘their’ relationship ....wonder why TAZ was never ‘introduced’ to ANS by Moe at ANS’s request ala gaydaddys, before they, themselves, were married?
Am I seeing things wrong, or does it seem that Moe, Shelleys, G.Ben, Gerlene/Shane Gibson/King Gibson, Jackie, Goen, Daniel, etc. etc., describe such a different ANS than HKS/LB/KE want us to believe?]
and how messed up was ANS after all, if she was allegedly writing a screenplay for a movie?
Gibson a “likely” witness
By RAYMOND KONGWA, Guardian Senior Reporter
raymond@nasguard.com
When asked on Monday night if he had ever received a gift from the late Anna Nicole Smith, Shane Gibson, the Labour and Immigration Minister accused of fast-tracking Smith’s residency said: “I honestly can’t remember.”
His memory lapse came during a specially televised event the Christie administration’s top crisis managers staged in response to romantically suggestive and potentially evidential photographs of the Minister and Smith, published in Monday’s Tribune. Mr Gibson also offered no explanation for another published photograph in which he appears to be showing off the contents of a gift box, while standing near Ms Smith.
But Gibson might have to answer even tougher questions in a little more than a month. Chief Magistrate Roger Gomez told The Guardian on Thursday that the minister will “most likely” be called to testify in a coroner’s inquest into the death of Anna Nicole’s 20-year-old son, Daniel.
“Most likely he will [be called],” Gomez said, “From press reports, he was up there to the hospital around the time that Daniel would have been visiting. So, anyone who would have seen [Daniel] alive at the hospital will be called as a witness.”
[snip]
Wayne Munroe, the attorney Who Will Represent Daniel’s Estate
during the March 26 inquiry, and who was Anna Nicole’s lawyer before her sudden death in Florida last week, does not believe Gibson was ever at the hospital while Daniel visited, prior to his death.
Conceding that some of the photographs published in The Tribune show Gibson visiting Smith’s hospital room on September 9 the date Daniel flew to The Bahamas Munroe said the time of the Gibson’s visit excludes the minister from any encounter with Daniel.
He said The Time Indicators of the Original Digital Images Of the published Photos Stored On The Laptop Computer Of...Howard K Stern,
shows that Gibson visited the hospital prior to Daniel’s arrival in The Bahamas. He added that the visitor log made by doctors and nurses who treated Smith also dismisses an encounter between Gibson and Daniel.
“It seems from looking at the photos on the hard drive and at the notes made by the doctors, the minister was not there while Daniel was there,” said Munroe. “I have serious doubts,”
Munroe is in a special position to estimate the earliest time that Daniel could have arrived at the hospital if Daniel went directly to the hospital to see his mother after flying in.
Coincidentally, the two travelled on the same American Airlines flight. Smith connected from Miami after flying from Los Angles and making a initial connection in Texas, and Munroe connected in Miami on a return trip from St Kitts.
“The flight got in later in the evening,” said Munroe, “I think it might have been the last flight American Airlines had out of Miami that day.” The published photograph of the minister visiting Smith at the hospital clearly shows daylight coming in a window in the background of the photograph.
But whether Gibson testifies or not, the inquest is likely to generate lots of attention. Nobody questions that Stern had contact with Daniel in the hours before he was discovered dead, and Stern has become a larger celebrity since Anna Nicole’s death....

[note: straight from camera to laptop.hmmm]
Never heard that about ANS writing a screenplay.
Just a tidbit, (not sure it you already know).
Laura Ingraham said this morning that she received a letter from Lynn Wood, HKS attorney, because she had interviewed Rita last month. He was threatening her not to repeat anything in the book.
Of course she told him to shove it, lol. She had not even talked to Rita about any gay stuff.
Yup, “that’s our Leroy.” When JonBenet’s parents hired him, John Ramsey said, “We’re going to change the way the public gets its news.”
Then Leroy set about slapping lawsuits on anyone and everyone who had ever mentioned Burke Ramsey’s name AND had deep pockets. Most were settled out of court - and one of them included Patsy Ramsey *giving* an interview to their hated nemesis the Natl Enquirer, even bringing them cookies she had baked. Didn’t sound like a “win” that time.
