Anna Nicole's Son's Death Called "Suspicious"

Anna Nicole's son's death called suspiciousNASSAU, Bahamas (AP) -- The chief inspector of the Bahamas coroner's office on Wednesday called the death of Anna Nicole Smith's 20-year-old son, Daniel, "suspicious," and scheduled a formal inquiry that could lead to criminal charges.

"Whenever there is a suspicious death we would have an inquest to determine how the person died," Bradley Neely, chief inspector
of the coroner's office, told AP Television News.

Her Majesty's Coroner Linda P. Virgill scheduled the inquest for the week of Oct. 23, saying it "is the right course of action." If jurors at the inquest decide a crime took place, the case would be sent to the attorney general's office, authorities said.

47. My gut feeling is that Anna may have let him have some drugs she needed during her birth that counter acted with something he may already have been taking, so he could get some rest. She is not aware of what drugs can actually do tto a person.

48. Someone posted "I'm sure she is totally devastated". I believe Susan Smith seemed totally devasted when her 2 kids were pulled out of that pond/lake. Remember, the one where she left them in the car and intentionally drowned her kids. Unfortunately nowadays, I don't take anything for granted, even the love from a mother to her child/children.

49. idk i think its being a little overexaggerated because she's famous and people are assuming that she had something to do with it just because its 'suspicious'

50. Drugs legal and illegal are numerous in any of the islands. Many of the cruise ship passengers can attest to that drugs are flowing freely in the island stops. I believe he overdosed on cocaine.

51. My heart breaks for Anna Nicole with the loss of her baby boy. We all saw how much she adored him. He is all that she had and all that mattered. Anna will be strong as he would want her to be. I know what she feels like to have your children be your strrength. When your poor that is what happens, your childen are your support system. Anna now has that beautiful baby girl to concentrate on. May her beautiful boy be soaring with the angels. They will all meet again someday. For now he is a special angel watching over his baby sister and momma!!!!

55. I am just so very sorry for this young man's death ~ however if occurred. I can only imagine what it would be like to lose a child ... I have two grown daughters and two grand children. I'd never be the same if anything happened to any of them. My heart goes out to Anna and her family.

56. Anna nichole is quite annoying, but, she would never hurt her son. And I feel very sorry for her, maybe her son felt jealous over the birth of her daughter and killed himself, he was her only child for 20 yrs.

57. He probably died from humiliation....

58. This could have happened to anybody. But since it happened to a celebrity, all of a sudden there is suspicion behind it. Give these poor people peace, they have just suffered a great loss.

59. He more then likely died from a drug overdose or from problems from drug usage like heart problems ect. It probably is so suspicious seeming because the lawyer and others were trying to cover up how it happened from the general public.
