Anna Nicole’s doctors under investigation

annanicoledoc2.jpg
It’s been a while since we’ve had an Anna Nicole Smith story. TMZ is reporting that the California Department of Justice is investigating two of Smith’s doctors. Remember all those years of crazy, half-asleep interviews she gave? Turns out it wasn’t just the Trim Spa! Okay we all knew that, but it appears that the California DOJ knows it too, and is interested enough to take some action.

“Sources tell TMZ the DOJ’s Bureau of Narcotics Enforcement has contacted Larry Birkhead, Big Mo (Anna’s bodyguard) and others. We’re told DOJ is particularly interested in two doctors — Khristine Eroshevich and Sandeep Kapoor. TMZ broke the story that Dr. Kapoor prescribed methadone to Anna under an assumed name when she was eight months pregnant. Dr. Eroshevich ordered a virtual pharmacy of drugs for Anna, five days after her son Daniel died.”

Anna’s life was so tragic, and she was responsible for a lot of it. But you can’t help but feel terribly for someone who experienced so much tragedy. I don’t have kids, but I can tell you that God forbid should anything happen, I’d want a pharmacy prescribed to me too. The point of having good people around is that they look out for you during those times, and don’t actually prescribe half the Merck Pharmaceuticals manual to you. Dr. Sandeep Kapoor prescribed a crazy amount of drugs for Anna, including Dilaudid (Hydromorphone), Lorazapam (Ativan), Soma (Carisoprodol), Prexige (Lumiracoxib), and Methadone. Those are all some pretty serious medications, few of which are safe to combine. I can’t help but wonder who in Anna’s circle feels responsible for her death. She was surrounded by enablers. Do any of them really see what role they played in her life? Each person is responsible for their own decisions, and Anna was responsible for her own choices, including the choices to keep a lot of “yes men” around her. But at some point the woman was clearly so out of it. Lots of people, not just one or two, should have stepped in. Hopefully her doctors will be thoroughly investigated, and have their medical licenses taken away if appropriate.
