I always like her too but I felt sorry for her, such a tragic life.

She seemed to be manipulated by those around her, I wondered if there was anyone, currently living, that really cared about her.

Apparently the lawyer was around for both deaths. This is starting to look like the last days of the Roman Empire.

You got that right! I am just surprised the infant is not dead.

This news resulted in an ABC breaking news radio bulletin that interrupted regular programming.

Add her name to the long list of women who are used abused and discarded by the entertainment establishment.

I smell suicide

Nah, I'm figuring accidental drug overdose.

I think you are correct. The problem with ugliness is on the inside. We should be dealing with ideas, not appearances.

I have seen shots of Lady Macbeth Clinton where she was downright attractive (long ago). I am not against her looks but her ideas and methods. Likewise, Helen Thomas is not a newsperson but a plant for evil people.

I hope they build a shrine for A.N.S. in Mexia, Texas. I drove near there once. She started out frying chicken or working at a fried chicken place. Her life was sad. We all contribute to that, I believe. Celebrity kills.

Justices gave new legal impetus to Smith's bid to collect millions of dollars from the estate of J. Howard Marshall II. Her late husband's estate has been estimated at as much as $1.6 billion.

Would NOT be intentional suicide, that's for sure...They (police/homocide) needs to do a THOROUGH background on this Howard Stern character. And put the baby girl in "protective custody" far away from him! Wasn't there to be a DNA test today? THAT's no coincidence EITHER

Daniel Smith died Sept. 10 in his mother's hospital room in the Bahamas, just days after she gave birth to a daughter.

An American medical examiner hired by the family, Cyril Wecht, said he had methadone and two antidepressants in his system when he died. Low levels of the three drugs interacted to cause an accidental death, Wecht said.

Meanwhile, the paternity of her now 5-month-old daughter remained a matter of dispute.

She was born Vickie Lynn Hogan on Nov. 28, 1967, in Houston, one of six children of Donald Eugene and Virgie Hart Hogan.

She married Bill Smith in 1985, giving birth to Daniel before divorcing two years later.

This portion of the article is darn near incoherent.

"She was due to check out tomorrow."

Looks like she checked out a day early.

She resembled the late actress Marilyn Monroe

In what universe?

Actually sounds like the TrimSpa product killed her. These diet drugs often cause dangerous heart damage.

A court needs to appoint a heavy-duty independent legal guardian for this poor little infant before sundown. And order round-the-clock security for her.

Problem is, the baby was left in the Bahamas. I doubt that US law can reach her there. Which makes all my bells and whistles go off.

Besides the photographer who claims to be the baby's father (and may well be, because she LOOKS LIKE him), there are TWO other claimants. One is her lawyer Howard K. Stern, which we all know about. The baby does not resemble him in any way.

The other surfaced just last night on Entertainment Tonight. Two middle aged (maybe 55 - 60 yrs old) FL men were interviewed in the Bahamas. One claimed to be the baby's father. One (perhaps the same one) owns the house that Anna Nicole rented in the Bahamas. In the interview, the owner of the house said he was evicting Anna Nicole because the house was being used for unspecified stuff he didn't approve of. Could have been lousy housekeeping, might have been bodies turning up in the pool. The fellow who claimed to be the baby's father had the right coloring and features, and he claimed to have been intimate with Anna Nicole, which also sounds right, because she was apparently very promiscuous. Maybe she got a deal on the house because she slept with him.

Details, details. The ugly puzzle I'm piecing together is Anna Nicole surrounded by three men who were much smarter than she was, saying they were taking care of her interests, but really only taking care of their own. Anyone close to her could see how at risk she was of dying from drugs or alcohol on purpose or accidentally. Were the two middle aged guys in cahoots with Howard K Stern? Did they plan to get Anna Nicole out of the Bahamas so she could fulfill her threats to commit suicide (which she might have been making...I recall seeing her on gossip tv recently saying she could just end it all.) By leaving the baby in the Bahamas, they've effectively removed her from US jurisdiction, I think.

Well, so much for my fertile imagination. Perhaps Anna Nicole was an avalanche on a path of self-destruction no one could have prevented. Maybe the people around her sincerely wanted to help. But this sleazy FL fellow claiming paternity just last night on tv makes me very suspicious that something nefariou is up. Or maybe it was just the last straw for Anna Nicole Smith who knowingly and willingly took a lethal dose of pills. But wasn't that predictable too?

Who in J. Howard Marshall's family benefits from her death?
