DEBRA OPRI FILES LAWSUIT AGAINST SLEEZE LARRY BIRKHEAD FOR SLANDER
The father of Anna Nicole Smith's infant daughter was sued by his former attorney, who claims Larry Birkhead attempted to damage her reputation by making defamatory remarks. Debra Opri's lawsuit, filed Monday, accuses Birkhead of falsely claiming in a CNN interview that she was a source for "Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story Behind Anna Nicole Smith's Death." The book, by journalist Rita Cosby, claims Birkhead worked with Howard K. Stern, Smith's lawyer and sometime boyfriend, to manipulate the media and maximize profits after Smith died.Opri denies providing information to Cosby. She contends his defamatory remarks were "planned and malicious."An after-hours call to Birkhead's attorney, Michael Trope, was not immediately returned.The lawsuit claims defamation, fraud and other allegations, and seeks damages, including about $200,000 Opri says she spent to hire a crisis management firm to "salvage" her reputation. It was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court Monday, she said. Birkhead and Opri also are locked in a separate court battle over legal bills from the Smith paternity case. In December, a Los Angeles judge ruled in Birkhead's favor in the paternity case and a DNA test later revealed that he was the father of Smith's daughter. Meanwhile, Cosby's book continues to be on The New York Times bestseller list.

What doc?
THANK YOU RITA! THANK YOU OPRI! GET THEM ON THE STAND! ENOUGH OF LARRY SUE AND HOWARD SUE!
He'll try to establish sympathy on behalf of the innocent child from the public supporters he lost, however we'll never, again, buy into his pretense and lies. It appears that he even fooled his own original attorney!
Hopefully, he has a strong family support system to get him through the karma created from the choices made as he saddled up with Stern and Rale.
Larry, it's time to begin living with maturity, DIGNITY, honor, and ethics just like other fathers of this world! Fathers do not avoid their bills and, especially, those of the original attorney who worked diligently on their behalf! Fathers do not help others heist homes in the Bahamas and the estates of strangers who created them on behalf of their own lineage through hard work!
MOVE THAT BUS, DEBRA AND RITA!
Proud,

The actual court filings. As much as I hated to give tmz a click, I did, but the "lawsuit" link is bad.
Hmmm...wonder if larry made them take it down?
Larry Birkhead has responded to Debra Opri's defamation suit.
Opri claims, among other things, that Birkhead slandered her on "Larry King Live," where he said Opri leaked confidential documents to Rita Cosby in his paternity case.
This morning, Birkhead's lawyer, Michael Trope told TMZ, "The defense that we will file in this case will be simple. Truth is a defense."
Yes. Truth has ALWAYS been the best defense! GO OPRI! HE HAS THE CASH NOW FOR SURE! Ask Dannielynn...
Court filings are public record.
CU got work! TTYL
Thanks. I was able to open it via netscape by right clicking and then choosing to "open in new window"

I don't know if c/p will work, but that's the link.
I say Rita Cosby should follow suit, no pun intended. And Virgie Arthur? She has imo definite grounds and cause to sue for slander, libel, defamation, mental and emotional anguish...on and on.
Yesterday, I innocently posted the e for Rale.. it is on one of the Times Square accounts. Drop them an e!
Thanks.
ALERT!!!! You might want to remove the entire (re-post) @
12:54 PM.
by one of the infamous and vile Stern supporters from TMZ who is violating your site with her vulgar language, AGAIN!
Nana lately? Hmmmm Just miss her posts!
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
are you kidding??
Birkhead is a dirtbag, but one of you people supporting this dirty skank explain to me how she is any better than he is after reading that. What a dumb slut.
ALERT!
4:00 PM post needs to be REMOVED for foul language.
Guess it takes one to know one, eh?
"The lawsuit claims defamation, fraud and other allegations, and seeks damages, including about $200,000 Opri says she spent to hire a crisis management firm to "salvage" her reputation."
HAHAHAHAHAHAH
are you kidding??
Birkhead is a dirtbag, but one of you people supporting this dirty trollop (Opri) explain to me how she is any better than he is after reading that. What a dumb scallywag.
>>Guess it takes one to know one, eh?<<
GOOD ARGUMENT!!! You are genius. Was you win 1 of theh 15 MacArther grants??
Wow. Anyways.. I AM a dirtbag. So what? Not the point.
Point: There can be degrees of dirt bagishness. I am not quite deserving of Birkheads level and I am also not as radical as Opri. I am simply asking how all of you people can be fans of Opri after reading the above quote and realizing that Birkhead and Opri are one and the same in their pathetic drive for attention and dollar. Explain.
SAY SOMETHING OTHER THAN - NO U!!!
Gather the post and copy/paste it into an email to James. His e mail address is located at the top of the page. He is good at listening.
The former lawyer of Larry Birkhead is ready to rumble. Debra Opri announced yesterday that she was filing suit in L.A. Superior Court, charging her former client with defamation, breach of contract and fraud. Opri claims that after she terminated "our legal relationship, [Birkhead] began a malicious and relentless media campaign to ... destroy my reputation." She says she'll donate proceeds from the suit to the Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Meanwhile, we hear several players in the Anna Nicole Smith drama have filed complaints with authorities, claiming Birkhead made threatening phone calls to them. According to a source, the complainants allege he's trying to "intimidate" them because they could be witnesses in legal actions.

