TMZ has just confirmed the California Medical Board is conducting a formal investigation into Dr. Khristine Eroshevich, Anna’s psychiatrist who prescribed numerous drugs that Anna ended up taking.
Eleven drugs were found in the hotel room where Anna died, all prescribed by Eroshevich. Eight were prescribed to Howard K. Stern, including chloral hydrate, the drug that was the most direct cause of Anna’s death.
This is the second Anna doc who is being investigated for prescribing practices involving Anna Nicole Smith. The Board is also investigating Dr. Sandeep Kapoor, who prescribed methadone to Smith under an alias when she was eight months pregnant.
Last September, just 5 days after Daniel died, a document shows that Dr. Eroshevich sent Dr. Kapoor a prescription wish list for Anna, which included methadone, Soma, Dilaudid and Lorazepam. Kapoor has said he did not fill the prescriptions.
I'm starting to picture KE as having a little experimental lab in "the old sealed room".
Feel like I'm playing CLUE.
I hope this is true. AJ Hammer interviewed Perper last night on Showbiz Tonight. I hope someone here can find the transcript.... I don’t want to paraphrase. AJ asked good questions and Perper dodged and weaved and basically as most of us suspected, because KE is a physician he didn’t feel it was up to him to second guess her prescriptions for ANS.... and felt nothing was wrong with the prescriptions being in HKS’s name since ANS was a celebrity.
I’m a bit concerned about the drugs that WERE NOT found in the hotel room but WERE found in Anna’s system. There were at least two: the human growth hormone and something else.
Why did they disappear? What else is missing? Who removed them? And why? If the CH wasn’t there it probably wouldn’t have been tested for. Why remove the growth hormone and leave the CH?
