Anna Nicole's Drug Enablers FINALLY In Hot Water? - Page 4
Stern, 40, and the two doctors are charged with conspiracy and prescribing painkillers, sleeping pills, anxiety medications and other drugs to Smith between 2004 and her death on Feb 8, 2007 from an overdose of prescription drugs.
Wesley began the hearing by issuing a bench warrant for Kapoor, 41, after the doctor didn't turn up but quashed it after he arrived late, saying that a patient had an emergency.
Stern and the two doctors are accused of obtaining the pills for Smith by using false names, but their lawyers say they were merely carrying out Smith's wishes and that the drugs were prescribed for legitimate medical reasons.
Smith, who was 39 when she died, is best known as a Playboy Playmate and Guess jeans model. With her buxom blond looks, she often emulated Marilyn Monroe, who died of a drug overdose in August, 1962 at the age of 36.
If convicted, all three defendants could face more than 5 years in prison.
Smith was found unresponsive at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida on February 8, 2007 and was pronounced dead at a local hospital within hours.
Her death came shortly after the birth of her daughter and the death of her 20-year-old son, who also died of an overdose from prescription drugs and methadone.
So Vickey Lynne Hogan, (Anna's real name when she was born) and son Daniel may you Rest in Peace. Hopefully SOME justice may be right around the corner.