He has now put up a post about Opri and is asking for comments so they can humiliate her.
He doesn't seem to play well with women does he. Rita? Debra? Well atleast he has Stern. *barf*
carolyn said...
When Stern is behind bars
Mr. L. Wood the "monster" who bullies everyone should be taken down a peg or two.
Yes he should and if he wants to take away freddon of speech and the press then maybe Mr. Lin Wood ESQ should go live in Iraq or Iran. Did he ever fight in a war for our freedom? Well my dad did and I am using mine.(I still think he is hot though)
Stern and Birkhead were screaming "defamation suit" right before and when Rita's book came out.
Debra said nothing to the media, but went ahead and did in fact file suit against Birkhead.
Actions speak louder than words, and Stern and Birkhead are full of hot air. So where are the lawsuits against Rita? I won't be holding my breath.
I am waiting on the law suits to Ritas books. There are none. Larry can't keep up the all the law suits against him.
Art Harris makes almost everyone sick just to look at him. His teeth are really in bad shape. He is a paid Et and Insider person.
They have copied and pasted looooooonnng repetitive comments and called people sluts. Earlier there was a comment and the say person spelled slut with two ss.
Everyone needs to email James at the top of this site so he can turn this over and track this lunatic.
You can go on harassing sites, speaking ill of people and continue displaying poor examples of human behavior BUT the TRUTH WILL COME OUT. You might be able to delay it, but it won't be denied no matter how much you want to disgust others. Howie, people haven't forgotten Daniel. You are going down!
Opri's a little hard for me to take but I support her in her suit against Larry. Larry is weak and afraid. He's learned well from Howie. He's drugging it, arrogant and greedy.
As for Larry, this evening I've decided to give up hope on him. He will only change if it saves him from jail or the loss of Dannielynn. A sad example of a human being but a great example of a weak person.
GO RITA!!!!!
GO VIRGIE!!!
GO JAMES!!!!
James
Larry looks like a liar, acts like a liar and is a in my opnion on something.
You need help Larry!
Rita thank you for having enough guts to expose the truth, which we have been screaming about on tmz for months.
James thank you for this site.
James
I've started to wonder if embryo's were sold for cash. All of the talk of frozen sperm donations seemed kind of crazy but if your selling embryos for $$$ then it makes sense.
That didn't sound like Mrs. Marple.
Someone has used her name on tmz also. I say keep the moderation. Art Harris does and he lets people on his site tell others to leave.
His article that he put up about the inquest is disrespectful to Daniel.
James
I cannot tell you how much I truly appreciate you and your dignity as an author. I am so grateful that the truth finally has an opportunity to be revealed!
I have been appalled at the lies and spinning that has been happening at TMZ. The thing that disturbs me the most is when good people that were merely seeking the truth were viciously attacked over and over again. To make matters worse Virgie Arthur, a grieving mother and grandmother was constantly belittled and besmirched by worthless paid bloggers. There is no doubt in my mind that these bloggers were paid "hit men." Finally, to top it off TMZ banned all of the folks that were being honest and looking for answers.
I have not left TMZ because I refuse to let these school yard bullies win! I will blog here and at the TMZ site. When justice has been realized I will be out of TMZ's site and I will never "step foot" on TMZ territory again.
I am shocked that any one journalist would sell his journalistic soul and not be dedicated to reporting the truth at any cost. Journalism is a very dignified and worthy endeavor. If I was a journalist I would be outraged by any ragtime man that sold his integrity for any reason and demeaned the news reporting profession!
So, again, thank you so much for your valiant efforts on the behalf of truth and justice.
Dang Blasted! I just saw where a dagblasted humper stole my name!
I hope that you know that I would only encourage you to visit the "other" site to make sure that it does not become a blood bath of the truth. I certainly would not insult our gracious host by asking everyone to go over to that site in mass! And I would not encourage anyone to linger. I would never want the "other" site to think it has our support in anyway. Not after what they did to us!
I still blog at the "other" site but I try to keep it minimal. I would not want anyone to ever think that I support the tomfoolery that is going on over there!
I refuse to let those school yard thugs bully me around.
I come to TSG often and post at different threads sometimes using my name and sometimes not (only because I am to lazy to type in Mrs. Marple LOL.) I can't begin to tell you how much I appreciate having the opportunity to have a thug-free zone! I think James is Terrific for having a site that lets bloggers express their thoughts without allowing paid pranksters the opportunity to destroy this site. James, thank you for your integrity.
What is so special about the Banned Biddies is they have been seeking the truth about the Anna Nicole saga honestly and without prejudice for a long time. They have all examined all the evidence that has been available to them. They are not a jury but are smart enough to recognize that crimes have been committed and that justice is being thwarted. It has been the Banned Biddies that have kept this story alive.
The Banned Biddies are the ones that have faced these bullies day after day without flinching. I believe that their dedication will be instrumental in getting the truth out, in finding justice and preventing malicious attempts to spin the facts out into space!
I have lingered on this subject far too long and I have a lot of thoughts and questions concerning Debra Opri's lawsuit. #1 being, is there a link to Debra Opri's filing?
I am so glad that the truth is finally coming out. I am glad that Justice will prevail! And I am glad that I have made so many new friends! Happy Blogging, Folks!
should take lessons from you!
JAMES
Good seeing you, Faye and Mrs. Marple. I need to read some of the other blogs and then I will get back over here. TTYL!
Welcome to the wonderful world of Howie and Company James!
They are a gifted bunch of coconuts aren't they
I support Virgie, Rita and James. TRUTH AND JUSTICE WILL NOT BE DENIED.
Thank you James for your site and trying to take care of us. For us, we need to take care of ourselves and each other.
Peace.
GO RITA!!!!!!
GO VIRGIE!!!!
GO JAMES!!!!!

