Celebrity Justice
Cops Have More Questions for Howard K. Stern

Howard K SternContrary to published reports, the investigation into the death of Anna Nicole's son is far from over.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ that the Attorney General of the Bahamas ordered police to re-interview Howard K. Stern regarding the painkiller methadone, and how it ended up in the late Daniel Wayne Smith's system.

Daniel died September 10 in his mother's hospital room, just days after she gave birth to a baby girl. An autopsy revealed that Daniel had a lethal combination of drugs in his system, including methadone and several antidepressants.

Sources in the Bahamas tell TMZ that Royal Bahamas Police interviewed Stern two weeks ago. It's not the first time Stern has been interviewed. Law enforcement sources say Stern and Anna Nicole were both interviewed several times after Daniel's death.

We're told that law enforcement officials will make a major announcement about the investigation by December 15.

77. Greetings, to all our fellow Bahamians. I hold a lot of love and sympathy for you for the way you treated my husband and I in our honeymoon, and last year when we docked there. Then I met here a Bahamian lady, very nice while I was hospitalized. I picked up her accent right away and we chatted for a little bit. So nice, so open, so friendly people. May God bless you and keep you safe.

Yes it is appalling what is happening there, I so not wish that this comes down on you like another Aruba-trust me I follow Natalee Holloway's case very closely. I wonder if the FBI is involved at this point b/c of the drug factor if not they will be very soon.

Just keep being yourselves, Bahamians are very dedicated people very hardworking and I trust that they will do a good job because they know what's at stake. With regards to the media I say just be patient, if your government is not efficient raise your voices. The quicker this matter is solved the better.

And I agree with several bloggers here that the date is bogey. They are trying to pull a Cruise and give a fake date.

78. She took drugs while she was pregnant and they can prove with the hair samples they took. Daniels hair was clean till he saw her. If Anna would take drugs when you are pregnant with one baby it is the same as her giving them to Daniel. They should of been honest and not ran off AND Howard lied and lied and stole and stole. She could not burry him for guilt!

3 PEOPLE have methadone in there system BaBY Danielynn, Daniel and Anna Nicole IT CAME FROM HER

88. After reading ALL the blogs, I must commend Diego Chick. It looks like you have done your research. And, I would agree with you on HKS being a COMPLETE narcissist. I have met a few attorneys; I have to say, most believe that they are ABOVE the law. Imagine that! Howard K. Stern is a complete scumbag.

89. I never a thought in a zillion years that Daniel was murdered in Sept. After all the freak show stuff , the publicity (and money), lack of mourning and for the simple fact that ANS decided to get "married" instead of having a proper burial for her son, makes this smell like high heaven (and all the facts that has come out - many drugs in her son's system). There are so many things wrong that I do think they have something to do with his death - very sick and possibly true.

90. Post # 84. The nanny - Vickie Lynn Hogan is NO ONES friend, look at what she's done to Ben Thompson. You don't STEAL from friends.......welll a decent person doesn't. so there you go.

Vickie Lynn Hogan is her own worst enemy, her behavior is demonic. She is evil and vile, her motives are strictly selfish. She destroys everyone that she's near and then tries to PROFIT from them.. Daniel is dead because of drugs, more than likely HERS and she GRIEVED ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.
Howard Marshall is dead, he died alone after a 14 month marriage, she went thru 6 million dollars and 2 years after his death she was flat broke and filing Chapter 11.
Larry Birkhead is fortunately still alive but she's taken a child that is more than likely his, SOLD PHOTO'S of Danielynne. If the child is his he should be entitled to a portion of the proceeds.

Vickie Lynn Hogan is in a house that she hasn't paid one dime for. The FREELOADER is now claiming the house was a gift. A man who was most kind to her and she tried to pin a child on him that she knows does belong to him and then she has the audacity to POACH!!!

Vickie Lynn Hogan has no relationship with her own mother. If her mother was a millionaire she'd have WEASELED money out of her too.


Howie is Vickie Lynn Hogan's ONLY friend, what does that tell you?
