Celebrity Justice
Med. Examiner: Anna Deteriorating Faster Than Usual

In a stunning development in court, Broward County Medical Examiner Joshua Perper telephoned the court to tell the judge that the body of Anna Nicole Smith is deteriorating faster than normal, according to people who did the embalming on Saturday. As such, the body needs to be examined this week, rather than within the two weeks that had been stipulated before.

Sitting on the stand, Howard K. Stern started to sob loudly when he heard the news.

46. Cremate the drug-addicted bimbo whore and give her ashes to Koward Stern to snort while he sits on death row.

47. For god's sake bury the poor girl. Her mother isn't doing this because she says she loves her, or she wants the family together. Nicole lived in the bahamas because she wanted to. Howard has had a very hard time I am sure trying to help her cope with all of these things going on in her life, he was with her even if only by friendship over 10 years. Let her be buried in the bahamas with her son, who she missed so much and she couldn't go on without.

48. As much as I did look up to the woman for her curves, I can not believe PLASTIC is not living up to it's description!

The woman was beautiful, (although I hated her teeth when she smiled wide) but you have to admit she had a great action figure body and I just feel bad for her "legacy".

Did she really love that baby girl as much as Daniel? I think her thoughts were totally clouded by her despair over Daniel and I don't think Dannielynn got the same love and that is not ANS fault.

Anyway, I get shivers after reading her body is degrading faster than they thought! ugh! :)

49. Howard covered his face but there was no sobbing and he was dry eyed when he raised his head. I love the Will that they were submitting as her wishes stated No Future Children could inherit, which they NOW say is a Mistake! If it was signed as fact, then Danielynn gets ZERO which means all the fighting over the baby for money alone would be worthless as Anna's last Will states only Danny and NO FUTURE CHILDREN! That's a Bombshell!

50. Do the lawyers want to look at what Howard is doing. Old Hollywood trick...Stick your thumbs in your eyes to cause tears so it looks like you are disturbed and praying. Please Howard, your plan is falling apart. Why doesnt he offer a DNA test in exchange for Anna's body....Oh that's right , You're not the daddy! SURPRISE!

51. By the rate the judge is going, there will be nothing left of Anna to bury. This could have been over with today. Did everyone not see the video she said she didn't want anything to do with her mother? Please, let's get this over with and have her buried next to her son and move on. This Judge is a fruit cake that just likes to here himself talk. UGH!

52. I think the judge is enjoying the lime light so much that he'll drag this on as long as he can. this is just getting ridiculous! the mother should go back to where she's been for the last however many years..and let the Anna rest now...

53. I agree, she needs to be buried next to her son in the Bahamas. It was what she wanted it has nothing to do with Larry Birkhead or her mother. I bet no matter what decision is made there will be a appeal filed. I just dont get if her mother cared so much then why wont she bury her with her son like she wanted.Maybe its just a front so she can start to challenge the will and get some moolah.

54. Who cares what they do with the flippin body. Here's an answer: Cremate her and divy up the ashes (like they did Marshall's body, her "beloved" husband) one half to Stern and one half to her mother. Stern can put clown paint on his urn and videotape it to make money. Ole Vergie can open up a shrine in back of her trailer and charge $1.00 admission for viewing of her urn. They could each get a silicone implant to go with their ashes (I'm not sure if they will burn completely).

She was a junkie ex-stripper who would do anything (and anyone) to make a buck! Do you people care as much about the ex-stripper who OD'ed last night in Queens?

There isn't any money either people. THERE IS NO MONEY!!! These people couldn't even make their "lease/purchase" payment on that condo down in the Bahamas (I'm sure she was set up to screw someone to get the yacht they were after). All the Supreme Court ruling did was open up the legal battle to start all over again in Texas. Do you honestly see anyone in this whole circus pretending to represent her interests that has what it takes to go up against the Marshalls?

I do agree that the best thing that could happen for that little baby girl is to go to California with Birkhead and be raised in a trailer with a view of the 105 Freeway. I don't think they will ever determine who that little girls' is. I think it could have been 1 of about 100 guys she was "doing" that year.

Posted at 5:05PM on Feb 20th 2007 by She was no different than any other former stripper still trying to make money off her body at almost 40

55. I was waiting for someone to ask Howard K Stern how much they got paid from ET for that Mommy Dearest interview. He wasn't in love with ANS, he was in love with the celebrity and the money.

56.
Is Howard K. Stern A Murderer?

57. How in the world could they even debate this? Anna has let the world know that she wanted nothing more to do with that fat, sloppy, greedy mother of hers. Bury here with her son for crying out loud. The judge should tell her mother to go try to get rich somewhere else. Let her be dead!

58. The ONLY reason HK$ seemed "concerned" is because it is
going to throw
a monkey wrench in his TrimSpa/Funeral plans.
He ain't gonna be able to make money off that. LOL

BTW The camera was on HK$ not Birkhead or Virgie wonder how they reacted...hmmm

59. I watched the proceedings and at no time did Howard sob loudly while the medical examiner was on the phone. It seems to me (and I am no legal expert by any means) that the judge is exceeding the scope of the what they are there for and that is to determine what Anna's wishes were in reference to her final resting place. I mean, sheesh, the judge seems to be performing for the camera.

I agree with #9, it is all about the baby at this point. Get Anna buried ASAP!!!

60. MOM VIRGIE JUST LIED ON THE STAND. THERE WAS JUST A SHOW ON DOCUMENTING ANNA'S LIFE. SHE OVERDOSED ON PRESCRIPTION DRUGS AND WAS HOSPITALIZED IN TEXAS BEFORE SHE EVEN MET STERN.

THAT LYING B!TCH NEEDS TO GO BACK TO TEXAS AND STOP BEING A GOLD DIGGER.

LOOK BACK ON THE HOWARD MARSHALL TESTIMONY... SHE SAID ON THE STAND BACK THEN THAT SHE HATED HER MOTHER.
