Lawyer, MDs Charged in Anna Nicole Smith Case

Two years after Anna Nicole Smith's fatal drug overdose, new developments: Authorities in Los Angeles have charged Smith's lawyer-turned-boyfriend, Howard K. Stern, and two of her doctors with conspiracy to provide the former Playboy Playmate with thousands of prescription pills before her death, the Associated Press reports.

Charges against Stern and physician Sandeep Kapoor -- who were released Thursday on $20,000 bond -- include conspiracy, unlawfully prescribing a controlled substance and prescribing, administering or dispensing a controlled substance to an addict. Investigators found 11 medications in Smith's hotel room at the time of her February 2007 death, some under aliases and others in Stern's name.

The second doctor, Khristine Eroshevich, is expected to surrender to authorities Monday. Her attorney acknowledged Eroshevich wrote some prescriptions using fake names for Smith, but said it was done for privacy reasons, not to commit fraud.

But prosecutors allege that all three "repeatedly and excessively furnished thousands of prescription pills to Anna Nicole Smith, often for no legitimate medical purpose." Stern faces six felony counts, and the doctors face seven each.

Interesting story but what really gets me is that if Anna wasn't famous, no one would of cared and charges probably would not have been filed.

The fact that she was famous makes me sick as it is.

The only positive thing about her death is the fact that now we dont have to have her pictures and stories about her shoved down our throats by the MSM.

One of the things that I hate about the MSM, Hollywood, etc, is that people that have no business being looked up to are shoved down our throats and treated special because their pretty, skinny, slutty, etc. It helps the NWO ruin our self esteem and self worth.

I boycott Hollywood, the MSM, network TV, etc. in a big way.

What I really dislike is the neverending story of some kid missing or found dead, like Casey Anthony. For 6 months, you cannot turn on the TV or radio and not find at least one station droning on and on about this one neverending story. It's as if Casey Anthony is the only kid on Earth, when in reality there are kids losing their lives in accidents and killings, and being abducted, everyday and we never hear about that.

There's really no such thing as real investigative news on TV anymore. It's dumbed-down newstainment.

I totally agree with you.

On another note: People that actually get caught up in this Anna Nicole crap are fucking pathetic.
