I expect the arrest of two people for "negligent homicide in the death of Anna Nicole Smith" to occur 15 minutes before Perper announces his results. You think Perper is holding the horses back for nothing?
The problem I can see is that he is in the Bahamas and who has jurisdiction. Either they have to get Howard and KE to Florida or the Bahama authorities will hold him until he can be extradited to the USA.
Maybe after the DNA thing, they can send him to the USA as an undesireable or simply because his visa (or whatever) has run out.
"I expect the arrest of two people for "negligent homicide in the death of Anna Nicole Smith"
I hope so. If that happens, and one of them is HKS, a woo-hoo will be heard around the nation...coming from us Freepers!

Seidlin: We’ve got to keep going. You can now begin by asking some questions.
Deb Opri: Thank you, your Honor.
John O’Quinn: For the record, your Honor, I object to my cross examination being terminated. There were lots of other subjects I needed to go into.
Seidlin: Yes, fine.
DO: Good afternoon, Mr. Stern. You know who I am. Did Anna keep a computer?
HKS: She had, she had two computers that were stolen in the house.
DO: The answer to the question is yes or no.
HKS: Yes, she had a computer.
DO: Did she maintain a password for her computer?
HKS: Yes.
DO: Did you know the password for the computer?
HKS: Yes
DO: Did she maintain checking accounts where you were a signatory to those checking accounts?
HKS: No.
DO: Did she have corporations where you were an officer or a signatory to those corporations?
Krista Barth: Objection, how does this go to Miss Anna Nicole Smith’s intent in relation to burial?
HKS: I believe I was an agent for service of process.
Seidlin: Hold it, hold it.
KB: We are so far a field….
Seidlin: We’ve…we’ve argued this. The issue of money. We got money and we have heart. She’s chasing the issue about the money. It’s relevant. Your objection’s overruled.
KB: Thank you.
Seidlin: You’re welcome.
HKS: I believe I was an agent for service of process for her corporation. But I don’t think I was uh an officer.
DO: You don’t know if you signed checks for the corporations or not?
HKS: She would instruct me to sign checks. Her main checkbook was through the corporation.
DO: So the answer was “Yes, you signed checks for the corporation?”
HKS: Yes. I signed her name upon her instruction.
DO: So you signed Anna Nicole’s name to checks for the corporation?
HKS: It wasn’t “Anna Nicole”.
DO: Vickie Lynn Marshall.
HKS: Vickie Marshall….yeah.
DO: While we are on the subject, what were her aliases or other names she used?
KB: Objection, relevance. How is what her aliases are…
DO: It goes to the money.
Seidlin: I’m hoping you can tie it up.
DO: I’m……very quickly
KB: Here’s the concern.
Seidlin: One person speaks at a time.
KB: These things have been stolen from Anna Nicole Smith’s home by Mr. Ford
DO: Speaking objection, you Honor. Objection.
KB: Well, I need to proffer what the problem is here. Here’s the concern, if we start getting into what are account numbers and what are passwords and what did she have….he doesn’t have control of any of this stuff….they [motioning to LB side of the courtroom] have it in their possession. That it was obtained through stolen means.
DO: Let the record reflect she is pointing to my table, that is inflammatory, it’s prejudicial and I want her censored. And sit down while you’re at it. (to Barth)
KB: You know what? In addressing the court in Florida we actually stand out of deference to the court.
[O’Quinn is whispering in DO’s ear]
DO: Your Honor, I have given great deference over three days, where I come from we are respected.
Seidlin: Yes, I’m going to allow you to ask your questions.
DO: And uh, may I please request that you ask her to stay in her seat?
HKS: What’s the question?
DO: Read back the question for Mr. Stern, please.
Seidlin: No, no don’t go back….reading back. That’s the worst question you can do to a court reporter. You are making her heart jump fast. Plus it takes so much time. Just ask it again.
DO: What were all the names Anna Nicole Smith used?
KB: Same objection, your Honor, relevance.
Seidlin: I’ll allow it. Let me see where she wants to go.
HKS: There was Anna Nicole Smith.
Seidlin: She’s got only a few minutes. Yes.
HKS: There’s Anna Nicole Smith, Vickie Marshall, Vickie Hogan, Vickie Smith. Then doctors uh some doctors prescribed things to her in different names, even though they knew it was for her. One of those names is Michelle Chase. Another one was Suzy Wong. These are at different times though. Um, at hotels she went by Mrs. Flintstone…uh, I mean she went by a lot of different names, in different contexts.
DO: Did you often….
HKS: She went by Norma Jean…
DO: Did you often pick up prescriptions for her at various pharmacies under these names?
HKS: I believe that’s asked and answered.
Seidlin: Are you going to invoke any privilege?
Ron Rale: UHHHH, right to privacy of the decedent uh to the uh…it’s…[laughter] asked and answered…..uh….uh….uh…
DO: It will be faster if he just answers it.
HKS: Look, I don’t have a problem…..Anna Nicole….
Seidlin: One at a time!
JO: We are here to get the truth.
Seidlin: Texas, you got your line in. You can have a seat.
HKS: In Los Angeles, uh, Anna didn’t drive. So ….
DO: So the answer is “yes” sir?
HKS: I picked up prescriptions for her, yes. Other people did too.
DO: Thank you. Did you have a Bank of America debit card tied to Anna Nicole Smith’s checking account?
RR: Objection.
HKS: Do I?
DO: Yes.
HKS: I think she got one, but it was after..
Seidlin: Rale, Rale you got to….
HKS: I think she got one, but it was never activated.
DO: Speaking objection your Honor. Objection
Seidlin: Wait, one voice. There’s only one voice to be heard in this courtroom.
RR: I know we haven’t had discovery, but in this instance I have to object on the basis of foundation. Because it’s kind of like the fruit of the poisonous tree. To the extent that I don’t know where she is coming up with this information that we have….
Seidlin: I’m going to give her some leeway. She’s been pretty quiet for a bunch of days.
RR: OK, thank you, your Honor.
HKS: I think she had one made in my name, and then we never activated it. And that was years ago.
DO: Did you ever charge anything while using her credit cards?
HKS: Sure, with her permission.
DO: Are you aware of a forgery investigation that has just been opened in the Bahamas for forged checks where cash has been going to Santa Monica California I believe.
HKS: No. No, I’m absolutely not.
DO: Were you an officer of ANS Interactive?
HKS: Are you saying…..
Seidlin: Wait a second….you answered….new question, new question…
DO: Were you an officer of ANS Interactive?
HKS: ANS Interactive, um ran Anna Nicole’s website.
DO: Were you an officer of that?
HKS: I don’t know. I don’t know. I never received any funds from it.
DO: Did you open it?
HKS: No, I think it was under ………
Seidlin: How is this going to help us…..
DO: Are you the biological father of Dannielynn?
KB: OHHHH OBJECTION. Come on.