Then he tried to have Boulder detective Steve Thomas’s book on the case taken off the shelves. That didn’t work, either.
Remains to be seen how this is all going to play out. Can’t predict the double lying that will be happening when HKS and Leroy Lincoln Wood put their forked tongues together.
sorry if this has already been answered, I’m reading a little behind...
from the ‘event’ line:
Dec 14th, ‘06 - Mrs. Alexis fired by Stern for allegedly talking to outside doctor about ANS’s prescription drugs.
Dec 15th, ‘06 - Dec 17th?? - per Access Hollywood Video Sodpoodle jusst posted - One Moe Bedtime Story babysitting DL in Bahamas(?)
Dec 15th, ‘06 - ANS in US for hearing related to Marshall case Smiths appearance at the hearing in San Francisco was her first time in the USA since the death of her son Daniel and the birth of her daughter Dannielynn in September.
December 16th, ‘06:
SHE’S BAAACK: ANNA NICOLE RETURNS TO U.S.A.!
...Stern was also served with legal papers outside the courthouse for allegedly giving perjured statements in connection with Birkhead’s paternity suit, Birkhead told E! Online.
Friday, December 15, 2006 through Sunday, December 17, Gibson left six messages and called an additional time without leaving one.
http://www.tmz.com/2007/03/12/shane-gibsons-late-night-calls-to-anna/
.
question of the day: Who retrieved the msgs off ANS’s phone and released them ??????? who would have had access???? TMZ states it was a ‘cell phone’ not her ‘landline’ home phone?
rita can’t write a second book if Lin keeps her focused on scandal about this first book....maybe she’s unearthed something she might not even know the implications of...I feel it. But we’re gonna figure out what it is. IMO MOO IMO
Michael Scott was originally named as handling Daniel’s estate. Following his withdrawal from representation, Wayne Monroe, head of Bahama Bar Assn (i believe) took over the affairs of Daniel’s estate.
it’s only been the two lawyers that have even mentioned any ‘estate’ - nothing from HKS or LB that I’ve seen
Hks told us early on, he wouldn’t ‘leave Anna’. During the August regattas, King Gibson mentioned that HKS had discussed building a house on another island
Was it on LKL that HKS said that L.A. was his ‘legal’ residence?
I heard in relation to the Girls Gone Wild guy that Greta was interviewing that ‘drug trafficing’ tends a 30yr sentence...wonder what the penalty is in the Bahamas?
hopping around like a frog, he is
wonder if the wrongfully taken, is over the diaries or over the stuff the Shelley’s removed?
pretty much the same thing he said in September:
http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20057499,00.html?xid=rss-topheadlines
considering he’s got temp custody, and considering that Calif is lienient with grandparents’ rights when their offspring is deceased, LB is walking a real thin line, IMO - I’d like to see the family court judge slap him down a few notches and give Virgie the baby for a few months straight “visitation” as what happens when two feuding parents try to keep a child from seeing the other.
oh yes of course, what am I thinking of? the natural grandfather
sorry!
sorry, left this off, re: screenplay
from WENN news
29 March 2007 (WENN)
Tragic model Anna Nicole Smith was so desperate to play her icon Marilyn Monroe in a Hollywood movie, she offered to fund a film about the actress’ second husband, Joe DiMaggio. But Marv Schneider, who penned DiMaggio: Setting The Record Straight, says Smith’s generous offer was turned down, because directors feared if she was cast as Monroe, other stars turn down the role of DiMaggio. He tells the New York Daily News, “She offered to at least partially finance it, about six months before she died. The screenplay was finished in the summer. It was rejected out of hand. She wasn’t considered ready. Also, if she got the role, we thought we’d have a tough time getting a top actor to play DiMaggio.”

