Do You Think Howard K Stern had a Hand in the Death of Anna Nicole and Son Daniels Death ?

January 15th, 2010 Leave a comment Go to comments

Following very closely the court proceedings in Florida regarding who gets custody of the remains of Anna Nicole Smith has brought several issues to light. :

1.) Howard K.Stern essentially has/had no income of his own and that Anna Nicole Smith was supporting him.

2.) Howard was the one who obtained her prescription drugs for her-even though he knew that she was obtaining these under an assumed name at times.

3.) Howard Stern was the one who signed the contract for the burial plots in the Bahamas.

4.) Apparently according to the lawyer for anna’s mother, he had proof ( a fax record he had obtained) that Howard Stern recieved a copy of Anna’s will, five whole days before she even died !!

5.) it was mentioned in court that if Howard truly loved her-How could he allow her to continue this drug use ?

6.) As Anna was seemingly in a on again off again drug haze,How could she have the sound mind to write a will,let alone sign one and let alone choose a gravesite for herself

First of all, I do not think Anna and Howard k ever had a physical relationship. If you ever watched her reality show on E- she may have screwed everyone else—but not Howard. She would often get mad at him and tell him his problem was he needed to get some so he wouldnt be so bitchy.
But for some reason he was always there. She was his one and only client. He could have made major bucks being a lawyer, but instead chose to suck off of her and wait on the big settlement. He had his eye on more than just the fee he would receive.
Why the problem with Birkhead? Well what do you think would happen to Howard if they got serious? Do you think he would still sleep on the couch. Howard knew he had to do something to keep her out of a committed relationship that might lead to marriage. It was o.k for her to screw around , but when she got a serious relationship, this threatened his free ride.
The one common denominator in this is methodone. It was in the house, administered by howard- by his own admission and while she was pregnant. Anna did not drive. Others went on pharmacy trips for her , etc. Daniel was known not to do drugs and even be on his moms case a lot for drug use. He was a straight A student. Maybe he was on a rx antidepressant, but would not be on methadone. A witness told police that Howard flushed drugs down the toilet after Daniel died.
The same witness also testified that Anna told him Larry birkhead was the father, but she wanted to take him out of her life and the babys. She asked his advice on where she could move so he could not have any rights. The freind suggested the Bahamas ,because they legally consider the name on the birth cert. This is the only reason she went. She went expressly for this reason.
I think Howard had her so drugged up so he could call all the shots. The whole time she was pregnant, noone but Larry was ever even mentioned as the father until they broke up. He was there for everything.
Maybe a drug addict does need to make the choice for themselves, but someone sneaking in a duffle bag full of drugs while a pregnant woman is detoxing? What drug addict could fight and deal with that?
Another thing- HKS contradicted hisself several times on the stand. First- he said anna talked about death since her met her . he said she thought she would die young and was obsessed about death. He also said she thought she would did giving birth. She tried to kill herself just two weeks prior.YET- when asked why she didnt change the will since Dannielyn was born (after all he was her attorney) and provide for spouses, children , etc.-Howard stern said "Anna didnt think she would die- and I didnt think she was going to die."
What? This is her attorney who helps direct and prepare wills . He doesnt think a new will is a good idea for a suicidal drug addict that talked about dying all the time? WEIRD
If any of you visit TMZ.com , you will see that HKS has all but conceded Larry is the father— but he wants to negotiate and let Larry have his child, if he gets the other Bahamian house and yaught- and get this—- stays the legal trustee over Danielynn. A man that does not work wants control over this childs inheritance.Basically, he is saying Larry Birkhead could buy his own baby.
This is all definitly motive. Did anyone see the clown tape? Watch in on www.tmz.com Anna is high out of her mind and 8 mo pregnant, and howard is taping her in clown makup and telling her "this footage is gonna be worth a lot of money"
BTW, other than in court, HKS is obviously stoned out of his mind half the time.After Danny died he did the interview on larry king. He was like he is most of the time. Eyes bulging and red, constant slurred speach. Anna was not the only one doing methadone. The court needs to order a drug test for Howard Stern . Social services should step in.
This child was living in a household where methadone is just sitting in the fridge. But not groceries of any kind. Other than slim fast. This child has no chance in a home like this.
I dont think howard loved her. I think she was his cash cow. She needed someone though to help her get things that other assistants would probably not do. But she really thought as her friend, he could manipulate her into taking whatever her wanted. It really is a perfect idea. Daniel was the only heir– now he is gone . Now Dannielynn. Since anna is dead this is the only heir, and because of the Bahamian law which I am sure, Howard the lawyer researched, he could become instant daddy legally, and if Anna died- father of the only heir.
I think he talked a drugged and dazed anna into a ceremony. He probably scared her and said, look, if he is the father he could get custody and even the money. I am sure that is why they did a commitment ceremony to make it look legit. But Anna could have legally married him just as easily but didnt. She did not want to. She just wanted to stage this with howard thinking she was being smart protecting her assets from anyone claiming paternity. She trusted howard enough to not be worried with him having this title as father. She never thought he would hurt her.
If HKS did not kill her through homicide, he at least contributed to her death . And there is no doubt, he is all about the money. Her body wasnt even cold yet and he let ET fly with him and do this sickening interview with him holding the baby. He got HUGE bucks for this. He supposedly is her current lover, but is able to do interviews and make big $$ hours later?
I think that if the Bahamas will not enforce DNA testing, then Americans should boycott the Bahamas. This baby wont be a baby for long. She is growing up and Birkhead is missing things he will never get back. His child is in a drug den and noone will help him.

