Anna's Mom Meets with Bahamian Police

TMZ has obtained exclusive photos of Anna Nicole Smith's mother, Virgie Arthur, on her way out of a Bahamian police station just hours after she arrived in the Bahamas.
Vergie in the Bahamas
Arthur scheduled the emergency trip to the islands to "check all her options" in the custody battle over her granddaughter, Dannielynn -- this according to a close family friend who is currently on the trip.

According to our source, "Virgie is very concerned for the safety and well-being of her granddaughter. The man who has custody of Dannielynn (Howard K. Stern) was with her daughter and grandson Daniel when they died ... under mysterious circumstances. All she cares about is the welfare of the baby."

Virgie's arrival in the Bahamas was first reported by the TV show "EXTRA."

271. Sarah, Me, Caryl ......All praising each other, sharing your insight and updates regarding the news, the good job, back pats to the Mob now posting under new names, they have not been posting with their usual names since Ms Anna N Smith left this earth, why ???
Do you feel bad that you accused this dead woman of murdering her beloved son? Will you sleep at night, knowing that you helped to create a suspicious aura around her life, when clearly she loved her son, yet you pointed fingers, and accused , you were oh so proud when they announced an inquest into the death of her son, as if it was your doing??? You will reap what you sow you will never reach Nirvana,
you will suffer until the end,

272. The will be like the Warren Report on J F K ...The ANNA Commission.....unreal ..

I'm sure her final cocktail, of script dugs, cold meds, a fever, supposed alcohol, that day.....according to Hard Rock's bartender...she had a few too many shots... before she left...
Mark my words.....her heart, probably gave out...I still feel bad.....seeing the earlier videos when she was still coherent...and no so drug dependant....she was a beautiful woman...dam shame really...tragic life...the rest is just history.....

273. Anyone with a lick of sense sould be able to figure out that ANS was a tortured soul. Her entire life centered around men and the attention ie---"love" she could aquire with her body. Any drugs she took thru out her life were obviously taken to lessen the emotional pain she was in every moment. When did the pain begin?? My bet is in her childhood. Something horrendous happened to that poor girl --------------probably many times over. Now that she has gone to glory, certain loved ones from her childhood (I use the term "loved ones quite loosely" surface to proclaim their love. Whatever!!! They will proclaim any dam thing if they think they can cash in on the gravy train. Where was her doting mother when Daniel died and her grand daughter was born?? I know ANS banned her from her life, but she could have made some attempt to be there for her daughter. I have lost a child and have one that is an addict------------I could no more go on national television before they were even cold for any reason-----the pain is just too overwhelming. That witch should be executed just like Saddam for that alone, much less for how she "mothered" ANS to begin with. My prayer is that she NEVER gets her money grubbing meat hooks on that dear, sweet baby and that whoever does gain custody has the good sense to change her name and raise her in some small unassuming town where she has a chance of having a life. God bless you, sweet Dannielynn and may your Momma and brother forever rest in peace.

275. Anna Nicoles' mom should be ashamed of herself! She was on television Friday night badmouthing her now deceased daughter! She is a money grubbing, trailer-trash old bag, who only wants to know the grandchild for monetary gain! In fact, Anna's whole white trash family doesn't seem to even care that this girl is dead, and her 5 month old baby will never know her mother! I hope this trashy bunch gets NOTHING!

276. To Homegirl101:

I lost my mother (my best friend) in a sudden, horrific car accident that mangled her from head to toe. I wasn't able to cry one tear at her funeral. I don't even remember the funeral. I think I was in shock, and being drugged to the hilt by my husband and my doctor did not help.

I didn't react until a week later, when I threw the sedatives away.

I'm not defending ANS's mother, but she is a police officer, and I think probably trained not to react, and probably a harda** with the things she has seen over the years in her job.

What did offend me, was what she had to say about ANS. I thought that was horrible. I too had a "wild child", not having any clue about that behavior, I still never gave up on her. Her father and I ran her through all the programs (received an education why kids act up, even when they do not have a reason to do so) they had back then, and she still didn't respond. Yet, we never gave up on her.

Today, she has two degrees, and is a beautiful and successful young woman. So never give up on the young ones.

The only thing I know, is that what I was able to pass onto my daughter, was the "great love" my mom passed on to me.

Without that, I never would have made it.

