speaking of Khrisvorkian: is Alex Katz any relation to the below Dr. Katz?
We now know that Alex Katz was in the room the first night of Anna’s arrival - AND we now know that he called the hotel liason on the day of her death - quite the involved little man, eh?
...from Rita’s timeline: 2:37 Alex Katz calls liaison. “He was the other person in the room with them Monday night after they arrived, the night ANS had the 105.”
EXPLOSIVE NEW CLAIM: SMITH CHOKED ON HER OWN VOMIT
HOLLYWOOD, Fla. (February 8, 2007) — According to a credible source, an employee of Anna Nicole Smith found her in her room in the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida. The employee pulled back a sheet and discovered that she appeared to have choked on her own vomit.
The same source claims that Smith took what was referred to as a “children’s sedative,” and had “kept passing out” before her death.
AccessHollywood.com has learned from this same source that one of the attending physicians at Memorial Regional Hospital was Dr. Randy Katz. When we contacted Dr. Katz, he acknowledged that he was indeed an attending physician, but Dr. Katz would not comment on any specifics related to his care of Smith.

more on Alex Katz:
“She and Howard checked in at 8:10 p.m. under “Fred and Wilma Flintstone,” their usual not-so-discrete codeword for “I’m-a-celebrity.” Hotel employees said Howard kept her from talking to people and told everyone she had the flu. They went up to room 607, accompanied by Dr. Khris, and another male. Anna’s “Florida person,” bodyguard “Big Moe” Brighthaupt, joined them later.”
Alex Katz, a 60-year-old south Floridian businessman, whom I later learned to be a friend of Dr. Khris’s, was with them that night and actually picked up at least one prescription, while a hotel concierge picked up a thermometer. Normally, the concierge can pick up prescriptions, but in this case, Anna’s party insisted on getting the prescription themselves. When I contacted Alex Katz, he confirmed his friendship with Dr. Khris, but quickly told me, “I don’t want to talk about that night” and hung up. A source close to the investigation says Katz later refused to talk to Seminole Police and “lawyered up and shut up quickly.”