The truth isn't in Stern or Birkhead nor their supporters.
his lawyer Browne ( thru Harris) saying Opri was directing things.
She also got the Bahamian Attorney lined up and paid money up front for him.
Why are you so concerned if that is larry's girlfriend? You've been asking all over the place.
What's up with that?
I was asking a question. So you have a problem with that?
Rita Cosby is the author of the controversial new book “Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story of Anna Nicole Smith’s Death.” The chat will take place in the News Essential and will be moderated by Gather member La Lady Lisa Westerfield. This is one chat that is sure to kick up some dirt.

I don't have a problem with the question..
Forgive me if I see your asking it as a tactic to "smoke out" those in the know.
And no, Larry does not have a girlfriend.
Strong speculation....
GO RITA!!!!!
GO VIRGIE!!!
Why is everyione making such a big deal about it. Being gay does not make onyone a bad person
It is not whether LB is gay or not, it is the fact he tries to appear he isn't when he is, understand?
I am more concerned with the lack of maturity by two men approaching their midlife 40s. I got kids in their 20s that are much more responsible, much more appropriate in actions than these two late bloomers.
LB still does not hold the baby correctly, does not act like the father (more like an immature sibling) and hasn't a clue how to mold and stimulate, how to teach, encourage, challenge a child. At a year old, the bottle needs to go by-bye. She needs to be learning to walk! She needs to be learning to talk and develop gross motor skills. It is apparent LB is not providing for the child except by nannies.
From TMZ Plastic Flowers site:
3698. I've been out of the blog loop for a while, but i do know Butterfly is a liar and a backstabber. She and Havana are alike, Havana stole information and so did Butterfly. It was information other posters from QVs site had researched and sent to the supposed "moderators" , those mods being Havana and Butterfly.

Give Larry a break. How may kids have YOU held with cameras catching your every move? That part is all for show. What goes on behind closed doors is probably the more "natural" way of holding, feeding, etc. Stop being so critical until you're behand those closed doors and REALLY knows what goews on.
7:15 PM
Really , youwan tto give Larry a break well maybe you shouold watch this
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rK1ra64lFbc it is a heart breaking video of the grandmother of Dannilynn who wants to be in the baby';s life while Larry has a party and invites the man that kidnapped her, while her grandmother has to buy magazines like Larry use to. Larry knows what that feels like. So Shame on him!
Sorry this is easier, My heart breaks for her!
Hopefully our competent FBI agents are still on the job and have accumulated damning evidence that can be presented in the Inquest regarding Daniel's death in the Bahamas. Perhaps that compiled information will assist John O'Quinn in winning his case in the frivolous lawsuit Stern filed against John O'Quinn, who is a highly respected Texas attorney, a good man, and who is renowned for his generosity and charitable work.
It is time for Opri to state the facts now, and to stop the Birkhead facade and to expose the truth. Had it not been for Opri Larry would have never, ever gotten the DNA processed.
Here's to victory and success for Opri and for Rita Cosby. Here's to justice for Anna and for Daniel in the Bahamian Inquest.
Thank you Rita Cosby for standing tall and for exposing the truth in your book. It is time to end the corrupt evil that has blocked justice. All it takes for evil to prevail is for good people to remain silent.
Did you guys see O'Quinn's list of people he is going to call in his case?
Very interesting.
I hope to heaven's the judge doesn't throw it out.
Sorry Mr. O' but I for one want to see many of those people under oath.
James,
Will there be "movies" at the party?
Not sure if this is same site; compare the address if you will.
Please take the tie to start stop, review how Dannielynn responds to sounds around her, and watch her eyes. She may have 20/20 vision without focal points at same distance; surgery to shorten eye muscles may be needed so both eyes focus at dame distance.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rK1ra64lFbc
I watched this many, many times and found some major problems. Having worked with disabled children, I am concerned with the following:
1. Dannielynn's left eye consistently turns inward; the right eye periodically turns inward;
2. The child only makes a "huffing" sound, not the normal babble of a child. She did NOT respond to Larry King, not even turned her head, when he spoke from behind her. LB, at the end, turns her toward King whereby upon seeing him, she starts to radiate and kick her legs. This behavior, only responding to that which she can see, is typical of an infant that is hearing deaf.
There are several syndromes that link hearing/seeing "diseases". I wish I could remember the names of these disabilities. It could be a matter of the 3rd vertebrae being" frozen" and not coordinating hearing and seeing.
The problem could be related to smoking or drugs or lack of oxygen at birth according to prior info I had on one of the children I worked with. A neurologist is mandantory.
The child may also have "silent" seizures, a form of the more than 2,000 types of epilepsy.
A doctor, other than ANA'S doctors, needs to intervene so the child may learn to lip read and start learning sign language. Some infants start signing as early as 2 months old...
Howard and Larry are both handsome gentlemen.
----------
Well apparently they think so (about each other)
On that site, you will see Butthead constantly directing DL. For most of her contact, she is NOT reaching out to him; she is either touching the two mics, responding to eye contact with radiation/bouncing, or watching the lips/smiles before she then smiles... she is copying and reacting to visual responses only. She does NOT respond to Larry K speaking behind her...
Does Butthead know Dannielynn has problems? You bet! That is the reason why he is constantly doing eye contact with her (smiling) or bouncing her. Yet, the child does not make ANY sound of delight while being bounced...he is creating a camera distraction...
There is a sydrome associated with the use of "benzo" during pregnancy
"Floppy Baby sydrome"
To correctly diagnose this the child must have MRI and CAT
scan.
It is associated with developmental delays and poor muscle strenght and coordination.
It's worrisome

