The inquest was effectively cancelled 9 days after it was scheduled. I gotta get the dates down "exactly". I'm working on it.

Boy the 20th sounds familiar. Is that the day the birth certificate was filed? I'll look.

Coroner Position is Dissolved

An allegedly corrupt Supreme Court Judge has stripped Linda Virgill of her responsibilities as Coroner

...His memorandum came less than a week after Mrs. Virgill announced that she would hold an inquest

...In the Daniel Smith matter, Chief Magistrate Gomez said that an inquest might not be needed. Once the awaited toxicological reports come in, he said, they would be forwarded to the police and the Office of the Attorney General.

He said that if the Attorney General feels an inquest is called for, Attorney General Allyson Maynard-Gibson would send the file to his office to assign.

Mrs. Maynard-Gibson was not available for comment and had not returned phone calls up to press time.

(no link avail:)At least up until September 25, Butler Funeral Home was planning to ship Daniel’s body back to the United States, Entertainment Tonight reported

Sept 27, 2006
“Wecht said the drugs caused the cardiac dysrhythmia that led to Daniel’s death. Wecht got the toxicology results from National Medical Services in Willow Grove, Pa., on Wednesday.

On Oct 11 Bahamanian officials traveled to CA to question a US doctor in Daniel Wayne Smith’s death.

Anger Over Handling of Smith Death
By: Alison Lowe, The Tribune
http://www.bahamasb2b.com/news/wmview.php?ArtID=9323

On the day of 20-year-old Daniel Smith’s funeral - six weeks after his drug induced death during a visit to his mother and new baby sister - a Bahamian jurist expressed anger at the “injustice” that has so far been done to the Bahamian public by authorities since his death.

The jurist’s anger and disappointment with authorities centred on the fact that they have thus far not conducted, or set a date for an inquest into Daniel’s death, despite it being a “matter of policy and procedure” in all cases of “sudden death,” such as his, in which no-one is criminally charged.

...Last week, Chief Magistrate Roger Gomez told The Tribune that before a date could be set police and pathology reports had to be completed.

Bahamas police have apparently completed their part in the cover-up of Daniel Smith’s homicide by handing the files over to an allegedly corrupt magistrate.

Assistant Commissioner of Police Reginald Ferguson said it is now entirely up to the courts to decide if an inquest will be held into Daniel Smith’s tragic death.

...Just days after the case broke, former Chief Coroner Linda Virgill announced that a coroner’s inquest would be held today.

A formal inquiry into the death of Anna Nicole Smith’s 20-year-old son has been scheduled for March 27 in the Bahamas, the chief magistrate said Tuesday.