i posted this screenplay thing a while back, when I was making my argument that I thought methadone was a big fat pink elephant
Methadone was used to cast the worst possible light on ANS
Methadone was used to stir the ‘save Dannielynn’ fire in Opri
Methadone was used to motivate VA into immediate motion to seek emergency custody of her granddaughter
A source told the tabloid Star Magazine that Smith’s sixth-floor suite in the hotel looked like “a pharmacist’s shop.” The room was filled with prescription medication, including Xanax, Provigil, Vicodin and “a ... lot of methadone,” Star reported.
http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/nationworld/2003565634_smith10.html
(who’s the source? ‘cause, mysteriously, there wasn’t a drop or crumb of methadone anywhere in that room, unless you’re counting bile)
Feb 22nd, ‘07 - Birkhead: ...And you don`t know how many times I had to help her and to carry her back and forth to make sure she was OK. Sometimes I didn`t even know if she was going to live. And they kept bringing more and more drugs in the house.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17320005/page/3/
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0702/22/sbt.01.html
“Munroe countered that Daniel died from overdosing on methadone tablets not the liquid form” (when asked about the liquid methadone in the frig)
all three were discarded like yesterday’s trash and the lack of concern over said methadone was dismissed with comments like,
Stern: I talked to her about it. I mean, I talked to her about it. And she did cut down a lot on medication that she took. Can anybody stop someone else?
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17320005/
BIRKHEAD: The doctors say everything`s OK. So, do I worry? I think any parent would worry. If you`re not in control of your own child and know what`s going on daily, you would worry.
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0703/05/sbt.01.html
The day after the funeral of his ex-girlfriend Anna Nicole Smith...Birkhead was playing it up to all the tourists as he waited for a flight to the U.S.
At one point, four women came up to him to ask for a photo, and he gladly complied, arms around all four of them - seemingly happy to be the center of attention.”
http://www.nydailynews.com/03-04-2007/news/story/502459p-423756c.html
March 16th, ‘07 - Birkhead, in the Bahamas preparing for Friday’s custody hearing over the five-month-old girl, told Access Hollywood that he plans to go in a different direction and has complete confidence in attorney, Emerick Knowles, who’s handling the Bahamas portion of the case.
http://www.earthtimes.org/articles/show/41089.html
April 18,’07 -OK! Birkhead: Howard did things for Anna that no one wanted to. I actually feel sorry for Howard.
Birkhead, who sold the first family photos of him with his baby daughter exclusively to Britain’s OK! Magazine is thankful for Stern’s helping hand...
http://www.starpulse.com/news/index.php/2007/04/19/larry_birkhead_praises_howard_k_stern_fo
was Anna really an addict???? this is one of the reasons I don’t think so - I think methadone is a big fat pink elephant. I think ANS had met some allies with the Shelleys and was cutting LB and HKS loose.
I hope you found this testimony as interesting as I did. I’d find reason for admission to Cedars Sinai even more interesting. Maybe I’m wrong, but, this is compelling reading:
SEIDLIN’S COURT:
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: Miss Smith had not been through rehab, and you were aware that she had substance-abuse issues. Is that correct?
BIRKHEAD: Correct.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: And why is it then that you as an adult, as you just stated, took the chance on getting her pregnant and putting this baby in danger before it was even conceived?
BIRKHEAD: Well, when she came back from South Carolina in November and December.
SEIDLIN: No, no, no long story. Answer the [question].
BIRKHEAD: Because when we got - when we.
SEIDLIN: Why did you make her pregnant when you knew she was overmedicated?
BIRKHEAD: Well, the answer is, when she came back from South Carolina,
she was not medicated as much, and she cleared herself up.
SEIDLIN: What do you mean?
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: As much?
BIRKHEAD: Well, she had been - and she - I could understand what she was saying, I could understand her. She was in a better state of mind. Her skin was clear. She was a better -it was totally different.
[snip]And while she was pregnant, like I said yesterday, I tried to get - massage her pains away, I tried to say, `Why don`t you take something that`s over the counter?
[snip]ANDERSON: Larry also said that he and Anna Nicole had not intended to get pregnant with Danielynn. He said after an earlier miscarriage, he thought it would be better to wait until Anna stopped taking pills.
Feb 22nd, ‘07 -
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0702/22/sbt.01.html
when she ‘came back in Nov and Dec’??????? huh??????
long-term planning is 24hrs or less? Dec 31st/Jan 1 return, Dec 31/Jan 1 pregnant?
He said his legal residence was Ca in Seidlin’s Court and ANNA pays for his apartment.
