Anna to Be Released Soon, Who Gets the Body?

Anna Nicole Smith[3:07] UPDATE: A Florida judge has ruled that he will not release the body of Anna Nicole Smith until he can determine the next of kin.

[2:00]
TMZ has learned that a Florida hearing is underway to determine details for the release of Anna Nicole Smith's body.

A California judge is clearing the way for Anna Nicole Smith's body to be buried, but the question remains -- to whom will the body be released?

Moments ago, a California judge withdrew his request to put a 10-day hold on Smith's remains, meaning her body may be released and buried, pending a corresponding ruling from a Florida court. A decision is expected in the next few days.

391. Howard's the one you should blame, he's the one that's keeping it going.

392. FROM THE BEGINNING, Howard could have taken the baby to any hospital of his choosing and had a DNA test done. And, is there really any doubt that he definitely would already have done so unless he KNEW that he wasn't the father? He is a malicious snake who's (at the very least) guilty of kidnapping a child (the is mother's dead) and multiple false statements. Wanna bet he purjers himself abundantly at future criminal proceedings that he'll find himself attending?

393. Howard K Stern was nothing more than a PIMP with a Law Degree. When Anna was all drugged up. and the side effects of all the drugs and booze kicked in. Well her neurotransmitters were also scrambled.
Howard was right there with the video camera filming her depresses mood. Go try to talk to a drug and alcohol addict. None of them make any sense.
Stern was there to sell her to the highest bidder. Mostly for sexual trade. A porno flick or two. Then to starve her with the Trimspa Diet. Anyone would be depressed, moody, slurring, and out of control. Every time who was there, Howard K Stern.
A typical PIMP!!!!!!
Keep her away from anyone who got too close, especially her mother. If Anna's mother was so bad, why would Anna always call her in the middle of the night crying or complaining about something. Can you imagine the hell the poor mother went through?
Only then to turn around and talk about how much she hated her mother, most likely because her mother would know Anna was bombed out of her mind, and say so. Just go ask Anna's true friends who tried to get her off of drugs and alcohol! She did the same to them.
Anna's mother should get Anna's body, then bury her in a family plot. Then go have Daniel dug up and have him brought back to the family plot. Then Vergie should get Anna's daughter if she can handle a drug and alcohol addicted baby. They pretty much act like a crack baby. It is not an easy job!!!!
Then Howard K Stern should be brought up on charges of assisted suicide, then treated worse than Doctor Kavorkian. Behind bars!!!!
I bet the guys in what prison Stern goes to would gladly show him the right way to put lipstick on. If you know what i mean!!

394. What mother would want to see her daughter on national television, porn magazines, porn movies. All drugged up?
Any one who thinks it is a cake walk is stupid or on drugs and alcohol themselves.
Howard K Stern was sure to get the depressed, suicidal Anna on video. Only to sell it to the tabloids, or ET.
He belongs in jail. As an Attorney, he swore to up hold the law. He should have turned in the people who were supplying Anna with methadone. Once methadone gets into your bones. You are hooked for life. Just like heroin!
So what did Howard K Stern do. He would deliver the drugs to her? Isn't that illegal? I seem to remember something about that in Law classes.
The Judge in Florida should fight for extradition of Howard K Stern.
Why do you think Howard took Anna to the Bahamas? No extradition laws!
Like I said in an earlier post. Howard K Stern was a PIMP in every sense.
All you people who keep saying how Anna hated her mother, are just plain nuts. If you watch the video she was bombed out of her mind. Go check out the side effects of all those drugs Anna was on, now add the the booze. She was out of her mind in those videos!
"LIKE MY BODY, TRIMSPA BABY"
No food, Slimfast, Trimspa, methadone, vicodin, and god knows what else. What a pitiful, pitiful way to live.
Anyone who has an addict in their family has seen all this kind of behavior before. Most want nothing to do with the addict after a while. Because it made them sick to watch their loved one keep hurting themselves over and over again.
Anna was on drugs and alcohol most of her life. But, Anna's mother did not enable her daughter. Go to a good naranon meeting and hear the horror stories.
Most of the women who work in those strip clubs are all on drugs or booze. That is the only way to live with them selves. Only to be pitifully hooked for life.
Most don't live as long as Anna did.
Go to any rehab center. 80% are men, cause the women usually die young. Just like booze, women can't handle it as well as a man.
Most drug addicts parents die young from all the stress, watching their daughters or sons killing themselves. And because there children are over 18, all they can really do is keep trying to get them help, most refuse.
Then the parents end up burying their children. All the stress and pain make them sick.
Go to any local Naranon, or alanon meeting. It is full of broken families. They are all sick and crying trying to cope.
Vergie if you read this. Hang in there. My cousin died of an over dose after 30 years of heroin and methadone. His mother was on her 5th heart attack by that time. All her sisters got sick watching and worrying over their sister, they also ended up with numerous heart problems. My Aunt cries every day, over her dead son. So handsome and talented. No one could figure out how he ever ended up on drugs. He came from a very good home. Loving, caring parents. His brother is a millionaire, and he could have been one too! His own brother tried to get him help. He refused. We all tried.
Hand in there Vergie!!!!!!!

395. Anna's body should be next to her son's, where she would want to be! Her mother ABUSED HER! She HATED her mother- Howard has been with Anna through her darkest days- give her some peace and put the body next to her son in the Bahamas!

396. 399 - You're as delusional as Anna was.