Wow, I was just talking to Carolyn about that last night. I noticed the eyes. I hope and pray it is just a lazy eye. My daughter had a lazy eye also and it corrected itself. We will not know if she has reached her milestones until about 18 months of age. I hope that she is well from all the drugs that were in Anna's system.
you are right a neurologist should take a look, but I do not think it is necessary until around 18 months of age.

___________________________________
Sometimes the good eye needs to be patched to strengthen the weak eye. She also might require glasses. But to assume this is due to the drug abuse now is a bit of a stretch. I agree with Kerry that they won't know that at this time. It is much too early to diagnose.
Same thing goes for walking...some babies walk early and some can start walking as late as 15 months.

Andrew Dice Clay aka "The Diceman"
already has that covered.
I have been reading your concerns about DL's developement and your visual findings. Unfortunately I'm not able to access her as all of you.
I am concerned!
I do research for a large national foundation on Autism. What caught my interest from some statements is no eye contact with persons within her visual range.
I would like to have more feed back.
I hope and pray that child is okay.
Has anyone seen her stand with help? Has anyone seen her crawl or sit up?
Pease, input will be appreciated?
This is what got this idea going. The sie is up there some place.

1. Why did Howie call the school after she died?
ANYWAYS...I SEE simalarities...They are easily dismissed as mine were for 13 years...It wasn't until learning disabilities, Scoliosis from WEAK back Muscles (unable to support the spine), fallen arches, (weak foot and leg muscles) Slightly slurred speech (tongue) swallowing difficulties...inability to contol Body tempeture, balance problems, slow to motor, tend to tip-toe,drool, It goes on and on..Symptoms are varied from Child to Child dependant on Damage, can be caused ALSO by DRUG USE in Pregnancy. Drs. make excuses for those who are not WILDLY disabled...don't want to rock the boat on their Peers.One Dr. even WITHHELD MRI Results SHOWING BRAIN ATROPHY!!! THIS is Cerebral Palsy. Drs. DON'T want to call it that.they like to call it a "movement disorder"...My Daughters eyes weaken as they tire...she can't focus and see after that...NEED lots of REST.I see similarities with D.L....
How limited is your dau today? On in 10 children are born with disabilities in the us today according to March of Dimes. My son was oxygen starved at birth and had problems; I worked very hard with him and he us an intelligent and creative person. I used holistic massages on his spine with olive or peanut oil each night to "feed/lubricate" the nerve endings.
Only this week I saw a video on the internet (The Insider?) where DL was crawling and it seems there has been recent footage of her standing with assistance.
My son didn't walk until age 17 months (wide shoulders and a large head) but could walk nearly two-thirds around the block once he got up and was a multi-athlete throughout the years. Also, he is borderline genius and, of course, excelled in school though not a nerd :-)!!!
I feel in the case of DL the longer she crawls the better for her motor skills and future academic experience providing, of course, there wasn't measurable damage from the ingestion of drugs during her mother's pregnancy. If I were her father, I would have her on the purest diet possible right now and as long as possible. Also, she would be under the care of the best pediatrician available in Los Angeles County for close observation.
My criticism thus far is they appear to overstimulate her central nervous system and may not keep her on a consistent day-to-day schedule.
Astrologically, she has Moon in Pisces which can be interpreted a number of different ways but for purpose of this discussion she is very "sensitive" to people and her immediate environment. Unless he rapidly becomes an astute parent, LB is missing a lot of messages which are masked behind her smiling face! On behalf of survival, the human (baby) learns to manipulate their environment very early! Despite the fact she had a nanny, I cannot imagine what life was like for her those first five months of her life?!
Instead of all the lawsuits, LB might better use his free time in taking child development classes to feel more competent in raising his child so not to heavily rely on others.
Solid "parenting" is a very serious matter and the parent should come out the other end having learned many phenomenal lessons about life and about true love! Parenting is not for the feign of heart nor those who want to place that responsibility on the shoulders of others....the years pass far too quickly!
Larry holds her up to stand, but her feet go up and down and on tip toe. Kind of like a month old baby would do if you held them up in the same way under their arms on your lap.