    If he provided the money or means for Anna and her son’s drugs that killed them, then yes he had a hand in their deaths!

    He contributed by enabling her but I don’t think he had any intent to kill her or Daniel. It was not suspicious that he signed for the burial plots because that is what lawyers are supposed to do especially when their client is grieving.

    I agree 100% with "leave me alone." I think he killed both the son and mother. He has medicated her in order to control her. I’ve been watching the court proceedings every day. Howard Stern is a sick, twisted little dweeb. It’s all going to come out, and he will end up in jail.

    1.Howard worked as an assistant, a lawyer, a go-between and an adviser for Anna. In return she supported him. Nothing weird there.

    2.Many famous people use aliases when picking up medication, booking a hotel, or reserving a table at a restaurant. To date we must assume that Howard picked up legally prescribed drugs for her, that’s not a crime.

    3.As her assistant it would not be unusual to have him sign a contract. As a grieving mother, she may not have wanted to deal with the purchase of burial plots.

    4.the fax was received 5 days after she died. the lawyer had forgotten to change the date on his home fax machine so it was stamped with the wrong date.

    5. It is impossible to change an addict without their wanting to change themselves. If Anna loved herself she wouldn’t have done it.

    6. You can be stoned out of your mind and still make a decision. It doesn’t mean it wouldn’t be the same decision as if you were sober. When her son died she was forced to accept the reality of death and had to make a decision on where to bury him. Most people don’t have the luxury of knowing when their loved ones will die and most mothers of 19 year olds aren’t planning on it.

    I seize here the opportunity to express myself on the late Anna Nicole Smith.
    To me the whole story is a can of worms.
    J have no idea whether H Stern played a part in her death. But many questions come to mind…
    What part played Anna in her son’s involvement with drugs?
    As she was so obviously distressed after her son’s death, how come Stern didn’t get her to seek professional help to deal with it and with her own drug problem?
    How come her mother didn’t try to reconciliate with Anna after Daniel’s death or/and when Dannielynn was born?
    How come no one in Anna Nicole entourage tried to help her with her sorrow and addictions?
    How come no one says "I love Dannielynn and want to bring her up" instead of just insisting "I am the father"…
    Through this whole sorry business, it seems to me Annna Nicole was viewed and used as a way to make money… Seems people cared only about her public image not about the human being. I think she led a life too big for her, she was probably not very bright and badly armed to deal with the medias and their rendering of her image.
    I see her as an overgrown Barbie doll, pathetically trying to deal with the real world…
    We should now let her rest in peace, whereeve that might be, but at least alongside her son.
    And I deeply wish that little girl will end up with a father that will love her for what she is and not for the potential fortune she might one day inherit…
    I believe we have the stars and the governements we deserve….
    Our actual stars (incessantly coming in and out of rehab, divorcing and remarrying…) and politicians (thinking only of making America richer and considering all human beings expendable…) don’t reflect a very good image of the American people to say the list…..
    When are we going to go for real values????????

    Right and lets add Number s 7 and 8.

    Why would he bring sacks of "goodies" to the hospital to a pregnant woman in that hospital suffering distress from drugs and who he calls his wife and having his child? Who would allow that to the unborn fetus he calls his?
    8. Why would he haul a sick woman with nurse in tow to Florida to buy a stupid boat? Who is the boat for? Yeah…Him who enters court on borrowed money.

    This is pop culture 2007 style! What in the world have we come to? Stern looks like a Class A Bottom Feeder.

    Stay tuned…it will get worse.

    It’s amazing what a person can do when there being coaxed & influenced by someone else. She didn’t make all those decisions on her own, she had plenty of help. When she was stoned out of her mind at 8 mos pregnant, what kind of a loving person would shoot video of this & laugh & joke while doing it. He made reference to the footage making money. He’s not someone I’d want in my life. And definitley not to be the father of my child.He’s an enabler. Sure she used the drugs, so that makes her wrong. But he supplied them, some even had his name on the bottle & he didn’t do too much to try & stop her. He did whatever he had to do to keep his meal ticket.