397. i think that everyone needs to leave howard k stern alone, he is the only father that baby knows! anna was very happy with him and it would be what she wanted, everyone knows anna didnt get along with her mother why she would even try to get her baby is really interresting. and now theres all these guys stepping in saying oh im the father im the father. i think everyone just wants the baby because she is anna nicoles! howard has done nothing but good for her and he will do a great job raising that baby shes all he has now. and for the person who broke into their home and stole all the pictures that anna made and legal documents videos and home pictures how dare you, i hope they catch whoever did it! anna's body should be burried next to her sons as howard already stated she had bought a spot next to her son when he was burried.

398. Fueled by looted goods from the Bahamas House " obtained" by TMZ and the Saint-like " non-payed" ( HA-HA) interviews by ET , Howard is going the way of OJ . Howard is much smarter than TMZ and is using them . I don't think TMZ cares as long as they get the scoop . ET is even more phoney and less inclined to dig for the real story . It is sad but I think Howard has figured this out much more than any of you !

399. Since when did Daniel want to be buried in the Bahamas??? Duckfarts . If her Mom gets the body she should dig Daniel up for the third time and bury him and anna together in Texas . Duckfarts .

400. howardkstern next source of lavish/lazy/easy source of income will be Danylynn this guy is the largest universal case of parasitism that have ever existed...
with the technics of some low class drug pusher he made sure to turn the people he was feeding from and using to turn them into some dependent drug users(junkies) that he luxuriously catered pain killers, anti-depressants, methadones... to them until up to their ultimate deaths when their poor bodies flunked the non-stop arrival of those lethal drugs...
this guy should be walked to the next zoo and be hung by his feet and feed to the hogs ...

401. First of all......I think all that say terrible things about Anna should keep there mouth shut. She was not a bad person. I think that Howard is a murderer, and he definatly killed Daniel and her without a doubt. The tragic event that have happened are in order like a perfectly planned murder. Doesnt anyone see that? I wouldnt be surprized if he doesnt take the baby and kill himself along with the baby the closer it gets to him realizing that he is going to have to let her go when the paternity test comes up on the 20th. I think that these judges are idiots dragging this out. They should order the paternity test now!. Not wait til its too late. Hello? And as far as Anna being buried, there is no question that she should be buried next to Daniel. But I dont think they should release the body to Howard!. Hello?Smarten up people!

402. I agree agree agree agree with Deborah and Wendy....HowardKStern is a KingKong size RAT!
Now I am sure Dannylynn is fed the same drugs he lavished on Daniel and Anna as to keep her baby crying at bay.... to keep her sleeping and mellow like a sweet angel so she is no trouble for him to oversee.....
I wouldnt pass that to his technics when he wants to quiet people does he know how to! Just open the fridge and lace some methadone in that milk bottle.....
with his bad theatrical village theater.....who is that naive to believe his square ball jazz.....his lurid crimes are blatantly obvious to anyone with half a brain in their skulls.
it is NOW while he is away from Danylynn that the DNA test should be done
and resolve ...so the Bahamiam police corps can go in that villa (which belongs to????why the hell that parasite is still occupying it?)and grab that baby FAST....
and put that RAT in the CLINKER where he should rot ....until his last breath away from the society....he is a dangerous, lethal KingKong Size RAT!

403. She needs to be buried with her son. She hated her mother and the woman is a user, constantly talking trash about her daughter, who needs a mother like that. Anna wasnt perfect, who is, but she loved her son. Howard has been her friend and companion for many years and only wants to carry out what he knows Anna would want. I think he is the only human I see in all of the crazieness. She is responsible for her drug addiction, and no one else. He didnt kill her and daniel, he loved them both. he is the only person who speaks truthfully and willingly, nothing to hide. I pray that he be allowed to keep and raise Dannilynn as Anna wanted. dont let that baby go back to the sick world Anna ran away from with abuse and molestation. if she was abused in teh manner she claims anyone would be as messed up as she was... give her a break and let her rest in peace. I think she was a beautiful woman and the bad things she did to herself are a result of her childhood. Birkhead is an ass to be taking her to court after the death of her son... he is responsible for her stress and death as much as anyone. Clearly he doesnt have enough of a heart to let her grieve and he is trying to raise her child? doesnt seem like a good idea.

404. This is ridiculas listening to all you guys speak about this situation. Anna and her mother may not have been speaking but that is still her mother for gods sake. Her mother should have whatever legal rights to her daughters body that any husband or child should. She wand Stern wer not married. That beautiful baby was conceived bye Larry. Look at the pictures of the baby with Sterns ugly self. Look at Larry. That is his daughter and what Anna was doing to him was wrong and no one should have to go through this. A D.N.A test should be ordered and Stern is obviously scared because he won't take the test. Stern if you read this take the test and find someone else to have a baby with cause you know in your heart she is not your baby. Larry deserves to hold her if she is his whaich she looks just like him.

405. I am so distraught over the death of Anna Nicole. Our country has become a cold infested pack of thieves and exploiters. A human that only wanted to be loved and noticed and validated has been used(who knows for what) by her lovers with the exception of a very few. I think HKS made porn and that is why she was kept away from others that loved her and that is why he stayed with her all this time. I am sickened by his actions with the child. He knows very well he is not the father, so for him to puff up like he is is absolutely deplorable. I pray Anna's mother or Larry Birkhead gets the baby and she gets a better life than Anna got. Can we not love others as we would like to be loved?