4:47 PM
We are doing many things...SLOWNESS in all areas seems prevalant...We have Chiropractic, Dietian, Remedial Tutor at home, Vitamins, Melatonin for sleep,swimming for muscles...WORSE thing is nobody told us ANYTHING. So she received NO TREATMENT for 12 years. I kept bringing her to doctors, she fell down all the time, tired easily, nystagmus of the eyes, losing vision at night, slurred speech, slow learning, hearing problems...scariest...unable to control body temperture...EASILY overheats...she has had heat stroke many times...always tired...thats the hardest to watch...we conserve energy as much as possible. BUT it wasn't overly obvious till later in the day...when she'd tire, she couldn't function. The kids would call her "STUMBLEINA"...I worry about Dannielynn...I see similarities...I HOPE I am wrong...BUT to treat a problem one must acknowledge it...
Don't you guys thing that that was Moe or Taz calling to arrange for their children's after school care?

Sinister,
I told Carolyn about the eye last night in the Hawii picture. I do not think they can say autism until she reaches her milestones, which would be about 18 months. I did notice that she has no direct eye contact and thought and hoped it is a lazy eye. I really hope that the baby is fine and healthy . She is an innocent child that does not need to be talked about!
I have to believe the FBI and the DEA are moving forward on this, or I would have no faith in law enforcement, having already lost faith in the Judicial system from the travesty in Seidlin's court.
And Daniel's death, how tragic and heinous is that, an honor student, his worst fears realized, now dead, and no investigation nor Inquest for a year. Please help me understand all this. It is all an abomination in my view, demoralizing, and a blight on our Justice system and our country.
kerry-The baby does not surprise me based on amount of drugs in Anna's system and the type-I really think that was the reason DR.E was around for 5 months!
I wasn't thinking DL as Autistic. I am reading others thoughts. The indeference about eye contact can be a lot of things or nothing at all. I like you feel she is an innocent child.
If her air-head father continues to promote her at every chance for money then there is a real problem.
Greed is a terrible thing!
I feel DL is the new Anna with the same slime in that child's life as was in Anna's.
I pray for a healthy DL.