    I feel Howard K Stern was deeply in love with his wife, Anna Nicole. So, no, I don’t think he had a hand in her suicide.

    Larry Birkhead is a complete loser, he only wants to baby for the possible inheritance. He has a two year old son he doesn’t even pay child support for.

    Yup. Sure is suspicious, isn’t it. Also the other things that came out in court, showing what a sleaze-bag he really is. The bastard. I hope he ends up homeless on the streets holding a "WILL LITIGATE FOR FOOD" sign! I can’t believe he’s getting away it.

    Yes I think he had a hand in the whole deal. Larry Birkhead told it in court and that video of her messed up while 8 mos pregnant told it all.Howard loved living off Anna and bleeding her dry.Gosh wonder how he will take care of himself now? Mommy and daddy gonna take care of him? Pretty sad a grown man cant take care of his own life and has to live off of a woman.And now trying to live off of a 5 month old baby. He is a sick f*@#!

    I believe 100 percent that he is not guilty of causing her death.
    He like millions of other men and women did enable their loved one to continue to use drugs.
    I don’t believe he provided drugs for her.
    I don’t believe he took advantage of her.
    I do believe that he was crazy in love with her and little Dannieylnn.
    Howard K. Stern comes from a very wealthy family who gave him money when needed.
    He does not need the money.

    No, I think he loved her very much. I have followed this case very closely for the last almost 3 years. I also followed Anna’s life before she and Daniel passed away, unlike a lot of people who are now sudden “fans”.
    As someone who has to take painkillers and anti-anxiety medication, I believe she was in control of her own actions. I believe all of this being charged as an enabler is B.S and it blurs a line if he is convicted, creates a scary new presedence. I think he loved and still loves her very much. If he wanted money, why would he kill the two people who might even still have a chance of inheriting Marshall’s money? It doesn’t make any sense, because Anna AND Daniel were both far more likely to get J. Howard’s money than Dannielynn ever will be, someone who never met him. People need to just think, monitary gain does not make sense with them dead. Also, so many people, people who hadn’t spoken to her for 25 years/didn’t know her are making TONS of money off of “tell-all”s. Why would he not do that?
    People forget that the first person to say “foul play” was Jackie Hatten, sister of Mark “Hollywood” Hatten, Anna’s STALKER who went to jail for 7 years for what he did to her. And Jackie & Anna were far from best friends. Her brother was due out later that year, and luckily for him, people were looking for someone to blame for Anna’s death. He would look a lot better as someone who was ripped away from Anna by evil Stern than he would for what he really did. So, she obviously had motive to say that. Anna admitted to a two-week relationship with him, and now they are both shamelessly using pix from that period to make names for themselves (Mark trying to get a reality tv show, book, or movie deal, anything he can)…..But I digress, Stern was with Anna for 10 years, if people were willing to buy books by these nobodies (Rita Cosby’s work of fiction, her half-sister who hadn’t spoken to her), surely they would be interested in reading one by someone who was actually IN her life. But he has not even attempted to write a book about his life with her, even telling his side.
    I want to go back to the medication, the enabling. As I admitted, I am on some of the same or similar meds as Anna Nicole was. And if I was in as much pain from losing someone as close as Daniel was to Anna, her son, my boyfriend sure as hell wouldn’t know what to do. It may be easy to say, “If you love someone, you wouldn’t let them take that many meds” but in reality it is a lot harder to watch someone go through the pain and turn them down. Also, the assumption would be that the medication is prescribed in the amount it is for a reason. And while I think the doctors acted poorly and deserve to be in this situation more than Stern because they ARE doctors, I believe they let their friendships cloud their judgement in not wanting to see her in pain, so giving her what she wanted or it may have seemed like she needed. I’m not saying it’s right, but that’s what I think of the doctors. I don’t think Howard deserves to be in the same seat as them. Also, the majority of people who were close to Anna in more recent years all say that he would never do anything to hurt her. Instead people like to listen to the more dramatic version (even though this story is already full of it). I have been a fan of Anna’s for a LONG time and am probably her biggest fan. I have an Anna tattoo, I have visited her and Daniel’s memorial site in the Bahamas, which I chose for vacation specifically for that reason. So, this case is obviously important to me, not just something I follow in the tabloids (and no, I am not crazy, my LEGAL name IS Leeanne Nicole).
    Howard is the first person in U.S or Canadian history to be charged as an “enabler”…..What’s next charging parents/friends of people on Intervention for not turning their loved ones away when they are still on drugs? And even that is different, because although an addict, Anna DID need her medication. She had just gone through something more traumatic than most anyone can imagine. She was in extreme emotional and physical pain. Also, the infamous clown video, methadone does mess people up in small doses. Had she not been on methadone, Dannielynn would’ve died, period. All Howard is guilty of in that video is by some opinion, a bad sense of humour. But that is how they joked together.
    I think it is time to leave this poor man alone with his grief. Anna was his life, and he’s lost enough.
    R.I.P. Anna Nicole and Daniel Wayne Smith.

