“No evidence of any certificate with the name Hannibel has been shown. They are NOT stripped from the records. The first (if there is one) is as available as the Oct 9th certificate and there should be a “change of name” filing also”
I can’t argue that point effectively because we don’t have access to the records at Bahama registrar, nor do we have records from Doctor’s Hospital, or of Dr. Minnis, or the followup pediatrician. It is my experience that the birth certificate information is collected immediately after birth at the hospital. ANS was hospitalized for at least three days prior to Daniel’s death. Was ANS given the original to carry back to the USA, as Dr. Minnis indicated that she was ready to ‘go home’ ? Is there anything like the ‘freedom-of-information-act’ in the bahamas that would cover incomplete (unfiled) birth records? dunno
We know what HKS filed a month after the birth, after adding his name, without the ‘required affidavits attached’. Clearly, his filing differed from the ‘original’, because affidavits were required for the ‘changes’. Logic dictates there had to be a prior document for the registrar to require such affidavits to ‘add’ HKS’s name. HKS added ‘Stern’ and ‘Marshall’, but no Hogan or Smith.
I do find it intriguing that Anna used “hogan” (identification with her mother/father) instead of ‘smith’ or ‘marshall’ as her own sirname, thereby making the baby a “hogan” (standard old-school geneological practice) - and HKS would have had one hellofatime trying to change Anna’s sirname, along with DL/Hannah’s sirname. Smart move on her part, I’d say, and an important clue.
We can assume, that for the first four days at least, the baby was given some sort of name. For all I know, it could have been ‘virginia’ Ha! I have serious doubts that Anna would have picked ‘dannielynn’, a contraction of LB’s schoolmarm’s name, on her own, had she had any inkling at all of it’s significance. Would you?

SIMPSON: I was with Anna in the Bahamas. And I was we were all brainstorming and throwing out names. And before we went to the Bahamas, we were told the baby was going to
be named Hannah Rose...
ATTEU: Hannibel.
SIMPSON: Hannibel Rose. It was Hannibel Rose. And then after Daniel passed, we started throwing names out. And I had said, why dont we name her Daniela Hope? And then, of
course, it was Dannielynn...
ATTEU: Hope.
SIMPSON: Dannielynn Hope.
(CROSSTALK)
ATTEU: But, of course, they scribbled a whole bunch of names on the card first so that Anna was writing them out to see how it flowed.
SIMPSON: Right. And then she kept on having them read them out (cut off by LK)
Names are not necessarily collected immediately. Mother, baby is what is likely required....in other words...patient information.
When they showed the pictures of Danny, Anna and the baby....Why didn't they mention the babies name in ANY article. Anna was obviously scheduled to be released that AM and that's why they were able to whisk her away. And who took the baby? Anna was drugged up before she left and even had "a memory lapse" at the hospital according to Howard...in a statement issued by the attorney who was fired a few days later.
I'll bet her name was NEVER filled in....before they left the hospital. Just a little more evidence of pre-meditation.
Baby sister, blood relative....Howard's words conveyed to the media.