Sinister, I agree if Larry wants to be in the spotlight , then good for him but like you said , that air-head should leave the baby out of it. I think you are right when you say greed is a terrible thing, we all rooted for Larry to get the baby and now he is making an @$$ out of himself by living off that innocent baby. The poor little thing. Maybe her eyes and the direct contact could be from the falshes and lights from ET? I pray like you that she is a healthy, beautiful little girl who is not too messed up from everything he is putting her through.
are begging to return to sleep. Nice, cool morning. Warm cup of coffee to kick start this engine!lol
Rita's book answers so many questions. If you have not purchased this it is well worth the money. I have highlighted and scribbled so much in the book,Rita should send me a new one! lol Was going to loan it out but decided not to; people need to buy their own. It is a classic and will assist you as the various law suits start up...
929/07
This jumped out at me last night:
Duffle bag was at hotel: p. 230
"Detectives found eleven prescriptions medications in various places in the suites, including the nightstand, the dresser drawer, and especially Howard's now infamous duffel bag. The bag was found on the floor and was full of prescription medicine mostly written to Howard. Among the medications found in Howard's duffel bag was chloral hydrate, considered by Dr. Perper to be "the most significant drug implicated in this fatality.
Moe told private investigators he felt guilty, wondering if what was inside the packages of prescriptions he received at his house and delivered to Howard on that Monday night before her death, was what killed Anna. Moe also told numerous people he was put under intense pressure "not to talk" and to "shut his wife up." Howard and his attorneys were calling Moe, telling him to "stay in our camp." Moe felt so much stress that he was hospitalized at least twice. "
p.230
"Howard, Ron Rale, and Larry Birkhead called Moe relentlessly after his book deal was announced. Larry ws concerned about what Moe was going to write about him in the book, and Ron Rale and Howard kept telling Moe "to keep Tas quiet." Moe believes Howard's team "played a role in killing his book deal."
1. p. 230: Duffel bag, drugs, Dr. Perper, "the package," threats, Moe's book.
"After Anna's death, Moe presented his story on Fox News, and said he had been gone "like fifteen minutes" from the hotel room when he called to check on how Anna was doing. He did call his wife at 12:27 pm, approximately fifteen minutes after he left the room. But what happened before hotel surveillance cameras have him arriving back at 1:40 pm, is a bit strange and still is confusing."
(Note: I have Moe leaving at 12:13 pm or there about, and returning to hotel- - not room yet-- at 1:40pm. That is 1 hour and 28 minutes he was gone ... pt.)
2. p. 231: Moe's time line
"In addition, Dr. Khris Eroshevich has cause for concern, which may be why she refused to talk to Seminole Police. To have someone under your medical supervision with a raging 105 degree temperature and not take her to the hospital is deadly dangerous. 'The only adults I have seen with a fever of 105 degrees are suffering from heat exhaustion/heat stroke, are extraordinarily ill, or near death,' Dr. Keith Eddleman told me. His practice at Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York City sees more than 17,000 patient a year. 'That is an astronomically high fever, seizure range. If someone arrives at the hospital with that high of a temperature, it's a medical emergency. You summon everybody to get that body temperature down. As a doctor, to not seek emergency care for one of your patients with a 105-degree temperature, you are asking for medical malpractice problems.' "
p. 235
" Add this to the laundry list of prescription drugs D. Khris provided for Anna under various names, and one can see why the California Medical Board and the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration opened an investigation in to Dr. Khris."
...
p235
" Though Dr. Khris refused to talk with Seminole Police, she was willing to talk with Entertainment Tonight. In fact, as the Entertainment Tonight crew, including Mark Steines, boarded a plane to fly to Florida the night of Anna's death, Dr. Khris joined them. ... 'She told me who was there, what Howard was going through, and why the paternity battle Anna had been suffering through was literally too much for her to bear." (pt notes: Mark Steines' Internet blog)
3. p 234-235: Dr. E, Mark Steines, Fever, Dr. Eddleman, DEA & CMB investigations, Seminole Police, Entertainment Tonight
"Perhaps most disconcerting was that there was a baby bottle positioned on top of Anna with the same orange-brown residue in it as the jug on the nightstand. The contents of both the baby bottle and th jug were tested and it turned out to be Pedialyte, an oral electrolyte maintenance solution, specially formulated for children with diarrhea and vomiting. Tas said the baby bottle bothered her very much. It wasn't the contents that troubled her. She believes 'the baby bottle was planted... if Anna was truly sleeping, it would've fallen off the minute she moved because of the strange position it was in.' The baby bottle was lying slanted on Anna's should and neck on top of the covers. 'There's no way she put it there herself.' "
4.p 234 Baby bottle (position and contents), Tas
Eroshevich stated that Anna begged her not to leave her, and said she was afraid. At that point Anna had no friends, and wrongly trusted Eroshevich, who left her there to die. Anna had reason to be afraid, and she knew it. How lonely and agonizing her suffering must have been in those hours before what happened to her. And even then 911 was not called for almost an hour. Just to be sure?
Trimspa(Goen):
"A month before this drug related testimony, unbeknownst to Howard K. Stern and Ales Goen, CEO of Trimspa, one day in late January, Larry Birkhead met for several hours with seven Bahamian police detectives. Larry made some shocking allegations. The meeting was also attended and witnessed by Mark Speer, a retired Los Angeles County sheriff's deputy, who was doing security for Larry Birkhead between October and March. He traveled with him everywhere including Florida, Los Angeles, and the Bahamas,and saw first-hand some
dramatic and very telling revelations.
During the meeting, Larry provided verbal and written statements with explosive details of money funneling, drug abuse and worse. Going on record, Larry Birkhead told police that Howard was funneling approximately $15,000 at least every other week, wiring it to his parents in offshore accounts. According to Larry, several million dollars had been wired. He said that Bahamian police should check Howard's bank accounts and Anna's checkbook.
But he also told police officers that 'TrimSpa was a joke' and that 'the owner, Alex Goen, knew Anna wouldn't and couldn't lose weight that way.' So, he said, Goen supplied human growth, a body fat reducer, and methamphetamines, an appetite suppressing, heart racing stimulant often called 'speed.'