I thought ANS was beautiful. I thought she deserved better than what she received from the world.

Now, you can eat me alive. Won't matter, none of it matters anymore...she is gone. I pray she is in peace and with Daniel.

I pray DannieLynn finds a "great" place to grow up in, with lots of love.

277. I don't understand why ANYBODY is listening to a damn thing her 'mother' says. Anna hated her mother, and with good reason!!! She was always talking shit about Anna (jealousy, perhaps?!), and in general was a horrible mother to her. She shouldn't be getting interviewed about Anna at all, nor should she be getting PAID for these interviews!!! (now that Anna's no longer here, her mom is taking advantage of being a trash-talking 'know it all'). It makes me ill!!!! The woman is an idiot, just because she is biologically her mother doesn't mean she knows a damn thing about who her daughter was!!!! Poor Anna, even in death people can't just leave the girl the f*ck alone!!!!!!!

******
We are who we are..regarding the handling of death.... These opinions are not about us really....and we are all so different...I was commenting to another poster... that said we were all idiots!!! In fact my post was a very generic comment stating that just because Anna's mother is an officer doesn't necessarily mean she's a good mother..I said she seems cold! Not really questionable reading the comments..others feel it too...?? .I lost 2 brothers..very young and a mom at 62..I cried, plenty..still choke up about them ....I wonder how that happens..is all..Her total lack of compassion...and I would never bad mouth my child on TV because isn't that.... just a reflection of us anyway....as parents??
It's a sad and tragic loss... for the baby....her mom seems cold to me..not very emotional...just my opinion...about her..actions...I don't need to know her...
I am sure you were in major shock.... your body has a protective way of keeping you sane
at a time like that...blessings to you and your daughter..you did
just fine...Peace

279. I have watched and watched everything I could possibly put my eyes on this weekend having to do with Anna, several things have really stood out to me. Anyone woh thinks Howard ran her life is wrong, she was in control and got whatever she wanted. Also I watched Birkhead stand in the sidelines watching her at both a photo shoot and at the Gay Pride Parade glaring at her like he hated her, not throwing off on the man but I know pissy when I see it. What does anyone know about this man?

280. And, I pray that noone will buy Donna Hogans book, its disgusting. Im not about boycotting anyone or anything but I hope not one copy sells.

281. I hope Howard is wearing his Sure, so we do not see him sweat!
I bet the next person that is going to end up dead, will be Howard K. Stern himself!
I think he will do himself in!

283. I do not think that ANS was self-medicating herself. I think it was Florence Howard Nightingale Stern making sure that her pills were right on schedule!
Anna did not even know what was going on with him! She trusted him too much, and he was deciding which air she could breathe!

284. Her mother is a fat pig. The whole family (remember the no-tooth cousin?) is just after $$$. I wouldn't read her sister's book if they were giving it away for free. They're all just trash.

285. I have lost a sister and a niece. My niece was murdered, drug related. When my sister died, my mother did not try to take her two young boys. One was 2 and the other 4. They remained with their father. He didn't remarry for 7 years.
I have two daughters, they have 3 children each. If ANY of them were as ill as Anna Nicole was, The president him self couldn't have kept me from them. If to day heaven forbid a grandchild were to die, I would be one of the first at my daughter's side. Normally, yes a grandparent would be a likely person in my opinion to get Daniellynn. But like the other two that have commented about Texas. I live 30 miles from Mexia, and I did have a nephew that was a Texas cop till he got arrested for burglary, just because you are a cop don't mean you aare perfect. I would hate to be Howard K Stern right now. And my heart goes out to him if he doesn't get that little baby. I am sure he loved Anna Nicole and loves that baby. That will be like ripping his heart out, to have a child taken away. I wouldn't dream of trying to take any of my grandchildren away from their parent. I do agree that ALL persons that could be her father (including Mr. Marshall even in death). With her money, she could very well have had that done to have a child. Who knows HKS may not could have fathered children, and this was their plan. That is why she named him the father. It would seal her getting Marshalls billions. Apparently, Anna Nicole didn't want to have anything to do with Larry B or her family. She was a grown woman of 39 and making her own money. I always say, what will be will be. HKS is an attorney, he will go by the law, no matter what it is. If he has to do the DNA, I am sure he will. Apparently he knows a few more things that others don't. I ultamately hope things stay like they are. Sorry grandma.
