Anna Nicole’s death was accidental, say officials


The Seminole Police Department Chief has announced his official findings along with the coroner’s results and states that Anna Nicole died of an accidental drug interaction complicated by a blood infection and intestinal problems. No foul play is suspected and no further investigation will occur at this time.

There were nine prescription drugs in Anna’s body, including human growth hormone, methadone and valium, but the coroner says that the sleeping medication choral hydrate is the one that caused the most problems. It is said to have acted as a central nervous system depressant in combination with the anti-anxiety and antidepressant medication that she was taking. Anna had infected abcesses on her buttocks from injections with medication and a ruptured abcess from another injected to that area led to a bacterial infection that raged throughout her body prior to her death. It seems that The National Enquirer and Star magazine were correct in their early joint report about the cause of Anna’s death.

We reported earlier today that a mysterious person, most likely Howard K. Stern, was seen leaving Anna’s suite in the key time before her death, and that Howard acted suspiciously and went missing right before she was found to be unresponsive in her hotel room. I still don’t think that Anna’s death was accidental, although with a woman on as many drugs as Anna and with as lengthy a history of personal problems, it’s easy to accept that explanation. All you have to do is watch a few episodes of Law & Order and/or get online and it seems relatively easy to figure out how to kill someone nonviolently without being detected.

Still, cops said they poured over Anna’s laptop computer, the one she told a friend to seize in case “something ever happens,” and found no evidence that she was suicidal or suspicious of anyone. They also viewed hours of the hotel videotape and saw nothing that indicated foul play there, either.

The inquest into Anna’s son Daniel’s death is due to start in the Bahamas on Monday. Considering who was probably involved, I bet he was too sneaky to be caught for that murder, either.

RIP Anna and please RIP this story, although it’s sure to get more coverage due to the ongoing issues of Dannielynn’s custody and paternity and Daniel’s cause of death.

    It’s really sad that she was too drugged out (and troubled) to realize how much damage she was doing to herself with all of the drugs she was taking. Did she understand that a drug cocktail like that (human growth hormone, WTF? I know it’s supposed to make you look and feel younger, but it also has serious side effects and is illegal to use for cosmetic reasons.), or was she too self-destructive to care? I just hope this generational self-abuse ends with Anna.

    I meant to say: “didn’t she realize that a drug cocktail like that could kill her?”

  3. Poor Boopie says:

    9 different drugs? Ass abcesses? Christ on a stick! This woman was a fucking mess!

  4. Poor Boopie says:

    Are there any pharmacists out there? Why would a adult woman be taking human growth hormone?

  5. snappyfish says:

    human growth hormone helps people lose weight. It can be taken orally or by injection. Your brain stops producing HGH by the age of 25. It has become all the rage in the looking young forever movement. It is also highly toxic, as it is a steroid

    oh, all those poor, misguided, clueless people – Anna and all her enablers. Apparently you can die from stupidity. That means, probably over a dozen people daily looking the other way while she slowly poisoned herself, while the others had their little agendas to fill instead of getting her help. For shame, all of them.

    The sadness and needlessness of all this is without description.

    You would think that some of these prescribing doctors could be getting in shit right about now.

  8. Scottish Shortbread says:

    Sooo, I’m wondering why no one is talking about how Anna’s son Danniel was talking to a PI about not trusting Howard… Right… before… he… died…

    Nothing shady about that, no sir, not at all…

    I guess people just hear what they want to hear. If you listened closely to what Dr perper was trying to tell the world. He is not in the position to call this one. 9 durgs plus OTC Benadral was in her blood. He didn’t say she took the durgs on her own. But what he did say was that, it was the Choral Hydrate that put her over the edge. Choral Hydrate breaks down in the blood 4 min. after entering into the blood steam. The test would never show at what high levels it might have been given to cause death. On FEB. 8 2006 Amma Nicole Smith died. She came to Florida to buy a boat, little did she know that she would be sailing into the perfect storm and drown in drugs. As for HK$ I guess you can fool all the people all of the time.

    How close was Anna Nicole Smith to the psychiatrist who prescribed all those drugs for her? Very close, it seems. Maybe too close. In fact, they were next-door neighbors.

    Real estate records for both Anna Nicole and Dr. Khristine Eroshevich reveal that the patient and her doctor actually lived next door to each other in million-dollar homes in Studio City, Calif. Even Tony Soprano doesn’t have that close a relationship with Dr. Melfi!

    Public records indicate that Eroshevich and her husband, Wes Irwin, live at 3656 Avenida Del Sol in Studio City. Their house is listed as a four-bath, four-bedroom set-up purchased in 2002 for $925,000. Eroshevich bought the house with a mortgage of $693,750. In 2006, according to public records, the total value was $980,335. And yes, the house has a pool.

    Oddly, right next door at 3646 Avenida Del Sol is a home owned by Smith and Howard K. Stern. The home was purchased in 2004 for $1,335,000, with a $934,500 mortgage from a private firm in Burbank, Calif., called J&R Lending.

    The deal wasn’t finalized until almost a year later and the home was registered to a company called Hot Smoochie Lips, Inc. Stern and Smith were the only officers of that company. A woman who answered the phone at J&R said the loan had been subsequently sold, but refused to give any more information.

    (Someone should tell Stern’s parents he owns real estate. Stern testified under oath to that clueless probate judge in Florida, Larry Seidlin, that he was living off his parents and had no money.)

    But the bigger question now is: What was the real relationship between Eroshevich and Stern/Smith? The autopsy results listed nine drugs in Smith’s system, nearly all of them ordered by Eroshevich. The doctor also said in a TV interview with “The Insider” that she administered all the drugs personally. She herself cited chloral hydrate as one of them.

    Smith’s medical examiner said in his press conference that it was an accidental overdose of chloral hydrate and other drugs that caused Smith’s death.