According to Mark Speer, Larry and he was 'there when Alex Goen brought the stuff to Anna, and Anna also told Larry that this was going on.' She said she had been using it for at least a year. Larry gave his attorney Debra Opri a two-to-three-long needle and a vial with a small amount of the liqud left in it. Debra Opri gave the items to Speer, who placed them in a sealed envelope in his refrigerator anticipating that they would be tested someday. Larry Birkhead said the needle came from Alex Goen and that 'The nedle and the vial would have Anna's DNA and maybe Alex Goen's fingerprints.' A few weks later, after Larry had met privately with Howard, Larry asked Mark Speer for the envelope back. "This needle and this vial are going to take TrimSpa and Alex Goen down,' Larry told Speer, adding that he wanted 'Alex Goen to go to prison and his company out of business.'
I asked Mark Speer why he thought Larry never did anything with this evidence. Very frankly he said, 'I believe Larry Birkhead was bought off.' "
5. Larry Birkhead, Mark Speer, Debri Opri, Bahamian police, Trimspa-Alex Goen; assorted script drugs, needle and vial, money funneling
We had so many questions and a few missed conclusions that I thought I might be able to address these on this board. That is why I am numbering my comments at the bottom and listing key words with them I knew Goen was involved; his reactions were totally incorrect when a person "so dear" to him died. Everyone started screaming "Anna died of a broken heart." I said, No; she may have died WITH a broken heart AND a heart attack, drug overdose, bullet to the head, stroke, car accident, etc., but died OF a broken heart doesn't fly. Dr. Khris also had the wrong reactions... Further, I did not trust any of the cast of characters who uttered, "It was what Anna wanted," when Anna is not here to confirm those statements, and when it was detrimental to Anna or Daniel's well being.
Ye, LB becomes a switch hitter. Yes, DL will fade out of the light when saturation market moves to something else; yes, DL has medical needs LB and others are hiding; Yes, Dr. Khris went to B's to pow-wow with HKS prior to court actions; yes, thanks to many on Judge site, I DO think HKS and BS are directly related to Dr. Khris.
Will look forward to good news regarding Rita Cosby's party next week!
Your photography is wonderful....
My supposition is that Howard and Eroshevich conspired to eliminate Daniel and Anna. Howard had absolute control over Anna, Daniel was in his way, and Howard had absolute power over all Anna's money and Anna's properties and possessions. If what you said is true about Larry's testimony that Howard was funneling money that belonged to Anna, which I have heard before and which I believe, it is likely that the more of Anna's money and holdings that were confiscated the deeper the conspiracy became. Daniel talked to a PI and had blown the whistle, Howard knew it according to reports, Daniel was coming into his inheritance on his next birthday. After Daniel's death Anna wouldn't stop accusing Howard.
They couldn't keep her drugged forever, and when she started becoming lucid she still accused Howard, and asked him to leave. Naturally he refused to leave, and even after she was dead he refused to leave Horizons and set forth to get it for himself (saying it was a gift and was part of Anna's estate), even put in the will that the baby's estate would pay the expenses at Horizons, even the upkeep of the pool. Howard never paid a penny for Horizons, Ben paid all the expenses there, so if Howard got Horizons from Ben he would get it for nothing, and then the baby would pay the expenses instead of Ben. Anna supported Howard for years, and now he sues people who tell the truth, using her money. He stopped the Inquest into Anna's son's death.
I guess one of the most disgusting people in this travesty, next to Howard of course, would be Larry Birkhead. I can't even bear to look at either one of them.
INQUEST INQUEST INQUEST! FBI FBI FBI! JUSTICE JUSTICE JUSTICE!
Does anyone remember the name of the artist, gallery owner, art teacher in the Studio City area who may have "appeared" once on the Anna Nicole Show but where (I believe) Anna's elementary artwork was originally shown?
She surfaced just once after Anna's death and I think the interview was by Access Hollywood? She said it was her hope that LB was the father and not HKS. She would have a fair amount of information regarding the relationship between Anna Nicole and her personal lawyer.
She appeared to consider herself a friend of Anna Nicole but not of HKS.
Sorry, computer rules and said I need to do some security scans.
We had debated the unusualness of this "case":
1. Sexuality:number of the gays, the bis-
2. Heritage: many Russian, Polish, Rumanian
3. Religion: many/most are Jewish
Then research was presented by on of the bloggers regarding HKS's parents and their ages. Research was also done on Dr. Evil and her age; when HKS was born, she was in college. Speculation then began whether the older Sterns might have adopted HKS and BS; they would have been a hindrance for a college student and MS. Stern was in her 40's when HKS was born based on various birth certificates and birth dates.
The relationship between HKS and Dr. Evil is rather unique, isn't it? The housing is side by side. Of course, when he hollars, she comes running. Now, she is being investigated. Wonder who she will be using as an atty.?
Think they look alike? lol
23826. Some time stuff:
Day of death
12:14 HKS moe King Eric and the first make exit room 609
12:17
HKS made a call to Mark Dekema. Per Mark Dekema HKS called incessently
before the appointment - needing directions and asking questions about
work on boat - called him 5 times between noon and 1
12:27 Moe calls Taz
12:44 Taz calls Moe - call lasts 1 min
12:45 Taz calls Moe again 4 min call
1:17 Taz calls Moe 1 min at most
1:19 Taz calls Moe again 1 min
1:22 Moe called Taz oen minute
1:23 HKS calls Voice Mail
1:24 Moe calls HKS
1:15-1:22 HKS calls Mark DeKema boat dealer
Dekema says HKS ended call abruptly saying he had to take another call BUT
1:23 HKS checks voice mail
1:24 Moe calls HKS
1:28 Moe calls his wife again (he had just gotten off from Howard - a min or two before) 4 min call
1:31
Moe calls hotel liaison on "her cell"???Almost simultaneously she was
also calling him" - phone tag over and over phone call attempts between
these two
1:33-1:36 HKS calls MOe over and over
1:36 Moe calls wife
1:36 hotel liaison calls her boss, the Director of Operations
1:37 HKS calls hotel liaison twice
1:38 finally Taz calls hotel operator to call 911.
1:54 HKS called KE
1:59 Seminole Police Arrive at scene
2:02 and 2:09 - HKS calls KE again
2:09 KE calls HRH liaison
:227 2:30 2:32 HKS repeatedly calls Moe (2:15 Guerny and Moe leave)
2:31 KE calls hote liaison
2:37
Alex Katz calls liaison. "He was the other person in the room with them
Monday night after they arrived, the night ANS had the 105."
3:12 HKS calls Goen
3:13 HKS calls hotel main no.
3:14 HKS calls Goen
3:17 Goen calls HKS
3:21 HKS calls Horizons
3:23 HKS gets call from Boesch Law Firm that handles ANS case against Marshalls
3:37 and 3:38 HKS calls Ron Rale
3:49 and 3:51 HKS calls Entertainment Tonight speaking 2 and 4 minutes respectively