    I think we need to look at the big picture here. First the son dies of drug over dose. Notice that in all of the recent court hearings the idea of drug use with the son has never even came up. It is almost like oh well he died. Then 5 months later Anna Nicole dies. All of this happens while Howard K Stern is present. The funny thing is when she died they said their was no sign of foul play. I am not sure who was in charge of this investigation but here you have Howard K Stern who has lived off of Anna Nicole for who knows how long. He really has not had his own income, and he is one greedy basterd. In my opinion he was not only there but he also took part in the drug use making sure that Anna had the drugs. On top of this you have this educated man who claims to be an attorney handing out drugs like candy. I am sorry but any way that you look at this Howard K Stern took the oprotunity to kill off the son Kow her know he wants the money. Any normal police officer, investigater, or judge should be able to see the big picture. The botto line is MR Howard K Stern should not have that little baby and he should be locked up.

    First of all, I do not think Anna and Howard k ever had a physical relationship. If you ever watched her reality show on E- she may have screwed everyone else—but not Howard. She would often get mad at him and tell him his problem was he needed to get some so he wouldnt be so bitchy.
    But for some reason he was always there. She was his one and only client. He could have made major bucks being a lawyer, but instead chose to suck off of her and wait on the big settlement. He had his eye on more than just the fee he would receive.
    Why the problem with Birkhead? Well what do you think would happen to Howard if they got serious? Do you think he would still sleep on the couch. Howard knew he had to do something to keep her out of a committed relationship that might lead to marriage. It was o.k for her to screw around , but when she got a serious relationship, this threatened his free ride.

She asked his advice on where she could move so he could not have any rights. The freind suggested the Bahamas ,because they legally consider the name on the birth cert. This is the only reason she went. She went expressly for this reason.
    I think Howard had her so drugged up so he could call all the shots. The whole time she was pregnant, noone but Larry was ever even mentioned as the father until they broke up. He was there for everything.
    Maybe a drug addict does need to make the choice for themselves, but someone sneaking in a duffle bag full of drugs while a pregnant woman is detoxing? What drug addict could fight and deal with that?
    Another thing- HKS contradicted hisself several times on the stand. First- he said anna talked about death since her met her . he said she thought she would die young and was obsessed about death. He also said she thought she would did giving birth.

    What? This is her attorney who helps direct and prepare wills . He doesnt think a new will is a good idea for a suicidal drug addict that talked about dying all the time? WEIRD
    If any of you visit TMZ.com , you will see that HKS has all but conceded Larry is the father— but he wants to negotiate and let Larry have his child, if he gets the other Bahamian house and yaught- and get this—- stays the legal trustee over Danielynn. A man that does not work wants control over this childs inheritance.Basically, he is saying Larry Birkhead could buy his own baby.
    This is all definitly motive. Did anyone see the clown tape? Watch in on http://www.tmz.com Anna is high out of her mind and 8 mo pregnant, and howard is taping her in clown makup and telling her "this footage is gonna be worth a lot of money"

    This child was living in a household where methadone is just sitting in the fridge. But not groceries of any kind. Other than slim fast. This child has no chance in a home like this.
    I dont think howard loved her. I think she was his cash cow. She needed someone though to help her get things that other assistants would probably not do. But she really thought as her friend, he could manipulate her into taking whatever her wanted. It really is a perfect idea. Daniel was the only heir– now he is gone . Now Dannielynn. Since anna is dead this is the only heir, and because of the Bahamian law which I am sure, Howard the lawyer researched, he could become instant daddy legally, and if Anna died- father of the only heir.
    I think he talked a drugged and dazed anna into a ceremony. He probably scared her and said, look, if he is the father he could get custody and even the money. I am sure that is why they did a commitment ceremony to make it look legit. But Anna could have legally married him just as easily but didnt. She did not want to. She just wanted to stage this with howard thinking she was being smart protecting her assets from anyone claiming paternity. She trusted howard enough to not be worried with him having this title as father. She never thought he would hurt her.
    If HKS did not kill her through homicide, he at least contributed to her death . And there is no doubt, he is all about the money. Her body wasnt even cold yet and he let ET fly with him and do this sickening interview with him holding the baby. He got HUGE bucks for this. He supposedly is her current lover, but is able to do interviews and make big $$ hours later?
    I think that if the Bahamas will not enforce DNA testing, then Americans should boycott the Bahamas. This baby wont be a baby for long. She is growing up and Birkhead is missing things he will never get back. His child is in a drug den and noone will help him.