4:26 Howard calls Ray Martino
4:27 Howard called hotel liaison
4:34 Howard called liaison again
4:37 hotel liaison calls HKS twice
4:49 HKS calls information
4:51 HKS calls local elementary school and then its aftercare program?????
4:55 hotel liaison calls Howard
5:38 Leon Stern, HKS father calls Howard
7:12 and 7:13 Moe calls Ron Rale
The pattern emerging is most interesting.
At 3:21 HKS called Horizons. Why? Wasn't the baby supposedly with Shane's mother away from the home? Was this to talk with FS and arrange the "break in" so the video alibi would be out in the public domain as a "look! ANS overdosed!" type of plausability.
When I am stressed, I usually call a family member... think he did too?
It is several hours later that his "dad" calls HKS. How did "Dad" find out? HKS did not call him..."mom" never called her "son"...
Does anyone have any idea of how and why DWS had bruises on both sides of his front pelvic region and under his arms according to the ME? It was further stated this bruising occurred prior to his death, pre-mortem.
Speculation or links are accepted! lol
9/29/07
Always found the bruising curious....
If Shelly was involved in a cover-up on his behalf, why would AH and the SC hate he and Ben so much?
It seems they all knew the liason's phone number, even the Katz guy. Dr. E said the liason told her it didn't look good after Howard called her. I always think he told her Anna was dead.
The bruises are appear to me, to be like Daniel was held down OR if you lie on the floor on your stomach, stretch your arm out like someone is pulling you. You would have abrasions on your pelvic/hip areas pressure points. Maybe that's how he got Daniel to the bed so it would appear to the nurse that Daniel moved himself.
The school thing: What are the ages of Tas' kids? I thought they were much older. They are hers, not Moe's.
Bruising on Daniel: Hope this is revealed soon.
Where was the ice obtained from? What food did Daniel have in his stomach at time of death? Why was Dr. Evil the first person HKS called?
Anyone stating ANS died of a BROKEN HEART or ANS wanted it this way... I totally am disgusted with!
Going to supper! BBQ by my son... yum!
Interesting that Eroshevich would call the hotel liaison right after Stern called her? If she wasn't there in an "official" professional capacity to ANS the previous four days (mysteriously leaving the day before her death after having spent MONTHS with her), why call the hotel so soon? Guess she wanted to make certain her "professional" work on ANS had worked! One would think she would be calling the hospital instead? Needless to say, there's the appearance of manipulated cover-up going on during the period before and after ANS death by most names involved with the story.
All the calls that were placed so rapidly after ANS was taken away on the gurney (without her tongue-in-cheek LOVER by her side)speaks volumns of who participated in the ritual of death that last a period of four or five days.
It was my hope that Larry would hire a "neutral" attorney to handle the affairs of himself and his daughter (keeping her away from her mother's former inner circle) though that was proven to be only a fantasy for the public.
Also, I thought the "sperm donor" comment was the wedge that was driven between Larry and Mrs. Arthur though now I realize there was so much more involved due to the fact that he had (already) married Stern. Now we know where the two-"daddy"-baby perception was arrived at by the Stern supporters (they had inside knowledge of the relationship between Stern and Larry). They went after that tact with fervor and AH even making a big deal about Father's Day, 2007.
My guess is that Mrs. Arthur, unfortunately, won't ever experience the grace to spend time with her granddaughter due to Larry's involvement with Stern who has Larry under his control. Unless Stern makes an early transition, Larry will be eternally joined with him; hopefully, not prevailing any further with the Marshall Family Estate will be the straw that breaks the camel's back!
With the mystery surrounding the death of Daniel Wayne Smith AND Anna Nicole Smith, one would hope the entire Marshall Family and their legal support team have been placed under the protection of the FBI.
Everything I am going to say here is only my opinion.
#1. I believe Dr. Death WAS acting as a doctor in FL. to Anna, because she is the one who ordered the Tamaflu, which shows she was careing (NOT) for Anna.
#2. Please do not attack me for what I am going to say here, but I have thought about this alot, and I hope to GOD I am wrong and WAY off base here. What if hk$ raped Daniel after he picked him up at the airport that night. That would explain the pelvic bruses, and Dr. Witch ME, said there was something else in Daniel he would not release, because he didn't want to embarase the family. What could that have been? I can't see where any meds. would be embarseing to the family, BUT sperm WOULD. Has anyone else wondered any of this? By: Time WILL Tell
I hate to go to dark places in this scenario, but yep, it's posible.
Mutzie says...............I am proud of Mrs. Opri for this action she has taken. She deserves better. She took Larry out of the slime of the Parparzzi and cleaned him up to look like the All American victim only trying to love and hold his child. She fought tooth and nail to accomplish his parternty. She finished her job. and quit when she could not involve her self in what Larry was doing. She stated that her billing was the same as Ron Rales. Good Lawyers are expensive. I wish her success in this endeavor. Since their split everyone has wittnessed Larrys slander of her on TV.
8:42 PM
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Exactly!

Regarding a "finders' fee' for media spots, it is not unusual to ask 23%; the 10% was way below what could have been demanded for her services on setting up the photo shoots to sell Larry to the media.
Yep and even before the RC book....
29954. Howard was the only one who could have given them that scene. There was some confusion as to whether Daniel was in the chair or in bed with his mom which I think is highly unlikely. Neither of my sons would even consider it and especially since she just had the C-Section. What did that scene show?? The chair??
Remember, Daniel had bruises on him, too. Certain limbs are prone to BUMP bruises (legs, elbows)...but I thought these were on his back.
(NOW HEAR THIS! i WOULD AGREE!)
What has always bothered my is Howard saying that he checked his neck artery...never mentioning shaking him with a..."Hey, Danny...Danny..Come on Danny....get up."
IN other words, he did nothing to arouse him BUT INSTEAD checked to see if he was dead.

Key phrase: If she was alive... but then again, dead people don't need to have breakfast, do they? And dead people don't care what colour the home is either.
How much of this was a smoke screen to increase media/public interest so as to get a bigger buck for phot shots?
